Stopped here for tacos and margs before a concert yesterday and I had one of THE MOST delicious spicy margs I've had in my life. Love the cool and casual vibe and the outdoor section is perfect for a summer night. Will definitely be coming back. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about this place! The breakfast burrito is massive and slept on! I added the al pastor mushrooms and peppers & onions on recommendation from my buddy and I'm so glad I did. They perfectly complemented the beans, fries, eggs, and guac. And they serve the burritos with sturdy tortilla chips! This is definitely a place to come to if you're in the area and hungry. The decor was cool, plenty of seating, clean bathroom, and the staff was nice. Super solid spot. read more

Solid Cal Mex. Super consistent and EVERYTHING on the menu is good. Plus, family owned! It's cool when you watch the kids behind the counter grow up. Stoner approved!! read more

Yummy. Really liked how they cook and season their meet. We tried several options and were very happy. They forgot something with my delivery and were super quick to send someone right over to replace it.... Very happy with the food and the service! Will be back for sure! read more

Disappointing experience with Maya Taqueria and Uber Eats. We have supported Maya Taqueria since the day it opened and usually order in person. Yesterday, we used a buy-one-get-one Uber Eats coupon and ordered two orders of nachos with chicken al pastor. When we got home, there was no chicken -- just onions and peppers. Uber Eats told us to contact the restaurant. The manager called back quickly, but instead of helping, she argued with us and insisted the order came through without chicken. She then sent a copy from the restaurant's system, not an Uber Eats confirmation. Mistakes happen. What is frustrating is the response. No apology, no solution, just arguing with a customer. We have been loyal customers for years, but this was lousy customer service. read more

We stopped on a whim during open streets in Prospect Park area. We ordered a couple burritos. Thirty minutes passed and no food. I went in the store and they lost our order. They make the burritos quick then my partner finds a long straight black hair in his mouth to the burrito. He loses his appetite and they only offer to make another or a drink instead. I ordered the shiitake mushroom al pastor California vegetarian burrito but I think they just put pork birria in it. Probably not going back. read more

Hmmmm...just was passing by and didn't have much time before my gig so I stopped here even though the Yelp reviews weren't that high. Well let's start by saying the employees were so sweet. I was greeted as I walked in and they had me as their attention while I was ordering. I ordered the prawn burrito and tararind drink. I asked was it homemade and they notified me it is made everyday fresh. While ordered my burrito there were choices the cashier asked such as, what type of beans and rice. My order took a bit longer than expected which seem to be because they needed shrimp up front. Once I received my order and then took a second to eat it at another location, I realized they put 5 chips in my bag. There wasn't any salsa...or anything just 5 chips. Wish I would have taken a picture so you could have seen. I was quite confused what I was suppose to do with those chips. Then on to the drink. It was ok. Definitely not the exactly what I am use to but it wasn't terrible either. I wish I would have given the hibiscus drink. The burrito was a let down for me. Let me start by saying it's a decent size. The issue was the inside. Some of the shrimp were over cooked and burnt. So I am eating pieces that are hard and have the burnt taste. It was very unappealing each time I would get to a shrimp. I was really looking forward to the shrimp.... They do offer soups, bowl, enchiladas, burritos and sides. They did state on the menu they have mole but I was afraid to try it due to ready some of the reviews. The prices are high but lots of things are right now. All in all, this place was decent but there are a few things I believe they could do better. read more

Honest review here : The food is decent Mexican food for the area, but, the nocho chips are flour tortillas which is a lazy way to make nachos, corn tortillas aren't as complicated like before read more

I was raised in California so I'm spoiled w Mexican food. Lived in NYC for 5 years and this is by FAR the best burrito I've found in the city. Service is kind and quality. I order takeout and dine in. Inside they play Spanish music and there are a few seats out front and an enclosed patio out back. Their frozen margs are also deliciosoooo!! I love Maya read more

Maya Taqueria - Prospect Heights - Super chicken burrito - Mexican Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

There's not too many Mexican options available in Prospect Heights, so Maya definitely comes in clutch. I usually try to visit for lunch because I love their special. $14 for a burrito, chips and a drink. Their chips are phenomenal. The burrito will fill you up good and their salsas are super flavorful and can definitely get spicy. They also have really tasty loaded nachos and other dinner platters. My only complaint is they really skimp you on the meat here. The portion sizes can be pretty small for everything except the burritos. I would suggest getting an extra taco if you're really hungry! read more

The service was amazing and the food it's soo delicious and i love there there margaritas to go.

