    I gotta be honest I don't really like corn that much. But oh my goodness. This place is fantastic. It is imaginative. It is unique and it makes you like corn all over again. The service is fantastic. The food is creative and unique. It is absolutely delicious. I don't know why this place isn't busy all the time. But I do love this place. Please go and try it out.

    Elote Cake
    Danielle C.

    This is a fun little restaurant off El Camino in Redwood City. Their speciality is elote! There is actually a surprising amount of items on the menu that aren't just straight up corn. We saw cake, tacos, birria, etc. When we went on a Sunday afternoon it was actually very full and people took all the tables inside! I was surprised. We tried the elote cake and I felt like it tasted like a nice sweet piece of cornbread. Emphasize sweet. They also had a condensed milk topping which was cool and fun to drizzle on the cake. I would come back and try more of their items!

    Found out Maizz now has chilaquiles, OMG. They make then on the spot. Instead of just chips they fry quesadillas, amazing. Fresh queso, crema, and cilantro. I'm giving them a 10/10. (They do take a little bit because they make them from scratch!)

    Maizz has good vibes and branding, but the food could be a lot better. We tried their Elote Bowls, expecting the punchy, balanced flavors of a good elote, but off the cob. What we got was a relatively small bowl of unseasoned corn kernels without much of any flavor--other than the crushed chips/Takis/Hot Cheetos on top. I was really hoping this place would be good! Maybe some of the other options might be better?

    Welcoming and vibrant new little spot in RWC. Friendly and helpful service when asking about the menu options. The dishes are prepared right in front of you. Love the touch to add toppings - a variety of peanuts and crushed chips. I went with the Doritos on top of my bowl with the added carne asada. The chipotle mayo adds a kick and really liked the melded flavor of the homemade sauce. Stop by to support this local biz!

    ITS CORN! Very yummy! Got the elite bowl, taquitos, and elote cake! Lowkey kind of pricey but everything was delicious so i have no complaints, also the decor of the area was cute and they had nice outdoor seating! Parking lot is small tho FYI, but there's street parking available as well. I'd prob get the taquitos again! Cant remember the exact filling liked the most tho, so just pick ur fav meat or filling! The cake was also pretty good, i like that it came with some condensed milk to pour on top :)

    I went back to Maizz recently and had the Papas Elote again. This time the dish was so oily that I felt sick halfway through. Not sure what changed. I think next time I'll try the elote ribs or something lighter.

    Not busy on a Tuesday evening. Food made to order (took some time), friendly staff, nice colorful decorations and atmosphere.

    Nice parking lot so you don't have to pay for metered parking. Aesthetically pleasing exterior design that really caught my eye when I drove by. So had to stop and see what this place was all about. Everything is centered around the elote. I had the carne asada elote bowl and found it very filling. There are so many toppings to choose from and the meal came with a side of chips.

    Elote Stick
    Deepti K.

    Picked up a bunch of stuff from Maizz. We got an Elote stick, elote ribs and elote fries. I was really looking forward to good elote but this was light on flavor. It was much more creamy than tangy and spicy. It could have benefited from more lime and tajin. The food took a long time too.

    Costillas de elote
    Liv D.

    Las costillas de elote son bien ricos. Bien cocido y dulce con salsitas picantes y quesito salado No vivo en Redwood City pero si fuera un estudiante de la escuela en frente de la tienda definitivamente saltaría la clase de álgebra para una botana Ándale porque ya estás leyendo tu celular, vamos a Maizz! Jalas o que?? The corn ribs were super delicious. Well cooked and sweet with hot sauces and salty cheese. I don't live in Redwood City but if I were a student at the school across the street I would definitely cut álgebra for a snack.

    Stopped by to try their elote offerings and ended up really enjoying both items I ordered. I went with the elote cup, keeping it classic with the basic setup. Fresh corn, mayo, cream, cotija cheese, and a squeeze of lime. It usually comes with two additional toppings, but I chose to opt out and keep it simple. Even without the extras, the cup had a great balance of creamy, tangy, and savory flavors. The corn was cooked well, not mushy, and each bite had that satisfying mix of cotija and lime that makes a good elote so comforting. I also ordered the elote rib, again sticking to the basic version with just butter and lime. The presentation was fun, and the corn had a nice char that added a smoky depth. The butter and lime combo kept it light but flavorful, letting the natural sweetness of the corn shine through. Service was quick, and everything came out warm and fresh. A solid spot if you're craving elote in different styles. 4 stars.

    Elote Ramen Soup

    What a tasty creation! The corn ribs* were so tasty, we devoured the toppings! The ramen was very well served! Will come back for more!

The weather was nice so we got to sit outside. Our waiter was so kind and attentive. He made sure to grab us ice for our water and took our order super fast which we appreciated because we were hungry lol. Time to talk food and drinks! I ordered the frozen margarita with a strawberry swirl ($13). Our waiter asked if I wanted a salt or tajin rim so obviously I got tajin. My friend ordered the rum loves coco ($13.50). She let me have a sip and it was sooo delicious. I'd recommend both of our drinks. They're definitely on the sweet side but that's what we wanted. We started with the chips and salsa trio ($5.95) which is a must. You get an entire bucket of chips and 3 different salsas to pair. It's definitely worth the price. We barely made a dent in the bucket. Great for sharing with a big group. I got the quesabirria trio ($20.95) and wow it was amazing!!! Again our water was considerate enough to ask if I wanted onions and cilantro (the answer was again obviously yes). The consommé was mouth watering. My friend ordered the taquitos de pollo ($12.95). It's a lot of food for that price; you get 4 taquitos. I've had them before and they're also quite good! In total including tip we spent $110 ish but my friend did end up getting a second drink. It's expensive for a lunch, but a great place if you want to splurge! I've been here many times and I'd definitely come back. Heads up - they do not take reservations.

The Margaritas we ordered were quite good. We had Guac and chips for a starter, and it was also very good, although I felt the were a bit stingy with the Guac. The chips were fresh and tasty. I had the Carnitas, which was a nice sized portion, but was dry and had little or no flavor. My wife had the steak fajitas, which she said was tasty, but the steak was tough and hard to chew. We were both full after our meal, so we didn't order a desert. This is the 2nd time we've eaten here, and I'd have to say that overall it's just average, but priced a bit higher than some comparable Mexican restaurants. The atmosphere was good, but despite having reservations, they sat us at a small table right next to the bar, so it was quite loud, and a bit cramped once they brought out our meals.
