My husband and I shared a Molcajete Michoacán, which comes with steak, chicken, and pork. It was so…read moreflavorful. It also came with rice and beans and hand-made corn tortillas. We were hungry, yet wasn't able to finish it as the portion was huge! The place is smaller than their Monterey location, but the service is just as friendly. I'd say the restaurant can fit roughly 50 people or a little less. Not too big at all.

Worst food in this city. I ordered the vegetarian molcahete from the menu. What i got was bowl of…read morebarely cooked soup vegetables in a thin flavorless red soup. The vegetables were nearly whole as in a whole carrot, a potato cut in half lengthwise, really. I was given this dish and never saw the server again. Somehow I was supposed to eat this with tortillas and a spoon. After tasting the thin, red broth and being absolutely disgusted, I went to the register to speak to my server. I told her I didnt like the food and didnt eat it. With a straight face she rung me up and charged me over 30 dollars for a meal I didnt like or eat. That's the first time I've ever left a restaurant for bad food. Bad food, bad service, stay away from this one.

My grandma…read morereally enjoyed her tacos, and my grandpa liked his food too--although he thought the salsa was a little too spicy (I personally loved the kick). The tortillas were amazing--soft, fluffy, and delicious. My molcajete had great flavor as well. My only personal preference was that the steak was cooked more well-done than I typically like, which made it a little dry for me. I understand that may be how many customers prefer it, but it could be nice to give guests the option on how they'd like their steak cooked. The beans were creamy, the rice had great flavor, and overall everything tasted fresh and well made. It does get busy, so parking can be a little difficult, and it can get pretty loud inside during peak hours--but that's also a sign that people clearly enjoy this place. Overall, delicious food and I definitely want to come back to try more items on the menu.

I tried the popular baleada, which is a home-made flour tortilla filled with a layer of mashed red beans, queso fresco, eggs and with or without meat (I got it with carne asada). The flour tortilla was just as other described - soft, buttery smooth, almost melt in your mouth goodness. The carne asada was dry and hard so I could've gone without. I bet a braised beef like barbacoa would've been perfect for this item. It also came with salsa and I selected mild which gave it a nice bright flavor. I also ordered a chicken tamale (they also offer pork) and I was surprised to find a whole chicken wing (no skin) stuffed into the tamale! I broke into it using a fork and hit something hard which turned out to be the bones. But honestly, this was one of the best tamales I've tried in a long time. Flavorful, moist, and a nice sized portion. It came wrapped in what I think was banana leaf. The service was fast on a Wednesday night and there were a handful of friendly patrons seated nearby. You could tell that they were regulars. The space was intimate with around 10-15 tables seating about 4 people each. Maya's Cafe menu has a wide assortment of dishes to choose from: serving breakfast dishes like chilaquiles, lunch items such as burritos, or soups and full on dinner plates with rice, beans, and choice of protein. There's even more selection and the whole menu is in Spanish so I'll be sure to use Google Translate next time!

I came here on my lunch break and asked for 2 pupusas revueltas and a plátano frito con lechera To Go .. they gave me both of the Pupusas wrapped in foil and plátano frito in a to go to container. I grabbed the bag I didn't check it. I noticed the foil, but I never thought that my Pupusas would be wrapped in foil, so when I returned back to Work, I opened my bag and talk to myself. How am I supposed to eat Pupusas? If there is no plate. How am I supposed to pour over the salsa and the cabbage when there's no plate. I was disappointed when I opened up de plátano frito and tried to cut into it to eat. It was very hard. But this time I only had 20 more minutes left on my lunch. I was very disappointed cause I couldn't really eat the pupusas how I wanted to and the dessert was really not tasty at all. It just didn't seem freshly made. So I would definitely recommend you drive up a little bit more and you'll find the male version of this restaurant called el chalateco .. every time I've been there and never disappointed

My wife was craving Salvadorian food for a while and this place was on the way home from my wife's…read moredoctor's appointment. We arrived a few minutes before they opened. Exactly at 10am, the staff opened the door and turned on the 'Open' sign. There were a good amount of seating and the staff were very friendly. I don't eat this early and decided to order the menudo and got the Salvadorian tortilla. The tortilla is similar to what they use to make pupusas. The tripe was very good. It was nit soggy and not tough to chew either. There were a good amount of tripe in the soup. The soup was a little bland for me but I'm use to adding a lot of spice and hot sauce in my soup. After adding the condiments, the broth was perfect. My wife ordered pupusas since that's what she was craving for awhile. She loved the food and was full after her meal. She said it was made perfectly. I would definitely come back here since I wanted to try the alambre. I was debating whether to order it to go but it might not taste the same when I get home. Plus this gives me a reason to come back and dine in. They have different hot sauce and you might have to ask the staff and they will bring it to your table. I like the red sauce and the sauce bottle that is at the table. The green sauce has a refreshing taste to it. The orange sauce was more of a creamy base. If you are in the area, cone and try this place out. The items on the menu look really good and there are a lot of items to choose from.
