What Maracaibo Expres likes about Junction:
Glad we had made a reservation as restaurant was packed n a Saturday night! Place was hopping! Our server was a young man who was running in all directions but still managed to get everything out to us on time! Delicious food. Ceviche was to die for as well as my Bullwhip cocktail! We were using a gift voucher we bought through The Wintergreen Nature Foundation’s Fundraising dinner last June....and it was worth every... View all feedback. What Lolita Trantow doesn't like about Junction:
I've been here a couple of times but this time it was a little disappointing. The braesola starter which I love really saved up on the mushrooms. And they were plain old mushrooms, not the fabulous wild mushrooms they had in the past. I was amazed. The pasta specifically was salty and dry. The fried calamari and prawns were very salty too. The quality of the food that goes into the meals is really top notch. In their... View all feedback.

La Marea, located in a bustling area, offers excellent food with a wide variety of options served by a wonderful staff. However, the noise level inside can be overwhelming due to the hard surfaces that reflect sound, impacting the overall dining experience. Despite occasional disappointments with certain dishes being too salty or lacking flavor, the top-notch quality of the ingredients used in the meals is evident. The ambiance varies depending on the time of day, with quiet mornings contrasting with lively weekend nights. While not recommended for young children due to the more mature atmosphere, La Marea is a great spot for adults to enjoy delicious food and a fun environment. Despite some mixed reviews, many guests have had positive experiences and plan to return, appreciating the attentive service and tasty dishes offered by this popular restaurant.
