The food was average at best and definitely overpriced for what you get. Surprising to see prices higher than what you'd find in Manhattan. Not worth it unless they improve either the food or the pricing.
Food was fresh and delicious service was great
A lovely Mexican dinner at Maizal in Clifton, Staten Island.
Known for their margaritas, I had a spicy jalapeño and my friend had the grapefruit.
For appetizers we shared queso with chorizo and a stuffed plantain with garlic shrimp.
For main courses, more shrimp: tacos, a burrito bowl and their spicy shrimp special. For dessert, churros with vanilla ice cream.
The food and the service were both good, as well.
They have a great happy hour: Monday through Thursday + Sunday all day; Friday & Saturday until 6 pm.
One of my favorite places on the island and come here often! All of the food and drinks are so good, and staff is super friendly. Definitely recommend

Maizal is an excellent spot for authentic Mexican cuisine. The restaurant is family owned and operated which seems to enhance the care of their service. My family and I frequent this place often; we’ve been here as a couple, a trio, and in groups of 4-12 ppl. The service is always efficient and friendly. The dishes are deliciously reliable and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. There is a back patio for dining when weather permits which is enjoyable in the spring and summer. Additionally, the restaurant has a cute bar where you can enjoy well-crafted cocktails, wait for your friends, or watch the chefs! Ample street parking is available. Highly recommend! Definitely get the mole!
Vegetarian options: Mexican cuisine is a great choice for vegetarians and the staff are happy to make suggestions.

Consistently great food, service and ambience year after year. Best mojitos ever! The hidden garden in the rear is a paradise to dine in. Miriam is the best hostess ever.

I came to have dinner with my husband and ordered the guacamole for appetizers and had one of a kind Margaritas . I feel this place is the best for cocktails . We had tuna tacos and the enchiladas verdes . Everything was beyond delicious love this place. I travel from Queens and can’t find something similar with freshness and consistency they have at Maizal . Highly recommended it
