    Maya inside and upstairs is very pretty red brick cozy atmosphere. We were supposed to eat outside but it was cold and they were very nice to accommodate us as it was crowded but they found a place for us inside. Food was delicious pork belly appetizer is amazing. String beans were delicious, oddly LOL
