"Marea completely lived up to the hype. Incredible seafood, flawless execution, and a warm, sophisticated atmosphere. Every bite was memorable, and the service made the experience feel effortless. One of those restaurants you keep thinking about after you leave"

"We had an extremely disappointing experience here as a group of four. Our bill was almost $900 including bottles of wine, so this was not a casual or low-spend visit. Despite that, we were made to feel unwelcome towards the end of the evening. Staff began clearing our table without asking or receiving permission, while we were still seated. Shortly after, we were explicitly asked to leave because we had “overstayed,” even though no time limit had been communicated in advance. Also, they took forever to take our orders. If there is a strict seating policy, it should be made clear upfront — not enforced abruptly and rudely after guests have spent a significant amount of money. The way this was handled felt disrespectful. Being the only four brown people at the restaurant it totally felt discriminatory. For a restaurant positioning itself at this price point, the service and hospitality fell far below expectations. We won’t be returning and would not recommend this place to others looking for a welcoming dining experience. We did bring this up to the management and they seemed more interested in getting the credit card charged right away and did not offer any significant apologies. Our server ( Robert) was actually nice but his service could not make up for how the evening turned out overall."

"Marea is a solid place; consistently delightful, albeit pricey. The standout dishes for me were the Bronzino tartar and the tagliatelle (without the truffles). The grilled Bronzino and scallops were okay. I wouldn’t recommend the scampi croquette (though others in my group raved about the sardines). Our server was wonderful and intuitive as were the other main staff. Some hiccups with the support staff (e.g. repeatedly mixing up still and sparkling water, taking long to clear crumbs off the table, small things like that - but that’s okay). Overall I very much recommend and will be back"

"Elegant dining experience. Bring your credit cards! We just had dinner here. The food was good overall. The main server was good. Three separate people asked us if we wanted water before someone actually brought us water…. We ordered the duck for our main course. The server placed the rare duck in front of the wrong diner, even after we asked about cooking level. The food overall is elegant and the wine list expansive. Sort of odd Marea did not offer an amuse bouche or anything else."

"Marea exceeded expectations—from the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel truly taken care of. Attentive, warm, and professional throughout. The food was just as impressive. The seafood dishes were fresh and flavorful, but even non-seafood options like the steak and pastas were just as memorable. Dessert was a showstopper. A refined dining experience with top-tier hospitality. Highly recommend."
