    My husband & I dined @ Maria Rita’s & we had the most pleasant & thoughtful server. She walked us through the menu & we, actually, ended up ordering what she suggested & our dinner was, very delicious! Thank you, Emma @ Maria Rita’s! When we go back…& we will, we’re looking forward to your service!

    I ordered food to go. Didn't have to wait too long. It was all great except the girl at the front welcoming all the guest in the door looked like she was mad. Not once did I see her smile during the 15 minute wait for my food. She is the face of the restaurant. Too Bad.

    Went in to place an order to go. I was told that someone would come n take my order. Someone came, never asked me anything, left. While I was waiting another customer came in to dine in. The waitress provided him with a menu and escorted him to his seat. Meanwhile I've been waiting to order, was never given a menu, which were there under the front podium. I stopped in here for lunch while at work. Not only was it inconsiderate, but yall wasted my time, now I gotta go take more time to go elsewhere.

    Our waitress was fine until the very end, when she began rushing us out. Because of that rush, she made an error with the charges on my card on December 14, 2025. When I brought it up, the manager said it was a “simple mistake.” I disagree — mistakes happen, but lying or twisting the truth is not a mistake. No customer should ever be rushed out or misled just to cover up a server’s wrongdoing. Honesty matters, especially when it involves someone’s money. I won’t be returning and will be informing friends and family of this experience. Dining in has consistently had issues here. While ordering out and catering packages were usually reliable, I’ll now be searching for another business that offers quality catering with integrity.
