This was a special dinner with my family in town, so we wanted to take them to one of our favorite restaurants. Our server Cindy was so kind, personable, and attentive! She truly made the whole experience so special. All of the food was delicious, especially the Moroccan pie and the beef cheeks, and it arrived promptly -- we were never kept waiting. The intimate atmosphere and elegant decor of Mariposa are two of the biggest draws for us. We'll be back the next time we feel like getting fancy and celebrating.

Staff was great. Truly great. The rooms are a little loud when multiple tables are set. The outside area looked very nice. The appetizers and salads were extremely good. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the burger with fries. The shrimp and grits were OK at best. We only ate half of the burgers. The fries were on point.
