Para Maria - Crossing

The food leaves to be desired here. They are definitely not passionate about making good food. Not a come back...

The overall ambience is spectacular. The menu has a wide assortment of dishes. From the appetizers to dinner, everything was tasty some of the best food we've had in Boston. The restaurant is reasonably priced and I highly recommend dining here.

We have been here three times, and Para Maria tops itself each time. We've come twice on holidays. The menu is fantastic. The drinks are well prepared. Service with Sebastian is top quality. I will go again soon.

Simply terrible service. We had a party of nine and waited forever for our food, which although it is a large party we had been to multiple restaurants in Boston this weekend and the waits were all at least half of what this was. During our time there, 4 of us ordered coffees that were never once refilled, and you would’ve thought that cream was a rare gem. We only ever got a tiny cup to split across the 4 of us and weren’t given an opportunity to request more because our waitress was always missing. This goes for water (or the lack thereof) as well. When the food came, multiple orders were messed up and the manager who served it did not apologize once about the mix up’s- in fact she rolled her eyes when having to pick the food back up. She at least recovered with a smile afterwards. One of us that was given the wrong bread had to wait 15 minutes for a bun while everyone else ate, despite us asking 4 separate times for literally just a bun. We eventually had to go back and ask the chef to just give us a bun, and the waitress saw and tried to say the reason it took so long was because they were “warming it up”… for 15 minutes. Dont lie. Staff was incredibly unprofessional, the manager never once apologized for any of the incidents, and the restaurant was empty despite the waitstaff being so preoccupied you would think they were slammed.
