A Wonderful Experience at Maya Mexican RestaurantI recently revisited Maya Mexican Restaurant after a long break, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. Having been here a few times over the years, I wanted to see if it still lived up to my previous memories – and it absolutely did!The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the chicken fajitas. They were incredibly delicious and cooked to perfection. The flour tortillas were simply amazing, and the chips and salsa complemented the meal excellently.One of the things that stood out to me was the prompt service and efficiency of the staff. The waitress attended to our needs promptly, and our food arrived in a surprisingly quick manner.Maya Mexican Restaurant also offers a vibrant bar area where you can enjoy watching a game. Its a great spot to catch up with friends or bond with family members over lunch or dinner.Another advantage of dining at this establishment is the ample parking available. They share a parking lot with neighboring businesses, making it convenient for guests to find a spot easily.Overall, I highly recommend trying out Maya Mexican Restaurant when youre in Scotts Valley. They have consistently mouthwatering food, excellent service, and a comfortable ambiance. Its a dining experience that Im confident will leave you satisfied.

Had a quick bite that was delicious. The staff was prompt, courteous, and accommodating. The food was prepared to order and had the authentic taste I prefer. I enjoyed the salsa, a chili relleno, skirt steak, and enchilada. Wish I had time to try the amazing looking assortment of Margaritas.

Went for a birthday dinner and was hugely disappointed. Wasnt many people there maybe 3tables at most. We ordered calamari, literal rubber texture. Had the tostadas werent bad but didnt mention jalapeños on the menu so had to pick them out or vomit on the floor. Personal issue not theirs. Got a chimi with beef, it was crock pot chucks of roast beef. Also got the del Mar and it had the plastic left on the cheese slice.Unfortunately thee BEST thing about the restaurant was the salsa .. if you like super spicy and fresh chips. Staff walked by all customers that were staring waiting for menus or bills.For a new comer this is definitely NOT AUTHENTIC. nor is some of even able to be eaten. Worse 80 Ive ever spent

Great Mexican food is hard to find. This is one of the best I have had in a long time. Tasty and Hot. The only minus was the Margaritas. Not bad enough to make it a 4 start review. The food is that good.

Very Bland and a bit overpriced for what it was. There were some missing ingredients in my burrito (they forgot the sour cream and tomatoes). Lady at the front seemed nice though and the ambiance seems like it could be fun if you like to dine in. I was just getting take out and went at 4pm so it was empty. I’d rather go to La Chimichanga or Taqueria Los Gallos next time.

I went to Maya Mexican Restaurant for dinner & drinks on a Friday night. Totally packed. The food was good - it met my expectations based on the overall impression I had prior to going there. I ordered the combination fajitas and shared a pitcher of the house margaritas. The fajitas were good, the ingredients were fresh and cooked just right. The beef and shrimp were better than the chicken. The guacamole, rice, and beans were quite good. By contrast, I didn’t care for the margaritas. Go with a frozen margarita rather than the traditional. There were plenty of servers, but service was slow. Given the number of guests, I didn’t really get worked up about it.

Went there for the first time after living locally for over 20 years. Had a feeling it would be average and it was.Positive: ambience, beer on tap and their rancho beans.Chips were good but the salsa was average. I ordered the carnitas which was tasty but the rancho beans that came with it were the star. Excellent. Corn tortillas were average.My husband ordered the chili relleno/beef enchilada combo. The relleno didnt have a traditional batter and was too cheesy. He wasnt impressed with the enchilada.

We love Maya Mexican Restaurant. We enjoy having many Birthday celebrations here. We often reserve a table in the back bar area. Great staff, great family feel! I recommend Maya 💯

Food is okay but not spectacular. The service has lacked for the three times we have dined here as a family. The server usually does not come back until its time for the bill. Always need to flag someone down to get refills or order another drink. For that reason we will not come back. There are better order at the counter types of restaurants.

