Maria’s is the perfect spot for breakfast and lunch. They offer lots of gluten free options, including bread and waffles/pancakes. It can be a little loud in there and the wait can be long. It’s always worth the wait!

I was excited to see the transformation from its previous life as a bank is astonishing; there’s no trace of its former identity. The decor is thoughtfully curated, with unique accents and an inviting ambiance. The standout feature is the large, central bar that serves as the restaurant’s focal point. Upstairs, the additional seating area is ideal for hosting a larger group. offering a more private and cozy experience. As for the food, there were clear winners and a few misses. The Brussels sprouts were a standout dish—perfectly crisp and full of flavor and the squid ink pasta was another highlight. However, the meatballs didn’t quite meet my expectations and are something I’d skip next time. For those with gluten sensitivities, Wood Stack is accommodating, offering substitutions throughout much of the menu. I’m looking forward to returning and exploring more of their offerings.

Super cozy brunch spot! I had the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had and a delicious omelette. The service was excellent, and they handled my food allergies (nuts and gluten) very well. I was very impressed with the variety of menu options and I will definitely be visiting again next time I’m in Metuchen! Highly recommend!!

We went for brunch there when hatch 44 had a long waiting list for brunch. I'm so glad we discovered this place! Everything was wonderful for our party of six, vegans and non-vegans alike. from the hot matcha latte to ALL the appetizers and entrees, everything was so good. This place exceeded our expectations. The owner was so accommodating and friendly. There are gluten-free options as well. We can't wait to go back!

I decided not to get anything, they do have gluten free and vegan options, but I decided not to risk it before a 6 hour drive. I'm gluten, dairy and soy free. Cross contamination with gluten will make me sick. It would be nice to see what the gluten free and vegan options have in it so I could make my choice without having the waitress go back to make sure everything is safe for me. My wife had eggs over east, pancakes, hash brown and bacon. My one complaint, I guess I'm getting old, but the music outside and inside were very loud.
