   La Mer is a beautifully designed space with a nice ambience. The service was very good throughout our meal. The cocktail selection is terrific, and we enjoyed our drinks. However, the food menu and quality need work. The menu includes a nice list of appetizers, most of which sound very good. We had the bbq oysters ($20 for 6). We were surprised at how tiny the oysters were - one was literally the size of my pinkie nail. In some cases, when oysters are particularly smalll, restaurants will include an additional oyster in the serving. I’m not sure why the kitchen didn’t do that of just find a bigger oyster. However, the preparation was delicious. The menu includes about 5 main entrees-4 seafood and 1 chicken. The price for most is $39. The preparations were confusing- a combination of Asian and Cajun. We ordered 2 of the seafood entrees and they were very lackluster. Both were warm (just barely) and had undercooked broccolini with a sweetish Asian seasoning that was not very appetizing. Both seafood dishes had more of a Cajun style seasoning but should have been cooked and seasoned better. For $39 , the entrees need to be incredible. It was definitely not worth the money for us, but the restaurant has promise and could be great with a few adjustments.

   We had a great time at La Mer Seafood! Was our first time. The service was excellent with great recommendations by the waiters. The food was excellent. We enjoyed our evening and did not feel rushed.

   A lot of menu options and sides for mains were unavailable. Only one dessert option was cheesecake which was hard and crumbly and in a tin can. It was awful.

   Our meal wasn’t very good. Service was good but very small menu and sea bass was sub par. Hope they sort it out because great ambiance.

   Great meal on our first visit to La Mer. Delicious apps and seafood, attentive service and great music in the background. Will definitely go back.

   We decided to give this new local spot a try but unfortunately our experience fell flat. The service and ambiance were great. Grey was very attentive and was very polite. The food has changed since it opened. We had their version of fried rice which was lacking in seafood, which was plentiful on our first visit there. The Sea Bass was very fresh but unfortunately was overwhelmed by the butter on the potatoes and broccoli. We saw the owner hanging at the bar but he never made the rounds to welcome guests or check on the patrons. Very odd for a new restaurant trying to get its footing in the area. Unfortunately, this was a “miss” for us.

   The restaurant was out of most cocktail mixers. The drinks they could make were terrible and $15.00 each. The gumbo had one shrimp and some rice. Also $15.00. Three appetizers and one entre was $250.00 before the tip. We won’t go back

   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our experience at La Mer Seafood was absolutely amazing! The decor and ambiance were perfect, creating a wonderful atmosphere for our meal. The full bar added a personal touch with its amazing drinks. We couldn’t decide on just one appetizer because everything looked so good, so we ended up trying several, and none of them disappointed. Despite it being a seafood place, the Lemongrass Chicken dish was the best thing I’ve ever tasted! My wife had a fish dish and loved it as well. The prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality of food and service. We can't wait to go back, and even though it will be hard to order something other than the chicken dish, I’m excited to try other items on the menu. The service was excellent, with quick delivery of food and drinks, and the location is fantastic. Highly recommended!

    Very cool space. Food was good but wasn't incredible. We had the beef stir fry and seafood stir fry in addition to drinks and crab won ton apps. Best item we had all night was the lemon dessert.