Service was great. Food not so much. I got a super burrito. It was huge and I thought it was going to be awesome. I added steak for the upcharge and the stake was mostly flavorless except for the fact it had been burned. So didnt love it.

Hands down one of the worst over priced places I have ever been to. The chips & salsa not good. Got the guacamole pretty good. I had the carnitas plate and my wife had the Car Asada plate.The carnitas came out looked great big large chunks, cooked just right. The plate garnish was wilted, no rice just beans. For the price this plate is very over priced.The Car Asada over cooked, plate came with rice and beans.Overall experience is not good. I would not waste your time eating here.

One of worst tacos. Tasteless, with shredded cheddar and lettuce. Bad quality and definitely not tasting like a taco. Tortilla was bad too.

We stumbled upon this place as we drove by Scotts Valley. Really authentic food. I had the chicken mole which was yummy. Not too bitter and just enough sweetness. Others had the relleno and loved it along with beans.We had the house margaritas which was great. The service was fast and friendly. We went off hours so I would hope so. I definitely recommend you giving it a try.

We ate outdoors in their large tent structure. It seemed safe as both ends were open providing great ventilation. The food was outstanding as always. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend Mayas restaurant.Update: May 7, 2023. The pandemic is over... Right? So we ate inside. It was crowded but we got a table right away. I would love to give this place 5 stars but they are not there yet. This is not a bad thing as I dont care for 5 star restaurants. They definitely are the best Mexican restaurant in Scotts valley so I would recommend this as a much try restaurant. We love it!Update: January 20, 2024. We had dinner here with friends and they had music from someone playing a saxophone. He was good, but the sax is hard to play softly, so it was kind of too loud in the small area. It was too loud to hear the server and I got the wrong beer delivered to the table so I guess she couldnt hear me clearly either. The food was excellent as always but if the horn is back, I think we will go somewhere else.

Nice, chill restaurant. I came here with my friend and his family for dinner a little while ago. I ordered the big vegetarian taco and it was a good choice. They mean it when they say big taco. Pretty fresh tasting vegetables and tasty beans and rice side. Super hot plates when the food first comes out so be careful :). Very attentive waiting staff too, when we were there.

If you are a tequila afficianado, this is the right place. At least a hundred different bottles of tequila to try. Ricardo and Jesus are real nice bar tenders and owners. Enjoy a nice margarita and lunch or dinner. Please drink responsibly

Love this place. The food is perfect. I can order anything here and bam! the best Mexican food in town. The people are excellent and efficient in service. Very clean. Every time I go, there arent many people, so there are plenty of choices for seating. Its location is odd, but its a hidden crown jewel.

We have been going to this restaurant for almost 20 years now, and over the years the food and service has declined. Our most recent visit was very disappointing. The food was just okay and not even that warm, even though when they bring it to your table they say hot plate, hot plate, but its barely even warm. On this visit we had some food leftover, so we asked for some to go containers. They charged us .50cents for each container, how low can you get. Its beyond me when an establishment wants to charge .50cents for a to go container. This place is obviously family owned and I would love to support it, but I can no longer do so. Unless they change their business practices, we wont be going back. There is another restaurant in aptos, which I wont mention the name, their service is AMAZING! They even give you a side of jalapenos and dont charge you for it, where Maya will charge you $2. Oh, and this other place doesnt charge for to go containers, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!! I would avoid Maya at all costs and go give your money to other establishments that deserve it.

Mayas is consistently a delicious restaurant. The staff are friendly and polite. They check with the table frequently enough that you are not without food or drink.

If you love good Mexican food, then you might want to find another spot. Their food is unbelievably bland, and Ive tried several dishes. Its just not good Mexican food. Youd be better off just going to a taqueria, and it would be much easier on your wallet. Nice staff, full bar, and terrible food.

