The food is always great. I'd prefer that the chile verde had some kick to it, but I do understand that they are catering to their clientele. The beans had a real authentic and rich flavor as if they were prepared by your abuela. read more

Maria's Mexican Restaurant - chile verde, rice, beans - Mexican Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

First time here for lunch. The place is well decorated, clean and spacious. I was seated quickly, had chips and salsa on the table immediately and met by my server. The chips and salsa were good and I ordered number 11 on the lunch menu which included a beef taco, chicken enchilada, beans and rice. My favorite was the enchilada, the meat was excellent as was the white cheese sauce. The taco was good but was overwhelmed by sour cream and the beans and rice were okay. Service was excellent and the price was very fair. read more

The first impression was positive as they had my beer choice, Dos XX Amber, and it's cold. Chips and salsa are both fresh. The mild salsa is as named, mild, no heat, but if that's what you go for, you'd probably like it. The hot has better flavor. I prefer more cilantro, but I guess they're going for a wider appeal. I ordered the Torado, a combo with a fajita beef burrito and a taquito. The burrito had good flavor but was spicy, so not for anyone that's against heat. The fajita steak was also kind of tough. The taquito had a wonderful light crispy shell, but not a lot of flavor. We will be back as the place was clean, the food was good and our waitress was extremely pleasant. read more

Was not a fan. The white cheesedip was not what I was expecting. Instead of it being the delicious creamy taste I'm use to when ordering cheesedip from most Mexican restaurants, it was tangy, slightly sour tasting. Kinda like monetary jack cheese but way too much of it. It had a sickeningly sour taste but also kinda sweet, really was not for me. Then I ordered the shredded chicken chimichanga. Again not my favorite. I didn't notice when ordering so this was more on me, but it has cheese and rice mixed in with the chicken. I had asked for the cheese sauce on the side and I'm glad I did because not knowing there would be cheese on the inside it was just WAY too much. There was so much cheese I ended up cutting it open and scraping everything off the chicken. It also was not crispy more bread-yy. Really did not like it. I was SO disappointed because the place looks so nice and clean. But honestly the chimi reminded me of those frozen burritos you put in the microwave and especially for the price, I just really expected more or, I guess different? The staff was very nice so that always helps to make things better. read more

My husband gives it a 4.5 star and I gave it 3.5 star so we went with 4 stars. The atmosphere was great. The booth the sat us in was spacious and it didn't feel crowded like some restaurants feel. It was full of people and yet our waitress was attentive and fast. All the people serving were hustling. It was great service from the beginning to the end. read more

We ate at Maria's in Ft Smith on a regular basis for many years and definitely have missed it since moving to NWA. We finally took a chance on the Maria's in Rogers. Surprise, it's just as good. It comes highly recommended. Great portions, friendly staff, great food. Will definitely be a regular read more

Can't beat the food here from Maria's. Came in a while back and the food here is excellent. I wanted a few tacos and this place definitely delivered. The tacos were as good as it gets. Great service and friendly service. I love the hot chips and the salsa here is pretty good as well. They have a great lunch menu as well,but I'd suggest the tacos!!! read more

It's not what it used to be a decade or so ago. But for the price it is still good. I do appreciate it still having a family friendly atmosphere. read more

The food was extremely delicious and the service was astounding! The restaurant itself was beautiful (inside and out) and it's just perfect all together. read more

Benton County must be the capital (or at least one of the capitals) of Mexican food. It's not just that there are a lot of them, it's that most of them are really quite good. Maria's is one of the better ones. Located on Walnut Street, a couple of blocks down from the Wal-Mart, there is plenty of parking. Large dining room with mostly four-top tables and they don't mind pushing a couple of them together for larger parties. Lunch specials range from $5 to $8 and include the usual variety of tortillas (corn or flour), meat (chicken, beef, carnitas) or spinach, and cheese with some sort of sauce on top plus rice and beans. It's hard to go wrong. read more

