Restaurant has both indoor seating with high and low tables, and outdoor patio seating. Small parking lot. I can imagine this is popular spot in evenings and weekends. We shared: Sampa explosion sampler - pao de queijo, coxinha and croquette. Picanha with salad - #1 recommendation from server. It was delicious juicy steak, 12oz serving is enough to split for 2. Comes with the breaded yucca crumbs which provides little extra crunch. Food tasted fresh. Comes with a bean stew which we tried but not huge fan of. Chicken Paulista - DH thought it was okay, nothing special. Parfait de crema - very sweet, rich and creamy. I was so full after.

We…read moreordered the empanadas (shredded chicken with cream cheese and ground beef) which were really good and probably the best that I've ever had, chef's kiss with the not spicy salsa provided. We also ordered the picanha (steak soft like butter, came with rice, black bean soup with sausages, and french fries or salad choice) and carne louca (shredded tri tip with smoked sausage, rice, black bean soup, and french fries or salad) both of which were amazing!! We would definitely come back when we are in town.

I had the chance to try their delicious hard tacos. Paired with their salsa, these become really competitive. Their menu was more interesting - columbian food with a Vietnamese twist.

The table ordered the jerk chicken, 2 coconut salmons, 2 P.O.G.s and I ordered a paella oyo! There were rave reviews from the group for the plantains.

The Food: Street Food Double: The chutneys were incredibly flavorful, pairing perfectly with the well-cooked chickpeas. The bara pockets were wonderfully soft and delicious. Beef Patties: The pastry was beautifully crisp and savory. The spiced short rib filling was a total delight--it had a nice kick to it without being overly spicy, which I loved. Oxtail Stew: Generous portion size with plenty of chunky meat that literally falls off the bone. It was perfectly marinated in a great blend of spices. Pairing the stew with a side of their coconut rice is highly recommended! Banana Bread Pudding: Having heard so much hype about this, it was just alright for me. It was cooked perfectly and I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet, but it lacked a real wow factor. The Drinks: Red Wine Sangria: Really nice, refreshing, and fruity. Chase The Devil: Fun to try if you want something different, and it has a decent kick, but I would probably skip it next time. The restaurant itself is spacious with plenty of seating. On top of that, the servers are friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Definitely worth a visit!

The pupusas are delicious and very consistent, which is why I continue to order from here. However,…read moreI've run into a recurring issue with their promotion: when you order 10 pupusas, you're supposed to receive 1 free. Unfortunately, I've now been missing the free pupusa four orders in a row. Each time I called to let them know, I was told to come back to get the free one. After the third time this happened, I stopped calling and claiming my free one. Now I no longer order 10 and instead only get the 7 I need for my family. Because the free pupusa is consistently forgotten, they end up losing out on additional sales each time I order now. I really enjoy the food and hope they can fix this small but ongoing issue, as it affects repeat customers.

The food came out very quick and we basically had everything on the table to enjoy all together. Service was friendly although a little slow but we left very happy and very full.

For our entrees, we ordered the Argentinian Skirt Steak accompanied with Frites, Sautéed Greens, Fries and Chimichurri Sauce -- and the Mezcal Glazed King Salmon with Cashew Relish, Purple Potato Puree (so interesting!), Shaved Brussels Sprouts, and Chipotle Butter Sauce. Food was fantastic -- straight to the point and with boldness from the Latin influence. The ambiance aims for a higher end dining experience, and there is a full bar with additional seating. Must be a local favorite for Happy Hour and dinner. Jonathan was our server -- shout out to him for his efficiency, attentiveness, and professionalism.

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 also liked that they give you both tortillas and bread on the side. banh mi french toast: This dish was also delicious! I'm not sure what the yellow sauce was, it tasted like vanilla to me, but it was really good. My only complaint is that the dish was a bit too sweet for me, but if you have a sweet tooth, you should definitely try it! The bread was super eggy in a good way. first love lychee hibiscus: The drink was tart and refreshing. It did have way too much ice though, about 60% of the drink was ice. I do wish it had a stronger lychee flavor, but it was a nice touch that there was an actual lychee fruit in the drink. Overall, I would definitely come here again!