2022-09-13 02:08:29

I had ground beef enchiladas, rice and beans. I practically liked the plate. The guacamole was excellent and made fresh so it didnt have that extra lime taste that most have because it was served right away. My cousin has been coming here for 20 plus years but it was my first time. I do not live close, but if I did I would most likely be here once a week. Its about 60 miles from where I live.😔Yum Yum Yum

The fajitas taste delicious but the beef was a little tough. Service was friendly and efficient. The selection of mezcal and tequila is great! Ask the staff for a recommendation but dont forget to set a budget as they have some truly top shelf stuff - with a price to match.

Been eating here for many years. It is the only sit down Mexican in town with a full bar. The food is great and consistent, service is friendly, and the atmosphere fun. The restaurant is always clean and parking is easy. I love the salsa and their Margaritas are excellent. Our kids love that the kids menu includes a small ice cream sundae for dessert!

Food was hot and enjoyed a pitcher of margaritas. Good for standard sit down Mexican food. I enjoyed their enchiladas. Usually I order off the app menu and its more than enough. Today I went with a full entree and I had enough leftovers for dinner.

Nice place to meet friends. Good food.UpdatePricing for certain items has actually become ridiculous for their food items. I really feel bad to even say such a thing. I know everything is more expensive now but a Tostata Grande for 15 with beef was mostly lettuce a shame. And if you wanted a other selection of meat add 6 bucks. I loved the place for years (22). Its a popular place but not a bargain.Sorry for the rant. Just one persons thoughts. 🌮🇲🇽🌮

First I want to apologize that we showed up 45mins before closing. The food was incredibly delicious, but slightly pricey. One of the key characteristics of this place is their margaritas, and unfortunately did not get to try one. One of the disappointing things is that their fajitas for 1 person is a little over $19 but for 2 people it is $30...not a bad deal...except you get 5 tortillas...not 6 but 5...they brought me 2 more tortillas at the price of $1.75.However, like I said the food was pretty good👍.

Those people that gave this place 5 stars dont know how Mexican food should taste. Ive lived in Scotts Valley for over 30 years. Been to Maya several times with friends and family in the hopes that it somehow got better. It did not. Chips are usually day old stale/recycled. Food is bland and unappealing. Drinks are over priced. Do yourself a favor and drive 10 more minutes to downtown SC and hit up El Palomar. The restaurant has excellent food. The bar has awesome drinks (jalepeno Margaritas are superb)! And the taco bar is the best Ive ever had! Skip Maya unless you want plain tasting old food.

Food was good, especially the veggie enchilada. Sangria wasnt fresh,, but cloudy, so I said we didnt want it. From then on the waitperson had a very bad attitude and just threw stuff on the table for the rest of the meal. Kind of spoiled the whole meal.

I ordered take out while in the restaurant, the staff was kind and helpful. The food was made quickly for how busy they were. I ordered a super burrito with shredded chicken and it was HUGE! Great amount of food for the price, it was delicious and the chicken was tender.

Review №47

2021-12-20 03:37:55

Very large items. Chips and salsa to go large amount and would be a great item at a gathering and also the real guacamole. Large servings of relleno, rice and beans. Flan is amazing. Very nice employees...excellent customer service.

2022-01-13 19:20:05

I have to say I wasnt impressed. I got a Burrito Grande with bee. In all honesty, it tasted like a Taco Bell bean burrito, but with beef and bigger. My wife got the same, but with chicken and felt the same. It just didnt have flavor. Ill just stick with one of the local taquerias and save a few bucks. Cant comment on the other items, but a burrito is pretty basic and I expected better. My folks like this place which was the only reason I ate here.

A good go-to Mexican restaurant. S.V is chock full of Mexican restaurants, so the food is pretty much the same and the prices are a little high, but it is a large place with great seating and usually sports are playing on TV in the bar. The bar is quite comfortable and servers are as accommodating as they are to restaurant patrons

2020-09-13 04:06:05

It was okay..I ate here 3 nights in a row with my husbands family(party of 10)not because it was that good, but because it was mostly convenient. Its decent food, so so drinks, & no mojitos. The service is not that good either, but the staff was very nice

2021-08-05 14:25:15

This is one of our go to Mexican restaurants for take out. The food is amazing. The restaurant is huge and has two sides. One side is the traditional dine in area with tables. The other side is a bar with TVs for people want to go get a drink and watch a game. Parking could get complicated. Although the parking lot is huge, it is on a slope and spaces are small and tight.

