Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It is a joy to come here for Sunday lunch. We arrived and there are jugs of water and baskets of bread to enjoy immediately. We ordered wine and it was in our glasses before our driver arrived in from parking the car. That's service...for you! There was no rush put on us to get our food order in but when we did it arrived within 10 minutes or so . We especially loved the pork belly and the Sunday roast - beef- was delicious and very generous. We got 3 slices of sirloin. Desserts looked and tasted great. The profiterole was filled with really creamy caramel ice cream. Management and waiting staff came to.ourctable a few times during the meal to ask us if everything was ok. No wonder this family business has so successful for so long.More

You would expect a restaurant called La Marine to be able to cook fish properly but alas, not. The monkfish was chewy and tasteless without any sauce. Not worth €26. Other mains - salmon and duck were better. Desserts and chessboard were good and there’s...a decent wine list. Service was good despite being busy.More

I booked La marine for lunch for four people . On arrival , the door to the restaurant was closed . Several people queuing . Person eventually opened the door and turned around ,casually left it ajar without welcoming people in to restaurant. On entering...the bar our party of four were ignored . We looked around for a table . The tables were small . The tiled floor was dirty . I was disappointed as I had expected a higher standard from reviews. I asked about La Marine ? If I was in the right place ? The server told me that the bar served the same menu even though we had booked La Marine and suggested we take a seat in the bar even though the tables were VERY small for a party of four . When I established I had booked a table I was reluctantly shown to our table . The food was good . Service , once we were shown to our booked table was good .More

Went for Sunday lunch. The roast special was good and reasonably priced. Would recommend you popping in if near by and not staying in the hotel

We ate in La Marine on Saturday night . Everything about the meal was just wonderful . We both had crab claws to start and they were so fresh and tasty. Then we had chicken and lamb. Both beautifully cooked , very decent portions and...gorgeous vegetable and potato accompaniments. One dessert - roulade, was delicious. Wines were lovely , great glasses . Atmosphere was buzzing and service excellent. Cannot wait to go again !More

The restaurant bar looks grubby. The brass needs a proper clean. The walls are stumble and marble. Both finishes need cleaning. The visible wine cellar needs to be tidy instead of random boxes on the floor. The food is adequate. Not top notch. Too much...lettuce frisée with my crab. Scallops slightly over done. Asparagus ends not shaved so they were tough. The thin cut chips were a mix of perfect and overcooked. The lemon meringue roulade was excellent. Needs a good shake up.More

A group of 8 of us visited La Marine recently to celebrate my father in law's birthday. It was superb from start to finish! We enjoyed a pre-dinner drink in the bar before hand and were served by the very professional and friendly Patrick. There...is a cocktail list which we perused, but who can pass up the selection of delicious wines, especially when you can see right into the cellar! Paul led us to our table and himself and Breda looked after us all evening. We enjoyed a mixture of dishes from the Early Bird Menu (Excellent Value!!) and the A La Carte menu. All 8 of us tried something different from Steak, Hake to Spatchcock chicken, with no complaints from anyone! A birthday cake arrived for the Birthday Boy and a great fuss was made! This is not my first time to La Marine, and it won't be the last! It truly is A Jewel In the Crown" and a great asses to Rosslare and Wexford.More

Went for lunch as was given it as a voucher as a Christmas present. Sat promptly. It was very cold in the restaurant ,I did ask the waitress and she said it was from the opening and closing of the door .We were not sitting...near the door but I accepted it and kept my coat on . A young man was being trained in and we were his first table to practice.Ok I told them I had been in the business for 27 years and opened fine dining restaurants so I understood that one has to start somewhere. Starters, each mussel was separated in a dish one would get with when serving les escargots. Unnecessary as we are by the sea so look forward to getting "hands in the bowl" ..but I image it's a space issue on the table . Partner had deep fried chicken... grizzle in chicken which is unpleasant to pick out of your mouth ,bland , nasty,really unpleasant.If the chef is tasting this it would not of been served. Hake main , uncomplicated, seasoned,fine . Duck main ,cooked well, uncomplicated fine . Dessert. Cheese board .....bland , unripened cheese ,cold ,cut thick. ..nasty and pointless... Partner . almond tart ...she enjoyed it . Got wrong forgotten coffees but that's fine as training in place . Restaurant manager ,fine ,look after customers ,need to wear actually mask over nose . This experience was soo average... No thank you ,service good ,food BLAND..More

Had a fabulous lunch in La Marine Bistro today. The atmosphere was fabulous and the staff were incredible. Here is an example of a restaurant (and hotel) that knows the value of service. I will be highly recommending to friends & family! And the food!!...Well done to the Chef, crafting an actual tasty and nutritious plant-based menu (yes more than 1 option!). I was so impressed, thank you to all of the staff for a beautiful afternoon in Rosslare. Will be back soon!More
