Always a pleasure to visit Mariposa. A stylish atmosphere with elegance and beautiful booths. The light fixtures add furniture set up make it the ideal place to meet with friends for special occasions. The lobster salad is sooo good. Savoring The chicken broth and bread (that are offered once you sit down) have become iconic rituals when visiting Mariposa.
