   Great food, the service could have been more attentive. The value to price is ok, but it is quite pricey.

   La Mar continues to set the gold standard for exceptional dining. The location is vibrant, the service impeccable, and the food nothing short of extraordinary. For our party of five, we indulged in an incredible array of dishes: - Pulpo Anticuchero - Anticuchos - Ceviche Tasting - Planchada a la Mar - Grilled Salmon - Chicharrón de Calamar - La Mar Pulpo - Tomahawk 40oz All paired perfectly with the refreshing Kola and Chicha Morada. This wasn’t the first visit for some of us, but once again, La Mar exceeded expectations. The speed and quality of service were remarkable, making the experience seamless and enjoyable. What truly sets La Mar apart is its ability to combine bold, authentic flavors with a modern touch, creating a dining experience that’s both comforting and memorable. From the tender, flavorful seafood to the perfectly grilled Tomahawk steak, every dish was a masterpiece. La Mar is more than just a meal—it’s an experience that leaves you planning your next visit before you’ve even finished.

    Lovely restaurant with Bay view from the main dining room. No valet parking but metered street parking was possible with some walk. We ordered a bottle of a white Albariño wine at the recommendation of our server. It was excellent and a perfect accompaniment to a mostly fish oriented meal. We started with the combo ceviche of 3 ceviches. Ceviche is the signature Peruvian dish and we had high expectations. The three ceviches were all tasty but the portions were very small. For $48 we expected at least a sufficient amount to provide a reasonable appetizer for four people. It was not. Everyone else appeared to enjoy their main course. I ordered the halibut. Again a modest portion but properly cooked with a nice salsa. It was accompanied by a gray brown bean paste with no particular flavor. As a larger male, I was left still hungry. I ordered the tropical tapioca dessert to fill the void. It was a small dish of standard tapioca with a little fruit and a dollop of a fruit sorbet. Uninspired. My friend's chocolate/passion fruit bombe appeared much more interesting. Perhaps I just ordered some of the weaker items on the extensive menu. But overall I was somewhat disappointed. For Over $100 per person, it was not the value it should have been.
