    At in main inside dining area, very nice and would be a great date night location. Saturday lunch special was 99 cent cocktails (4 options limit of 3 per person). Deviled eggs appetizer was wonderful. Fries green tomato with crab meat was also wonderful.

    This is the nicest restaurant on the southeast side of town. Awesome food, service and atmosphere right on the water. The boudain stuffed pork chop is the best ever. Don't miss this spot. Beautiful restaurant.

    The blackened catfish plate with Gouda grits was delicious and the Fruity Pebbles Tres Leches was the best part! I made a reservation and it worked out perfectly.

    We absolutely love the atmosphere at Marais! You are always greeted with such enthusiasm and sincerity. The food is so good and the service we receive is bar none. We went for my daughter's birthday, and they really made her feel special! Marai's never disappoints! The Mingarelli Family

    Enjoyed the experience especially once they turned the music off. It is very loud in the dining room. The service was great AAA The food was mediocre. Too much sauce on the entrées and my food was cold
