★★★★★ 5.0 Michael Owens · Jan 2026

My girlfriend and I decided to have a nice dinner, and this was our 2nd time eating here. We had an absolutely phenomenal experience our first time, and it was no different tonight. If you're looking for an intimate dining experience, Marica is the place for you. I've had some of the best food here, and the reason is because they have perfected the little things. It's the minor details on their dishes that they knock out of the park every time.

What a wonderfully relaxing place. The food is delicious and fresh, but more importantly, seasoned and cooked to perfection. An incredible staff too, Alex made our evening perfect. We had the Korean ribs, salads, the seafood stew, mushroom toast and crème brule. For the love of God it was all amazing. So glad it’s in our neighborhood! ,

Review is only for dessert...... We had been craving a chocolate souffle and Marica didn’t disappoint. It was hot, light and flavorful.

★★★★★ 5.0 Chloe Chan · Feb 2026

Reserved online for a birthday dinner and was impressed by the friendly and prompt service! Even though we arrived almost 20 minutes late (whoops), the service staff were very understanding and accommodating. Food was good, although none of it blew us away, but the desserts were especially delicious. The PEI mussels were also very fresh. Be warned, some of these dishes were so popular they already ran out by the time we came at around ~7:20pm (like the chili crab and shoestring fries). Also be careful parking around Oakland, per usual, lest you become another victim of the smashed car window

★★★★★ 5.0 Ashley Kua · Jul 2025

Both the server and person running food for us was amazing. They sat us even though their kitchen was closing soon, and the food was so amazing. Would 100% come back here in a heartbeat. Very cute interior as well Mussels appetizer and Korean ribs with gochujang/bbq sauce are a must
