⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely wonderful experience. Every dish we ordered was delicious, but the lobster was truly magical-perfectly cooked, rich, and full of flavor. You can really feel the quality and care in every plate. I also really appreciated how many gluten-free options are available on the menu-it’s a great place for anyone who avoids gluten without having to compromise on taste and gluten-free pasta!!! Special thanks to Daniel, who took amazing care of us. The service was attentive, warm, and professional, making the whole evening feel effortless and special. A fantastic dining experience-we will definitely be back.

Wonderful visit and delicious food. We didn’t have to wait too long but had a resy in advance. We got a great table and enjoyed the caviar bruschetta, parpadelle pasta and branzino. We ordered the homemade butter and gluten free bread and it was incredible! The Marea martini is lovely as well.

My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary here and it was an amazing experience. We sat outside and had the team of Salvatore and Margot taking care of us. We were given 5 star attention throughout the evening, helping us make Great suggestions on wine and food choices (we're gluten free--they have MANY options to choose from). The anti-pasta selection was perfect and our pasta dishes so incredibly delicious. Thank you for the complimentary tiramisu! Darnelle, you have an exceptional staff, but I know that starts from the top down, so kudos to you! We can't wait to come back to see our friends. Grazie Mille!

Reservation for two on a Sunday night to celebrate my 40th birthday. Marea had always been on my NYC bucket list, so was excited to kick off the first night of our trip at this 1-star Michelin restaurant on Central Park. Overall, I was very pleased that I picked Marea to celebrate my 40th; food was spectacular but service seemed a bit ‘off’ for a Michelin-starred restaurant. Food Lineup: Started with Hamachi Crudo - beautiful presentation and incredible flavor *** For appetizer we had the Astice (lobster, burrata, and eggplant) - another winner *** Instead of a meat dish, we opted for two pastas. My wife has a gluten allergy so we substituted the GF pasta in both: -Fusili - Marea’s signature dish did not disappoint. Braised octopus with bone marrow that I can still taste today. Spectacular dish *** -Bucatini (lump crab) - this dish would be star of the night at any other Italian restaurant but up against the Fusili it didn’t stand a chance ** Tiramisu for dessert was a great way to end the meal Service: For a restaurant of this status, there were several examples where the service seemed subpar. First, the restaurant was notified ahead of time (and also when we were seated) about my wife’s gluten allergy, yet that didn’t stop the bread service with full-glutened bread. It was only after about 10min (and us asking two waitstaff) that GF bread was brought to the table. Our server was generally “OK” but didn’t write down any of our order and he had to return to the table to inquire about our pasta order because he seemingly had forgotten what we wanted. Having waited tables for many years in my younger days, this was always to be avoided (and that was at a fast-casual restaurant). Additionally, he also forgot my post-dinner espresso order and I had to remind him of the order. Aside from the above, the restaurant did recognize the birthdays of both my wife and I which was a nice touch. For those that prefer to bring your own wine, the charge for corkage was $75. We had several nice chats with the somm, although he carried our bottle to the back to open it, whereas I prefer when this is done tableside. $400 (including tax/tip) is not an everyday meal for us, but despite the service issues, I still felt as though we got our money’s worth at Marea. Would love to return next time we are in NYC.
