Review is only for dessert...... We had been craving a chocolate souffle and Marica didn’t disappoint. It was hot, light and flavorful.

My girlfriend and I decided to have a nice dinner, and this was our 2nd time eating here. We had an absolutely phenomenal experience our first time, and it was no different tonight. If you're looking for an intimate dining experience, Marica is the place for you. I've had some of the best food here, and the reason is because they have perfected the little things. It's the minor details on their dishes that they knock out of the park every time.

10/10 service, the servers were wonderful and attentive! The food...lacking. Steak was overcooked, asparagus was boiled and placed on the plate aka no flavor and similarly the seafood stew with a 20hr broth was all but flavorless and watery. Would definitely not eat here again. But the servers at amazing!

Both the server and person running food for us was amazing. They sat us even though their kitchen was closing soon, and the food was so amazing. Would 100% come back here in a heartbeat. Very cute interior as well Mussels appetizer and Korean ribs with gochujang/bbq sauce are a must

Look no further for a special place to have date night or cozy meal with excellent food and great prices. I may regret authoring this review as will never get another table. Marica offers an intimate space where the owner cares for customers personally while her husband runs the kitchen. Cocktails are solid and very reasonably priced for the Bay Area. The mesquite grilled shrimp appetizer was elegantly and generously presented with a mildy spicy and smoky flavor. Might just be the best grilled shrimp I’ve ever tasted - plump and tender, perfectly cooked with a grilled lemon on the side for adding citrus notes. Fish stew was delightful with intense bisque flavors that run long on the palate. The shrimp and white fish can benefit from being added later as slightly over cooked. But hey, I can find fault with anything. Swordfish in lemon beurre blanc was cooked just right and not salty as seems to be the trend. Asparagus perfectly cooked and delicately coated in pistou (pesto without pine nuts) sauce. Creme brûlée was silky in texture with deep vanilla notes, delicately covered with a thin caramelized orange flavored sugar crust and blackberries. Chocolate soufflé exuded bittersweet chocolate notes with light texture, topped by excellent vanilla ice cream which my wife raved about. Total bill $135 for 2 that included a salad, Manhattan, Old Fashioned and tax. Giving 5 stars balancing quality and price. Can’t wait to go back!
