Love Bar Mar but two areas of constructive criticism. The menu choices keep shrinking. A little more choice of mains, in particular, would be appreciated. And service was a little slow.

Food was excellent. And the service and atmosphere were great. Always a good crowd at lunch and dinner. They also have valet parking after 4, so that is key in that area.
