We had dinner here last week and it was fabulous. My friend dropped his wedding ring by accident between the floor boards and they were so nice. They took apart the floor the next day and got it out!! Talk about going above and beyond. Also the fish was phenomenal.

Maro Wood Grill is a true gem that stands out for its exceptional quality and dedication to fresh, organic ingredients. The food here is consistently outstanding, making it one of our all-time favorite dining spots. Living nearby is an absolute blessing, as it allows us to enjoy their takeout frequently.

Their grilled vegetables are unparalleled, with the grilled fennel, okra, wild green beans, and artichokes being some of the highlights—each dish bursting with rich, natural flavors. The organic free-range whole chicken is always perfectly cooked, tender, and flavorful. Maro’s lamb chops are phenomenal, showcasing the skill and care put into their preparation.

The gourmet burger, paired with roasted potatoes, is one of the best you’ll ever find. The empanadas are another standout, embodying authentic flavors with a touch of gourmet finesse. Every dish reflects the exceptional quality of the ingredients used.

We also appreciate Maro Wood Grill’s commitment to accommodating dietary restrictions and allergies, ensuring a safe and enjoyable dining experience for everyone.

Overall, Maro Wood Grill has become a staple in our lives, and we are grateful to have such an outstanding restaurant close by. Highly recommended for anyone who values exceptional food and top-tier service.

I think Maro is going broke! 3rd bad experience there-never again! Ordered Organic Chicken w/veges. This meal was the WORST CHICKEN DISH I've ever eaten. It was SO BAD, SO SALTY and RUBBERY, I ended up spitting up my 2nd bite of chicken into the sink. They claim its organic-! Oh no, absolutely NOT! It's PROCESSED CHICKEN, more like Costco frozen processed chicken from a plastic bag. Absolutely Horrible!!! The menu advertised it comes with side of vegetables. (I got 90% roasted potatoes & 10% carrots and a few micro tid-bits of zucchini.) So pathetic!!! Don't WASTE YOUR MONEY! GO SOMEWHERE else!
