Mayas Authentic Mexican Food

Service is one starFood and drinks are 3 starsMenu not clearly pricedFalse advertising for taco tuesday Ive been twice now and wanted to like it but the vibes are just off in there. The food is the only reason im not giving them a one star review.

This place is very weird. The food is good but the service and vibes are always off. They show us to our table and then don't bring us menus so we have to go back to the front to get them ourselves. Chips were stale and salsa watery. They have no prices for their margaritas on the menu- their "happy hour" is $1 off drinks and outside of the restaurants says "join us for taco Tuesday" but my husband and I just paid $70 for 2 margaritas and 6 tacos. Like what?? On taco Tuesday during happy hour? $12 margaritas with no indication of any happy hour price (which we would know if the price had been on the menu in the first place). Anyways food is good but we probably won't come back for these reasons.

First time trying Mayas & we were pleasantly surprised. We did an online order for carry out & upon pickup the staff were friendly and helpful. My fiancé loved the Birria tacos & is happy to know we have these nearby. We also had the chicken tostada & chicken nacho fries. Both were packed with flavor & lots of fresh toppings! The dishes were a lot bigger than expected. We got a side of the rice & beans which were pretty delicious! The refried beans have a pretty savory taste compared to most Mexican restaurants but they weren't too over powering. The queso dip is amazing & the salsa is fresh. Mayas has the best Horchata that we have ever had! Unlike most places it wasn't grainy, overly sweet or too milky. Every sip was smooth, full of cinnamon & the right amount of sweet. ( this is a must have with every order moving forward) The restaurant itself is quaint, clean & has a nice bar for customers to sit back and relax. We have lived near Mayas for 2 years & are happy to have given it a try. Supporting local restaurants & trying new things did not disappoint!!

Sad bc it doesn't rate 1 star.. The service was horrible no hello after 10 mins the lady behind the counter threw chips and salad at us, didn't say one word or ask if we wanted a drink. Another lady came around the corner was stuck on the computer for about 10mins we asked if we should order at the counter and she was staring at the computer doing what no one knows.. Still no drinks, but alright than the phone was ringing than she put them on hold and continued to stare at the computer for a bit longer then got back on the phone got off the phone and stayed at the register for a long while, we waited a bit longer.. We left they were very confused and rude.. Ended up going to the Thai food next door Chandara where the service and food were excellent...

This is the first time I have been here since Covid. It is located in Grass Valley in the same large shopping center as Raleys....Pet Smart..India Oven..Dollar Tree..and more.PROS: I ordered to go at 3 pm today...not very busy at this time. I like that they have a children's menu for my nieces visiting me. They no longer have the complimentary salsa bar...it has been replaced by a full bar instead.One children's plate with enchilada and rice and beans was 7.50. The children's plate with bean and cheese burrito (very big!) Was 6.00. Both my relatives liked it but my niece said the bean burrito tasted like Taco Bell! I did not order any of their adult meals so I cannot comment on that...but they did look good!The food came out quickly. I did get a small basket of chips and salsa to go (free with order). Chips were warm but a bit stale for my liking. Salsa was great and not too spicey.CONS: I ordered a glass of white wine while waiting for my order to be prepared. I get the bill and it was 6.99! I asked the waitress if I had ordered a mixed cocktail how much would it be...only 3.50! I think they have the drink prices backwards! They also have happy hour on Tuesdays..It is clean and there is outdoor seating.I love Mexican food..this was just average.

Good service and ambiance, and the food was excellent! Ingredients tasted fresh, and the flavors were nicely balanced. We had a mango and tangerine margarita and they were both great, too!

Mayas has the best carne asada plater the meat is seasoned really well and we always get their homemade guacamole dip it's amazing !!! Service has always been great and the place has comfy booths !

Cold Tasteless Food (Stale Store Bought Taco Shells, Salty Grizzly Meat, Slathered in Sour Cream) Awful Salsa Unfriendly Atmosphere

The entry and the division between ordering takeout and dining in seemed a bit awkward. Once seated, I was given chips and salsa. The salsa was spectacular. The chips were average and obviously made offsite. The guy managing the front door and takeout orders was also waiting on me at a nearby table. He took my order without issue. I ordered a shrimp fajita salad that was beyond excellent. All of the ingredient were fresh and nicely seasoned. The lettuce, tomato, cucumbers and avacado were cool, crisp and fresh. The fajita vegies were warm, crisp and fresh. The shrimp was plentiful and delicious. It was one of the best salads I have had in many years.

This was our second visit in a month. Both visits were very good. I had Carne Asada..about 18 bucks. 3 large slices of delicious meat cooked perfectly.The rice and refried beans were very good. My friend had taco salad, very large served in a tortilla bowl...everything was fresh. The service was very good and the tables and chairs were stylish and comfortable.
