    We went to Marin for our monthly girls dinner, and it was such a nice experience to have excellent food at a decent price. My friend has been eating salmon in Seattle for thirty years and said Marin’s was the best she ever had. Myself and another friend had the lamb chops, which were perfectly cooked and seasoned. I am an obnoxiously picky eater, interrogate waitstaff on spices and whine about the cost. No such issues at Marin. Can’t wait to go back and get the salmon.
