  • I tried this place out on my sister's recommendation and came for just some bolognese. I'm not sure if it was just my perception but it seemed like the owners were a little snappy with one another. Perhaps, it was a long day. Observation: they are right next door to Laser Tag and walking in I could hear some obnoxious and illiterate conversations outside, in front of the place. I can imagine that Maru's gets a lot of young and/or disrespectful... OK, let's say "trashy" people in, being loud and annoying. I'm not saying that the laser tag crowd is all trashy, but just by observing the location, I can see that often, this is what would happen to be there... On to the food: the bolognese is Very decent. Not the greatest ever, but it totally does the job. The con for me is the meat. It is quite chewy. Perhaps an upgrade in quality of the meat will improve the taste and overall texture. It's $10 for this dish and I would not mind paying $13-15 if they upgraded the ingredients used. The dish comes with a salad. I did not eat it now (too full) but the vinaigrette was okay. It wasn't spectacular and maybe a little sour.. As if the balsamic used is mixed with white vinegar or if it is just.. Young/not good quality. But, edible and does the job of a free salad. The dish also comes with garlic bread. It is not really the typical, crispy and delicious garlicky bread. It's more of like a dry focaccia soaked in butter/garlic sauce. It's a bit soggy and missing that great garlic bread crunch. It is tasty, but not what I was expecting or looking forward to. Couple of suggestions: -Please do not staple bags so much -- Oh my gosh. -You do not need to put salad leaves in a container and then put it in a paper bag and staple it all around. -There is not need to use SO much foil to wrap up the dressing container. A simple piece of tape across the lid and onto the sides would have been enough. I feel that the paper bag and all that foil and extra plastic bag to put all this stuff in is such a waste and it could save the establishment significant money (and to the customers, the waste) if this step were to be avoided. It's completely excessive. Nice place. I'll come back and try some other stuff. I saw a big dough mixer and I'm hoping that they are putting it to excellent use.
