    Perhaps the perfect place to enjoy truly authentic, Rhode Island / Italian-American culinary masterpieces. My wife and I stopped in for a date night, and to our delight, were blown away by how great this place was. Their ingredients were perfect, thier EVOO was excellent, smooth, fresh and balanced, with a light green glow, pefect for mopping up with their just-right crusty italian bread to start things off. My Nana, God rest her soul, may be upset with me because I liked their Braciola entree, as much as how I remeber hers to be (sorry Nana). The Braciola rested upon a perfect-sized dollop of Polenta with the perfect consistency and creaminess. The tomato sauce/gravy that blanketed atop the Braciola/Polenta was perfectly balanced, perfectly portioned, and infused with the Braciola's goodness, and was also just as good, if not better than my Nana's was. Our server was super courteous, friendly, informative and attentive. The setting/atmosphere was everything and more than as advertised. I could keep going on and on. I'm not a person who typically leaves reviews, but this dinner experience was so good tonight, and the food was so tasty, I thought it appropriate to give Maria's what I intend to be a great review, and strongly recommend dining here often !!!

    Every single item we ordered was perfection! The calamari, the beet salad, fish special, the raviolis, side mash potatoes and the dessert (bread pudding) was the best I have had! The service was excellent. My only issue was that once my friend and I were done eating, we stayed a bit catching up and celebrating her birthday, a waitress kept coming every couple of minutes staring at us ( all the tables around us were empty)!

    The dining experience at Maria’s Cucina is top notch. The old style of the Victorian home in which the restaurant is located is warm and welcoming. The food was delicious and the wait was so very cheerful and accommodating.

    My wife and I enjoyed a lunch here the other day and were very impressed with the whole experience. The atmosphere is terrific. The wait staff are exceptional and they work as a team very well. The food never disappoints in fact it is exceptional. This is on our regular restaurant list and we look forward to our next visit.

    It was my sons’s 21st birthday celebration and we had told the restaurant. While we were greeted with a Happy Birthday at reception, there was no acknowledgment of such from our waitress . They didn’t even put a candle in the desserts we ordered! It was a special night & it clearly wasn’t a good choice for a celebration. Very disappointed. Your child turns 21 once & it’s a big deal.
