YUM. Ordered: Shrimp taco, fish taco, chicken quesadilla, chips Highlights: honestly everything. The seasoning on both were great, the tortilla was a bit on the crunchy or thick side but I liked it bc it didn't get soggy while I was eating. Their salsas were all delish (the hot is spicy but also flavorful). Fish was a little crispy and tacos were pretty full. Notes: we came on a Monday at 7 but they ran at of tortas. Will be back to try though. Parking was pretty easy and there are two small tables under their awning. We were able to sit and eat while it was drizzling out. read more

Maya Halal Taqueria - Chicken Quesadilla, fish taco, and shrimp taco - Halal Near Me - Oakland, California

Maya Halal is located around in the Oakland Downtown/Lake Merritt area. I went on a Sunday so there was a lot of street parking available which is probably different from any other day of the week. The process is easy, customers order at the window, pay, and wait outside where there are a couple tables to sit at while waiting for their orders. The main problem I found was the time it took to make a couple burritos. There were no customers in front of me and it took nearly thirty minutes to make two burritos. The other thing I noticed is the add ons really raised the price. The guacamole, etc are all extra charges on the the super burrito which in my eye makes no sense. Either it's a super or regular. Not super needing to have a ton of add ons to make it a super. But how was the burrito? Overall I thought the taste was good. Burrito was on the small side. But the ingredients seemed to be solid, and blended together nicely. Decent quality but for the price and wait time, I won't be rushing back. read more

I have finally satisfied my craving! Grew up eating Mexican food and have been craving enchiladas! Most places don't do the trick but Maya Halal has it down!! The store front seems like it's closed but it's not. There is just not inside dining. You order at the window and get your food on the other side. Good customer service and they're bilingual! Came by and got some enchiladas. I'm accustomed to eating red enchiladas but their chicken enchiladas are served with green sauce. Do they test the same as what I grew up eating... no. They have their own flavor. However! It's so good! It's the closest I've gotten to authentic and I will 100% be back. I was so satisfied after the first bite. Cleaned the whole plate! read more

Decided to order in and again, the food did not disappoint! I was a little nervous if the food would arrive cold, and it was actually delivered in less than 20 minutes, steaming hot and freshly made. My girlfriend had the steak fries, and I tried the wet burrito with steak. Omg so good! The cheese was perfectly melt, lots of red sauce, and an ample amount of steak and rice. We both didn't realize how huge the portions would be. I could barely get through 1/4 of my meal before I was stuffed. I would def recommend this restaurant to anyone who hasn't tried yet! read more

2026 update. Still the best hot sauce in Oakland. Probably all of California. It's that's good. I prefer the black beans over refried beans. Steak Fries/Chicken Fries are the best deal imo. It's not a cheap spot. But the portions are large. Like two people can eat one burrito or fries order and be full. Multiple friends love the guac and pico. Casa Latina has better protein but the sauce here, I cannot move on. I'm trapped by it. read more

The food here is really good and I've never had a problem with it until today the reason for 2 stars. I only ordered chips and as I look in the bag and pull one out that looks good, there's something hanging from the chip. I thought, maybe it's some other kind of food that accidentally got on it. No! This is definitely a bug egg!! Will not be getting chips from here anymore and probably not food in general! Also, there was a hair on another chip!!! Same bag! read more

Maya Halal Taqueria - Half my Super Burrito added guacamole. - Halal Near Me - Oakland, California

Stopped for a quick bite before a concert and it was delicious. All the food was made to order so it was hot and fresh and well seasoned. I ordered a steak burrito and in California I take taqueria culture very seriously. Every layer was well cooked and if you are looking for heat get the spicy sauce and you will not be disappointed but you may need some water to go along with it. If you are looking for a quick bite in down town Oakland check this one out. read more

I ordered from this Taqueria through doordash. Let me just start off by saying this was a solid choice. The ingredients in the burrito were all perfect it wasn't oily it wasn't too much of anything. All the ingredients really meshed well. The rice was fluffy the guac was yummy and i loved the grilled onions in there. As for the steak fries i'll give it a 3/5. The fries wasn't really giving, it lacked flavor and it just tasted old, however everything on top was good I just wish the fries were a lot warmer and like crunchy and soft on the inside but i also did get it for delivery so maybe it is best when fresh. I'd definitely come back though to try more things! read more

3.5 Stars! This was a decent late night option for burritos but the meat was a tad dry. Flavor was good but again could have used some more salsa or cheese. read more

Had delivery. Their first burrito bowl was tasteless. I was eating to finish the meal. I must have ordered the wrong thing!

