We decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. I’m super picky with Indian food and never really ventured out of the chicken masala. Yesterday I tried their goat Saag gosht (goat) and it was absolutely delicious. The garlic naan is a bit on a tough side but still delicious. Definitely coming back here“

We can’t wait to go back!“

“Absolutely amazing meal. Believe the reviews and make time to stop by this place when you're in Norfolk. Every dish was delicious but serious shoutout to the Salmon and Shrimp Cheesesteak and maybe the best Greens we've ever had. You can tell they spend a lot of time and care on everything they serve. The entire staff is great and it's a wonderful , comfortable atmosphere.“

“This casual easy restaurant has become our favorite when visiting Norfolk. With a theme based on New York City street food but with an emphasis on Middle Eastern items, there’s something for everyone from warm delicious lamb kebab wraps and house made hummus to pizza, calzone and fries to stuffed grape leaves and falafel for the vegetarians. The whole family is satisfied including the pickiest eater, my husband, who loves the lamb platter - juicy bits of lamb surrounded by sliced tomatoes.“

“This place is the bomb! We had a family event and Caroline should be voted not only the manager of the month, but of the year! Her wait staff gave us the attention and served us like we have never been served in the past from any other establishment! The food was great and served on time! Again, kudos to manager Caroline and her wait staff for a positive and pleasant experience!“

“AWESOME FOOS AND STAFF! I am from the country and their food reminds me of my grandmother's sweet potato biscuits! Having been a chef for 20 years it gives a sentimental feeling right in the tum tum! Thank you guys for the great food and experience would love it if you opened up a franchise on the eastern shore of Maryland or delaware“

“So, there I was at work, stomach rumbling, ready to hit up my usual Chinese spot—boom, they’re closed. Bummer, right? But then I stumbled upon MayMar Poke and Grill, and let me tell you, it turned my lunch frown upside down!Parking lot was jam-packed, but that didn’t slow things down. The vibe inside was upbeat, everyone was super friendly—even the customers jumped in to help me figure out where to line up. Talk about good vibes only!I ordered a poke bowl that was nothing short of epic: double salmon, carrots, spring mix, rice, avocado, green onions, fried onions, seaweed salad, and imitation crab, all slathered in the perfect amount of sauce. Yes, it was as good as it sounds. Plus, I was suggested to I grabbed a plantain dessert—this thing was like a sweet, sugary hug for your taste buds, all wrapped up in a lumpia wrap.If you’re scouting for a stellar meal that won’t break the bank, MayMar is your spot. Great food, solid prices, and a chill atmosphere. Don’t just scroll past this review, go check them out! -Von“

“had a grilled cheese with tomatoes. it was excellent. loved the aoli. proprietor was fun to talk to, great service. Can't wait to return.“
