Great spot great vibes. It’s hard to find a nice Spanish restaurant in this area so it was great. Vibe where nice music was good and food was great. Felt right at home.

We had such a wonderful experience at Markette! The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and has a great atmosphere. From the moment we arrived, the staff was so friendly and welcoming. Everything we ordered was delicious! We started with the fritters and Bibb salad, then had the oxtail and lamb & rice for our entrées. Everything was a 10/10. The food was flavorful, beautifully prepared, and we enjoyed every single dish. I also tried the Supafreak cocktail, which tasted really good, although it was a little light for me and had quite a bit of ice. That was honestly my only small critique of the entire evening. Between the beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, and amazing food, Markette is definitely a place we would return to. Highly recommend! ❤️

Tenjou offers delicious cooked food and truly spectacular sushi. The service staff is attentive, even on a busy night. Prices are comparable to other similar restaurants in the area; this makes the sushi items into good value for the cost.

A reliably good, busy Sunday morning vibe. Their food always delivers! The breakfast bowl and the sweet potato fries are winners.
