We ordered take out from Maria's the week it opened and were somewhat disappointed. We ordered the "original" Chicken Marsala and Puntanesca and both dishes were quite bland. Also, whoever put our order together... (more)

Oh, how I miss the old Maria's! The decor was dated and stereotypical (in a really awesome and charming way), the service was decent, and the food was great. I am willing to give the new owners another chance in a few... (more)

I heard incredible things about Maria's Front Room before it closed and reopened under new ownership. People had raved about how good the food and service was. Maybe my expectations were too high? At a time when... (more)

If you think this place has great food, then you don't get out very often. I am so embarrassed that I invited guests assuming that it was as good as before. I wanted to crawl under my table and hide.... (more)

We waited at least 10 minutes for someone to acknowledge us. Finally the hostess that seated us brought us bread and water. She did apologize for the wait. That apology was the highlight of the dining experience. A few... (more)

That's just a start for the good news. My bride and myself hadn't been at Marias since it was under Buddy"s ownership. Followed the owners Joanie and Carl from Detroit (Grand River location) into Ferndale after its... (more)

I'm so surprised there are any bad reviews of this place! I've been eagerly awaiting the reopen of Maria's for months now, and while I was a bit hesitant to return when I learned it was under new ownership, I have to say... (more)

I have never written a restaurant review and tonight I feel so compelled to talk about this utterly disappointing experience at the re-opening of Marias. 1) The new decor is less to be desired. I am not saying that I... (more)

It's a shame to see Maria's go. Loved the spinach tortellini. The house wine will be missed. If you can get in before the room goes dark, you won't regret it. I've been eating here for years, and to see such a Ferndale... (more)

I honestly don't have any idea how anyone could post a bad review. I have been here 4-5 times over the past 2 years or so, and have been happy with every time I go. When you are seated, you are given a great piece of butter... (more)

What with all the great reviews!? The pasta tasted like maple syrup. The food overall was horrible. We went there once and both of our dishes were horrible. The food was disgusting and we let the waitress know that. I'm... (more)

My Wife and I had heard that this restaurant had very good italian food locally. Boy, that is a lie. First, the waitress was very rude. Second, the salad dressing was the worst we have ever had in our life, if you say the... (more)

What a wonderful little Italian restaurant! If we lived in the neighborhood rather than an hour away, we'd be regulars. The waitstaff is attentive and efficient, Sinatra and Tony Bennett are serenading in the... (more)

<b>In Short</b><br>The basketed Chianti bottles are covered in drippings from red candles. The wine is homemade and the servings are family-sized. Maria Orlando serves the usual pastas, seven veal scallopinis,... (more)

My husband is first-generation American (family from Sicily) and this is the only Italian restaurant we frequent. The homemade wine is great, the garlic bread is to die for and the food is wonderful. The waitstaff is... (more)

The menu had enough varieties to make everyone in the party think for awhile. All four of us were happy with our meals. The Veal Marsala was excellent. The dining area is small, and tables are close together. There is no... (more)
