Maya Cocina Mexicana

Omg... we happened to be in the area and it was just about dinner time. We both did not know what we were hungry for and we let the Yelp gods decide. They have lead us correct. Upon walking in and feeling slightly underdressed we were promptly seated. Our waitress and host Brooke was amazing. Fast, efficient, kind and even had a great drink recommendation. The restaurant itself was very cute and I appreciated all the artful touches that made Maya feel nice and intimate. (Perfect for a date night) I ordered my usual Mexican meal carne asada tacos. Let. Me. Tell. You. THE BEST TACOS IVE HAD SINCE MOVING TO MICHIGAN FROM CALIFORNIA. I am screaming at how amazing these tacos were. The pictures came out great but if you can imagine , they taste even better. The Guacamole was sublime and the chips were perfectly salted. We also got a bonus tamale and it was perfection. My husband enjoyed his food so much we almost ate in silence because we could not stop eating our delicious meals. I will tell everyone I know about Maya. It is the best. * I think it goes without saying we will definitely be back.

Came here for a quick bite after hearing great things about the place from some coworkers! we both got tacos off the lunch menu and margs! Our waiter was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant wasn't too busy, but again we came during lunch. Very clean and welcoming atmosphere .Definitely want to come back for dinner one night!

The ambiance is good for a date. I sat at the bar. The service from the kitchen and the bartender was fast. I ordered an apple cinnamon margarita, corn, and shrimp tacos. The Mexican corn was delicious. I got it with light jalapeños. The shrimp tacos could have been better if there was a different sauce. The sauce it comes with is too spicy for me.

Food is excellent. Drink recipes are very good. Only two things are taking away from making this a five star review. 1.) the service and attention is slow, need to speed things up a bit 2.) for lunch, why not open the place at 11:30am to prepare for the lunch crowd? The door doesn't even unlock until 12:01pm. Seems like you would increase your traffic if the door was unlocked for those coming for some good lunch. We will be back, hopefully the owner takes our suggestions to heart.

I like this place it is very intimate. The staff is very friendly and always smiling. I do recommend making in big a reservation. It is a small place and there is always a wait but if you have a reservation you get seated without waiting. The food is very good. I have been here a few times. I have had the pork belly tacos which is a special but should really be added to the menu. I have also had the shrimp tacos that are excellent very favorful but very light This time I had the Cameroon flambé (shrimp fajitas). They were good but it doesn't come with rice or the extras at other places. It was the tortillas and stop with the vegetables that were cooked with. They were still very good. I had the Paloma very good and the Silver Margaritas very good too.The guacamole was ok it need at little more lime.

Food was amazing and full of flavor! Lucy was our waitress, she was very attentive, knowledgeable, and charismatic! She gave great recommendations and paid attention to small details. The ambiance is chic with Hispanic flair. Overall a great experience and hope to see Lucy next time we come in!

Really delicious drinks! The food was pretty good and we enjoyed our time here. It's always awesome to have some good Mexican places nearby.Service and ambience are both very good.

Delicious food but service was super slow.CHIPS & SALSA: Tortilla chips were crunchy and the house made roasted tomato salsa was fresh and delicious. $7 as of Sept 2023.ESQUITES: Roasted corn off the cob, cilantro, onions, jalapeño, mixed with house made cotija cheese lime sauce. $9. This corn salad was sweet, refreshing with a little tang. I really liked it.ALAMBRE de ASADA: Short rib, thinly cut, seasoned, grilled with a touch of bacon, onions and poblano peppers, served in a skillet, topped with melted Oaxaca cheese and a side of corn tortillas. $21. Delicious but the cheese was a bit overwhelming and didn't let the beef shine. But it was still good.In general the food was pretty good. The restaurant also looked nice and clean on the inside. Parking was super easy and plenty.

My husband and I were able to get a last minute reservation for our date night and went on a Friday night. Reservations seem like a must in a weekend- the place was PACKED. The ambiance was intimate but well-lit. We sat at the bar and had a bunch of apps. The only downside was that the person serving us was the bartender, who was making all the drinks for the restaurant. He was wonderful but it was kind of hard to get his attention and I felt bad waving him down, as he seemed pretty slammed. The highlight was the stuffed date appetizer. It came with 4 dates, stuffed with chorizo and wrapped in bacon. I got a pomegranate mock and my husband got margarita and both were really tasty. Overall would go back to try a full meal, maybe on a weeknight or at a table during the weekend.

Best Experience Ever! Hands down, this is one of the BEST dining experiences I've ever had. I've been to plenty of restaurants, but nothing compares to them! The food was next level, the ambiance was perfect, and the service? Absolutely top-tier. Our server Victor was AMAZING, super attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. He took such good care of us, and even the bartender (or maybe it was the manager?) stopped by to check on our drinks, which were already perfect. Seriously, the drinks were on point. We went there on Valentine's Day, they gave roses to my friends and I, which was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. It really made the night feel extra special. I would give this place an A+++ if I could! I'm already planning my next visit. Highly recommend this spot is a must!
