The deconstructed tiramisu. Absolutely unreal. Still thinking about it days later. Definitely a spot I'd keep going back to ✨”
★★★★★via Google“I heard a lot about this place from word of mouth and wanted to try it since a long while. We finally got the opportunity to havd a dinner meal here. We were quite excited for the seafood paella, however, it was unsatisfactory for the price quoted for the same. The taste of the dish was not appealing at all and the sea food was bland. We also ordered charred octopus which was all-in-all a nice flavour but a bit chewy. However, we loved the mushroom arugula flatbread which was mouthwatering, and scrumptious. We concluded the meal with the tiramisu which is one of the best we have had in a while and it compensated for the other underwhelming dishes. The atmosphere can get a bit noisy, as the tables are quite adjacent to each other making it difficult to have wholesome conversations.”
★★★★★via Google“It was our first visit to this beautiful restaurant though living very close by. We came here for dinner to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We started with Classic Margarita and Pasqua Pinot Grigio wine. Then we had Kale & Brussel Sprouts, Coca De Setas, Healthy Greens, Parmesan Truffle Fries, Paella de Verduras, Chicken & Wild Mushrooms Paella and Linguine Pesto. The wine and food was excellent though Veg Paella could have better since we eat quite often in Spain. The service was excellent thanks to Captain Vivek. The staff was very helpful and courteous. The décor was classy and ambiance top notch. Advance reservation is highly recommended. Worth visiting for Spainish cuisine…”

The decor is done pretty nicely and there is warmth about this place. Tried 2-3 cocktails and its definitely done brilliantly. Food is brilliantly done, plating is great. One must visit here.”

They’ve got a whole menu dedicated to truffle lovers which is great if you’re into that, but I’m not really a truffle person so it wasn’t totally my thing. The edamame was a no. the fries were good and the crispy cauliflower was super yummy Had the berry blast which was nice and refreshing! For desserts, we tried the tiramisu and the chocolate soufflé, both were really good, but I’d definitely go with the soufflé Overall, the ambience was nice, just depends on how much you enjoy truffle!”
★★★★★via Google“Decent place but it’s quite overpriced considering the quality of the food. Cocktails were okay but was disappointed by the food considering the hype I heard about it. The issue is consistency mostly. Retain food items were great while others were just plain bad. And the bad items were just poorly executed. I’ve travelled to Spain a fair bit while in college and I felt that the place was quite hit and miss with the menu. Still was a decent experience. Just not a memorable one”
★★★★★via Google“I recently dined at La Loca Maria with my husband and we had an amazing experience! We started with the Pineapple Basil Fizz mocktail, which was refreshing and tasty. Our appetizers were a hit - the Crispy Cauliflower Tacos were flavorful and addictive, and the Coca de Queso Brie (a crispy flatbread topped with brie cheese, charred grapes, walnuts, and caramelized onions) was a delightful combination of flavors and textures. For mains, we had the Paella de Verduras, which was delicious. My husband had the Grilled Chicken Steak, which he enjoyed. We also indulged in their special Black Truffle menu, trying the Cacio e Pepe Pasta with white sauce and black truffle, which was rich and decadent. Overall, we had a fantastic meal and would definitely recommend La Loca Maria for a flavorful and satisfying dining experience.”
★★★★★via Google“We had an excellent birthday lunch here. Everyone felt the food was very good. The pork and the paella and the stuffed capsicum was really good. The starters were also good and the crab was very good ( I cannot not eat such a wonderful intelligent creature, but the world does!). The drinks got a thumbs up from everyone especially the red wine sangria. Atmosphere is really nice and we got a round table which is always the best for chatting. No complaints. The deconstructed tiramisu was special.”
