Marcha Cocina

I live in the les. This is the best brunch place I’ve been to out of all the great options out there. They have awesome drink specials but On top of that the appetizers and brunch is like just mouth watering. I get the Benedict and the croquettes which is my favorite. The sangrias are the best, they seriously can hook a sangria up.

My favorite place! Modern tapas and A fusion of Latin American food brought & introduced to lower east side. The food is amazing! The drinks are amazing and best of all the atmosphere is really nice (the staff is great) Kid Friendly environment ! My favorite tapas dish is the piggyback dates, The Gambas al Ajillo, the croquetas and of course the calamari. As for the main dish I would say the paella con langosta, it is amazing hands down. Overall It’s a chill place where you able to sit, talk and eat without feeling overwhelmed! I definitely recommend it!

My favorite place to eat and drink in the Lower East Side hands down! The staff is super nice and professional. They give you this amazing tasting shot named «Donkey Sauce,» upon arrival. I recommend the «Churrasco» (Skirt steak) as your main course and my go to drink is the super tasty Sangria! As an appetizer I really enjoyed the «piggyback dates.“Can’t tell you enough about this place, you’d have to come and try it yourself! Tell them James sent you! :-)

Love the vibes and the sangria! Game changing location in the neighborhood
You can even watch sports while listening to a combination of Justin bieber, Latin music, and edm. Can you name another location that offers such a variety?
And the 12 dollar tapas and sangria deal? Forget about it!
Five stars

It is a MUST that I speak in regards to this restaurant…
I went to brunch last Sunday with a few of my girlfriends to celebrate a friend’s birthday. It was like a breath of fresh air to experience that type of brunch. It was not empty nor super crowded, it was very chill where you can hear your conversations with your friend and also enjoy the music (idk about anyone else, but I enjoy a nice sophisticated brunch rather then going to a brunch where it’s pretty much a club scene on a Sunday morning). The quality of service was superb; wouldn’t you love to go to a place where the server knows what he is talking about? YES? This is the place!
I decided to go with the Egg Benedict (recommended by the server) with ham, and my drink for the day was Passion fruit Mimosa. The food is to die for, as an appetizer I had meatballs with bread on the side (I posted a picture up), OMG that was heaven! My friend order the French toast and she was bragging of how good they were that I had to try it… she was not lying, the French toast was AMAZING. Ok, so I tried the meatballs, I tried the egg Benedict and I tried the French toast, good thing I am skinny lol.
My drink was the passion fruit mimosa, but I wanted to also try the mango mojito. Mojitos to me are tricky; I do not think everyone knows how to make a good mojito, but this place new the science behind it. It was the perfect measurements because it was so good to have!
My overall experience was very congenial, I loved the environment and the friendly staff and most of all the food and drinks are to die for. I will definitely be coming back again and ordering those amazing meatballs, It is so worth the travel!
Thank You for making that a great experience!

My friends and I came here for New Year’s Eve dinner and the food was just as aromatic and delicious as I expected. Try their garlic shrimp and churrasco, with red or white sangria! Mm yes!

Food was excellent, the $ 12 deal for sangria+tapas was totally worth it! I was hesitant at first because I was scared the tapas portion would be too small, but it was a pretty large tapas portion and completely filled me up. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would come again!

I finally made it to Marcha Cocina Bar and I absolutely LOVED IT! The coconut and pineapple mojito is to die for and you will find the best salads ever! I am vegan and I was able to find great and delicious meals! Parking is awesome too because they don’t have meters!

I recently visited this outstanding restaurant after trying the other location in Washington heights, and everything about it was amazing. I went for the Saturday Brunch which includes basic brunch items, but with a modern twist. I personally had the bacon Benedit. I was expecting an typical English muffin as a base, but surprisingly I got a hashbrown-​like potato pancake as the base, with cream cheese, bacon and a pouched egg, and the hollandaise sauce was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! That and the French toast is the reason I make the 15 block travel every Sunday, faithfully!

