Maria's Greek Restaurant

Outstanding food, service and great attention to detail. Being Greek, we know our country food well. The Octopus chargrilled is fabulous and puréed fave bean compliments the order. Taramousalta when they have it, excellent! Pastichio is fresh made daily and béchamel top, wow. Lamb chops well marinated and Gyro authentic and properly seasoned. Desserts are a must. Try Galatobourico warm, the custard middle is heavenly with/touch of Greek Honey. They also serve Fix Beer. This is the finest blond beer and better than Mythos. Try this family owned restaurant, small and you go there for the food.

Excellent spot for an authentic Greek meal. This place has been around forever me continues to deliver a great meal.I had the gyro platter. It includes a nice salad with olives and shredded feta, French fries right from the frier. Some tisiki and excellent gyro meat. The chicken kabob has all the same stuff as the gyro but with perfectly cooked chicken. For a place to survive this long they have a to be doing something right. What might that be ?pretty much everything. Great service food and ambiance

So you say you like Greek food right? Well if that is the case, you will definitely want to check out Maria's Greek Restaurant. Came to find out that they have been around for quite some time in Miami so they are a very safe bet. Truthfully I had never been to this restaurant but my cousins wanted to try something new so we headed on over. Parking was not a problem but you will need to park on the street and it was somewhat limited so you just may need to park a little further out and walk a bit. Well worth it guys as the food and service were excellent! Upon arrival we were greeted and seated within about 10 minutes. It was very busy which is always a good sign. The restaurant ambiance was nice as it was clean, nicely decorated with a modern feel. Once seated our server ran us through some recommendations, brought us our drinks and we were off to the races. To start things off, we decided to go with the Appetizer Platter as it had a little of everything. We also ordered the grilled octopus for an appetizer as you can go to a Greek restaurant and not try the octopus right? . I have to say everything was very fresh and the octopus was out of this world.Anyway, cruising in to our main courses we decided to go with the Lamb Shank for two of us, the 1/2 Grilled Chicken, the Moussaka and an order of Tzatziki with Pita bread for the whole group. If you are thinking "good grief these guys were hungry", well you would be right! On the drink side we stuck to the house wine which was light but nice. Honestly we really enjoyed all the food, drinks and had a great time as well. You will not be disappointed if you give them a try as we have been back on a few occasions since and it has been just as good. Truthfully I personally think they are one of the better Greek restaurants in Miami. Wishing you all a great time at Maria's! Enjoy and Bon Appétit m'es amis!

Best all around solid Greek food restaurant. Service with a smile. Food is tasty and the portions are generous. The only downside can be parking but most of the time it's not too hard.

Maria's is the definition of excellence as my favorite Greek restaurant in Miami. If you don't know about Maria's, then you have come to the right place to read about it. Everything is delicious. Had not been in a while, but food was as perfect as I remember. Shish Kabob - A+Branzino (fillet) - A++Grilled Octopus - A+++For sides we shared greek salad and roasted potatoes which was plenty. Gorgeous salad with a perfectly balanced dressing to feta ratio. PS: Don't forget to have a Mythos. It is tradition!Service is and has always been amazing. Everyone kind, friendly, and polite. Thank you all!!

This place never disappoints! I had the best chicken of my life tonight. It was so big I had to take half of it home, and I'm not kidding when I say half! You get a really great portion of food for the price, and everyone is always so kind when we go there. 10/10 one of the best hidden gems in Miami!

Good lamb chops and meat gyros, everything else meh. Don't recommend the dessert pastry.

The food, service and ambiance are awesome. . . .Besk Greek Restaurant in Miami ! ! !

H o r r i b l e!!!!!!!!! Please do yourself a favor there are so many good Greek restaurants in Miami . I gave them a second chance just because I live close but this time was the worst one. I did call and spoke to the Manager , everything I picked up was slimy and the lentil soup tasted and look like dirty water . Be careful!
