This was our second time eating at Mariposa and both times we really enjoyed our dinner there. The service was excellent and the food was delicious, with some great menu items both times. The duck arepas and Moroccan pie were excellent. We’d definitely recommend Mariposa and will be back next time we’re in Charlotte.

Kathy greeted us with a “big hello” and smile at the front as always! She is such a great representative for the beginning of a great dining experience. My friend and I really enjoyed the onion/mushroom soup. Delish! We only got a cup and we wish we had each ordered a bowl. Ha! Our chicken salad sandwich was delicious also. Yum!

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.
