    This place has an amazing view! We sat in the outside covered area which had a prime view. At sunset. The service was great! The food was delicious! We had a lot of the raw items; oysters, tuna poke tower, albacore ceviche and crudo sampler (which actually is not crudo but actually sashimi but was still delicious). We also had the octopus and caesar salad which was not your ordinary caesar salad. It had bacon and a 6 minute boiled egg. The smoked old fashioned was delicious, smelled amazing (apple and campfire smell) and was quite a show. They also had amazing local wines and for those who like wine I will tell you they had great glassware too But honestly what stole the show was the desserts. The corn cake was Amazing!!!! So delicious and different.. We also had the bread pudding which was also delicious but slightly less delicious than the corn cake. Also we went with our kids. There is no kids menu but our kids are great eaters and love raw and cooked seafood so they ate all the food we ordered and loved it. We will definitely be back again.

    We went to Marisol to celebrate a birthday and watch the sunset and it didn’t disappoint. The food was delicious and the ambiance was amazing. They brought us a celebratory non alcoholic shot to toast at sunset! So fun! I highly recommend Marisol for a special occasion or anytime!

    As always we loved our dinner and experience at sea venture. The menu has been updated. Had the fried chicken and it was fantastic. Two others had the lobster and filet for two. Delish. The halibut was enjoyed by the birthday girl. We started with the Brussel sprouts. Wonderful. Crème brûlée was brought to the birthday girl. We will be back. Zachary it was lovely to see you again.
