Food too expensive!!!!!!!!

The horchata is 10/10 🔥 fire, what I’d call flamaaaaaa, straight flame. Amazing 🤩

I craved it every single day for a week straight after first tried it.

My second horchata experience in Iowa aside from Los Altos which also has fire horchata. My only complaint there is they only sell small. Not enough for someone who loves horchata!!!!

For a family of 7, got charged $104 plus tax here at Maria’s Mexican food. That is absolutely ridiculous!!! We didn’t even get tacos. 4 burritos, 1 carne asada fries, 2 horchatas, 12 taquitos!!!

Y’all say California is expensive yet they are only charging $10-12 per burritos 🌯 and asada fries are $10-14 at most. This place is a rip off. Ridiculous. Food is not that good to be charging that much. However, in my honest opinion it is way better taste and quality than Los Altos which is more of a Tex mex rather than authentic Mexican cuisine. I feel Los Altos caters to los gringos in their food quality, not authentic. My father is 100% Mexican born and raised, so I should know Mexican food. Thank you very much.

Got charged $12 just for queso on three burritos and it wasn’t even that much, the burritos were still very dry.

The carne asada had way too much gristle, a piece or two at most is understandable and has to be tiny, very minimal but chunks practically in every single bite is a no go. I’ve eaten way too much Mexican food to know way better.

Restaurant a bit dirty. Employee was kind and friendly. His service itself was 10/10 I appreciated Angel.

I’ve been a loyal customer at Maria’s for many years, even though the tacos are on the expensive side, because I’ve always enjoyed the food. Unfortunately, my last visit left me very disappointed.

While I was at the salsa bar, the lady at the front desk told me I was “taking too many” cups of salsa. There’s no sign saying there’s a limit, and when you’re purchasing tacos, it seems reasonable to expect being able to enjoy the salsa bar. I even offered to pay for the extra salsa, but the way she said it was rude and unnecessary.

I find it ridiculous that a loyal customer spending money on tacos can’t take at least two salsa options without being scolded. Very poor customer service. If this is how customers are treated, the owner may want to reconsider who is representing their restaurant at the front desk.

Best authentic Mexican food I've had in the Waukee area. Plenty of options and huge portions for the price. I always get the 2 burrito combo with ALL the sauces! 10/10

My favorite place to get food. I come here a lot and never have a single complaint. Everything is fresh, fast, and the workers are extremely nice. Everything is also VERY well priced for what you get. The burritos are huge and cheap!

Stop by to get some To go food. We got the pozole that they serve only on Friday and Saturday. We also got a carne asada plate that came with rice and beans and a big tortilla. We also got a raspberry churro and two aguas frescas. Everything was fresh and delicious! Good value for the amount paid. Would recommend to anyone looking for good Mexican food. They are also opened late on Friday and Saturday until 3 am.

First time there will definitely be back

Literally terrible, the “salsa” was actually pizza sauce. The food was rock hard. And the meat wasn’t even cooked. Most importantly it was like 90 degrees inside. Wouldn’t recommend especially for almost 65 bucks.

Great menu, the food is very very good!! Steak burrito are my favorite

This place is awesome and in my opinion better than the Chipotle and definitely better than the Pancheros in Waukee area. I have always been greeted with quick service and delicious food. Their salsa verde hits home every time. Will be going on a regular basis!

❤️❤️❤️ this place!!
