    The starters were good. We ordered steaks. Sirloin cut was good but Rump steaks were bit chewy. The expectation for the price was not so great. Men’s toilet was really untidy and there was no toilet seat as well. The serving staff were friendly and very helpful. Only thing positive was the service..
    Santa Maria del SurResponded today
    Hi Dharshi, Thank you for your feedback. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the starters and that our team took good care of you—great service is something we always strive for! We’re sorry to hear that the rump steak wasn’t quite to your liking. It’s a leaner cut compared to sirloin, but it should still be tender and flavorful, so we appreciate your input. As for the men’s restroom, we always keep it clean and well-maintained, including having a toilet seat in place. However, we’ll double-check to ensure everything is in order for future guests. We appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back for a better experience next time. Best, Santa Maria del Sur Team

    Loved it. Yesterday was our first time there and we will certainly be going back and recommending it to our friends. The Focaccia is probably the best I’ve ever had.

    It's about 10 years between my last visit and this, and it's maintained its excellent quality food. The surroundings are really nice now - white tablecloths, intimate lighting and lovely artwork. A lovely secret restaurant treat.
    Santa Maria del SurResponded today
    Hi Jeremy, Wow—10 years between visits, and we’re so glad to hear that the quality is still just as excellent! It means a lot to us that you enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere, especially the white tablecloths, lighting, and artwork. Thank you for your kind words, and we hope to see you again much sooner next time! Best, Santa Maria del Sur Team

    Food was excellent! My only gripe is I reserved a table in the main area and NOT the window but was seated next to the window and it was freezing.
    Santa Maria del SurResponded today
    Hi, Thank you for your review! We’re really glad you enjoyed the food—that means a lot to us! We’re sorry to hear that your seating wasn’t as comfortable as expected.

    Good food. Attentive but not intrusive service. Pleasant informal atmosphere. And dog friendly. This was our second visit, for lunch, having previously visited for dinner. Our experience on both occasions was excellent.