Nice to have a California style taqueria in the neighborhood. The food is as good as I remember from my California days.

Been eating Maya every single day ever since cinco de mayo (almost a week). It's convenient that they have quick delivery and the restaurant itself is super cute, with a patio and employees are very friendly. Their Fish/Prawn tacos and prawn quesadilla are extremely good, i just can't get enough! I do wish though that everything was served with salsa and sour cream on the side.. BYOSC (because charging $2 for a tiny cup of sour cream is a bit silly when you are charging $17 for a quesadilla) read more

Maya Taqueria - Prospect Heights - the amount of sour cream i prefer! - Mexican Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A delicious taqueria. It was great to try a new taco place in this area. I went to dine in and never ordered take out. Seemed that they had a lot of take out orders because the delivery men with in and out. The service here is outstanding and employees are friendly. It's also incredibly clean - tables, floors, salsa station and bathroom. The only comment I have is it can become very cold. The door is constantly opening. Just make sure during the winter months you have a sweater. The shrimp quesadilla had a wonderful amount of flavor and spice. Shrimp took an extra 15-20 minutes because it's made fresh to order. I really liked the chicken taco because it was packed with flavor and just the right amount of cilantro. I love a taco with a lot of cilantro - packed with flavor. Had a lot of kick and the 5 year old I went to said, "spicy!" But she added some sour cream on it and she was happy. Horchata is very delicious but extremely sweet. It is slightly different than most places - less watered down and I liked it. It had a creamier consistency. read more

Bad experience coming here in person for a 2nd time in a row. Service is rude to start and then I realized they charged me $19 + tip for a veggie burrito that should cost $13 based on their stated menu prices. I guess shame on me for not sure watching the total but watch out for these crooks read more

The prices at this fast casual spot are borderline criminal. We all know how much rice, beans and tortillas cost. How is $18 for a medium (would "almost" say large) sized burrito garnished with three to four tortilla chips (plus another $5 for a Coke) even legal. The food is pretty decent, but it's not really any better than Chipotle, which is about 1/2 the price and a bigger portion. The people that work there are nice - the ambience is good - place is clean. I would go back again (after I rob a bank). read more

Food was delicious especially the beef fajita bowl. Overall everything was a 5/5; decor was also nice especially the patio; service was fine. Will definitely go back for the food read more

It has been awhile since I last had California burrito and I had to pull the trigger when I found that Maya Taqueria had California Burrito. Ahhhhh Long time no California burrito- Look how marvelous it looks . Their burrito is tasty, no question about that. I think the rating is little on the lower end maybe because of the way they package the food , but it looked exactly socal style: brown bag with burrito and chips inside, so I think this place needs better rating. Check out this place when you crave burrito; i recommend trying california burrito with steak read more

When I'm begging for some birria I'd come here since it's not bad. But the fish taco and chicken taco was not that good. Pretty average. They had a great sauce selection so that's a nice plus. Free water, fast casual dine in. Service was good but the ambiance is literally a fast casual restaurant so it's not someplace you'd go on a date with. The bathroom was so hot it was 15 degrees hotter than the restaurant. If you want to take a dump it's gonna get uncomfortable..... read more

Amazing food, great service, great price. All of these negative reviews are so bonkers...people need help.

