Lara's Fine Foods opens for business in the remodeled Saluté building in Marina Bay

   MARINA BAY - Lara's Fine Foods has opened in Marina Bay at the site of the former Saluté restaurant.

     After a grand opening at the harbor side site 1900 Esplanade Drive, the restaurant has had steady stream of customers for lunch and dinner.

     The restaurant is open from Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
     A few of the reviews on the social media website Nextdoor grumbled about the pricing - similar to that of the Hotel Mac, owned by the same entrepreneurial woman.
     But the food and drinks on the wide-ranging menu got almost entirely thumbs up - at least on Nextdoor.
     In addition to the food, drink and view of the harbor, the Arts of Point Richmond has a display up that is attracting plenty of customer attention.
     The link to the website for the new restaurant is: LARA'S FINE FOODS.
     The phone number for information or to make a reservation is 510-234-1860.
