   Reserved outside seating and on arrival host placed us inside and next to the kitchen, had plenty of seats outside and didn’t want to accommodate for some reason. When I asked if we could be seated outside, she said they had too many reservations like??? I made a reservation as well for outside. After insisting and showing her the reservation was able to get a table outside. Besides that the food was amazing and our waitress Marcia was very attentive and helpful.

   Our party of four ordered the masas, lechón asado ropa vieja and something else I don’t remember but it was al delicious and plentiful. The mojitos and white sangria just as good. This is my fifth time visiting Marabú and always walk away Happy

   Great food, excellent service and super nice place. Even delayed for almost 2 hours because of a traffic congestion (2 hours in an Uber for a 10’ route because of an event, maybe marathon not sure) they gave us a wonderful table and we enjoyed a really excellent experience!

   I recently dined at Marabu and, unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype. The food was bland and unremarkable; I've had better meals at cheaper restaurants. The service was slow and purely transactional, lacking any warmth or personal touch. It felt somewhat mechanical and matter-of-fact. Four people ate here and not one said the food was good. Each had a drink, ordered 2 appetizers for the table (and the yuca fries and the plantains were the best part of the whole meal), and 1 main course per. We spent $300 since they add a mandatory 18% gratuity to the bill. Overall, I can't understand the buzz around this place. It seems like just another regular mall restaurant. I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a memorable dining experience.
