Restaurants near East Channel Bridge

We have Feb 14 dinner. Pre-fixed menu of 3 dishes and a dessert. The crab cakes were fantastic. So were salads. The steak was done perfectly as I requested (med rare). We also had wine pairing, which might be something I'd skip in retrospect. The wine was fine. It's just a tad too much of it. For two, it turned $500 including tips. Finally, it was very busy on Feb 14 so we had to wait a little. Not an issue though.

The swordfish was amazing. Service was excellent. The pinapple upside-down cheesecake was so delicious I was sorry that I was too full to finish it. We ordered the Dungeness crab bisque. Our server warned us that it was rich. No joke. Yummy, but you could eat it with a fork. Could only eat a bit to save room for diner. But the swordfish *chefs kiss*!

We spent around $50 per person, it was busy because it was Valentines but the service was exception regardless!! Super kind servers and delicious food and drinks! We love coming here for date night, but when we come for birthdays or special events they always make it special. Joci (I hope I’m spelling that right) was our server and was so kind and attentive!

La Mar is quickly becoming one of our favorite places. It is a cuisine that is new to us so every dish is an adventure. We've loved everything we've tasted! The only thing better than the food is the warm, welcoming service from everyone who works there. Most recently, we had a birthday/Valentine's dinner that was fabulous! The whole restaurant was warmed by candlelight and rose petals. The special menu had terrific options to choose from. I was particularly taken the starters - my Ceviche Apaltado, halibut in leeks with avocado, sweet potatoes and more. My husband had the Crab Causa, a delightful Dungeness crab salad with whipped purple potatoes plus. Both dishes were beautiful to see and delicious to taste. For our main course, I had the fabulous Pulpo Anticuchero -- grilled octopus and my husband enjoyed Lomo Saltado - tenderloin deliciously prepared. For desert, nobody beats the amazing chocolate cake at La Mar! In every way, La Mar is a treasure.

The highest quality restaurant I have been to in many years. Unbelievable in every aspect. Business meetings, celebrations, any event, this is the restaurant to go to
