Gourmet Marché — Restaurant in Higüey

This is our favorite restaurant on the Royalton property. The quality and selection of the food here it’s so good that we can literally eat here three meals a day and without getting tired of it.

On the daily base, they have different themes throughout the week for dinner . For example, they have Asian nights which they will serve sushi and sashimi and fried rice, spring roll, etc.. for Mexican night they will have tacos, Mexican soups, and more.

Of course our favorite night ever is the Christmas Eve dinner . They turn the entire buffet into a Christmas Wonderland with extensive spread of seafood meat and sweets.

The atmosphere is standard across the Royalton properties, which is bright, open and inviting .

However, the services are different from property to properties . The Marché in Cancun have better services compared to the one in Punta Cana., and the main reason is due to the limited English understanding capability here. Most of the servers in Punta Cana they don’t even understand basics request in English.

Since Punta Cana it is starting to develop more with the intention to expand their tourism I will like to recommend Royalton management to train up on staff with English...

We paid so much money to be here for a week and the service is terrible. The men that are chef's in this place are so wonderful and respectful. Something needs to be done because I want to speak to the owner of this place. To everyone are coming to this place and eat. The servers are wonderful, the men chef's are wonderful but the female chef's needs get trained properly for customers service and needs to get trained for interpersonal skills, proper etiquette skills and learn to treat people equally. This should not happen and then they ask for tips like they are doing you a favor. For this, I am very...

At Gourmet Marche — I would not eat at this restaurant due to the behaviour of the waiter who was serving us! As a Black person vacationing in a predominantly Black country, you can see the disparity with how they treat White tourists compared to us. I was embarrassed by the waiter that I needed to pay because I did not have a Diamond wrist band. We already spoke to the host that we would pay the cost of 49 US to eat. However, one of the waiter ran up to me while I was in line to tell me that I needed to pay before I can eat in front of everyone. I got upset and told her she was being discriminatory towards me and she didn’t have to speak to me like that! I know my dollar is minute but I have control over where I...
