It's one of the best seafood restaurants on land in NYC, and now it's taking it to the seas.
Marea is partnering with Classic Harbor Line for a luxurious dinner cruise experience, "Marea at Sea," on Monday nights throughout August and September.
Step aboard the America 2.0, Classic Harbor Line’s largest schooner at a length of 105 feet, for a "Taste of Marea" menu curated by the Altamarea Group’s Corporate Executive Chef Lauren DeSteno. While sailing past city landmarks like the One World Trade Center, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, guests can enjoy a three-course coastal Italian dinner along with an optional three-glass wine pairing chosen by Marea's sommelier team.
Savory plates include fancy stuff like tuna tartare with crème fraiche and caviar, hamachi crudo with fig and fennel, and European lobster with eggplant and stracciatella, finished off with a selection of bite-sized sweets for dessert. Tickets, which include a two-hour cruise around the New York Harbor, can be purchased at the Classic Harbor Line website and are set for $178, or $228 including the three-glass wine flight. (A complimentary beer, wine, champagne, or soft drink is included in the regular ticket prize, if you don't opt for the wine pairing.)
