Reviews
The place in the Fisherman’s Village in Marina Del Rey. Parking is easy, but for a fee. It is set in the middle of the Village. The Village itself is old now, but there are still a few great places to eat and the walk along the water is lovely. The stores for the most part are now closed and the place needs to be remolded to bring back the tourist crowd, but there is other things to do there. It is never too hot since it is right next to the Marina with boats and sea lions and the smell of the sea.
La Marina is super cute. You can dine inside or out. The inside is super clean. It is however very loud and it was not crowded. The place just has terrible acoustics. Now, they can’t afford to fix this issue and I don’t blame them, but if you want more quiet just eat outside on their great patio. The place is so well maintained and there are great views of the boardwalk and Marina.
The service is very nice, but for us this time, it was really slow. But the server was super kind and listed all the specials for us. Listen to the specials because we had one and it was just fantastic.
We ordered quite a few items. Their starter fried calamari and shrimp was battered lightly and tasted great. They also have the best bread with olive oil for you to pour. We ate it all. It was that good. My husband had a wonderful salad, ever so crispy and fresh as well as their special filet mignon with fresh mashed potatoes. It was cooked perfectly. It is covered with a good sauce and fresh mushrooms. He loved it and I had to remind him to save a small piece for our dogs. He also loved his fresh unsweetened ice tea. He was happy as a clam.
I had the four cheese homemade gnocchi and once I was able to eat it, I loved it. The problem is it came out boiling, I mean literally boiling. I could not touch it. We finally had to remove it from the tray it came in and put it on the plate to try to get it to cool. Now, hot is fine, but had I put that in my mouth I would have been very badly burned. My husband could not touch it either. It took 20 minutes to be eatable. My husband did not want to eat without me, but I insisted he not let his food get cold so he ate and all his food was gone and we were still waiting for this to stop boiling. I was not pleased. Once I was able to eat it, I loved the flavor, it had a tad too much cheese, but overall it was very good. I won’t have it again however.
They have a very nice wine list. Their coffee is super.
We will give them another go because there are other things on the menu that also looked great. Have fun.
However, I would like to point out the extremely unprofessional and rude behavior of the host. We had a reservation but waited for 45 minutes due to the restaurant overbooking themselves. They used rain as an excuse even though it was forecasted from days ago. When we asked him an estimate on our table he said “you can go wait out there”. Extremely rude gentleman who made this restaurant lose a customer.
