    We are road tripping for a few months and missed the back home Mexican food and decided to give Maria's a try. No disappointment here! The customer service is exceptional! In fact we were sitting outside because we had our senior pup adventuring with us. We got her a cup of water and the host came out with a bigger container for us to use. We were given chips/salsa/beans to enjoy while waiting for our meal. Hubby ordered street tacos and I got the chicken enchiladas. Both meals were great. The beans, rice and homemade tortillas were on point. Highly recommend.

    While our experience started a bit rough-a server told us to sit then no one came over for over 8 mins even though both waitresses made eye contact with us and preceded to help customers they sat after us. The young man that finally came over and took our drinks and order was a sweetheart and he made up for the initial issue of first sitting. Our food was delicious and surprisingly good! We are from Texas and we love Mexican food! And this didn't disappoint! It's a loud place but it gets the job done. I'd 100% come back!

    Tamale platter

    Don't know what people are complaining about here. I'm from Southern California and a lot of this lives up to Mexican food there. While not as "fresh" obviously, the taste was great! First, the chips with salsa also came with refried beans. It tasted homemade Next we had the tamale platter, which was moist and perfectly seasoned. We tried beef and pork tamale with both the red and green sauce. Very good mild spiciness there We then tried the fajitas, which I ordered the bistec rancheros with the grilled shrimp skewers. This was amazing as the fajitas was on a sizzling plate and the beef was seasoned with tastiness - tomato's, peppers etc. there was a nice hint of spice plus tangy taste to the roasted salsa. Rather than dousing dishes with a bunch of cheese, the cheese was put on the side. The corn tortillas were also house made. Overall we were pleasantly surprised to find such good Mexican food here!

    Steak tacos.

    We had lunch at Maria's this afternoon after our visit to Crazy Horse. Because our dog was with us, we sat at the outside table (which was comfortably shady). The waitstaff immediately asked if she might bring water for Maggie, which she did. Then she brought our water and chips with salsa and a bean dip. The corn chips were light and tasty - a hint of salt and not at all greasy. I had fish tacos (lightly grilled tilapia; not breaded or fried) - delicious. Partner enjoyed his steak and onion tacos - commented that the steak was tender and had nice flavor. We enjoyed watching and visiting with passersby; waitperson was very attentive; food was definitely choices that we'd make again. We would encourage you to eat at Maria's.

    The interior might not be that exciting but their guacamole is so fresh and chips are amazing. Some of the best tacos I've ever had and I eat tacos twice a week. (I had the shrimp tacos). I would definitely recommend this hidden gem when going to Custer.

    Stopped in because pretty much everything was closed. Best decision I've made in a long time. Maria couldn't have been nicer. Very friendly and service was quick. I had the pork burrito and it was hands down the best I've ever had. Everything about it was fresh and homemade taste. Wife had the tamales and eat every bite. That's her best compliment. The strawberry dessert that Maria brought out was the icing. We'll definitely be back and you should stop in and say Hi!

    Popular place with a wide variety of choices for dinner--friendly and attentive service (if you…read moredon't see your server, ask another--they clearly work well as a team) and interesting decor. Starter and food, drinks, etc., are brought promptly to the table. This is exceptional in a highly popular tourist area. The food is good but could use a little improvement--the grilled mahi-mahi was good, but a little on the dry sauce and definitely needed a sauce. A couple of the dishes did have sauces, but fish is why most Creole restaurants like Brennan's will serve a sauce on the side, or a topping with butter such as Trout Almandine. It doesn't have to be a fancy sauce--the option of good ol' tartar sauce works. The grilled vegetables also needed a little more butter and seasoning. Carrots are good on their own; broccoli and cauliflower need a little cheese or butter and some seasoning to be loved. The IPA (Long John) was excellent. The beer cheese dip and soft pretzels were to die for; the chardonnay was passable. A great choice for dining in a VERY heavily traveled tourist destination. Get there early--it starts filling up fast and all the restaurants around Mount Rushmore close at 9.

Quite the character made us feel like family, a true asset. We went upstairs to pounding fathers and was greeted by Eric. He gave us the best service we had the ceviche, the walleye, and the arrabiata with short rib. Everything was delicious. The ambience, the food, the service was outstanding if we lived in Custer, South Dakota, we would be here quite often. Thank you Mount Rushmore brewing for a great time.

    Have been there 3X. Major disappointment on all 3 visits. I owned a very successful BBQ business in…read moreLong Beach CA from which I retired a few years ago, so I have a lot of BBQ and deli experience, having run 2 locations for 12yrs. SM's BBQ food is undoubtedly some of the worst I have ever had. We used professional Southern Pride smokers...they obviously use inferior equipment, as their food is overwhemingly so smoky you cannot taste the meat or seasoning. That's what often happens when you use ALL WOOD for your cooking. Admittedly there are some places which seem to be able to mitigate the excessive smokiness to a degree...our smoker used gas and just one log. No one ever complained that our food wasn't smoky enough. Had the brisket, ribs, pulled pork. As they say in baseball, 3 strikes and you're out. They even managed to screw up a BLT...3 skimpy thin slices of bacon from the menu which promised much more, and a sandwich which belongs on a kid's menu for $10. Their idea of coleslaw was cabbage mix with dressing drizzled on top. We sold coleslaw @ our place, made to order, but tossed just before service. Service favored regulars, and bar business obviously took precedence over food business. If there were more local options, this place would certainly be out of business by now. Pick any other place but here.