This is the only Halal Taqueria I've heard of so I needed to give it a try. I got the steak super burrito and it was delicious and well priced. It seems to be a takeout only establishment with no seating but that's fine given its central location. The food did take about 15 mins to be ready so if you're on a time crunch keep that in mind. Otherwise, I'd recommend giving this place a try! read more

This is the spot for some late night bomb a** food! (Well anytime really but especially after drinking!) The steak Cheeto burrito (5/5) was so cheesy and flavorful! It's huge too! My husband craves this at least once a week. The steak fries (4/5) are also very good. They come with your choice of refried or pinto beans. 4/5 because I've ordered twice and the second time the fries tasted a bit old. Fish taco (5/5) is one of my favorites. It's fried and just comes with onion and cilantro but the fish has great flavor. The orange hot sauce they offer is soo good and spicy! It's literally goes on everything! (I save my leftovers and use on my egg breakfasts) Green sauce is really good too! It's literally just an order and pick up window not a sit down place to eat with some street parking. Service is quick, we call in our order and it's ready within 15/20 minutes. read more

Maya Halal Taqueria - Front of building facing Webster ST. - Halal Near Me - Oakland, California

I ordered through DoorDash and specifically selected the option with cheese, chicken, and guacamole. I received only plain cheese and chicken--no guacamole at all. When I called the restaurant to let them know, they were incredibly dismissive and said it didn't matter. There is no notice on the app that they don't serve guacamole on Sundays. Very disappointing food and even worse customer service. read more

346 14th St Oakland, CA 94612 "Maya Halal Taqueria" is located on the corner of Webster St & 14th Street in downtown Oakland. I was there on a Saturday evening. The place seemed small, so I took my order to-go. I ordered the - - Super Nachos with Ground Beef, Light Rice, and Refried Beans. - Super Taco with Fish. I have to say, this was probably the best nachos I ever had. The chips were layered with more cheese and meat underneath. I asked for light rice, so I got tons of beans, sour cream and ground beef. Very good flavor, and fresh ingredients. Very big generous serving. Grade (5/5). The Super Taco was a big glob of toppings and some fish. I tasted more sour cream, than fish. Grade (3/5). Service was OK. I had to wait a bit for my food, but so did everyone else. Street parking. Welcome to Oakland, be aware of your surroundings and stay safe. read more

I don't know who's working the phone today but they are extremely rude. I usually love this place but they NEED to work on their service because I won't be there any longer. read more

Late night bites. Came after a night out, they close pretty late compared to other spots. I came starving with the homegirls and they delivered! There's no seating, it's takeout style only. I ordered the shredded pollo & carne asada tacos. They were fire, and I liked the salsa. It came with everything on it. Such a plus how they offer many vegetarian items on the menu. I wish I ordered more, it was really good! read more

We got a burrito, fish fries, and steak fries.fish was flavorful. Steak was flavorful but the fries?! :(( man. Hard no. They tasted like old McDonald's fries. Hard and dry, even semi cold bits... which ruined the meal. Waste of money. Burrito was a rice beans and cheese...good and basic. read more

This review is for the bean and cheese burrito. It contains Spanish rice, pinto beans, and cheese. I thought it was pretty good, it's pretty simple in terms of ingredients and doesn't have the high number of ingredients like most of their menu items. The size of the burrito was really generous. I do still wish Maya Halal offered plant-based meats or other protein options for vegetarians, since I wouldn't consider them among my favorites for vegetarian burritos. But the food quality seems to be consistent and the quantity is generous. read more

This is my neighborhood taco spot! Very no frills, you order at the window and wait for your food to be prepared...no seating except for a few table and chairs outside. My go to orders are their carne asada street tacos, carne asada enchiladas and their carne asada nachos and their agua frescas! The food is fresh, hot and consistently delicious! They're also open late for all of the late night taco cravings! read more

