Maria's Tortas Jalisco

Best birria and tacos etc ive tried anywhere to date. Ive been to a lott of places. Marias is my favorite and ive tried everything, none of it disappoints!

The food here never disappoints! Most recently, I called in a big order for our teams at work. The service was wonderful, very patient and accommodating. For the first-timers at the office, they were blown away. For those of us already in the know, it was just another day of delicious food! Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I recently had the chance to try Maria’s Torta Jalisco, and it was such an enjoyable experience overall. If you’re craving authentic Mexican food, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

The star of the meal for me was without a doubt the birria tacos – they were absolutely amazing! The flavor was bold, rich, and perfectly seasoned. Every bite was juicy and satisfying, and the meat was incredibly tender. What I loved most was how balanced everything tasted – the seasoning wasn’t overpowering, and the consomé brought it all together beautifully. These tacos are the kind of dish you think about for days afterward.

The portion sizes were another huge plus. You definitely get your money’s worth here. The servings were more than generous, and I left feeling very full and satisfied. It’s nice to see a restaurant give customers hearty plates without sacrificing quality.

Now, the only downsides are things to keep in mind before you go. The restaurant is very busy, which is both a good sign of how popular it is and a reminder that you may have to wait a bit for a table. I’d suggest coming a little earlier than peak dining times if you want to avoid a long wait. The other issue is parking – it’s not great. The lot is small, and the area around the restaurant doesn’t have a lot of extra space, so be prepared to drive around a little to find a spot.

That said, the food makes up for any inconvenience. The atmosphere inside is lively and welcoming, with the kind of energy that comes from a place loved by locals. You can tell the food is made with care and tradition, and the quality really shines through in every dish.

All in all, Maria’s Torta Jalisco is a must-visit if you’re a fan of authentic Mexican flavors. The birria tacos alone are worth the trip, and paired with big portions and delicious flavors, this place easily ranks among the best Mexican restaurants I’ve been to. Just bring your appetite and maybe a little extra patience for parking – it’ll be worth it!

My husband and I are fiends for Mexican food - we choose it for 90% of date nights and are always checking out new places in the city. Maria’s is easily some of the best Mexican I’ve ever had. So simple, so FRESH, so delicate and tasty. The flavours and textures of everything are just - chef’s kiss! A must-try. The staff are all so sweet, friendly, personable, and accommodating. You feel right at home eating there. They all work as such a nice team. My favourites are the Aztec soup (trust me!!) and the chimichanga.

This place is legit if you are craving an authentic Mexican cuisine. EVERYTHING is good and this place is always busy everyday especially during lunch and dinner times. Its not un common for line ups especially during the weekends. The food is a 10. The great thing about this place is they have pictures on the wall when you walk in explaining whats what on the menu so your not intimidated by the menu (it can be intimidating in your not familiar with authentic Mexican food). The staff and servers who bring your food to your table are very welcoming and will answer any of your questions. Food wise they have it all including various Mexican deserts, various Mexican drinks including bottled Coke from Mexico which is a thing (bottle Coke from Mexico hits different if your a Coke enthusiast). They also have like a mini Bodega store where you can buy Mexican various Mexican snacks and stuff like that. In regards to parking, that's the only negative as they just don't have enough parking to accommodate the hords of people thats always there which just shows how good this place is. Good thing is there is a side street right off the restaurant you can park down. They also do take out as I noticed allot of taķe out orders going out too which is another good sign. Overall its a local gem to have such a great restaurant in this community. This place could easily have a Michelin star and would rival any Mexican restaurant you'd find in downtown Toronto if not better than. For anyone going to Niagara Falls from outside Hamilton, its not a bad idea to stop by as this place could also be a destination restaurant as well which is not uncommon from what I hear.

You still rain supreme my friend💋❤️👍 I went to the one in Welland. I gave it a 7.5. It’s OK it’s just lack of flavor. I went to the one in Niagara. The meat was a little dry. It’s OK I gave that a seven out of 10 you still rain supreme my friend I come there. I got excellent taco shell the meat. Any kind of order is delicious your toppings I can tell her fresh they taste so good and your salsa mangos my favourite is the best so for that reason I reach you a 10 out of 10.
