Monday, 9/30/24 Review #498 "Where everybody knows, your name...And they're always glad you came!" This is another Local diner for Breakfast and Lunch in Almont called Maria's Place. My niece is a local in Almont and while visiting her for the day back in November 2023, she treated Me to a delicious and plentiful lunch here inside Maria's Place at 141 S. Main Street in downtown Almont. No street parking therefore park in back and use their convenient back door. The deco inside is old fashioned so check out the views all the way around. This restaurant is certainly a family place of traditional dining serving large portions too. The Menus are designed with Big Appetites in mind, so enjoy and clean your plate or take the rest home. The staff truly enjoy their jobs as they smile! Create Your Own Omelet with 3 eggs, 12" wrap sandwiches, appetizers, salads, grilled sandwiches, Homemade Soups and Chili, Breakfast Bowls, Big Burgers with .99 add on. Crazy Big Burgers come with fries. Kid's Menu has several options that My Great Nephew enjoyed too plus his chocolate milk. :-) And a coloring book with crayons to use. Check out Today's Special Board & Dessert Board too for an example from the photo I posted. Maria's Place serves Special Large Meals. So eat lunch as a dinner meal since their dining hours are 7 AM - 2 PM, Monday through Sunday. I enjoyed My visit with the local efficient and fast employees and the Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup and a Chicken Salad Croissant that was loaded with fresh chunks of chicken meat. The place has a outstanding atmosphere, hard working staff with a passion, and delicious lunch. I still need to get back here and enjoy their famous and stuffed omelets! Smaczne I say and Local they are! Phone: (810) 798-3308 for carry out orders too. NO Reservations. This Business is listed on the DDA list - Downtown Development Authority. Sincerely, Karen N.

One of the best small town breakfast places around. I've been coming to Maria's for years and the food and service are consistently excellent. I got a veggie omelette made with egg whites and it was stuffed full of a variety of vegetables and Swiss cheese. I got tomato slices instead of the hashbrowns and rye toast. My friend got a western omelette and he was able to substitute his hashbrowns for a side of applesauce. We both enjoyed our breakfast and will continue to come to Maria's when passing thru Almont

An OLD fashioned style diner. Right in middle of tiny downtown almont. Went with mini chili omelette- with raw onions. Tasted great. Biscuit was really good also. Service was excellent! Easily a early 1900 hundreds building. Apparently the owner cooks on Thursdays- spaghetti was today's special and though it was before 11 am quite a few plates of it were coming out of the kitchen. Perhaps next time!

This has been a long time favorite of ours and now that we live closer we can come here more often. We normally get breakfast and it's always hot and delicious. The servers are always polite and very attentive. The decor is quaint and cozy. I would highly recommend a visit to Maria's.

Great breakfasts! Best place in town to eat. They are usually busy on the weekends but we've never had to wait for a table.

Outstanding American traditional food. And the servings are big, expect to take some home with you. The service was great, and this place was packed. But once you try the food you'll understand why. Next time we are in the area we will certainly stop by.

What a darling little place. It looks like maybe it used to be a house...really cute. Fast, friendly service. Very hometown atmosphere. Coffee is hot, pancakes are great! Stop and give it a try on your way up North sometime..don't get another fast food thing you eat in the car! Slow down at Maria's!