Frequent eater at Marias here. Aggressive manager and Poorly handled customer service just ended this. Food is fine but has a tendency to up charge you like a cheap massage parlor. When we brought the bill to the attention of our waitress at the register and kindly asked her to please change the price to the price on the menu... she stated that a manager would have to...so here comes the manager... Manager came out hostile!? (Not sure why) it was over a measly $1. She said she didnt want to fix it. She said thats what you ordered and insulted me by stating "you are just cheap". I said we eat here a lot and please make this right because your decision is going to affect if we keep frequenting this establishment. Manager kept telling our waitress at the register that we are cheap people and our waitress was trying to explain to her that we have a valid point. Manager wanted to continue to rob us and was mad changing it and said to never come back. Pretty sad for our community and i will kindly let my friends know too. WOW! I see the owner is listed as Hugo... please feel free to contact me or leave your contact info. This is a very small community Rogers and Bentonville as you know and robbing loyal customers from our neighborhoods then treating them like trash is unacceptable. Manager needs a course in customer service. read more

The food was excellent!! The choriqueso was so good could have drank the whole bowl. Service was excellent as well. Salsa made fresh everyday....food cooked to order. I could go on and on. read more

I go to Maria's all the time and this time I decided to switch my order. I typically get 3 chicken enchiladas for $8.99 and saw an option to choose 2 for $8.50, so I went with that one. Little did I know; that was the lunch menu and after 3pm, it adds $1.50. So I paid $10.00 for 2 enchiladas when on the other side of the menu, they offer 3 enchiladas for $8.99. Our server failed to inform us of this when taking our order. When checking out, we asked if they could switch it and charge for the cheaper meal and the server refused and got the manager. When the manager came out, she repeatedly called us cheap and told us never to come back. I was confused why we had to pay MORE for LESS food when the server didn't respectfully inform us of the better option, as I was clearly misunderstanding the menu. On the WAY to Maria's to eat we saw a different place and considered stopping but said verbatim "We're loyal to Maria's. We can't go there." and this is apparently how they treat their loyal customers. By insulting them and telling them to never come back. Came in happy, left extremely disappointed. Safe to say we will take the managers advice. We will not be back read more

Came To Marias Last Week For My First Time On 10/3/2018 Around 1pm, I Had Just Gotten Off Work And Was Hungry, We Were Seated Upon Walking In. We Were Asked What Kind Of Salsa We Wanted With Our Chips And Our Drink Order Was Taken, The Drinks Took About Ten Minutes To Come To The Table. We Ordered And The Food Came Out Fast. I Was Disappointed In My Tacos, The Shells Were The Pre Made Ol El Paso Out Of The Box, Not Authentic Homemade Shells. The Food Is Decent For The Price. I Would Not Come Back By Choice, The Service Was Poor And I Felt Like The Waitress Was Rushing Us By Constantly Asking If Were Ready To Pay The Bill. Two Stars For The Chips And Salsa. read more

Our food was delicious! Quite a special surprise! It's been a long while since we were last there. New interior decor for an authentic feel. Ratings are misleading read more

So I am From Emporia Kansas And My family And I decided to eat at a mexican restaurant today since we came here for a little vacation at beaver lake so they choose Maria's September 9 2019 at 11:00 am. They sat us right away and the server came and asked for what we wanted to drink and she took probably like 5-10 min to bring the drinks and she took our order right away, we asked for guacamole and cheese dip, she made the guacamole in front of us that was awesome, and the cheese dip was amazing. I ordered camarones ala diabla and they were alright they were a little salty, my sister ordered a burrito and she said she loved it but it was hard to eat because the tortilla was hard and cold. But the waitress was so nice no complaints about her. We would definitely go back next year! read more

Just love Maria's! It helps that we can walk here and waddle home afterwards. Attempted to try a new Mexican restaurant across the street but after sitting at the table for 5 minutes with no service decided to come back to a favorite. Carne Asada burrito with no onions, rice and beans. This meat is delicious! read more

