Cafe de Maria

Have been here twice; lunch on both occasions. They serve international cuisine -- pasta, steaks & salads.. They also have cakes & other pastries. Being situated in Vista Mall inside Gran Europa, it is some distance from downtown CDO. I find that to be one of its charms. The approach from the main entrance of Gran Europa to the cafè somehow gives you a sense that where you're going to is pleasant and peaceful. The view of the trees outside the cafè is very relaxing. The staff are very attentive and friendly. The food portions can be shared; food itself is delightful. Even the waiting time ain't too long. This is a place where I'll probably bring my guests and friends to for a meal, coffee or desserts.

The foods are delicious, staff very attentive and hospitable. Relaxing spot with smoking area while having your drinks. A bit pricey but worth the visit.

Such a savior! Perfect for early birds to savor some great coffee and delectable food selection. Ambiance is amazing and staff are sharp and attentive! Kudos! A must visit here in CDO.

We live nearby so it was a short ride to this well-decorated restaurant. The servers were very accommodating and gave some helpful recommendations on what we might be interested in eating. Their manager was also hands-on, and assisted the servers when they needed help. We ordered the fettuccine, lasagne, NY cheesecake, strawberry mint, and berry ice tea. All were really delicious and worth the price. They were served on custom-made plates and saucers, which showed just how much effort their team put into making the whole experience special. My advice is to share a dessert/pasta next time. They have large servings so you'll definitely feel full after a plate (or even just after half). Hope this place stays open! We'll be back. Had a fun birthday lunch today. (Thanks to my brother for sponsoring the splurge, and to my S/O for accompanying me)

We first tasted the sylvannas as a pasalubong from my papa from work. Out of curiosity and good word, it was worth the visit for the first time yesterday, Mother's Day, to celebrate a little dessert. The accommodating staff showed their smiles through their eyes beyond the mask and simply being there feels home. Thank you for making my mama happy yesterday. We went home satisfied and full of smiles.

I've been here 4x and I'd say the food and coffee never disappoint. I've taken friends my here and they loved it too. Looking forward to tasting more of their menu!

The food is delicious and service wise they're so accommodating. One of my cousin introduced me to Cafe De Maria last year and they meet and exceed my expectations. Hence, I always introduce this cafe to my friends who conducts business meetings most specifically my Muslim friends from Marawi. Not only the ambiance is fantastic and relaxing, but they make sure that the food is "HALAL" The owner is very keen with regards to halal food considering the fact that she's actually an executive chef. She's very friendly and transparent with regards to their food. Their steak was absolutely delicious and it was highlighted from one of the couple celebrities " Mariel and Robin Padilla" One of the best thing I've ever heard from her vision was most of her circle is actually Islam and that's why she's hands on and very keen with regards to the production because she wanted to make a branding that represents the Halal food culture. That's why I entrust and I'm confident to recommend this cafe.

Ambience is great; the service impressive. The wait staff were very attentive to our needs and are very knowledgeable about their products. Their recommendations always on point. Food was great as well, with good value for money. Enjoyed our time here and will definitely come back! :)
