"La Mar looks like a classy sea blue hotel lobby set somewhere on Miami Beach, with two bar areas and a high-ceilinged dining room. But the covered waterfront deck overlooking some piers is exactly where we want to drink never-ending pisco sours and fill up on tangy ceviche, crispy empanadas, grilled scallops over lima bean tacu-tacu, and other Peruvian classics. This small plates spot is always packed with tourists, locals popping in for the 3-5pm weekday Happy Hour, and people in town for some sort of convention, which makes a night here buzzy." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
