Catered today for teachers and staff returning from summer! Somehow, there was a miscommunication and they were able to do my complete order in about an hour...best part FOOD WAS FREAKING AMAZING! 10 OUT OF 10! Thank you guys so much. The spinach pasta was the greatest and the salad was to die for. I will be going back.

I don’t think i’ve had an experience such as the one i’ve felt at Maria’s Little Italy. the atmosphere as soon as i walked in felt like a place i’ve known my entire life, like a warm hug. the service was literally the best i’ve received since i’ve started going out to sit down restaurants. the food is easily a 10/10, nothing i tried was less than a 10. this is the kind of restaurant i wish was everywhere.

We were visiting from out of town and stopped in to try! Wow, smelled amazing from the moment we walked in the door!

We walked in right after they opened at 5 and were greeted promptly. Decor was modern with a rustic vibe. There were specials on the board near the front register and cases filled with authentic Italian desserts!

We had a decently large number of guests in our party, but drinks, salads and entrees were served promptly. Salads were fabulous!The gnocchi and vodka sauce was the best I’ve had locally! My child enjoyed the ravioli and we all really enjoyed our (primarily) pasta meals! The tiramisu and a cannoli were equally delicious and we really felt this place was possibly a hidden gem? I hope not! Reviews were already glowing but we wanted to share our thoughts and experience, too! Please support this local Italian spot, we can’t wait to come back!

Bathrooms were also clean and presentable!

This was our first time here, the atmosphere was classy but comfortable, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the food was fresh and homemade. The quality and taste exceeded expectations and the price was very fair. My wife and I will be adding this to our date night rotation.

It was delicious everything from the arancini to the spaghetti and meatballs were out of this world and our server Sophie was absolutely perfect so sweet and very attentive to her tables. She recommended some delicious options when I had asked what she liked, service was timely and not too slow or too fast. Fantastic place! We are most certainly coming back again!!
