My go to is a hash egg and cheese on a croissant sandwich. Always delicious, fast and friendly staff.

Great food, fantastic service, and fast paced without feeling impersonal. I was really surprised with how much I liked the place considering how many diners there are in RI. read more

Maria's Breakfast & Lunch - Fruity Pebble pancakes special - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lincoln, Rhode Island

I've been here a few times and it's pretty convenient considering I live right down the street which is definitely an upside, but the problem is most of the employees are very rude and really don't have a sense of urgency. That's probably because the owners pay them minimum wage and no one has a decency to leave them. Decent tips.. I am a server at a restaurant so I always take care of my server whenever I go out to eat. That being said, I think the food is inconsistent. Sometimes I'll order French toast and it's super dry and old sometimes cold, but I don't say anything because the server will drop it off and then run away and not check in at all. The main reason why I'm leaving this review is that the place closes at 2 o'clock can you at least open until three maybe four I mean it's a breakfast brunch spot.. 2 o'clock is way too early. I suggest opening up an hour later and closing an hour later. It would drive a lot more sales and a lot more people in just a suggestion. read more

This is the first time I've been here because a friend of mine recommended it for breakfast. I had scrambled eggs with white toast and home fries. The food was excellent. Everything came out hot and done right. The portions were a good size. I must say that even though the place was packed, the service was very good. They were very attentive. They made sure that we had our coffee cups filled in that we had everything needed. The atmosphere was decent, it was a typical breakfast place, but it was bigger inside than I thought, and the booths were comfortable. Everything was also clean. We had the early bird special, and it was only 6.95 for the breakfast itself. I'll definitely be back! read more

I had a turkey and avocado panini with sweet potatoes fries. It was hot and delicious! I have been here for breakfasts as well. I have never had a bad meal. The people are friendly and parking is easy. I will continue to go here. read more

Maria's has become a Sunday staple . We've been going to Maria's since they were located in Pawtucket . Despite being busy on a regular basis they have amazing service. The food always comes out hot and fresh . The waitresses are always polite and offer coffee constantly . My usual go to is Order C with scrambled eggs and wheat toast . I've also gotten a sausage, egg, and cheese on a toasted everything bagel before which is delicious. I would even recommend the pesto chicken panini with fries. I will always come back to Maria's for an amazing breakfast . Any seat is a great seat from the bar stools , to the tables, to the booths . read more

Maria's breakfast is a classic breakfast in Pawtucket. They moved location but it was only down the street, less than one minute away. As always, it had a long wait time and was very busy. Our wait time for a table of 4 was 20 minutes. The wait time for our food to come out was also considerably long. I ordered a combo meal C with no toast. It was average and simple. The restaurant is clean and new~ still has the remodeling new look~ all staff are trying their best given that there is always lots of people, many orders, and long wait times. The waiting area is small, and many times, you do have to be outside waiting. read more

Before you go here just know they add automatic gratuity and they have a surcharge if you use your CC. I'm putting that out that because I personally don't like places that do that and I didn't do my research before going to this spot for the first time. ALSO just for reference (not sure if the tip is added because of the size of the party) it was a total of 6 of us BUT we split the bill in two - me & my mom on one and my sister with her family on the other. The service was good, our server was attentive and friendly. We ordered two mango margs, they tasted like cough medicine so I sent them back, she handled the issue flawlessly. We got the ego martinis as a replacement. The martinis were good, sweet and thick. The place itself was cute and warm but the food was kind of bland. I got the steak bomb Hollandaise special, priced at about $21. The shaved steak was dry and flavorless, the eggs cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was tasteless. It looked good presentation wise but my tastebuds were getting nothing. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and this place did not meet the mark for me. read more

I've been going to Maria's for years since their previous pawtucket location and let me tell you I was afraid that while their transition to the new location, they might lose their touch. But nope! Maria's still remains #1 breakfast diner and the only one i reccomend to anyone in the area. Their waffles with cinnamon pecans and chocolate chip pancakes- to die for! Best homefries ever and i love their portuguese omelette. read more

Found this place by chance for a girl's day. Place is spacious! Food was great, servers were all very friendly. Would go back for sure..

Superior customer service! Excellent server and actually the guys out in the parking lot controlling traffic were great too! The food is very good. You get generous portions and things are cooked the way you ask. We had pancakes, scrambled eggs, a bbq chicken panini and a turkey BLT avocado panini. Great food. The fries and home fries could be a bit better... prices are good.. bathrooms are clean and bright. Place is very organized! Overall very good breakfast place if you are in the area! read more

Great breakfast place. Waitresses were awesome. They kept offering us coffee. I had eggs Benedict and home fries. Delish. Would highly recommend. The price is very affordable as well read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for years. The restaurant is a good size. There are booths, bar seats, and high tables. Occasionally there is a bit of a wait but it moves pretty quickly. The food is great. I love to get the lumberjack to share with someone because it has a little bit of everything. This is my favorite breakfast place. read more

Maria's Breakfast & Lunch - Lumberjack meal - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lincoln, Rhode Island

best French fries and tenders in the world :D could need some salt though.Mauro is the best

Can't say enough good things about this diner! Staff were kind and attentive. Food was AMAZING, my husband and I both cleared our plates.

