Les Marchands - Santa Bárbara

Celebrated my birthday on a Monday night with my husband at Les MarchandsIt was great.

Treated terribly on my 12th year anniversary with my wife.

This place is perfectionThe challenge: not so easy to find, but worth itSo keep looking.

I went with a group for a birthday. It was the worst service any of us had ever experienced. Our waiter only took a couple of drink orders and then left for more than 20 minutes before we checked in to take the rest of the table order. For the food we had to tell him that we had to order. Then he took 4 orders, went away and didn't come back. When we got him to come back after telling several other workers we needed to complete the order, he forgot that he had taken the first orders. He finally took a few more orders and went, again not to every person at the table. It took 2 hours in total and the food came out at all different times. We were all honestly very confused about what was happening throughout our dinner.

The restaurant was too noisy and the salsa was overpowering.
