Delicious food made with fresh ingredients and full of flavor. Place is packed even at 9:00. Food came out pretty quickly even with a full house.
If you haven’t been to Cantina Los Mayas in the Richmond District yet, you need to go. Seriously.
The moment you walk through the door, you notice something different. Everyone is smiling. There’s a genuine energy here that you can feel right away.
Mexican wine, a mezcal pour, craft cocktails, and a menu with some incredible options—but what really sets this place apart is the authentic experience.

Awesome high-end Mexican. We found Cantina Los Mayas searching Yelp for highly rated restaurants walking distance from Golden Gate Park. 2 blocks north of the park, it was a 10 minute walk. Reservations are a good idea- the place started to fill quickly on a midweek evening. Roger runs the front of the house. He was helpful with menu translations and suggestions. He started us with fresh tortilla chips with 3 types of salsa from sweet to hot. For apps we each had a Mayas taco:...read full review

Cantina Los Mayas is a fantastic Mexican restaurant in SF, offering great service, excellent cocktails, and a diverse selection of Mexican wines. Their weekend brunch is a must-try, featuring phenomenal French Toast and outstanding lamb chops. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, providing warm service and information on both food and wines. With small plates like chips and salsa, fresh guacamole, empanadas, sopes, queso fundido, and mole, it's a neighborhood gem worth sharing with friends. The sopes and mole dish are favorites, while the churros with coconut ice cream could be improved. The environment is energetic, though sometimes a little loud. The food and drinks are all superb, with dishes like panuchos, chuletas de Cordero, and a Mexican Coffee that is unbelievable. The complimentary chips & trio of salsas are very good and different from the typical. The service is also phenomenal, with kind and welcoming staff offering great recommendations. Visiting from Texas, guests found the authentic and delicious food, leaving no crumbs, and highly recommend this family-friendly spot. It is a destination for brunch on Sunday, and it is worth visiting if Mexican food is loved.
