This was our first time dining at mar'sel. This higher-end restaurant delivers a memorable dining experience. The service throughout the restaurant was excellent, but our main server Chris was simply exceptional. Thanks Chris!
This mar'sel dinner added to our overall enjoyment while staying at Terranea Resort during Christmas week.
Our favorite dishes that we rated 5⭐️ were the following. ~Le Petit Barachois oysters - sweet, delicious, and not briny. (Cali-grown) ~Wagyu stuffed white truffle ravioli ~Assorted breads & spreads

Loved our time at Mar'sel Restaurant! The staff were so nice and attentive. Complete Top Notch Service. We were celebrating our Wedding Anniversary and they made it so incredibly special. The setting and ambiance is so special!! We even got a hand written special note from one of the servers that e will always cherish! And the food was Amazing too!
Amanda
Lovely experience. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Servers were attentive and friendly, very professional but we also had lovely chats with Angus, very cool and charming guy! They gave us a dessert on the house which was very sweet of them. I would definitely come again for special occasions and our 1 year anniversary!

Unfortunately, we had a reservation for outside at 7:15. When we checked in, they said our table wasn't ready. So we happily sat at the bar and had a drink. At 7:45, we were finally sat, but were put inside. It was at least 15 minutes before we were acknowledged at our table. We then ordered food, which took a long time to receive (it was a busy Saturday night, so I get it, but why does it take 20+ minutes to get a bread basket?). I've enjoyed the cacio e Pepe pasta before and last night was beyond disappointing. Terranea is honestly one of the best places I've been which is why we come back, but last night's experience was awful. I hope it was just an off night.

An amazing experience, Beautiful view, delicious food, excellent service made so by our extremely helpful and knowledgeable server Steven. I look forward to my next visit.
Andrea
Absolutely stunning restaurant for a social occasion or romantic date night. Food was excellent, with the grilled octopus as a stand out appetizer and steak being a favorite as an entree. Magical place for magical moments!

Incredible service mediocre food. The highlight was the jazz singer. No vegetarian options for the main dish
One of our favorite restaurants anywhere in so cal! Food, service, atmosphere, decor--they've done it all superbly. We come here often and the entire staff always says hello and asks how we're doing, how the kids are, etc. They truly treat us like family. From the host to the general manager, they could not be nicer and more capable people. It's always a pleasure to come here. Highly recommend.

This used to be our go to high end restaurant for celebrations but it keeps getting just a little worse every time. The food is still good but not as good and the prices just keep going up. The portions have always been a little small but now they seem smaller than ever. The asparagus tips small plate was $20 and was basically 2 bites. The pasta dish was 6-8 ribbons of pasta. The service this time was also the worst we've ever had. Everyone was very nice, but slow. They forgot our asparagus small plate and got our dessert wrong.
