Marques

Marques is a Southern, Cajun, and Creole restaurant on East Market Street in Akron. Its signature dishes include gumbo, blackened fish, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, and étouffée, along with chicken salads, buffalo wings, and fried chicken and fried fish dinners.

The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner Tuesday through Sunday, with the kitchen closing earlier on some nights, so it is worth calling ahead late in the evening. Orders should be placed at least 20 minutes before the kitchen closes. Catering and reservations are also offered.