Yet another covid-era delivery review... Weird we haven't reviewed our neighborhood Mexican spot. We've ordered from here a few times. Go here for the burritos. They do them well. I especially like their burritos with chicken (of all varieties). I'm also quite fond of their quesadillas, but those aren't as clear a winner as the burritos. Pro tip though- stay away from their tamales. Not their thing... Burritos- stick with the burritos. read more

Food was Great! Service was awesome! Ambiance was clean. Open late too! Def my go to! Also felt very healthy and not salty! Good spot read more

I got the wet burrito with kale and onions and a side of homemade salsa delivered two nights ago. I wasn't too impressed with the burrito - the presentation is not the best, I would've liked more sauce on top maybe even sour cream and pico de gallo, and the inside was mainly beans and rice/ingredients weren't distributed evenly. The homemade salsa was very delicious though! I would definitely get that again. They give so many chips with it (not pictured) that you can used the leftovers later too! read more

stopped by walking on Vanderbilt because seemed like a busy area and wanted a snack. The place is a quick casual dining place where you order indoors and they make your food for you and bring it outside. Also seemed like a busy delivery place. Food: Only commenting on what I ordered: super nachos with grilled mushrooms and retried beans. Honestly it hit the spot on a hungry afternoon but there was nothing overtly great about the place. Typical lots of cheese melted nachos that stick together. Their saving grace was the chips, very thick and flavorful. Withheld the sogginess of typical nachos and were still crispy. The mushrooms were good as well as a non meat option. Overall I probably would grab some quick takeout from here but not going to go out of my way to grab their food. read more

Food quality seems to have gone down in the last year - seems to be less fresh especially enchiladas

Burritos are 5 stars, no questions asked. I have gotten through a few of them and the super burrito is delicious. The chicken with peppers and onions is the best option I've had but the tinga is a close second. I actually gave them a 3.5 star review but then rounded up because I love their burritos so much! Also the staff is so kind and patient. The burrito is worth it to me, but nothing else I've had has been. I was exceptionally unimpressed with the flan. It was not only SO expensive for the very small piece given but it truly tasted like sun tan lotion? Trust me I am a LOVER of flan and think you can't mess it up, but this wasn't good. I'm so disappointed. I had a fish taco that was fine but seemed a little steep (5.75 for one taco!). I saw other reviewers complained about the price but I never paid attention, until I had anything other than a burrito. I'll absolutely still be going back but I will not venture away from my beloved burrito. read more

Your pal Johnny accepts the harsh reality that the days of getting a lunch special under ten smackeroos are -- much like the minidisc, any shot at true American representative democracy, and John Travolta's hair -- now over. Now Maya has been around a while. The burrito has never been especially remarkable. But much like an escort you returns your lonely calls and knocks on your door at 2 AM, it has always been dependable. Until now. Not only has there been a notable nosedive in taste since before the pandemic ("mole" curiously devoid of chiles and chocolate, "Spanish rice" that is absent of kick and may as well be Uncle Ben's), but the burrito size has significantly diminished in size. Look, if I go to a car lot and lay down my Benjamins for an Audi Quattro and you roll out a Messerschmitt KR200, and you insist it's an Audi and STILL ask me to pay for the markup, one of us is going to walk away with the need to see a therapist for six months. And it won't be me. Maya has put its money into art of dubious ethnic origin and has even made it so you can't talk to the dude making your food anymore. And the message couldn't be clearer. This is a tasteless venue for rich white people who don't know any better Maya has thrown a desperate Hail Mary pass in the throes of gentrification. It gets two stars instead of my usual one for past precedent. But your pal Johnny will never set foot in here again. Especially since Nacho Macho Taco is only a few blocks away. And they not only know how to make a burrito properly, but they'll serve you a drink in the middle of the day. read more

I love this place! My boyfriend and I order a few times a month. If you order directly from their website you can save 10%. Can't say over the course of years I've ordered here I've ever had a bad meal and delivery is fast. The chips are made fresh in house. I dine through the Vanderbilt Ave location and this location both are equal and great. Burritos are large and have fresh ingredients. pro tip: order burritos pressed read more

Maya Taqueria - Prospect Heights - Chicken Mole (pressed) and Chips - Mexican Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Coming from California, very disappointing experience. The tacos had no flavor, even when adding guacamole. There was no spice, the meat was probably not marinaded, the white corn tortillas were spongey. If you are used to high quality Mexican food, this ain't it. read more

