As always, the atmosphere at Maria's is so welcoming, and this visit was 10/10. We sat outside on the outdoor patio. For it being a July evening, it was cool and the fans made it more comforting. Ivan was our waiter, he was attentive and gave great recommendations. We ordered a small pitcher of their seasonal watermelon sangria to start. One of our favorite things that Maria's offers is their seasonal sangria! For an appetizer, we ordered the special: Nachos Fiesta de Mar. These were unbelievable. Creamy lobster, shrimp, and lump crab piled on crispy nachos, topped with queso fresco, mango pico, avocado, jalapenos, and drizzled with chipotle cream. Honestly, could have licked the plate clean. For my entree, I had the Churrasco Argentino. The shell steak was cooked perfectly at medium and it was topped with the perfect amount of chimichurri, with extra on the side if needed! The side of rice and string beans rounded it out really well. My dad had the bronzino special, which came with rice and beans as well. It was fresh and cooked exactly how he wanted it. He couldn't stop raving about it. We finished with their classic fried ice cream. I was so full and only had a bite, but it was incredible. Highly recommend Maria's for a welcoming atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious, unique dishes.

The food and drinks were delicious! I would make a reservation, luckily for us, there was a spot at the bar. The only thing that I have an issue with is that they charge for seltzer, $4! I didn't know they charged for seltzer AND refills, so $8 on just seltzer... other than that my app was scrumptious. I got the ropa vieja. I honestly would be back, but the charging of the seltzer really deters me.

Candy cane fried ice cream

I don't know. I'm torn with this review. I came here with some friends on a Friday evening. They were quite crowded but we had a reservation and didn't have to wait too long to be seated. To start I had a pear margarita. It was very good. When I ordered it again, it tasted a little different. Other drinks at my table were also ordered, but I don't recall what they were. For an appetizer my boyfriend and I had Maduro Relleno con Camarones. This was Sweet Plantain stuffed with Shrimp in Coconut Creole Sauce topped with Tropical Cheese. This was delicious! However, this was the only food item that was delicious for the evening. I ordered the Salmon con Salsa de Mango. It had very basic flavor. The menu stated the salmon was chipotle glazed...but I did not get any chipotle flavors at all. When I ordered my Salmon our waiter asked me if I was sure I didn't want the cod special. No I don't want it. If I wanted the cod special, I would've ordered it. This dish also cost more than the salmon dish, so I believe he was trying upsell me. My boyfriend had Chuletas Cubanos. His pork was completely flavorless. There wasn't any type of seasoning at all. The chorizo was also over cooked. Other food that was ordered was the short rib special, a steak dish, some type of pulled pork and something else that I don't recall. For dessert I had regular fried ice cream and my boyfriend had the candy cane fried ice cream special. Mine was okay and he didn't like is. He described it as eating a bowl of toothpaste. Patron espresso martini was decent. Service was okay. Our waiter handled our party of 6 efficiently. Food was just eh/average. One and done for us.

Chips
Andrew I.

My chicken fajita's were very good and enough to bring more home! Didn't love that they charge for extra shells when there was definitely not enough to use all the filling. Chips were decent, guacamole was good but small. Loved my fried ice cream dessert! Service is very nice and attentive. Ambiance was amazing, especially since we ate outside with heat lamps!

Great service and atmosphere ,specially during holidays.and the menu was to die for. Thanks to the staff for a wonderful birthday celebration

Big Burrito with chips.  Burro-Grande

Great food! Wonderful service! Very nice restaurant! The wife and I were very happy with this restaurant!

Strawberry Margherita and a Mango Caipirinha. Good drinks!

