Service was perfect thoughtful and kind. Food was amazing ...easily compared to a Michelin star restaurant

Wonderful ambiance, and the view is incredible. The filet was fantastic, along with the whipped potatoes. It is expensive, but once in a while it is great to spoil oneself.

I made a reservation in advance and specifically requested a window seat because I was hosting guests from overseas. The restaurant opens at 4:30 PM, and we arrived earlier than the opening time. However, when seating started, several parties who arrived after us were seated before us, which already felt uncomfortable and unfair. When I asked why, I was told that they were waiting for someone in their party who was using the restroom. If that was the case, I believe the staff should have explained this to us instead of letting us feel ignored. The way we were treated felt discriminatory and unwelcoming, especially compared to how other guests were seated and prioritized. The table we were given was also disappointing. Other parties of two were seated comfortably at tables for four, but we were placed at a tight corner table, almost tucked away, which made us feel singled out. There were also issues with the wine menu. We ordered a wine listed on the menu, but were told that the listed vintage was not available and were offered a different year instead. When we tried to change to another wine, we were told that one was also unavailable, and the staff even said they didn't know why the menu hadn't been updated. We paid a high price for the meal, but the overall experience left us feeling uncomfortable and disappointed. Unfortunately, this was not the kind of experience I wanted when hosting important guests

Very disappointing. I had fond memories of The Marine Room. The menu was terribly expensive and not justified by the food. We were seated in a very noisy room.

Enjoyed a beautiful dinner celebrating a birthday. The service was outstanding, the food and drinks were delicious and presented perfectly. Everyone in the party could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed the evening! Big thanks to Kevin, Kiki, Tony and the rest of the team.

I got the Japanese wagyu and my boyfriend got the Australian wagyu. He was disappointed in his after he tried mine. Both streaks were good but there was a big difference. Good service... really good food.

Been here multiple times now! Service is always great and the waitress in the lounge recognizes you and remembers people! Highly recommend and will be back next time I’m in town!

Unsurpassed views of the coastal surf on the brink of a “king tide.” Excellent service even customized our bread to leave out the seasoning. No longer have table side Caesar salads made—too bad they if they don't reinstate this exceptional gourmet item the way it was always done before Covid! If we keep asking, maybe they will! Their menu has skipped ahead of its only small plates and fixed prices spree and is much closer to the reputation the Marine Room had enjoyed for decades. Give us the live, possibly piano, music and the Caesar table side and we could be in restaurant heaven!

Our waiter, Chris, was very attentive and and expert at describing menu items. We really appreciated the nice touches he included for our anniversary. The food presentation was gorgeous!
