Marie’s

I want to love it here & I believe this spot has the potential, but there were just a few things that could've been improved. First, the waitress told me after I asked for food /drink recommendations & explanations that she was new but I wish she brought over another person to assist as it was a slow night. There were long pauses as she had to go over a few things with who I'm guessing is her manager throughout my dining experience. But, moving on to the food- the pork chop was delicious & the chicken Parmesan. The portions were huge, and the chicken Parmesan didn't come with pasta or vegetables but we left full. It just felt incomplete. We ordered the happy hour spritz and meegherita & had to reorder. They weren't really balanced & bitter So we asked for a basic margarita.The good part was the decor. Clean, nicely lit, modern but still homey. Also, there's a backyard which would be nice for warmer weather.

We like Marie's! Me and the boo have been twice and enjoyed our dinner both times. Really love the chop cheese ravioli, the flavor is just there. I do think it should be listed as an appetizer or add more ravioli to be a main it's just not a big enough portion lol my bf likes the chicken parm and I tried the lamb ragu and another pasta I forgot but it was all good. I say come and give it a try.

Here for Valentine's Day and they have a pre fixed lacking most of the popular items. They wouldn't allow substitutions and didn't notify of the pre fixe when booked. Wasted trip

Cute spot. The food was tasty. Service was good but it was empty. Came on a weekday. I would return.

Update- even worse than I thought. My friend ordered Spaghetti Bolognese and we realized they served her lamb ragu instead and she doesn't eat lamb

Service is great--the pastas were absolutely insane along with the clams and the steak! We got some mini martinis for happy hour that were spot on, honestly just a fun neighborhood spot in bushwick that we'll be frequenting!

I had a birthday dinner at Marie's with my best friend this Sunday. The restaurant was very pretty and the staff friendly and kind. We shared the chopped cheese ravioli, lamb patty pappardelle and the eggplant parm. The food was generally good but it felt like the meats (in the ravioli and the pappardelle) was overcooked and felt a bit chewy, especially in the ravioli which is surprising since it's supposed to be their star dish. We also noted that it was my birthday and the waitress even stopped by to check so I did think they might provide a small birthday dessert (like many restaurants do) but they didn't. Not really a negative but I wouldn't flag this spot for a special occasion. This is a solid spot and a gem in the neighborhood and we'll be back for dinner.

I love Marie's! I highly recommend - I really enjoy coming here for a great vibe and delicious food. The staff is so friendly and welcoming every time I come and the whole restaurant has a cozy but casual upscale decor with a beautiful back patio.I have tried many menu items including the focaccia and meatballs. The pasta is delicious with lots of great sauce options (my favorite is cacio e Pepe). I personally love Al denté pasta, but if you don't then I recommend asking them to cook the pasta a little longer. I normally am not big on tiramisu but this dulce de leche one is a great combination of light cake and thick cream.Highly recommend!

This place deserves 0 stars. We made a reservation for Valentine's Day to try a local restaurant. When we arrived, they handed us a prefixed menu, which was not advertised on their website. The menu was $85 per person and had zero substitutions. We decided to give them the benefit of the doubt. As they sat us, almost all the tables were occupied, and many had their first course. We placed our order and immediately noticed they turned up the music to a deafening volume. On top of this, they played songs like "shake that a**" for a room full of people trying to enjoy a nice Valentine's Day dinner. Clearly, they did not know their audience. We asked the wait staff to turn down the music, which was ignored. The dinner service was chaotic to put it nicely. Our courses came out 50 minutes apart, stone cold, and mediocre at best. Other tables that had been seated before us were still not served. The vast majority of the guests were clearly frustrated and dissatisfied with the experience. As they served our dessert, they offered it "to go" since they clearly overbooked and wanted to turn tables. We elected to stay and subsequently watched three tables be comped their meal because they had only received two of the four courses over the 2.5 hours they had been there. The server had the audacity to still ask for a tip from these tables which clearly made the guests uncomfortable. This was a horrible experience from start to finish. The surprise prefix menu, the miserable service, and the mediocre food. Support other businesses over this place.

This place deserves 0 stars. We made a reservation for Valentine's Day to try a minority owned restaurant that was well reviewed by a few food bloggers I follow. When we arrived, they handed us a prefixe menu, which was not advertised on their IG or on their website. The menu was $85 per person and had zero substitutions, but we had no backup plan & its Valentine's Day so any reasonable alternatives would be booked.As they sat us, almost all the tables were occupied with many diners having their first course. We placed our order immediately. While waiting, we noticed they turned up the music to a high volume. On top of this, they played Kendrick & Future for a room full of people trying to enjoy a nice Valentine's Day dinner. They clearly didn't understand the assignment.The service moved at a glacial pace. Our courses came out 45+ minutes apart and the courses were mediocre at best. Sometimes, my wife & I had our plates come separately, which added to an already terrible experience.As they served our dessert, they offered it "to go" since they clearly overbooked and needed to turn tables. We elected to stay and subsequently watched the table next to us be comped their meal because they had been waiting for their main course for over 2 hours. They were gracious but clearly upset.This was a horrible experience from start to finish. The surprise prefix menu, which featured almost ZERO menu items from their full menu, really set a poor tone for the evening. The miserable service, randomly spicy mocktails and the mediocre food cemented the abysmal nature of this dining experience.
