Wonderful food if they can deliver what you order the first time would definately be a big help. Being willing to correct it would be a bigger help. I don't think all three of u...

Hello Happy Hour! 4/14/2010

Many a place in San Francisco offers some sort of a happy hour, but most places do not offer it all night long. Maya offers their $2 tacos and $5 array of margaritas from 4:30pm until close. For those of us that have been to Blue Light for Taco Tuesday, we know that happy hour tacos are usually lack luster, but these tacos are amazing. They have a huge range of options from carne asada or chicken to more exotic options like red snapper or vegetarian options; all of which come topped with a delicious salsa (from what I?ve seen so far a different type of salsa comes on each type of taco). As if all of that wasn?t reason enough to go to Maya, they serve complimentary appetizers from 4:30pm-7pm. Pros: $2 Tacos & $5 Margaritas Cons: You must order a minimum of 2 of the same taco. more

Fresh & delicious 3/10/2007

I am not a huge mexican food fan but I enjoy this restaurant & have dined there a few times. Tip: The $20 prix fixe lunch is a great deal which includes appetizer, entree, sorbet & non-alcoholic beverage. In fact, 2 of the prix fixe lunches may be shared among 3 diners if they are not large eaters. Tamal al chipotle - yummy. Quesadillas surtidas - ok. Ensalada de espinaca - ok, nothing special. Pepito (torta) - delicious, skirt steak was tender. Quesadilla abierta de camarones - ok, lots of cheese & only 3 shrimp. Mole poblano - tasty. The sorbets were fresh & fruity. Recommend the agua fresca beverage. Downside - noisy due to 2 large groups & the music. Pros: prix fixe $20 lunch Cons: noisy, weekday parking challenge more

Go for the top-shelf margarita, but the concept and execution of the food was way off 11/11/2006

I went to Maya on a Friday night. There were 8 of us, so I had a good overview of the food selection. There was a lamb sirloin dish on the menu, which was unusual for a Mexican restaurant. So I took the plunge and ordered it. I don't recommend at all. The meat was gamey and tough. The balsamic-infused portabello mushroom garnish was a nice idea, but was heavy-handed. My friend had the carnitas (roast pork) dish. That was the only good dish on the menu. The desserts weren't that special. I recommend Maya only for the high-end tequilas. more

Best Snapper and Margaritas Ever! 10/11/2006

rakeshtondon Provided by Partner
This ain't no burrito joint - ain't no taqueria. It's where you want to go for grand mexican food. We went there expecting a lot, and were pleasantly surprised to get more than we expected. The guac was fresh, spicy and just perfect. The Chilli Rellenos were the best I've ever had, and the red snapper was the freshest I've ever had in San Francisco. Even the variety of drinks impressed my fiance, and added to the excellent meal we were already enjoying. Two thumbs up big!!! I highly recommend it. Please make reservations to avoid a wait. The service is so-so, but overall makes for a great evening. Pros: Excellent food - fresh and tasty Cons: Service is kamsi-kamsa more
