Uncovering the Saint Marc Story
The Saint Marc journey began with a simple but profound revelation: that the act of dining should be an immersive, transformative experience, transporting us from the everyday into the realm of the extraordinary. It was this vision that inspired the founders to embark on a quest to redefine the boundaries of what a restaurant could be.
Their travels took them on a winding odyssey across the globe, from the sun-drenched coasts of California to the impenetrable jungles of Mexico, the ever-higher passes of the Andes Mountains, and the severe alpine forests of Patagonia. Along the way, they immersed themselves in local cultures, explored unique culinary traditions, and forged relationships with passionate producers, artisans, and visionaries.
It was this spirit of exploration and discovery that would become the driving force behind Saint Marc’s relentless pursuit of culinary excellence. By eschewing comfort and convention, the team was able to uncover a vast, untapped well of inspiration, ushering in a new era of dining that celebrated the boundless possibilities of food, service, and ambiance.

I found myself drawn to the Oaxacan Mole Enchiladas, a harmonious symphony of bold, earthy flavors that transported me to the lush, tropical regions of Mexico. The Argentinian Asado Platter, with its tender, wood-fired meats and vibrant chimichurri, evoked the rugged grandeur of the Patagonian landscape.
But it was the Tuscan Kale Salad that truly piqued my curiosity. As I savored each bite, I could almost feel the warmth of the Tuscan sun and the gentle breeze caressing the olive groves.
