    A hidden gem in Cumming, featuring a delight experience of Latin countries fusion. My business luncheon at the Santa Maria was my first time experience that exceeded expectations. SM's menu is complex, and to some who may be used to standard cuisine, can be a tad intimidating. However, I encourage you to try something non-traditional. I tried the Huarache Chilango, with steak. It was an absolute delightful experience. I will order it again. The atmosphere is also tastefully done. This is a place to take a date ,or your better half, and is a great place for a business meeting. The service and staff are friendly and make you feel welcome. I will be back.

    The atmosphere is outstanding, and the service matches the setting. We were pleased with everything we had, and the drinks were reasonably priced. I would recommend.

    Amazing food, drinks, and service every time. Our new favorite place. From the tapas to the churrasco to the seafood to the oysters. So good.

    First time visiting and it didn't disappoint. Short wait after reservation time and tables for two are really too small for many tapas at once, but those were the only "negatives" I could find. First, the service was spectacular. Everyone was at the top of their game and seemed to enjoy being there. Live music was a pleasant surprise. The food came out incredibly quick and each dish we sampled was wonderful. I got hooked on elote when we lived in Texas and this version was very tasty. I am fairly boring in my food preferences so I stick to "normal" dishes like shrimp and the ribs. But there is plenty for the more adventurous and exotic diners to choose from that I'm sure are just as wonderful. Cocktails were expensive but not moreso than any other fine dining restaurant. All in all, it's a great addition to the Cumming City Center. We will return!

    The live entertainment would’ve probably been enjoyed if we didn’t want to have a conversation with anybody at our table. We were on the other side of the restaurant from the live entertainment and i could not hear the person talking next to me.  it turned out to be miserable although we had great service and the food was delicious. We just could not have a conversation. This was a Saturday evening.
