I always enjoy my meals at Mariposa. The food is good, and I love the popovers, strawberry butter and the broth. The ambiance is lovely and upbeat. And, Buffy provides exemplary service, no netter how many tables she is serving.

The food was so salty and un-edible. Returned for another entree and it was salty too. The popovers were dry and cold. Have been eating at this restaurant for years and it was the worst ever. The waiter was not so great either, when I asked him to take my plate away he just looked at me and went to another table. He didn't understand basic waiter protégée like serve from the right and take away from the left. Must be a new chef who is not too talented. Unfortunately we will not be back.
We come here twice a year and are never disappointed. Marquee was amazing as a server. My only wishes they would bring back the Neiman Marcus chicken salad with the orange soufflé the original dish, not the chicken salad on a bed of lettuce.

I enjoyed a nice, relaxing lunch with my daughter. I love the complementary chicken broth and popovers, and the Parm crusted chicken dish was delicious. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Slow, inattentive service. No bartender; had to be reminded about condiments; meals took longer than usual; poor manners “Do you want the bill now...or maybe some dessert?” Not as professional service as we have received in previous visits.

The food was good, service was delightful. Decor is almost stark, very plain. Prices are definitely to the expensive side. I would tell anyone who asks “food is good but be prepared for a very expensive lunch”.

Weirdly, it wasn't our best visit. I'm there several times a year, including my daughters and I every year for our annual mother daughter Christmas lunch. On this particular visit I ordered the mandarin orange soufflé. I guess I didn't realize this equated to a jiggly jello mold. I was also expecting another popover since the menu mentioned it came with NM bread, not a cranberry muffin. The chicken was completely tasteless. As if I was eating plain shredded chicken. Aren't you known for your chicken salad? Two of my three daughters were never offered refills on tea. It wasn't crazy busy.....I've been in the restaurant business for over 20 year. I do not normally leave reviews as I understand this is a hard job. But for the almost $200 I spent I expect better. Do better Mariposa!!!! Tiffany Bradley 314-440-7761

The salmon tacos left me flat. There was too much cabbage and part of the tacos didn't taste fresh. The actual salmon was good but the rest was blah. I'm sure they can do better with these.

Unfortunately this was disappointing for my first time there. Service was slow even just to be acknowledged and water being brought to the table. The server was very nice but overall the food was mediocre and not sure I ever need to go back.

Alex, our server, was very kind and accommodating. Our food was excellent, and Alex presented me with a huge brownie topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and a candle, for my birthday dessert. My friend hosted me for my birthday, and our venue, Mariposa, was matched by her delightful company!
Mariposa is absolutely fabulous in every way! I hadn't been recently, and the staff welcomed me with such sweet enthusiasm! It was so nice and the food and ambiance were second to none! What a treat to have right in our hometown!!!

Mariposa is my favorite place to have lunch with family and friends. It's a beautiful room, the tables are spaced perfectly apart, the acoustics are wonderful so you are not straining to hear the conversation at your table. The food is always on point. The wait staff are very professional and affable. Mariposa definitely extends the Neiman Marcus experience. I'm so happy to have this hidden gem in our area. It's wise to make a reservation, because it does get busy at lunchtime.

Mariposa is a true delight that brightens the day if you are lucky enough to dine here! The staff is unbelievably welcoming and attentive, the food is fantastic, and the ambiance is beautiful!!!
I was a little annoyed that they tried to seat us practically on top of two other guests when the whole restaurant was empty on my arrival. I kept being told alternate tables were reserved when I too had a reservation. You need to mix in the tables of 2 so there is more room in between OR I need to remember not to go there when there is only 2 in our party.

We were very disappointed about our visit yesterday. It was for my daughter's birthday and she wanted to go back because she enjoyed the visit previously. She loves bread and strawberry butter. Until then, it was ok but food never came. Waiter didn't even asked us if we are doing ok. We had to wait over 50 mini until finally food arrived. Both table next to us came after us and ordered after us but their food came out before us: things happen but waiter didn't even say sorry or any sort of words. Especially if this is at Neumann Marcus restaurant? Very disappointed.