Amazing service. Amazing food. My Arkansas go to mexican spot. If you are considering this restaurant, just go--you wont regret it. W restaurant read more

The service is very slow. We came in as a group of 5 at 6:30 we sat for more than 10 minutes and no waiter. Finally he came out and took our drink orders and just everything took forever. I got a shrimp cocktail and when they brought it out it was really light and it was mostly water so we told the waiter that it wasn't right and he took it back and brought out a new one and said they went light on the ketchup.... well ok. The second time was better. My husband got the hugo special (same as the Steven's special) and his food was less than luke warm but thankfully for them he doesn't like his food piping hot so he didn't bother returning it. The waiter didn't check in often enough and just took way too long every time we asked for something he would take 5-10minutes to complete the task when he should have just done it quickly and came back. It was not busy, and I've been a waitress before and it's just bad service all around. My son also left a small toy on the table and I went back in less than 5 minutes after we left and of course it was no where to be found but when I asked them about it they were not helpful at all. I know it's not their responsibility to keep up with my sons toys but the reaction when I told them he left it is what I'm going on and it was less than satisfactory to say the least. We will not be back. read more

The food is always great here and they are so fast with their service! We love it! They also have a drive thru for quick take out orders!

Food sucks and they charge for a glass of water with fizz out of a fountain $2.59 !! Highway rubbery !! I will never go back and recommend for no one to go since they try to look for a reason to charge u extra when their business is slow ! read more

After all the hype I heard about this place, I was pretty excited to have this for dinner last Thursday night. In the end, though, I was really disappointed. The 'Pancho Special' consisted of one cheese enchilada (in chili sauce), one chicken enchilada (in sour cream sauce), rice and beans. When I opened up the take-out container, it was all mixed together and nothing looked that appetizing. However, I reluctantly dug in, but still wasn't that impressed. It was all bland and the refried beans had a weird acidic taste. Thumbs up to the chips & mild salsa, though... much better than the plain tomato sauce I was expecting. If I'm back in the area, I'll probably stick with nachos. read more

After reading mixed reviews I had mixed emotions about trying Maria's for the first time. Nonetheless on a Thursday evening I was enticed by a nearly empty parking lot and hungry stomach. We were pleasantly greeted and seated right away, I ordered cheese enchiladas with rice and beans and my partner a stuffed poblano pepper. The chips were fresh and the mild salsa good, not a lot of flavor but did not lack flavor! Our meals were served FAST and were both good for basic Mexican staples. We also ordered from the bar, I ended up forgetting my ID there so the drinks are strong read more

I used to come to Maria's at least once a week with my family, friends, business acquaintances for years. In the last few years they have done a lot of renovations and added a bar even. What they have NOT done is address the attitude of the staff. Everyone can have a bad day that is a given, but when you frequent an establishment and repeatedly get insulted by the ladies that are supposed to be representing the place it is time to divest. This time was the last time to try again. We walked in and waited to be seated for at least 5 minutes with several of the staff standing behind the counter staring at us not even greeting us. Finally, my husband decided he would just grab a table. I knew that with the covid restrictions that could be a problem and I saw that the woman behind the counter who for whatever strange reason refused to come out from behind it to greet us/seat us was now really paying attention and so I asked her if we should seat ourselves out of courtesy (more than was given to us). She stated that she had asked us how many 2 or 3 times. I guess I have my answer. She is wearing a mask not speaking up and unwilling to come out from behind the counter to be heard or even seat us which is what would have to happen if she actually intended to seat us. We left. Not going back. Buh Bye. read more

First timers and new to the area - I had the beef enchiladas and we also had queso with our chips and salsa. The queso was creamy and mild, the mild salsa had good flavor and the chips were crispy and fresh. The chili sauce on the enchiladas was delicious, I would have wanted more shredded cheese but it was still good. My soft drink tasted flat but that's ok, I'll get water or tea next time. Im sure we will be back! read more

