We went for our anniversary. I didn’t know what to expect although I had heard good things about the Grand Marlin. In short, the food was excellent, the service was friendly and the server knew her wine pairings well. The view of the Bay was very nice and relaxing. In all, I can’t see how you could go wrong at Grand Marlin.

The Grand Marlin is an exceptionally great place to dine. I have never had a disappointing meal at this establishment, the food is excellent and the service from Hunter was above and beyond the norm. I will always ask to be seated in his area of responsibility. I recommend the Grand Marlin with enthusiasm.
