- LLizaSan Francisco Bay Area •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoReally wonderful place and meal for a post Valentine's celebration.We tried several small plates; crab beignets, deviled eggs, the mezzo platter and a beet & kale salad. Each was very well prepared. Our final dish was the dungeness crab pasta. It had a nice flavor but it didn't have much crab in it. Also we each had a Jack Frost cocktail, with and without alcohol and both were delicious.. We'll definitely go back again!More infoRevival Bar+KitchenPrice: Expensive• Californian• Berkeley•4.4

- DDeanneSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoOne of our favorite spots, we introduced good friends to La Marcha and no one was disappointed. The service was friendly and we were well cared for. Our table request was honored. The food was excellent. We appreciate the menu offers several options for paella, including more than one that is pork-free. So we ordered two to share along with a selection of tapas. We missed the orange olive cake, which was not on the menu that evening and is one of our favorites, but the churros were enjoyed. Another great experience at La Marcha!More infoLa MarchaPrice: Expensive• Spanish• Berkeley•4.6
