Michelin-starred Mediterranean tasting menus with cocktails
"The beverage leader advocates separating awards by spirits, nonalcoholic, beer, and wine categories to better represent the diversity of drink programs and give beverages the same granular recognition chefs receive." - Sam Nelson
"Nominated for Outstanding Wine and Other Beverages Program at the 2025 James Beard Awards." - Courtney E. Smith
"Transport yourself to the Mediterranean at this Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant under the expert guidance of Chef Felipe Riccio and Master Sommelier June Rodil. Every season, the restaurant reinvents itself as it answers the question “What does the Mediterranean mean?” with a six- or nine-course progression that explores a single region’s history, ingredients, and traditions. Each meal begins with snacks and sips in the lounge, an intimate space that fuses sophistication and comfort. The diners then proceed to the dining room, where a wall-mounted, landscape-like wool tapestry serves as a focal point. A 2025 James Beard Awards semi-finalist for the Outstanding Beverage Program category, March elevates its experience with a thoughtfully curated wine list." - Brianna Griff
"People dine at March for the same reason they go yachting in Monaco or get floor seats to watch Beyoncé. Because the experience is worth the balance on your monthly credit card statement. The tasting menu changes every six months, and is a dissertation on the season’s Mediterranean region. Devote the first half hour to taking in the glow of Montrose restaurant’s sun-soaked lounge, housemade aperitif in hand, while servers wax poetic about silky uni tomaquets. After a round of bar snacks, the rest of the meal is spent in the main dining room—complete with front-row views of the kitchen—for a $185 six or $245 nine-course dinner. Dinner here has to be worked into your budget, but it’s worth it for your newfound escalavida preference and photos you can show to your friends like you’re back from a five-star vacation. Reservations at March open 60 days in advance. Slots in the middle part of the evening get snatched up quickly, especially within the first couple of weeks. If you want to go a.s.a.p., plan to start dinner around 9pm and be there well into the night. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"This Mediterranean tasting menu restaurant has a beguiling yet simplistic elegance. A tapestry covering almost the entire back wall is one of the restaurant’s main focal points. Dishes arrive on tiled plates with patterns that alternate for each course, while drinks are served in vintage glassware. The private dining area boasts a lush ceiling installation, which depicts a dense, green landscape that alludes to March’s backstory as an area of land on the border between two territories, a frontier between realms, and a connection between the earth and food." - Marcy de Luna
