The food was flat out delicious. I had the barbacoa street tacos and chicken tortilla soup. Bravo.

I had a terrible experience ordering here thru UberEats. My order was severely delayed and the store manager was not accommodating and refused to refund me. DO NOT EAT HERE

This is one of my favorite places to order in from, always delicious! The birria is to die for, the mole is very tasty, tamales are top notch, and the pozole is like home. Delicious!

Eeeyuckkkk! This place is one of the reasons why everyone thinks nyc doesn’t have good Mexican food…. Never had a taco I couldn’t finish because it’s so bad…

Ordered the Steak Fajita Platter for delivery. The portion size was solid — a good amount of steak with peppers and onions, plus rice, black beans, and a separate stack of tortillas.

The steak had a nice flavor, well-seasoned and not dry. The peppers and onions were cooked down and had good caramelization, so they brought a bit of sweetness. The black beans were soft and simple — not heavily seasoned, but they paired fine with everything else. The rice was straightforward too, nothing amazing but serviceable.

The tortillas were still warm and soft by the time they arrived.

Overall, it’s a good fajita platter — filling, flavorful enough, and definitely worth ordering if you’re craving something hearty without going out. Not mind-blowing, but I’d order it again.

Great food. Burrito will fill you up. Great mix of salsas to choose from. Only issue and it’s a minor thing, is I wish there was more seatings inside. Aside from that great Mexican restaurant

Ordered online through uber eats, which used delivery drivers from the restaurant. Order never came. Very frustrating with no updates. Restaurant didn’t answer calls either

Would never order from them again - the food took forever to arrive and they kept saying it was on the way during each phone call. Dishonest customer service.

I’ve ordered from here multiple times and they never disappoint. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and arrives quickly thanks to their excellent delivery service. The standout? The nachos. Seriously—crispy, loaded, and perfectly balanced between cheesy and spicy. Whether you’re craving a casual bite or a full meal, Maya hits the mark every time. Highly recommend!

When you enter, this doesn’t feel like your typical Mexican restaurant. It feels more modern but it’s a clean look.

The horchata has a light sweetness to it. It was refreshing I just wish it was more creamy with a stronger cinnamon hit.

Make sure to grab some sauces before you dig in.

The elote is a must you get a whole corn on the cob that’s fully coated.

For the the 2 taco lunch special. You get these 2 big tacos, rice & beans, and a drink . The chicken was juicy and shredded nice. These aren’t little tacos. They fill their tacos all the way. Plus this meal has everything you need.

I got the steak Cali burrito. They put everything in here. Steak, fries, guac, beans, you name it. That steak was savory & juicy.

The birria quesadilla was massive. With hella cheese and birria meat. With consomé on the side.

I love how you get tortilla chips with every dish. They were fresh and crunchy.

I ended it with their churro.

Service was good. The staff were helpful.

Overall the food is pretty filling and tasty. Reminds me of other fast casual Mexican but is filled with wayyy more options.

They even have a salmon taco I have to try that next time.

California native, this is my go to! It’s not quite as good as my favorite spot in San Francisco (nothing will ever be so it’s not a fair comparison!) but it’s the best around NY for sure

Favorite spot for quick bite going to or from the Barclays center - counter service, great as takeout or if really hungry to eat in the restaurant. Really reliable
