Xanadustar Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Best of luck to you Maria. Your lovely restaurant is a unique and valued place and it would be a sad loss without you.

Chris_22 Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 (edited) This is very sad news. We absolutely love this place. The food and the atmosphere is amazing. @Maria - is there anything we can do to support you and your case? Would it be worth members of the forum writing to the local councillor to ask them to look into the situation? Best of luck and we hope to see you open again soon.

Pugwash Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Landlord would have to get a High Court writ before bailiffs can come. Hope you get some good legal support. WE also have enjoyed your restaurant.

Viva Marias Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Dear neighbours and customers, The notes displayed on the front door of Maria’s Tortilla restaurant do not reflect reality. I’m dealing with a rogue landlord who has unlawfully instructed bailiffs entry and taken control of the premises. Im not backing down and with help from my lawyer, I’m trying to open the restaurant as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding, your support is greatly appreciated. I’ll be back! Maria Maria’s Tortilla Dear neighbours and customers, thank you all for your messages of support on this forum and privately. I’ve won and I am pleased to inform you that Maria’s Tortilla will open today at 18:00 for drinks only as we need time to prepare for tapas. VIVA MARIAS. 30 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/365692-reposession-notice-on-marias-tortilla/page/2/#findComment-1717651 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeadNun Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Clearly, you should hold your next forum drinks here, @Sue 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/365692-reposession-notice-on-marias-tortilla/page/2/#findComment-1717712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) 18 hours ago, HeadNun said: Clearly, you should hold your next forum drinks here, @Sue Unfortunately, lovely as it is, it wouldn't be a suitable venue for the forum drinks. Not enough space for people to mingle and get to know each other, and it would get in the way of other customers. Upstairs at the EDT has comfy seating, lots of space and is quiet on a Wednesday night, so we will stay there, if the managers let us! The next drinks aren't arranged yet, but will be in September. We had a break in August as so many people are away. My partner and I will be coming back to Maria's for another delicious meal, though!

Zak Posted Saturday at 22:27 Share Posted Saturday at 22:27 Went back to Maria’s this evening and had a lovely meal. As good as ever! Although she’s well and truly back, it’s obviously been a costly experience so do get down there and support her. 3 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/365692-reposession-notice-on-marias-tortilla/page/2/#findComment-1717958 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pikeyed Posted Tuesday at 17:40 Share Posted Tuesday at 17:40 Went actually for the first time yesterday. Terrific food, so was well pleased.

Hare Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Also been back and found everything as good as ever, and Maria holding up so well despite the apparent bullying and borderline intimidation that have secured her an injunction against the perpetrators (legal case pending…) but also cost her a lot in terms of both emotional distress and financial damage. Support her. Go back this weekend and see for yourself - you won’t be disappointed! 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/365692-reposession-notice-on-marias-tortilla/page/2/#findComment-1718429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