The food was mid. I thought this was an authentic Mexican, but it's Tex Mex food. I had the tacos and they were pretty good. Flavorful, but not what I was looking for in Mexican food. The guacamole didn't really have flavor, it's pretty bland, maybe it's to cater a particular group of people. Their pico de gallo was also bland. I had better Mexican food. My friends liked the burrito and quesadillas they had. So this place might not be for me, but it could be for you. Try it out. read more

Great chips, the super nachos are just what your greedy inner soul wanted. Concerned about the customer service experience though. Not mine, but observed the manager being brisk and rude with customers that were trying to figure out the system as they waited on their friend to come. It was just enough to make me reconsider coming back or finding another place with great nachos. read more

Ordered a chips and guacamole to go today (Sunday), got home and got 6 chips and a small guacamole in the bag.... not worth the price. Also ordered a chicken quesadilla and there was a burrito in the bag instead. Update: Apparently, I got the wrong order.... 4 stars because what I did get taste good. One less star because I was really looking forward to eating more chips and guacamole! read more

Although I've always had excellent takeaway from here, I didn't have a fantastic time dining. The specialty veggie taco was primarily lettuce and lacked flavor; the hot sauce only made it more spicy. A tamale that I also bought tasted like it had only been briefly microwaved and was only slightly warm. When I returned it, they promised to manufacture another one, but it was still warm. Despite the fact that they gave me a refund, which I appreciated, I don't believe I'll go back to eat here because there are so many other similar establishments close by. read more

Food is amazing. This is the best Mexican food I have ever had. We ate there in person, the restaurant itself is small but not too small (still cute). We ate outside and it felt a bit crowded but it was still comfortable. Service is excellent and they've never gotten our order wrong. We order a lot and it always comes within 35 minutes (and it's never cold)! It is definitely on the pricier side, but I highly recommend it. Also, if you order on their website (and make an account) you get free delivery and 10% off your first order. After that, each delivery is 5% off and there is still no delivery fee. read more

I ordered the chicken quesadilla with beans. They tasted mediocre and the beans were without flavor. I still want to the other food items - maybe there's other stuff that tastes yummy. They also didn't call to notify me that they had dropped off my order, though I asked to meet outside my locked complex. I probably will do carry-out if I try them again. read more

I had decided not to go back to this place but thought I would give them another try after the owners commented on my last review. Today's order came an hour later. Maya is only a few blocks away from my home. Fine. When it finally came, everything was mushy. My Prawn burrito is full of onions, full of spice after I asked in the comments via seamless for "NO ONIONS and NO SPICE". Even the order for my kid which was a "kids burrito" is super spicy. My daughter won't eat it. My Tres Leche cake leaked all over the entire bag. Wasn't packed well so I had to just discard it. Never going back again. Going to stick to my last review. There are authentic TEX MEX places in Park Slope. I'll walk over, get my food, bring it back to Prospect Heights and I will not only get it in a shorter time than I did this order, but I'll get food to my liking. read more

This place is horrible. First, it's expensive and truly not worth the price for this mediocre food and even worse service. We order our food and the girl at the cashier with the blond hair gives me an attitude because I asked something about the menu. We sit in the back which is quite nice but wait more than 20 min for the food to come out. In the mean time we got two cups of the free water which was very hot and no place to actually get ice. Also the utensils don't seem to get restocked regularly because there was only one knife. The food finally comes out and my order was wrong and the guacamole was missing. There was no lime or any type of sauce provided. I told the girl with the blondish streaked hair again and again she responded with an attitude. Besides this the food had no taste. It seems like they're catering to the white folks in the area cause this is not flavorful Mexican food. Also the refried beans are not actually refried. They are a slightly mashed version of the pinto beans. This place truly has bad vibes and energy. For that alone, I suggest not going here. read more

Maya is a 10/10 for me. Everything on the menu is delicious. Ive eaten there once. The restaurant is cute with chill vibes and easy to get to. The staff was super nice. But I had to knock off a star because they played me by charging me $3.50 for that little 2oz pico de gallo. 2oz is a medium?? $3.50 for a 2oz container. They really BUGGIN! Don't get me wrong. It was fire that's why it's almost gone. I'm still going to order from them. Just do yourself and the restaurant a favor and order a large for chips, salsa, and guac. read more
