• Mediterranean • Montrose
Booked 6 times today
In the heart of Houston’s Montrose neighborhood, MARCH is an intimate Mediterranean restaurant from Chef Felipe Riccio. Serving a course tasting menu, we study the gastronomy, history, and cultures of the region to answer the question:“What is Mediterranean cuisine?”After many years of personal and professional exploration of the Mediterranean, Felipe has brought this spirit of exploration back to his hometown.The word ‘MARCH’ signifies an area of land on the border between two territories; a frontier between realms. The menu is the team’s love letter to the Mediterranean where we will explore the unique, layered evolution of its many connected cuisines, with beverage pairings/selections artfully curated by partner and Master Sommelier, June Rodil.Chef de Cuisine: Chris DaviesExecutive Pastry Chef: Micaela VictoriaGeneral Manager: Gabriel FontenierWine Director: Anthony SalazarGoodnight Hospitality Partners: Bailey & Peter McCarthy, Felipe Riccio, June Rodil

"One of the Best New Restaurants in Houston."Culture MapROMA, an Italian eatery in Rice Village, is Houston's premier Italian restaurant, known for its homemade traditional pastas, its creative contemporary Italian cuisine, and its fine wine program.ROMA was called one of "Houston's Best New Restaurants" by CultureMap when it first opened in 2019. And Houstonia magazine has called it one of their editors' favorite Italian restaurants in the city.In 2020, ROMA launched what would become one of the city's most successful virtual wine dinner programs, often "hosting" more than 80 guests weekly in their homes as Italian winemakers joined from Italy.That has inspired Shanon Scott to take his wine program to the next level. "Our goal is to make ROMA one of Houston's top wine destinations by the end of 2021," says Shanon.Look out for new and regularly occurring wine tastings, wine dinners, and other wine and food events at ROMA!

    Everything was amazing. The service was good but not exceptional. We don't have any complaints at all and WILL be back very soon. Must try: Croquetas, Empanadillas, Paellas (duck and fig was exquisite, as was Valencia), Huevo Volador, and Churros. The drinks were top notch, too. The environment is PERFECT- so fun. A great meal and experience!

    Absolutely superb service and ambience. The food was extremely well done and although a couple things were not to my liking, it was simply because I don’t like that particular food not because of any failure on the part of the restaurant. This could not have been a better experience!

    We were there for an anniversary meal. It was quiet enough for us to talk without raising our voices. Our waiter was excellent and made sure we got what we needed. They had some nice wines at very reasonable prices, and the food was excellent. We will be back.