Food was good and the service was friendly. The rice was nice and fluffy except a few hard pieces. The refried beans were smooth and delicious. The tamales were fantastic. I really liked the salsa. It wasn't too spicy and wasn't too watery, it had depth. That's what you want in a salsa. read more

Ate here while in town and the food was great. The steak taquitos were fantastic. Service was very good, great drink specials and very reasonably priced. Will definitely eat here again the next time we come this way. read more

The salsa is really good. I like to mix the 'hot' and the 'mild' together. The white queso is very yummy. The fajitas are the best deal. You get a lot of meat and veggies. Its usually the only thing I order when visiting Maria's although at times I will get carne asada tacos. My only complaint is getting the waitresses to come back for drink refills or chips. You kinda have to flag them down. read more

I had the Burrito Mexicano and I loved it. Avocado dip was prepared at the table. Chips were crisp and fresh, and the tomato dip was thick and tasty. Every staff person was cheerful and accommodating. Our waiter, Chuy, was enthusiastic, gracious and attentive. Decor is simple and clean. Prices are unbeatable, especially for the quality. "Try it, you'll like it!" read more

It's not often that I decide to treat myself to a dinner out. But I decided I wanted fajitas. So I stopped at Maria's in Rogers and ordered the Chorizo fajitas. Suppose to be chorizo, steak and chicken... almost no chorizo, the steak is tough and chicken is mediocre. And then the young guy that is my waiter, is more interested in the 8 top table by me. Placed a glass of water at my elbow as he passed my table instead of in front of me. Won't even hardly look me in the eye. Sad for him, I usually tip really good for good service. Not gonna be back here next time I want Fajitas. read more

Went to Maria's as I was with a group from work. Apparently they visit here a lot. I have a pretty high standard when it comes to Mexican and Maria's was a little weak. As I have said in previous reviews, the salsa tells the story. Well this story didn't go well. The salsa was bland (mild) and didn't have any flavor. I had the combo fajitas and they were ok. The chicken was ok and he beef had little flavor. Overall the experience was average at best. I will probably not repeat. read more

Great service, good food. Only issue is when fajitas are ordered by anyone the smoke overwhelms the entire restaurant. Great beer selection on tap. read more

We are not coming back. This our first time here. Service was terrible! We had to ask for a drink menu, ordered our drinks. Our order was taking forever.... Food came out and we still didn't have ANYTHING to drink. We order a 2 alcohol drinks and didn't even get that or water with our food that had already arrived. I asked if we could get our drinks and the waitress had not even put our order in at the the bar tender. And didn't t offer even water. Finally got our drinks, and the drink didn't taste like a pina Colada... it tasted like a banana shake. Food did not even taste good to come back. Will not be back. read more

Good food for cheap price. Defiantly not fine cuisine but embrace it for what it is. Give plenty of chips and salsa and the waitresses are pleasant for the most part read more

I've eaten at Maria's a few times before but the last time takes the cake. There was one other couple there at the same time. There were several servers by the cash register and it took quite a while before a waitress came. The taco salad shell was stale and should have been fresh. I was not offered a refill of my drink and it took forever to get the attention a my waitress. I won't return! read more

Food was tyical Mexican. Nothing special but it was good. Service was horrible. We had to flag them down for everything we needed.

Food is nothing special. After raising their food prices they haven't increased their food quality or quantity. Place is usually dirty with window seals filled with dead flies. I used to go there quite often as I have a rental property on the other side of the fence. But after the last few visits I'd rather pay more and go to Abuelo's or drive further and to go Las Palmas. read more

Food is terrible! Salsa is gross... Cheese dip is really watery (blanco and chile con queso). Refried beans taste canned as well as the enchilada sauce, definitely tastes canned. Yuck! Seriously would've been better off going to Taco Bell! Even the tea was watered down. The only positive was that our waiter was very nice and when I mentioned that the cheese dip was watery he swapped it out for some chili con queso. It wasn't any better but he tried, poor kid. Save your money and spare your taste buds! Stay away from Maria's! read more
