Marea

Marea is an Italian restaurant near the entrance of Central Park that serves octopus, scallops, and seafood pasta. Its signature dishes include the octopus dish Polpo, fusilli, and the lobster dish Astice, and bread before the meal and tiramisu are also served. An order of fusilli is sometimes split into two bowls, and the weekday lunch menu does not have many pasta options. The food is on the salty side and the tables are close together.
