    This spot is definitely a value-over-taste destination. The two-tortilla burrito is massive and will easily keep you full, though the California burrito was a bit of a letdown since the cheese didn't quite mesh with the other flavors. If you're looking for a highlight, the green chili is much better than the red. The service is fast and attentive, fitting for a place that feels more like a quick-stop for a meal than a hangout spot. It was fairly quiet when I visited, making it a solid, efficient choice for a heavy meal on the go.

    Pretty good local spot for Mexican food. The chilaquiles came out hot and still crunchy, they was it should be. The menudo tasted clean and the tripe was cooked to the perfect texture. The pieces of meat are cut into overly large pieces, which makes it a bit hard to eat. Overall, a solid bowl of menudo.

    4.5 stars! Service is quick and staff are friendly. Food is good and potions are good! Free parking on the lot! Cash or card! About 8 tables of different sizes to sit in and eat. They bus the tables after you eat but you order first at the counter. We will be back!

    Las Maria is a true neighborhood gem, and it has earned a permanent place as my go-to spot, primarily because of one thing... their incredible house made Chile Verde. I recently stopped by for a meal where I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with their Chile Verde which is a perfect combination of tortilla chips and a fried egg topped with a hearty scoop of that chile verde. I have to be honest. This is the only thing I ever order here, whether it's for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is consistently exceptional. My family enjoyed their meals as well, my wife had their Chile Relleno plate, and my son had the Enchiladas, overall great food. Beyond the food, the experience is wonderful. This family run spot is always amazing, inviting, and friendly. The consistent hospitality and delicious food is why I keep coming back.

    Grabbed something to eat for dinner at Las Marias since it was somewhat near Azusa Pacific University. The food was good. Initially, I was craving chile rellenos but they ran out so I opted for an enchilada plate (1 beef and 1 cheese). It was good. The portions were a bit small. The enchilads were very cheesy, rice and beans were good. Service was nice and friendly and the place was clean.

    A friend suggested to meet up at Las Marias for lunch. It's a good sign that most customers there are locals and tradesmen stop by for lunch. I ordered two tacos and a sope with Al pastor, asada and birria. The tacos are good size with substantial meat in there. Sope has a nice shell with the other necessary components. They are tasty like a home cooked meal that you could come back everyday. My friend's combo burrito looks really impressive. It's really big with green and red sauce on top. For $12.75, it's a really good value. I'd love to try their menudo. But like most places, they only serve it on the weekend. But the lady told me they start serving it Friday-Sunday now. The lady who took our order is very nice and friendly. The restaurant has a homey vibe where you can just relax and fill up on some good Mexican food.

    Hidden gem or local favorite, come for the quest birria tacos! I have been here twice, but I haven't been able to try anything else because these are just too good!! Fast casual spot with some tables for dining in. I got my order to go. The quesatacos come with an oder of 4 large tacos, consummate, and salsa. It's plenty to share and you probably should share so you can order more menu items. Delicious! I will return.

    Near boiling bowl - steamed up the lens.

    One of those GEMS you get lucky enough to stumble upon in a strip mall! Clean, delicious, fast and friendly service - Mexican radio radiating from a cook that is eager to serve up his handiwork....couple young guys working early Sunday Morning! Came in for a breakfast burrito to go, but saw the Menudo in the menu and had to order it and am sooo glad I did. Clean, deep flavor from a pot that's been simmering for days I'm sure. Get it!

    My first time here! Service was great! Very friendly staff and I loved how she recommended my menu! Most importantly, this queso tacos were so good!!! I can't believe I did not try this place until today! Ambiance was also another factor! Painting on the wall was creative and brought good vibes. Will be returning soon.

    Excellent customer service and friendly folks run this place. I stopped by after being recommended by an SGV Eats post and it is very fresh and tasty. The salsa was homemade and just right. My only quibble is the bacon wasn't very good... overly salty and cheap. I'll be sure to come back and try their other dishes though because that was the only thing that wasn't excellent. It's in a nondescript spot and has limited seating, probably best for takeout.

I went ahead and ordered the shrimp tacos and a agua d piña (pineapple) to drink since I was driving I couldn't order a michi but I'll be back soon to try! Anyways my food got to the table and omg they hook it up with shrimp on top and purple onion and avocado! It was so tasty the tacos are under all that and they were nice and cheesy filled with shrimp which is sautéed in their own garlic oil type of mixture. The pineapple drink was so refreshing I honestly didn't finish my Food or the drink I had to take it to go! I recommend this place!! I'm planning a girls night so I'll be back soon ( :

The margaritas were honestly some of the worst we've had -- they tasted like straight margarita mix blended with ice, and we could barely drink them. The enchiladas were also very underwhelming, especially for the price. It was basically shredded chicken in tortillas with sauce, rice, and beans, and for $20 it just wasn't worth it. The food tasted very Americanized and lacked authentic Mexican flavor and seasoning. That being said, the customer service was amazing. The two ladies who helped us were incredibly attentive, kind, and kept checking on us. They offered extra drinks and multiple items, which we normally appreciate because when we go to Mexican restaurants we usually order multiple rounds and end with Cadillac margaritas. Unfortunately, the drinks were so bad we didn't want to order anything else, but their effort and service did not go unnoticed. One small disappointment was when I asked for hot sauce to add more flavor to my green sauce enchiladas, and I was brought the same red enchilada sauce instead, which made the meal worse. I am a food and beverage manager myself, and I can honestly say I would hire those two servers in a heartbeat because they were fabulous. The service was excellent -- it's just the food and drinks that really need improvement.

Everything looked so clean, well-organized, and inviting. The restaurant itself is lovely, with plenty of seating for a party of one or many. There is ample space for special occasions, a large bar area, a large dining room, clean bathrooms, and AMAZING staff. Every single employee welcomed us to the restaurant. Employees were very friendly, polite, hard-working, and engaging. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the "Martha Salad" while my wife had the Pozole Verde. Both were delicious, perfectly made, very tasty, and filling. The chips and salsa were so good that we ordered a second serving, which is rare for us. We plan to invite family and friends in the very near future so that we can reserve the private group area and have our own party :)