I ordered online. The ceviche tostadas were ok. They were like lime juice and canned tuna, but ok. I also ordered a chile relleno. That was NOT a chile relleno I got. It was an enchilada with a tough pepper, little cheese and it was encased with an eggy tortilla.i also requested through the website for utensils as we are staying in a room and cutlery and napkins were needed. I asked twice. We had to eat with our fingers. If I head back to the area, I will not go there again. 2 stars because the ceviche was ok.

I had nachos with Asada, and my friend had a burrito. We both thought our food tasted fishy. I am not a huge seafood fan. My dish went uneaten. However, they had great table service, which has been very spotty at other restaurants.

I am always in search of new places to enjoy so on a rainy day we came here. Seated promptly and reviewed the menu. Nothing really jumped our as amazing, salsa was tasty with some zip. We ordered a shrimp cocktail which had the tiny shrimp and the sauce was a bit to sweet for my taste. Main coarse I then did the Diablo Shrimp ( I was craving Sea Food 😉) which was done well. Tasty good spice. All in all I will return.

The food is good but not great, it could use a lot more spice and flavor. They did bring me grilled jalapenos after I asked for it to spice things up.

The food was average... I realy wanted the Chile Verde but ot wasnt pork - too bad o really wanted that. 2nd choice Chile Colorado but that was Pork... never heard of those options.So i had the carnitas instead. I enjoyed the carnitas with beans but the salad was a little odd.

This was our first Mexican restaurant in California this trip, and man are we glad we stopped here. Handmade tortillas, everything was super hot and fresh. Very nice people working there.

I ordered 2 shredded beef enchiladas but I got 2 ground beef enchiladas. The beef was flavorless and the texture was horrible, the sauce tasted like it was straight out of a can. And their pomegranate margarita doesnt have any pomegranate taste. Their rice and beans are no doubt right out of a can and their prices are horrible for how bad the food is. If you want good Mexican food go to Cafe Carlos right down the street they have great prices, food, and service.

First time having lunch here. My guest had a fancy salad; I had tortilla soup. Both were excellent. BTW, they dont have a separate lunch menu.

Review №64

2018-07-12 01:14:07

I wasnt pleased at all. I ordered a pomegranate margarita that tasted like rubbing alcohol and the price was outrageous. There was no seasoning on the chicken or the ground beef. I ordered the tostada grande and it was the same size as a regular tostada. The location of the restaurant is not very good either.

Authentic Mexican food, and super Mayarita is my favorite margarita! Vegetarian options are more than just casedillas... Filling for enchiladas, burritos are great!

The servers were less than friendly and not at all attentive.The strawberry margarita had to be sent back! Horrible! Do not order the flan! Gross! Very eggy and dyed a weird orange color. Main courses were good. Sopapillas were yummy!

Review №67

2021-01-16 19:30:38

Salsa tasted more like italian marinara, meat in the fajitas was overcooked, and on the take out order they were very stingy on chips and tortillas. We also paid for extra guacamole, but the ammount given was tiny. However, I will give them a slightly higher rating as they followed covid guidelines well and their estimated time on their online ordering was precise. Maybe the fajitas are just not good for pickup...

A comfortable neighborhood Mexican restaurant. Good food, nice staff, drunks are separated from the sober customers. Good selections of texmex favorites. Family-friendly. Challenging parking and exiting when the adjacent middle school is flooded with impatient privileged carpool drivers who ignore one-way signage.

Best Mexican sit-down restaurant in the greater Santa Cruz area. Doesnt look like much from outside but their carne asada dinner is simply the best Ive ever tasted, anywhere, period. Also good and large house margaritas and friendly service.

