the first time i had an "south african burger," was at maria's and i haven't had a better one since. the south africanburgeris normalburgerpatty with cheese, bacon, bbq sauce and a pineapple ring and it is my favoriteburgerof all time..easily, and maria's makes a mean one. elsewhere, most call it a hawaiian burger, but the first time i had ever heard of one was after eating it at maria's so i am very thankful for that experience. besides thatburgeri have tried a number of other items and it has all been really, really good. everyone that i have ever eaten there with has raved about it, and if you dine there you will be hearing similar praise as you eat. it is always packed, but there is a reason!