Man do I need to get back on the review wagon. I think I wrote up only one in all of June and that was the beginning of the month! I've been to plenty of places since then and a few before, like Maria's in Nesconset (picture stamp date is late April...yikes!). But some good things deserve a little time to be reviewed like this Mexican food spot that I visited back in Spring with my wife. Now we had passed Maria's a few times and saw the small-looking setup from the road, though Maria's has a decent amount of space inside as well as a nice little exterior area. That day I remember it was quite warm for April, but the sun was setting and the chills were underway so we ate inside right in a small corner where somehow the wall angled into nothing (which honestly my wife loved). The rest of the ambiance was festive and fun creating a casual yet still a little classy eating experience. Speaking of eating, Maria's menu was of respectable size with plenty of Mexican and Latin favorites. But with favorites such as these, there are always good drinks to be had and so my wife and I ordered a frozen strawberry margarita and a pineapple mojito. Yum! Chips and salsa donned the table from our mostly attentive waiter and then it was finally ordering time. Starting with an app (which we probably didn't need) I went for the tamales as my wife was not sure she had ever had them (so we needed to change that!). Stuffed with beef and topped with avocado, red chili sauce, and queso fresco, these tamales were quite tasty (even if I felt like there probably should've been one or two more to match the price). For dinner, there were a lot of great-sounding authentic meals, but my wife and I both did the combo thing and got plates that came with a few different items. My plate was combo #9 (not mambo #5, sorry Lou Bega) which consisted of a beef taco, chicken enchilada, and chili relleno. The lady had combo #1 (chicken taco, beef burrito, cheese enchilada) and for both of us we enjoyed what we ate. I'll say the taco got a little soggy towards the end and the rice and beans were pretty basic, but as a whole the flavors hit (love me some chili relleno). Overall, Maria's was a quality spot for some good ol' Mexican/Latin cuisine. Often I'm just looking for something quick and easy like tacos (so Right Coast's taco truck is my go-to for this type of grub), but if I'm looking for more of a full and festive meal, then I know Maria's will be my option. And with that, we move one step closer to writing a review for some where a little more recently-visited.

I've been at this place for many times and never disappointed . We seat outside was beautiful day .The staff. Very friendly and the food always good .

Best margarita anywhere!!
Debra B.

You must visit Maria's! The fun upbeat vibe is great! They have the best margarita's I had a spicy cranberry margarita that was delicious. We started with the plantain special that had shrimp, cheese and coconut which was to die for! The seafood enchilada comes with 2 fishes, check to make sure you like them. We asked for only shrimp. The mole sauce was incredible with the perfect amount of heat. The tacos el carbon were sheer perfection. This is one of my favorite restaurants be side it us always consistently so delicious! The staff are super friendly and helpful! Go go go!

Awesome Mussel special
Dick G.

Bon G and I have been wanting to visit Maria's and last night we trekked to Nesconset and found this Gem, in the flesh! If you werent looking for this place without GPS you probably wouldnt find it. Its a hidden world that transports you to a different place, one thats tranquil, beautiful and Spanish! They have a wonderful outdoor area but we chose to dine indoors as it was getting dark. We were seated immediately in the dining room and visited by our wonderful server Ivan. We had many questions and he was cordial and answered them all. We started with the Maria's Special Sangria... a large size pitcher filled with wine, liquors and all kinds of ripe delish fruits... was wonderful and packed a punch! Ivan told us they had a Mussels special which we ordered...was the BEST Mussels we have had in a very long time...Large meaty mussels in a fantastic garlic based sauce that we slurped up till it was all gone. Also got fantastic Quesadilla Cubano; awesome fresh Lechon packed segments filled with juicy shredded pork...So Good! We were full by now but had to try a couple of mains...Bon had the Steak Fajita and I had the Skirt Steak...both delish and prepared to order. Took home enough leftovers for another meal. We were too full for dessert but we lefft happy and rareing to bring friends to dine here with us and enjoy the food, atomosphere and great service proferred by Ivan and the rest of the staff....We will return soon!!!

I'm writing this review as I am eating the chips and salsa you sent us back to our hotel with! (Thank you!!) I highly recommend ordering some of the salsa verde, our group of 3 all agreed it was some of the absolute most delicious salsa we've ever tasted. The tacos I ate were really good, I like the one with the pineapple, and the chimichurri steak was delicious as well. Went back for a breakfast burrito which was very filling and delicious. Try the pina colada on the rocks! So good! We literally went back twice during our 3 day stay. 10/10 would recommend. Ask for Allison, she'll genuinely make you feel like family, in the best of ways.

We chose a table. Inside is comfortable and has a Rustic ambiance. We chose to share a chicken quesadilla for our appetizer with Margaritas on the rocks with salt. We were served chips and salsa on the house. We ordered Shrimp Tacos. Mine was Buffalo style, MJ's was Street Style. "Grilled". Everything was perfectly cooked and delicious. One thing that MJ pointed out was a high volume of delivery service. Good to know if you are local and get food delivery. Many thanks to Ryan! We will definitely come back.