Maya has always been a hit or miss restaurant. Its really never been the same since Salvador left. The only thing thats consistent all these years is their salsa.But tonight they topped themselves. Kinda a quiet night. Waitress was pleasant enough, until she figured we werent ordering dessert. Must have asked 3 times if we wanted anything else. Once I asked for a to go box I guess she realized we were done, attitude change for sure.Then came the bill. 3 regular meals, one beer, one iced tea, guacamole, and a side of sour cream.The total was $79. Really almost $80 thats about $26 per person. So I looked a little closer, and if you have seen their bills they are confusing. Top 2 items were $8.95 and $17.95. Plus two other I didnt recognize from the menu. I went to the register, she asked if I was ready, I told her I had questions. Asked about the top 2 charges the $8.95 was for the guacamole, wow I know avocados are expensive but I think thats a bit over priced.Next came the $17.95. She told oh that is sour cream I said $17.95. Oh that is a mistake. Seriously $1.75 and you just happened to insert a 9 in there. To me that was suspicious. I have noticed higher that normal bills, the last few times weve been there. And one time we were there, we had a party of 6. They added the tip in but wasnt clear what it was forI. E. they didnt want us to know so we could over tip. So I had to ask.Next the 2 enchiladas was more than the menu as was my relleno and taco was more as well. She informed carne asada was 2 dollars more per item. I didnt ask for carne asada I asked for shredded beef. Yes there is a difference. I have never been charged extra for shredded beef in my tacos there ever.I said well the steak was dry and tough, she said she couldnt do anything because I didnt tell her at the beginning. Well I didnt say anything because I didnt realize I was paying $2 extra for tough meat. At the regular menu price I was ok, but to charge an extra $6 for so-so meat was not ok.I also informed her its her job to explain if something is going to be higher than what someone may expect. And not just try to pad the bill so she may get a higher tip (well that didnt work out in her favor as the tip is the only discretionary item we can control)I was a waitress for years.Bottom line check your bill there very closely.

The enchilada sauce was not that pleasant. Taste just like tomato. The pastor meat was not session good. The quesadilla has green bell pepper in it. Overall Prices are high.

This is some bad Mexican food! I feel bad writing this because I had good customer service and my waiter was super nice, but I would feel worse if I did not warn people of the bland tasting food. Not real Mexican food.

Service was great and the food was surprisingly good. Probably the best Mexican food Ive had at a sit down restaurant in Santa Cruz county.

Review №93

I only go there because two friends insist on going but everything I have eaten is so salty I can hardly stand it. I don’t understand the allure of this place. It’s noisy and the food isn’t that great. The waitstaff is friendly.

Worst Mexican food Ive ever had. Everything was flavorless, or tasted bad. To make matters worse, I paid $60 to feed myself and my two kids... Dont waste your money too.

Be aware NOT your authentic Real Mexican food! Went there once and will never go again. If you want real Mexican food go to Watsonville.

Review №99

2019-08-16 04:53:29

Eh. I live close and keep trying to like it but its just the typical bland Mexican food restaurant. Service is ok. Drinks are ok. Everything is just ok. When I go out I want more than ok!

I don’t know what happened here, it used to be so good and service was great but in the last couple years it’s gotten expensive and the service has gone downhill.

Nice staff. Clean and great decorations. Food wasnt that flavorful. The rice tasted like pure garlic.

Review №105

2019-04-25 21:28:23

Honestly if I could give this place negative stars I would. Bland, unimaginative food, poor presentation, not worth half the cost. Keep driving, there are far better choices in Scotts Valley.

2019-07-19 23:21:35

One word. Ordinary. Overpriced lunch. I could have gone to taco bell for 3 bucks. I paid 13 for a taco a scoop of rice a scoop of beans. On top of it all it was not good, super bland. I do not reccomend this place.

Ordered nachos. Paid $15 for chips with some meat, refried beans, and cheese melted on, with little side containers of guac, salsa, and sour cream. Guacamole contains little to no avocado. Over priced, I will not go back.
