    My parents drove in from Wilmington for brunch, and we were excited to try this vegan / vegetarian restaurant. However, our experience was very poor. The server was nice and the ambiance was fine if not a little dark, but the food was pretty bad and they were out of a lot of things. We were excited to try the smoked “lox” but the waiter told us they weren’t making that because they couldn’t get bagels. They also ran out of yoegg and didn’t have quiche. They also didn’t have straws. Seems like they really need to get it together as a lot of items were not available.

    We've eaten dinner at Marian a few times and enjoyed it each time and will be back. This was our first brunch and it was simply outstanding. All four of us enjoyed our food. We wi definitely brunch at Marian again and soon. Please, get a soy creamer for coffee. Almond milk is like putting colored water in your coffee...little color and no taste. :-)

    The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Although it's hard to choose a favorite, the sorbet flight at the end of the meal was so elegant. Our server was friendly, attentive, and did an excellent job of answering questions. I can't wait to try more of the menu. This meal was truly memorable. Thank you to the outstanding team at Marian.

    Whether you’re vegan or a meat lover, you’re in for a treat! Everything was absolutely phenomenal. As a vegan, I celebrated my birthday here with three meat-eating friends, and we all loved it. The Oyster Rockefeller was a standout favorite, and for tapas, we enjoyed the potato croquettes, meatball, bread service, tacos, and Caesar salad. For mains, we had the Wellington and the pasta—both were fantastic. Dessert was just as impressive with sorbet, plus a special Bananas Foster cake as a birthday treat. We highly recommend this spot—you won’t be disappointed!
