The Marina in Chennai is a fine dining seafood establishment that offers a unique concept of selecting your seafood from a live counter and customizing your preparation style. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, with a bit of congestion due to the limited seating space. The interior design is simple yet elegant, with an open kitchen that allows diners to watch their food being prepared. Prices are on the higher side, but the freshness and quality of the seafood justify the cost.

The Marina's menu boasts a variety of fresh saltwater fish, crabs, prawns, and squid, all cooked to perfection with a Malabar-style twist. The tiger prawns and pomfret fry are must-tries, while the grilled pomfret and lobster with Szechuan chili fried are also popular choices. Vegetarians can enjoy the veg stir-fry or Kerala chicken curry.

For drinks, The Marina offers a selection of soft drinks, wines, and cocktails. The tender coconut payasam is a refreshing dessert option, while the kit kat mousse is a must-try for chocolate lovers.

Located in Nungambakkam, The Marina is a great destination for seafood lovers looking for a unique dining experience. Although slightly pricey, the restaurant's fresh catch and customizable preparation styles make it a must-visit for those seeking a taste of the sea.

The Marina in Chennai is hands down the best seafood spot in the city’s center. I tried lobster, crab, fish, and prawns — all incredibly fresh and cooked to perfection. The live selection of seafood makes the experience unique and exciting. Ambience is charming, service attentive, and flavors outstanding. A must-visit for any seafood lover!
