Edmonton’s French Bistro
🍷 The Marc | Edmonton’s French Bistro (Where Butter Meets Disappointment) 🇫🇷✨ 📍 Location: [Insert Address] (Follow the scent of browned butter and sighs of over-salted diners) 💰 Price Range: (50-120 per person) 🌟 Rating: 3.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐ (Appetizers: 4/5 🥩, Mains: 3/5 🦆, Value: 2/5 💸) 🥖 WHY THIS PLACE DIVIDES OPINIONS • Parisian Pretensions – White tablecloths but inconsistent execution 🍽️ • Butter Overload – Every dish seems to swim in it (even the water?) 🧈 • Wine Roulette – Some bottles sing, others scream vinegar 🍷 🍽️ COURSE BY COURSE BREAKDOWN ✅ HIGHLIGHTS (Order These) 🥩 Beef Tartare ($18) – Hand-chopped with cornichons + quail egg 🍗 Duck Confit ($34) – Crispy skin (ask for medium-rare) 🧀 Cheese Board ($24) – Stinky French blues + walnut bread ⚠️ LOWLIGHTS (Avoid These) 🦆 Magret de Canard ($38) – Overcooked and gamey 🍫 Chocolate Fondant ($14) – Salt-spiked cream ruins it 🍷 DRINK SAVIORS ✔️ Kir Royale ($16) – Crème de cassis + champagne ✔️ Sancerre ($18/glass) – Crisp enough to cut the butter 💸 PRICEY REGRETS • $98 Steak Frites – Good meat, but sauce like the Dead Sea • $12 Espresso – Served with a side of judgment 📌 FINAL VERDICT ✅ Go For: Date night ambiance, decent apps, Instagrammable cheese ❌ Skip If: You want consistent quality or value 💬 Our Take: “The beef marrow? Rich, unctuous, glorious. The duck? We debated if it was poultry or jerky.” P.S. Their off-menu foie gras ($42) is weekend-only – call 48h ahead. #EdmontonEats #FrenchBistro #Overpriced #DateNight #ButterOverload
