HANDS DOWN, by far, THE best restaurant in town! Nothing is close!!!
We have had a few meals in town, spent time on the beach and know what's what.
Our last night- we didn't want a loud bar atmosphere or the disappointment of an over priced, stuffy, mediocre (which I will rate elsewhere!) restaurant.
Thank goodness our choice was Mary's!! Mary's is family owned and run. Such a pleasure to meet and interact with them!
We showed up before they were open and the son of the owner let us know their hours and said he looked forward to seeing us in a bit. When we arrived at the correct time, we were quickly greeted with a genuine smile and "so glad you came back to join us tonight." He remembered us and we were treated like we were appreciated, like family.
They brought us delicious bread in a basket, twice, and breadsticks in this cool sculpture that mimicked the mountain range down the beach. They explained what it was and the focaccia bread that came with the sculpture was instantly gone between the four of us. We ordered drinks, Peroni beer and vodka with lime, along with several bottles of still water. We had questions on the menu and everything was answered completely. It was so nice to have staff that treat you like you are not a nuisance. Everyone that works at this restaurant is very kind, they have amazing energy, they love what they do, and they're proud of the beautiful and delicious food that they make!
We had homemade spaghetti with clams and cherry tomatoes, homemade pasta with seafood, shrimps and squid's and gnocchi with tomato sauce. DElish!!
For desert we had homemade lava cake with vanilla ice cream and tiramisu. Homemade by Mary!! She explained her extensive menu of desserts- yummy!
Do not waste your time or money anywhere else. Such a treat to have a fresh, homemade, delicious meal in a relaxed, beautiful, attentive, friendly atmosphere with family.
The next morning, we came down for coffee. What a beautiful way to start a day!
THIS is your place! You will not be disappointed!
Thank you Mary and family! read more