Habibi this place is halal! I had the most delicious birria tacos at this amazing halal Mexican establishment! Don't forget to ask for the consommé. Trust me, the flavors are worth every bite. But heads up - don't come here starving because the wait can be long. Thankfully, they have a food truck that services the Bay Area, which is perfect since I live an hour away. Overall, I'm riding hard for this place! I just love that the logo is a hijabi girl and the owners were so awesome. They hooked it upppp with the salsa and limes. A must try! read more

Maya Halal is hands down the BEST Mexican spot in California! Every visit is a flavor-packed experience. I always go for the Chicken Super Burrito, and it's consistently phenomenal--the rice is perfectly seasoned, the chicken is juicy and full of flavor, and the spicy sauce? Absolutely addictive. The staff is amazing--friendly, welcoming, and always ready to make your meal experience top-notch. Every bite reminds me why this place stands out from the rest. If you're looking for incredible halal Mexican food with killer flavors and outstanding service, Maya Halal is the place to be. read more

I had high hopes! Tried one grilled chicken and steak taco before getting either a super burrito or loaded fries. $4+ each regular taco but should have been called a street taco, as it was 2-3 bites. I wish I had taken a picture but @eatnowpostl8r Steak was minced, chicken was dry. Both had minimal flavor so we decided to end our visit there. The tortillas were griddled nicely and the green salsa was good, habanero was tasty but pretty hot!! Maybe other menu items would be good if covered in salsas, cheese and sour cream? Overall nice service at the window, but not worth the hype. read more

I would usually rate this place at 5out of 5. However, today they get a no star. I ordered on yelp just so I can walk and pick up my food. a lot of times you can't get through to them on the phone because they're so busy. So when I go to pick up my food, I noticed that the yelp prices and the prices at the location are more than two dollars difference. So when I noticed it, I brought it to the cashiers attention. She basically looked at me like I was speaking a language that she did not understand. She told me to contact yelp so I tried to cancel my order so that I could order it cheaper. But she didn't k ow how to do that either. I tried to contact yelp. They were no good either. They told me to contact the business The business told me to contact yelp. I went around forever, not getting any resolution. I know it's only 2-3 dollars but it's the principal. read more

Crazy how I ordered a steak burrito from this place and it literally tasted like shrimp, tasted so much like seafood it was crazy. Not sure what happened did they cook it alongside the seafood that's crazy. read more

I don't even know where to start to be honest. I'm not sure what was nastier , the actual food or the attitude of the girl behind the counter. I purchased nachos and to my surprise the nachos had NO CHEESE. I was then told that I ordered the wrong nachos ........ in what world does nachos have no cheese? The quite literal definition of nachos are chips with melted cheese !!!! I asked for my food to be properly remade and she told me she RUDELY told me all she could do was pour cheese on top . Any authentic Mexican food spot would never put hot cheese on top of cold toppings. I continued to ask questions trying to make sense of their ridiculous policy and she not only gave no clear answers she was RUDE & disrespectful, almost even confrontational. I explained to her that not only were my nachos cheese less but the chips and meat I was served were TERRIBLE . The chips were stale , and the meat lacked flavor (ground beef) . BEWARE OF THIS PLACE. If you don't like your overpriced food or even if it's made improperly, you are stuck with it. They used to have much better integrity. However, at this rate I can see them going downhill FAST. I posted about my experience on social media and the amount of responses I received with similar experiences were massive ! DONT GO HERE ! There are much better Mexican restaurants /trucks all around the city of Oakland . Save your Mexican food cravings for them ! read more

The food here is not good. If you're drunk and you need a place to eat, I guess you can come here, but it's not really that cleanly either. The food is not authentic and the flavors are missing. The service worker, the lady that takes the orders. She's very rude or just not friendly at all. For the price of the food, I feel like that experience is overpriced and the quality does not match the price either. The quality of the food had me asking if this was even Mexican food.. Ambience is not really that safe because there's nowhere safe to sit you're standing outside on the corner. No extra lights were visibility. read more