We went for a dinner party with friends to celebrate his promotion with the NYPD, but only joined them for drinks. Mostly because it was impossible to find parking, to include a parking lot. From what I saw the place was decent, but the space could be laid out better. Especially the bathroom!

The staff and owners are fantastic, they treat you like family and the food is deliciousI highly recommend Marcha Cocina

5 star company, 5 star food, 5 star choice! — My girlfriend and I went there on a whim because of the great reviews and lack of a wait. What a phenomenal decision. They were friendly from the moment we walked in the door and kindly showed us to our seats. We ordered beers (Ommegang) but the cocktails that people were drinking around us looked awesome as well. We ordered the friend calamari, croquettes, and a paella that was nothing shy of a work of art. Let me step back and say that I’m not generally a huge fan of seafood. Still the calamari came out first and was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. The croquettes were amazing and the paella was on point. There was nothing I didn’t enjoy and the price was great as well. I know this place is going to be popular once the word gets out. Would recommend.

Cool spot. Stopped here for a drink while waiting to meet friends. Super nice people and chill atmosphere.

I recently moved out of an apartment on Avenue C, but I wish Marcha Cocina was opened when I lived there! After spending the afternoon down the block, I went into Marcha Cocina for some dinner. The croquetas and flatbreads were delicious. They also have a super tasty sangria. The service was wonderful. We sat at the bar and the bartender was attentive and friendly. I’m looking forward to going back!

Finally!!! a near by classy place where I can go dine and drink and have a great time! I’ve tried several items from the menu… from the shrimps to the meatballs … to the patatas bravas and the shrimp/​chorizo dish that I tried just last night it was unbelievable! and let’s not forget those amazing scallops! My friends had the croquettes and the calamari and they were loving their dishes! The drinks are delicious and their signature Coconut Mojito!!! well let’s just say… Mmmm mmmm mmmm. I can’t wait to go for brunch! The service is great and the people are so nice… it makes the whole dining experience wonderful!!! This is the spot to go to!!! Thank you for coming to the LOWER EAST SIDE!!!

SO GOOD — the seared scallops and croquettes were delicious (the wild mushroom one in truffle sauce is bomb). Come here for sure!

Yesterday I had the immense pleasure of having a late lunch at Marcha. Let me start off by saying that as soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted and escorted to our table. The establishment itself is elegantly understated and after walking in we felt as if we were at home. If you go, let the bartender make you a refreshing caipirinha, which tasted amazing after walking in from the heat. The menu was amazing but we opted to do a tapas style lunch. The food was sinfully good! The #foodporn comes to mind after tasting the delicacies that were being brought from the kitchen. My ultimate favorite dishes were the dates wrapped in bacon and sprinkled with blue cheese followed closely by the mushroom croquettes and then the meatballs. OMG! You would think we were stuffed, but the food was light and very satisfying! All in all, I gave Marcha 5 stars but if I could give them more I would. I have to say that the service was AMAZING! We were treated like family which is one of the benefits of eating at this Latin owned business. Our servers were very food savvy and friendly. Did I mention that the food was PHENOMENAL!!! I am very much looking forward to going back to Marcha to try their brunch next weekend!!! Buena suerte Marcha!!! I wish you years of continued success! I left a very very very happy customer!

Love this place. My favorite is the Croquetas!!! Must come to try the food. Service is excellent. Very attentive and quick. Awesome Mimosa as well :)

I finally made it to Marcha Cocina in East Village and it met all my expectations! The coconut mojito was AMAZING so had two! The Marcha Calamari was the best I had by FAR! It was tender and not chewy like you usually get at other restaurants. The meatballs had me scrapping the sauce off my plate and the Gambas Aljillo was a little spicy but to perfection so every bite was enjoyable. I plan to go back soon and highly recommend you do too!

Service was excellent, very tasty sangria, the Gambas al Ajijo were amazing. Will be back, came here with a group of 11 people.
