Maria Sol - Santa Monica

Stop for late lunch and really enjoyed eating. Drinks and food were great. I think the drinks are a little expensive, but the food was reasonable. Just a little thing about the atmosphere, there was a performer outside near the terrace where we sat and with music from the restaurant speaker and the performer at the same time was a little unpleasant to the ear. I would recommend that the restaurant shut off the music on the terrace when a performer is present.

Let me start saying my first night in CA, I was hoping that this would turn out. That did not, but that is said, let us roll the ball on this review. So we sat very fast and we were greeted with chips and salsa before the waiter came to us. We murmured on the chips and looked at the menu. The waiter came to us (Fernando O) and took our drinks order and we were able to find out what we wanted while we were waiting. So my wife ordered a strawberry Daiquiri potion that was good and not too powerful. For dinner we ordered two apps. The Quesadilla with chicken and beef taquitos. The Quesadilla was good nothing too crazy and not exaggerated with onions and paprika like most. The taquitos were great the beef was nice and soft, not on spices too crazy and not. The Quac was really good with the Quesadilla. But the service was a different story. The waiter never came back except after the food was thrown off. At that point, I asked him for a box. What he came back with him and never saw him again for at least 15 minutes when the hostess came and asked what we needed. After 5 minutes later he was back at the check and took my card and ran it. I was a little disappointed with the staff here. The food was good and the staff was bad. They didn't look short so she couldn't owe it. Overall, I expected tbh better, but the Santa Monica Pier is nice place to check something else.

Food is good is delivered pretty fast. Was sitting and like 3-5 minutes after my order, I already got my food. After I finished, it took her like 10 minutes to find out that I was done and would like to pay. But not even a minute before I get my credit card back. It is a tourist area, so it is somewhat more expensive than it would usually be.

We have a place. service was average speed. we have two cocktails and a fajita. that was great. felt like alcohol was less in the cocktail.

Great views, Great food?Great experience . You can?t go wrong here. Our food was served quickly and it was delish!!! More impressive?the restaurant was packed and in no time, we were seated with water and our waiter at our table.
