A really neat fusion restaurant that offers different spins on Mexican cuisine. One of the highlights is the samosa tacos. Which were quite unique and something that is worth going out of your way to get.

Little pricey for 3 tacos with no sides ($18) but overall the food was good and so was the service.

Taco Maya is definitely my new favorite Mexican restaurant. The food blew my expectations through the roof. The flavoring of every dish is on point and it’s like every bite takes you through a journey of deliciousness.My family and I started off with chips and salsa. It was so much fun to try all the salsas they have at their open salsa bar. Next we ordered some Cajun fries, which had the perfect fry-to-seasoning ratio. Let me just say, the spice mix on the fries has just the right amount of kick! For the main courses, we took the 3 taco plate, kids quesadilla, and burritos. They were all so yummy, hot, and fresh! The one thing I can say is, I wish they gave more quesadilla. It was a pretty small quantity.Dessert. I recommend the fried ice cream. It is the best ice cream I have ever had. They used Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. It was so delish with the French vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream.Anyone that has the chance should definitely try this place! It is so good!

They need to work on better service, this place stinks like sewer back up. Once you walk in, smells. They have one year here and is not as busy. The food was just ok, was not a wow factor. Will not be my first restaurant to pick and eat. Plus keep your eyes open on the 3% restaurant service fee. They can take it off, don’t get screwed with the 3%. This place is a joke.

Went to Taco Maya for lunch on a weekday afternoon, and the place was pretty empty. They have tons of seating inside, including a Maya Room to host parties or get togethers. They offer a lunch special on the weekdays which includes 3 tacos + rice and beans. They do have pre-selected tacos for the lunch specials, so you can't order outside of those. We ordered a few items - al pastor burrito, a chilli potato taco, and a paneer taco. We also got a plate of the lunch special with the samosa taco, grilled veggie taco, and al pastor taco. Their al pastor burrito and taco were SO good! They were smoky, spicy, and sweet. The pineapple was perfect with the seasoning and the meat was so juicy and tender. Next up was the paneer taco and the chilli potato taco, both of which were equally delicious. Both were very flavorful and made for a perfect bite! Great option if you're a vegetarian as well! The samosa taco is the perfect blend of Indian and Mexican flavors. It's one of my favorite tacos here and they offer $1 samosa tacos on Mondays so you know exactly where to find me those days!! LOL. Lastly, the grilled veggie taco was probably our least favorite. The veggies were mostly raw inside, not cooked. The cheese was a nice touch but it did need some salsa or sauce inside, which was missing. Lastly, the rice + beans were a good filler on the side for the lunch special but I did have to put a lot of salsa and hot sauce on both to add flavor. They were pretty bland on their own. Taco Maya does have a ton of variety and a lot of delicious options on their menu. I'm not sure if the lunch special was worth it, I would rather get a plate full of tacos or another entree instead. Definitely be sure to get their al pastor when you visit and some of their vegetarian tacos are truly some of the best on their menu!
