    I’m originally from Peru. I came with my wife, and we ordered the Pisco Sour. It’s so good! We got the ceviche and crab dip, and both were incredible. We’ll definitely come back soon!

    Today I stopped into Maru and had Savannah as my bartender and I was almost blown away with every suggestion she brought my way. The hamachi aguachile was absolutely delicious as was the silver munk, a mezcal cocktail mixed with chartreuse and tequila. I’ll be back again soon.
