Marquise Dunedin

"The service is very good and the food is exceptional. This place is a bit small in comparison to other restaurants you can choose from. However, if you have to wait it's well worth it. I have dine here on a few occasions but luckily, I never had to wait to long. The food is prepared with a lot of experience behind it, you can tell by the quality and flavor. This is a unique and special little place and is not your ordinary Mom and Pop Restaurant."

"If you want a taste of french cuisine without going farther than Dunedin this place is perfect for breakfast and lunch. Such a lovely café owned by a husband and wife chef team. We are greeted with a warm welcome even though it was close to closing time by our server, Paula. She explained that everything was made all in house by the chef. From the buttery croissants, to the shirred seafood eggs & individual quiche, everything tasted as if we were in France and that is a huge culinary compliment. Thank you so much for a fantastic lunch! We will definitely be back."

"A very nice experience. The service is quite good, the food outstanding. It's a small restaurant and you may be there longer than the normal dining experience these days.....but we found that these are positives. The Chef is outstanding, and we go there now with the TIME to savor the authentic experience, the service and the expertly prepared food."

"The place was packed when we walked in on Sunday morning. There was one waitress, who seemed extremely frazzled. She quickly apologized and said we’d have to wait. We stood at the bar for 10 minutes, without water or coffee. One of the tables got up, and as I went to sit, she told me not to, so that I didn’t get crumbs everywhere. I proceeded to wait 10 more minutes at the bar. She didn’t even attempt to clean the table. When we were finally invited to sit, the patrons at the neighboring table said it was an hour and a half for their entire service. One server and one cook. For whatever reason, they were taking online orders even though their kitchen was backed up. Four different Uber drivers came in to pick up “Blake’s order.” None of them left with anything. The waitress was not very kind at all. Her reply to people complaining about the wait was “it’s a French restaurant. We’re laid back. Everyone has to wait.” She also had no problem complaining to us about another table in the restaurant. This French cafe gave us our latte/capuccino in pint glasses, which were incredibly sweet. The glasses were then refilled with regular coffee, which was very difficult to handle properly since the glasses themselves became very hot. The food itself, while lacking in presentation and creativity, was spectacular. If I could ensure that my meal would make it to me, I would always order it online and skip the dining experience entirely."

"You will be in love from the first visit, the authentic French food is delicious, all the dishes we have tried are equally exquisite. But I can't hide that it's the best croasant you'll ever taste. The comfortable and familiar atmosphere, like having breakfast with the family, as well as the attention of the staff and the chef from day 1, very attentive and familiar. Without a doubt, it is a jewel that you cannot miss if you visit or live in the area. This is the inevitable place that you will always want to visit."
