User review by joanned_02149 – I must say that I agree with most of the reviews for Mare. Although I love the friendly lady with the short hair and funky eyeglasses that floats around there, I do not think that I will be going back there again anytime soon. Even with 8:00 reservations, we were the last table seated around 9:30 or so. After placing our orders we waited a while for our appetizers - give me a break! Fifteen dollars for two stuffed zucchini blossoms? I understand organic is expensive but come on! After that we w... read more

ICK ICK ICK – What I liked: Excellent white chocolate martini. The caesar salad with shrimp is very good. The service was attentive and thorough. The location was easy to get to, and I liked the corner spot. What I didn't: Tables are right on top of each other (and the people next to us kept butting into our conversation!). The portions are small, especially for the price. I had the parrechi (sp?)...the crab meatballs tasted like they had shells in it. Ick. Overall, I was disappointed...I never make it to the north end, and ... read more

Hungry? Keep Walking – The "food" was all so very precious. We thought maybe they were joking. They weren't. Fortunately this trendy little fishbowl is close enough to enough places where you can actually eat. You'll spend a lot here, get very little, and listen to your stomach growl.

Disappointment – I was very excited to try Mare after many enjoyable meals at Bricco, but have to say I was extremely disappointed with the experience. I liked the contemporary decor and overall atmosphere, but that is all. The service was below average; our waiter was not helpful and even arrogant. I ordered a seafood risotto which was, if I recall, $24, and the portion was the smallest I've ever been served, bar none. There were two girls sitting at a parallel table that actually laughed at me. I eat out very often and hav... read more

Very Good – I was very excited to try this new restaurant, was pleased that my party was seated promptly, staff very helpful in making recommendations and was attentive. Food costly, but excellent, had the special tuna with eggplant, fabulous, desert was even better, blueberry crepe, can't say enough nice things, would definitely go again, very romantic and enjoyable.

User review by ouchita – Was excited to try Mare last week, despite the objections of a friend who recently went and gave it a thumbs down. Went with 5 friends last week and couldn't have been more disappointed. Atmosphere was pretty cool, service was fine, but food was terrible, and way overpriced - some entrees up to $40. I know they are going for some organic feel for the food but seafood antipasta just didn't work. A few of the people liked their food, but no one was blown away and my seafood stew was nothing special at ... read more
