I came to this restaurant for an event and I was amazed at the drinks a food. Normally, when you go to events, they give drinks in small glasses I got a drink in a super-sized glass.The food was flavorful. I had a great experience. Will certainly go back again

Fantastic food, even better people. Highly recommend. Sautéed crab meat, out of this world! Lamb chops cooked to perfection along with the scallops. Looking forward to going back!

Love love love this place!! Family owned and operated business which I love to support! Wether it’s just for dinner and drinks or hosting a special occasion they do an amazing job! I’ve been coming here for years and just used them to host my daughters 1st birthday party. All of my guests literally raved about how amazing the food was as well as the establishment. I highly recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you for helping me throw the most amazing 1st birthday party.

First Birthday Party. About 60 guests. My first time here. Great friendly staff. Delicious appetizers (great calamari). Buffet dinner was excellent. Penne Vodka was very creamy and delicious, one of the best I’ve had. Chicken Francaise was perfect. Veggies cooked perfectly. The Roasted potatoes were soooo good. Chicken tenders (delicious) and steak fries were spot on. I’ll be back!!

When making a reservation they did not disclose a fixed menu at a cost of $95.00, we stayed because it was New Year Eve. Where could we go? We got the bill and found out we were charged for using our credit card, again no disclosure. Next there was an automatic gratuity, again no disclosure. The owner was by the register and did not have the courtesy to talk to us instead he walked out of view. If you decide to go there find out what you are in for. Personally I will never patronize them again.

Mara's was a lovely experience. It is very traditional in decor (& pretty large if you're looking to host a party). The food was excellent. Among our group we had: the fennel salad (A+++), the pear & Gorgonzola salad, the vegetable stew, artichoke heart appetizer, the salmon, & the duck. Everyone was thrilled with what they chose. Mara's does have a liquor license (& an excellent bartender!!) They even made a special mocktail for my daughter. Definitely try Mara's!

I was here for a repast and I have to say, all of the food prepared for this buffet was top shelf. Chicken in vodka sauce, fresh green beans, roasted asparagus, mixed green salad were delicious. While friends had told me of how good this place, it was confirmed as I sat down the afternoon. Take a bow kitchen.

I went with a few of my friends and my server jen would not leave the table. She even brought her alcoholic beverage to the table with her and tried to join us. She clearly was under the influence of more than alcohol her eyes looked insane and she talked so much we couldn’t get an word in even if we tried