I came here for brunch with my boyfriend and it was pretty good! The vanilla chai was absolutely delicious, and the food was pretty good. I had an omelette (mediterranean) and it was good, but the home fries could've been more seasoned. I also got sourdough toast, and it wasn't my favorite, and tasted like sourdough but has the texture of a white bread. The service was great, and the waitress we had was funny and personable. Had the classic diner feel, and I would recommend for a decently priced breakfast or brunch! I want to try their pancakes/french toast/waffles because I saw others plates and they looked like they would taste great! read more

Meeting a new friend and checking out Maria's in the same moment, risky? Not even close! This classic counter and dining room long time eatery, not only lived up to reputation, but exceeded it. The service, food selections, speed of getting you hot food were beyond exception, and my coffee never dipped below a half-a-cup! .This cash only restaurant is worth the visit. Dont miss it!! read more

So happy Maria's reopened. Simple food inexpensive now serving specials and drinks. Busy family environment with high energy

My friends and I have always loved Maria's and we still do! Fast and friendly service as well as great portions of food.

Was so excited to try since the reopening- Unfortunately we were very disappointed. The food wasn't as good as the old Maria's (specifically the pancakes) and the prices were crazy high for what we got. The vanilla chai didn't come with the whip cream or cinnamon anymore and was half the original size but double the price. My daughter used their bathroom and there was piss all over the floor- we won't be back. read more

Place looks absolutely beautiful!! Food and service were amazing!! I was so happy to see all the same faces.

Service was ok. I ordered a chirizo omelet. I was lucky if there were 3 pieces of meat in it. I also ordered a cinnamon coffee assuming it was brewed. When I got it, it was so sweet I couldn't drink it because they don't brew it they use flavored syrup. I am a diabetic! I wish they had told me ahead of time it was syrup. I will not be returning. read more

I should have known how packed diners would be on a Sunday around brunch time. Modern Diner was our first option but unfortunately, it was way too crowded. There was a line of about three parties out the door, and we really didn't want to wait. A quick Yelp search led us to Maria's, which was also quite busy, but we ended up getting a seat within ten minutes. They have a convenient, spacious parking lot on the corner of Smithfield and Chandler, right next to the diner. The servers are ridiculously efficient and so, so nice. I saw one woman who was taking an order on the phone while simultaneously weaving through the counter/kitchen space and serving other customers. A true hero! I could have easily gotten a filling breakfast for $5-$6, but I decided to go big or go home, and ordered the lumberjack special. A heaping portion of home fries, 2 eggs cooked how you like them, bacon & sausage, toast, AND 2 pancakes for $12? Amazing. My favorite part of the meal was probably the crunchy, salty home fries and the crispy pancakes drenched in butter and powdered sugar. It was bustling inside, and after visiting, I now know why. Maria's is an awesome breakfast place with a variety of options, great prices, and some of the best service I've ever had. Last-minute things to remember: 1) They are cash only. 2) Don't be afraid to squeeze into the entrance and let one of the waitresses know that you're here waiting to be seated. If it's really crowded and you wait outside to be polite and give other people space, another party may totally cut to the front. True story! read more

I used to love calling up Maria's and ordering breakfast here, I'm right down the road from them so the days I was feeling lazy it was my go to comfort food! I got an egg white omelette like I always have but this time it was so bad. When I say it was fried to death - I mean it was that brown thin over fried egg throughout the omelette. So unfortunate. I ordered a side of fruit too and the grapes had giant seeds in them. Not somewhere I plan on going back to for a long time if ever unfortunately. read more

Maria's Breakfast & Lunch - Their version of an egg white omelette. It was so gross and fried to death inside and out. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lincoln, Rhode Island

A delicious, comfortable, and efficient breakfast spot that gets their meats from Central Falls Provisions and always cooks your eggs just right. The home fries are the crunchy deep-fried kind, which is a massive plus in my book. A rotation of delicious breakfast specials, such as Fruity Pebble Pancakes! Maria's is cash only, but there is an ATM on site for those that forget. I must say, every time I've been the waitresses have all lovely, zipping around the restaurant refilling coffee and water without being asked. This place hums, buzzes, and clangs with the sound of a good-old-fashioned breakfast place, that keeps on keeping on. Go eat here, you won't be sad that you did. read more

Not Like The Old Maria's. Was not impressed. First of all the prices for breakfast are pretty expensive. The home fries looked and tasted like they were frozen and the eggs were very small . My first time there I ordered the special which was two eggs, home fries, toast, and was not impressed. I also had a hot coffee that was sitting around while, or it was a cheap brand of coffee. Parking is also another problem here. I do have to say the service was good, and the place looked very nice, read more

Amazing place for Sunday breakfast. Crazy busy! Had to wait for a seat, but super friendly service and great food. Definitely go again!

It breaks my heart to write this because I feel so bad for the server. Yesterday 4/29/2024 I witnessed a server being yelled at by who I assumed was the boss/owner in front of others. Whatever had happened for the server who looked like she was about 12 did I don't think this should have been attended to in front of customers or other co-workers. Food may be good but sorry will not go back. Servers get mistreated enough from customers they do not need to be mistreated by bosses. read more

I came by here before around 3 years ago. They don't do credit cards which is a problem transmission to hundreds of others who may not be washing their hands. I came here again during the pandemic 4.27.2021. Still all cash so don't come here if you are expecting to normally use your credit card. Food: Portuguese Omelette. Cheese, onions, red bell peppers and chorizo. Sounded good since I a Chorizo fan. It was not that great. The combination was not that appetizing as it sounded. The omelette got lost in the cheese and onions without actually tasting the chorizo (Star of the show on my opinion). Home fries were cooked nice and crisp. I liked it. I ordered the raisin toast. Cooked properly. I asked for the password for the WiFi and the waitress said they could accommodate. If you are looking to use paperless payment on your phone or credit card while dining in to use the WiFi, this may not be your place. The food is not bad if you want to check this place out. read more
