Reviews For Las Islas Marias

Place was really great. Came on a Friday night and they had live bands playing. I am not a big fan of seafood but the food was delicious and did not take long to get my order. I would say is a little pricy but a good place with a good atmosphere and vibe to enjoy the music.

First time trying Las Islas Marias. I know it's a popular spot and I've heard of their food plenty of times before. I finally had the opportunity to try it today and it was delicious. The portions are huge. There was plenty of free parking which is usually hard to find on the northside. The service is wonderful. We were a group of 7 and they sat us right away. The only negative is that it's hard to carry on conversations with your party cause it's pretty loud in there. They had musicians playing live music so it's kinda hard to hear over them.
