Excellent tapas! Fried chicken sandwich and house made potato chips were excellent!

La Marcha is one of our fave restaurants in the east bay. All of the dishes are packed full of flavor. We like to order a few tapas and a paella and take the leftover paella home to enjoy the next day. It's a fun date night or dinner with friends!

The tapas were excellent, the service was great (they accommodated us adding one more person to our reservation last minute), and they had a guitarist playing Spanish flamenco music which was a nice touch. Minus a star because our paella mixta was very burnt at the bottom of the pan when they brought it out to us. Paella usually has a nice, crunchy layer from being cooked in the flat pan, but not burnt. Also, they didn't have quite a few menu items (drinks, tapas, entrees and dessert) but they were still listed on the menu.

I have to start off by saying I feel sorry for the chefs. This review is not reflective of the food. We went out for an anniversary dinner, planned way ahead, and were told when we showed up for our 8 o'clock reservation at 7:45 that we would have to wait two hours and that we might not get in. What is the point of a reservation! They didn't even try to compensate us or feel remorseful in anyway. It was 8:30 by the time we left and couldn't get in anywhere else. Will not go back even though the food smelled great.

Had an excellent dinner here. All the food and the wait staff was excellent. The only complaints are that it can get hot and loud during peak times.

The food and service was good. The music and noise level were a little too loud for us. We had to shout to hear each other. We were there on a Saturday night and that might be why.

We enjoyed our meal very much, as did our guests. The room is very noisy for people with hearing aids, but being seated in the window helped a lot. Both the staff and we were confused by the $20 reservation fee from Open Table. They weren't aware of it, and it seems a bit rude. We were advised to just call the restaurant directly next time. And hope our money will be refunded.

Food was good. Did not care much for the service we got. We (group of 5 adults) were seated in the most cramped space they could possibly have. Basically slammed 2 tables (for 2) together and put another chair at the end. We were cramped and didn't have room to put our water glasses down without shoving the next person. Attention by the wait staff was poor, kept waiting to order additional items. I doubt I would go there again. Food was good, experience... Not so much.
We went here for lunch on a Friday. I made reservations, but didn't seem to need them - only a few tables were occupied. Nice, high ceilinged place with a charming feel. We sat at a table next to the window, great spot. The food is incredibly good! Not one thing was bad! - The Bruselas (Brussels sprouts) were very crunchy, good flavor - The Bravas were my favorite - love the spicy sauce with them - The Bimi (grilled broccolini) was very tasty. Veg was not overcooked! - The Croquetas de Champinones (mushroom and manchego fritters) were tasty. They weren't what I envisioned though. These were like a paste, fried. Excellent job on frying - very light and crunchy. - The Albondiga Sub was good. Like the bollilo roll. Meatballs were a good size without being too large to eat. They were tender, so they stayed in the sandwich when you bit into it (didn't squeeze out). Sauce was not overly spicy. - The Tuna sub was good, according to the diner. - The Rucula salad was very good. - My Pollo Bravo sandwich was excellent! The fried chicken piece was fried perfectly, wasn't dry. The slaw was excellent. I was really impressed that the bun had been grilled/toasted. This kept the slaw from making the sandwich mushy. Great job!

They gave us a seriously SMALL of calamari which was undercooked btw. For $15 for barely enough for one person, I expected more,not to mention the aoli which seemed like it gone bad. This isn’t the first time it happened for take out.

Amazing, the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. The service is great and the employees are very kind and welcoming. The prices are not too expensive and are a great value for the quality. Highly recommended

Irresponsible and unreliable takeout. Mixed up my order with someone else's order, which I promptly refused
Just ok
