Para Maria embodies the heartwarming experiences of making and breaking bread with family and friends. It is not just a place to eat, but also the sound of laughter and conversation floating above a patio at sunset. It's toasting to the weekend with an ice cold margarita after a long day at work. The sweet drip of a melting paleta. The smell of smoked meats and vegetables on the grill and the lingering spice of the perfect bite that draws you back in for more.

    Food and our waiter were amazing. The berry and strawberry lemonades were not great: the fruits were warm .

    We were early for our reservation and offered to sit at the bar until our table was ready. They forgot about us and ended up seating us at the same empty table that was empty when we arrived. Food was good, music and ambiance were lovely.

    My husband took me to the chestnut hill location for my bday and our food was amazing. Since we had family in town for the holidays, we decided to go to the Tremont st location. It did not disappoint. The escargot were as good as any I had in Paris, a lot of flavor. We also got the French onion soup which was delicious and fitting for a cold Boston evening. Lotsssss of cheese! Our entree was a duck and mushroom risotto that they split for us- also very good. We will definitely be back but probably for special occasions as it is on the expensive side.

    Loved loved the food. Ambiance, drinks, were all very nice, as expected, but everything that came to the table was delicious. I really appreciate the grasp Chef Tatiana has on her food. High-quality, unique, "comfort food" filling. We enjoyed filling our bellies, and will definitely be back!
