Maria's Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Glendora

To the discerning critic, Marias may seem simple. It is possible that, yes, the menu is somewhat basic. However, what stands out to me is what can't be seen through the menu. The food will never win a James beard award. However, the food is hearty, the beans are creamy, the rice is fluffy, and the mole is satisfying in a way I can't really describe. Perhaps it's my bias. I have been eating here for nearly 40 years. So little has changed in that time that Perhaps what i like most about this place is my childhood nostalgia. It's fair to say that Marias is the quintessential mom and pop family restaurant. It is a family run family restaurant. A member of a dying breed of business that hasn't changed and does things on their terms. This place, in many ways, shows all the good that this country has to offer? A place where a family can come with a good idea, some grit and work ethic, and make a name for themselves. That is what has been taking place at Marias for the last 50 years. This is my favorite restaurant in the world. And i truly have traveled a good part of the world. I still come back to this place over and over. Nothing will change how I feel about this restaurant. And hey, the food...

She then immediately brought us in but she had to have her say. Apparently they were ready to customers she just chose to be rude. The host are usually very quick and friendly but not this one I know help is hard to get these days but at least put a friendly person as...

pretty much exactly what you would expect from a mexican restaurant in glendora, california. it's definitely mexican food for white people, but still pretty good. the guac is yummy; not spicy at all. we had the chicken tacos with a crunchy taco shell and shredded cheddar. it's like upgraded taco bell. the atmosphere is cozy, the tortilla chips are served warm, and the servers are friendly. sunday night was decently busy but the food still came out fast. is this review mean? i feel like this review could be seen as mean. honestly it was better than i expected. like the salsa was a little spicy, but it was yummy. i would eat here again after, like, maybe a little league baseball game or something? one margarita and some nachos to celebrate Kennedy's first home run or...
