I found this gem on Yelp and was so excited to try it. It did not disappoint! The decor is super cute, very colorful, and picture perfect. Everyone here was amazing. Memo helped us out, and he was so helpful, funny, and kind. I ordered the Desayuno La Señora with chipotle sauce (which they kindly accommodated), and it was incredible. I enjoyed every bite! The steak was tender, the sauce was rich and full of flavor, and even the sides were delicious. I paired it with a café de olla...so good! My fiancé ordered the molletes con chorizo and chicharrón en salsa verde... WOW. Everything tasted homemade with great flavor. I will definitely recommend this place and will absolutely be coming back! read more

The service was great! The staff was super friendly and go out of their way to answer any questions. The inside of the restaurant is super cute, love the decor. It is located in a small shopping center. There is a small parking garage and the restaurant is on the corner of that shopping center. We ordered the cafe de olla (7/10), tacos de canasta as an appetizer (8/10), La Cazuela (8/10), chilaquiles w/birria (7/10) - the birria and chilaquiles were dry, needed more sauce, the chilaquiles w/chochinita pibil were my favorite (10/10), they had the perfect amount of sauce and flavor. Overall, a cute restaurant with great staff and service! read more

Maiz is in the heart of Tijuana. It is not huge, it is adorable with cute things on the walls and wonderful seats. The place is clean and comfortable. We loved everything about it. The prices are really fair and you will get a great meal there. The service is so nice and welcoming. Don't worry if you don't speak Spanish, they will help you and sometimes they have English and Spanish speak servers. They know the menu well and will get your order pretty fast and always right. If you want a mild sauce, they will do that. If you want something painfully hot, they can do that as well. The salsas are just great and they have a super selection. I hear their coffee is great, but I am a coward and don't drink anything made with tap water. But that is just me. All of their food is great and you will be happy with whatever you order. We love their Chilaquiles with Cecina and eggs. read more

Came here on a quick trip to Tijuana and was in need of an authentic shop with delicious food. The server and workers were very friendly and accommodating as well so I appreciate that. Quesadilla 5/5 - I'll have to say that this was a very delicious dish. I could tell the tortilla was handmade and that they used high quality ingredients especially in the cheese as well. It came with options to add red salsa topping which was spicy and a green one which was less spicy. It also came with pickled onions as well to add it on top since it's only the tortilla, cheese, and meat. The sizing is pretty big and I got full off of one, so also keep that in mind. This place also had a variety of what it seems like local cuisine. I saw other people who ordered soups like Pazole and it looked really good so I'll have to come back and try that out next time. Would definitely recommend! read more

The absolutely best Mole I ever had! Everything here is made from scratch. With pure & raw ingredients. It's a beautiful hole in the wall with grandmas in the open kitchen preparing traditional masterpieces. I originally came for their cochinito pibil but they had sold out. Their guacamole was amazing their Jamaica hibiscus tea was phenomenal read more

Was very disappointed here. I ordered birria. Basically the bowl was all broth with a few shreds of beef in it. I basically had to eat it like soup. 240 pesos, or about $15 USD for what amounted to beef consommé. I'm from Los Angeles, so I'm used to overpaying, but for Tijuana that was ridiculous. That was a $5 meal at best, but even for $5, I wouldn't go back. I literally couldn't even make one taco with the amount of beef I was given. I ended up just dipping the tortillas into the broth and fished out the few beef shreds that I could with my spoon, not easy when it's swimming in broth. I don't know why this place gets such good reviews. Maybe something has changed, but not for the better. My server was very polite though. I would have preferred to go to Tacos El Franc and get two tacos for $5 USD, but they weren't open yet, sadly. read more

Location is small but do not let that stop you from going in. The employees are so friendly and welcoming. Food tastes homemade. Menu has a good selection. I did learn that not everything on the menu is available all day so just make sure you ask before wanting to order the gorditas. Pancakes had such an amazing flavor to them. Steak was well cooked. Chilaquiles sauce had good flavor and wasn't spicy. Plates are definitely a good size. Would definitely recommend! read more

La experiencia en este restaurante fue, en general, satisfactoria. El servicio fue amable y atento, y el ambiente resultó acogedor y agradable. La comida, aunque bien presentada, fue promedio y careció de sabores más definidos; además, algunos platillos llegaron a la mesa fríos. En conjunto, es un lugar con buen servicio y ambiente, pero con margen de mejora en la propuesta gastronómica. read more

