A true gem! From the moment we walked in, we were transported to Greece. The ambiance is elegant yet warm. Every dish was a masterpiece, from the perfectly grilled octopus to the melt-in-your-mouth lamb shank. The wine list featured some incredible Greek selections. Exceptional service, too!
Delicious and authentic ! Great variety of drinks, appetizers, meals, and desserts. Never a miss. The atmosphere is lovely as well- the dining room has ‚vintage’ photos from Greece hanging around.
A superlative experience. Exceptional food (not greasy, but tasty). Superlative atmosphere that appeals to all cultures, ages and people. The service was quick and responsive. The people are always accommodating.

I've celebrated my friends' birthdays at this restaurant twice now, and both experiences were fantastic! The service was amazing, the cake was delicious, and the overall food was definitely worth the price!
Staff was very nice and attentive. Appetizer portions were small in comparison to the price they charge that is similar to neighboring Mediterranean restaurants. Entrees were all good - my lemon potatoes however weren't moist - but dry. Dessert was delicious. Restaurant ambiance feels outdated and floors to bathroom felt grimy underfoot.
Never had a bad experience here. Food is great and the service is not bad. Their lemon potatoes and beet salad are always my go to starters. The lamb chops are surprisingly good!
The wait staff was warm and friendly. The food was pretty good. All but one of us ordered the lamb shoulder special and really enjoyed our meal. Most of us also ordered the blueberry baklava, which was delicious! One of us ordered plain baklava which was not that great. In all, a great experience and a great time.
Very disappointed. Not celiac-safe. Staff needs allergy training. I’m sure the food is good, but I wouldn’t know. I could not trust the waiter or kitchen enough to order an entree without fear of getting glutened.
Arrived early afternoon on a Saturday, with only 1 other group inside. I alerted the waiter about a gluten allergy (Celiac) first thing, and to please separate the pita from the dips I was ordering as an appetizer.
No more than 5 minutes later, he comes out with 1 plate of … pita and dip, not separated.
When I reminded him that I specifically asked for them separated since I have a *disease*, he looked at me and said, “Oh yeah sorry. Just dont eat the dip close to the pita.” !!!!!
So unprofessional, I couldn’t believe it. He then brought me what he said was “Carrots and cabbage” which was actually carrots and celery.
I’ve never had a dining experience like this. Please train your staff on food allergies.
My family and I love Maria's. The food is always authentic and excellent, the service is wonderful, and staff is friendly. We always leave satisfied and happy!
We came here to celebrate my children's graduation. It was a fantastic meal and a relaxing dining experience. Thank you Marco! He is a great waiter. So sweet that he gave the table a complimentary dessert for the graduates! 👨🎓👩🎓

This place took me to the Mediterranean. The staff was quality. Saki and Maria were gracious and kind. The staff works hard here. The drinks blew our minds. Know they self cocktail and better late than never were insanely good. Both I will definitely order again. They have gluten free options too. The dips and chips blew my mind. Fried pita with quality dips. Best thing i ate this month. Yhe stuffed baked clam and crab cake were fresh. The lemon potatoes are insanely good. Memorable. The meat platter is massive. The stewards and chicken yummy over perfectly seasoned fries. The lukomad stuffed with cheesecake 😋 devine. Best I've had. The blueberry baklava was the best dessert of the year.
Great place. Good Greek food. Best pita chips on earth. Dips are great. Portobello with feta delicious. Good Greek salad. Solid fish entree. Good waiter service. Liked it a lot. Lots of families. Packed Saturday night
Food was excellent! Service was ideal! And we even got to meet the owner Maria! I would recommend to anyone if you are looking for Greek Food.
The restaurant has a nice ambiance the wait staff was attentive had pork dish from the lunch menu the meat was well seasoned my friend had the grilled fish which was tasty but both the accompanying vegetables were cold the Sangria was good would go try this restaurant again
Food was good and people was kindly. Only thing is requested table on window side for my weeding anniversary but it wasn't available for 2persons. Order couple of appetizers, 2 main dish with bottle of red wine after all table wasn't big enough for it.