This little corner place is exquisite! I google restaurants nearby and came across this place when staying at the Gran Hotel Tijuana; trust me you won't go wrong or be disappointed! The service is amazing! The owner is amiable, cordial, and nice! The place is very small yet very comforting; made me feel like I was at my mom's kitchen. The food is AWESOME! It's like homemade! I loved the quesadillas de huitlacoche with chicharron rojo. My daughter had the eggs and steak plate, my partner had the pozole, which he loved. I had the Cazuelita, which I really want to go back and have again. The twins had a pancake that was rich and buttery! Yummy! Everything was great! You must visit MAziZ when in Tijuana! Highly recommend it! read more

Review this over a year ago so decided to stop by again. Soups were very delicious and flavorful and portions were enough to not stuff you but keep you full. Place hasn't changed since I last came in. Still has the old Mexico look and feel to it. The waiter was very nice and we tried the soups on his recommendation and he was absolutely correct. read more

My husband and I love this place. The ambiance is very cute and they're very friendly and attentive here. This time around I got a quesadilla de huitlacoche and this breakfast plate, think it was para campeones. The food was delicious and the service was exceptional. We will continue to visit this place and I highly recommend it. I've also gotten their flan here and it's delicious. read more

Maíz - Cochinita pibil - Mexican Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

Appearance of food: A+ ** look at the pictures Flavor: A down to a C- ** sauce was delicious but the chicken inside was very dry and hard. Spanish rice is good and cooked well. Price: C ** Prices in TJ are going up. Almost similar to prices you could get in San Diego. Total bill with tip, around $35. It's kind of a bummer because one of the reasons why I like going down to Tijuana is getting delicious food for half the price it is in San Diego but that's not the case anymore. Atmosphere: B ** Inside decor is ok, table furnishing could be better than the vinyl table cloth but I guess it's easy cleaning. Service: B ** Standard Overall I give this place a 3 1/2 stars. read more

Saw this place had really good reviews and decided to head over for a quick bite while in TJ. The place looked very aesthetically pleasing and was in an easy to reach location. The security guard in the parking lot was also a huge plus for me. I loved the tiffany color of the wall and the bathroom was very clean. A total win in TJ where the bathrooms can be an entire horror story. Service: The workers are very nice, but if you're looking for a quick bite to eat, I would suggest looking elsewhere. The food took quite a while to make. In total, we waited about 30 minutes for 1 pambazo, 3 quesadillas, 1 birriaquiles, and an order of pancakes. Wait time aside, the food wasn't my fave. My mom really liked their birriaquiles, and we both enjoyed the chicharrón quesadilla, but the pambazo and quesadillas de huitlacoche and mushroom fell very short on the mark for us. I think they lacked seasoning or even just some salt to bring out some of the natural flavors. Overall, a really cute place but not one that stands out in the food department read more

The service was good but the red chilaquiles had no flavor. Even after adding some salt, very bland. I had better chilaquiles at the free breakfast provided by the hotel I stayed in. My sons quesadilla with meat was good, and my mother in law said she liked what she ordered. We got three dishes and one quesadilla, plus three coffee for $60 USD, which I thought was a little pricy considering I had 6 medium sized lobsters and some fried shrimp for $50 USD in Puerto Nuevo. read more

What a wonderful find this place was! The place is small but cute and super clean. When you walk in, they do a temperature check and give you sanitizer. The menu is available by QR code and easy to navigate their options. I have to point out the most important though: the food was delicious!! Attentive staff. The man who took our order was the best and made the experience so much better with his attention to detail and for making us feel at home. I ordered their strawberry Jamaica water and it was so good! For appetizers we had their tiny tacos made with potato, meat, and beans. Then we were served a bowl of sopa de fideo which was tasty. My main dish was their chicken enchiladas in mole. Holy mole! They were bomb! For dessert we tried a crepe cake with peaches. It was like HEAVEN!!! Will definitely be back whenever I'm in Tijuana again. Give them a try, it will not disappoint. read more

Excelente!!! Me encantó el desayuno auténtico mexicano y el servicio perfecto, totalmente recomendado!

1 star for decor; cute, matching manteles to menus. The vibrancy is almost iconic for this place with the exuberant colors. 1 star for service: amiable, hasty service. The people here are detail oriented with making sure you feel welcome and noticed. 1 star for ambiance; the customers make the the ambience as loud or as quiet as they want. I find that to be alluring. 1 star for food; simple menu usually suggests a restaurant is exceptional at the entrees/items offered. This place is no exception. A quant menu full of rich, ingredients. The presentation, decadent. 1 star for prices; I am not familiar with local prices and in that make a fair comparison. I find Maíz to be affordable for my pocket book. Overall, a small gem in TJ. Definitely worth a morning visit. read more
