El Maya — Restaurant in Marionville

Our second visit has left me planning our third. Such great food. Our first visit was a large party for my son's birthday. The food was very good and very reasonably priced. Everyone tried something different and no one was disappointed. The service was excellent and the food was tasty. Our second visit was only myself and the kids, but we were no less impressed with everything. We tried the Fiesta Dip as an appetizer. It was wonderful. I only wished it was larger or we'd ordered two. The kids shared the El Maya Nachos and they were awesome! Chicken, steak, and shrimp on the chips with a generous amount of cheese and veggies. I would have been jealous had I not been busy enjoying my burrito. My only trouble here is what I will order next. Their menu has a specialties section that has so many tasty sounding choices it may be months before I have been able to sample them all. I can't wait for...

First time being here, gotta say not the best Mexican place. Their service was slow. When we got the chips and dip, the salsa was a little bit spicy, not best if you are not too big on spicy food or have kids. Once we got menus and ordered, it was a bit of a wait for our food. My dislike was my husband and I got our food before my kids. When they got their plate, ordered a chicken and cheese enchilada but compared to other Mexican restaurants there wasn't much there, just the 2 enchiladas. The carnitas we ordered were spicy, a bit too much. There was only cilantro and onions, no tomatos. The taste of the food was good, but a bit too spicy. They go heavy on the spice. The beer we ordered was very snunky, like it been cold, then warm and then cold again. The margarita was very limey and sour. Its okay for a local...

Ohmygoodness where to begin! Okay, so let's start with the food: IT WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD! The food was delicious and just the right balance of spicy and zest; the pork was tender and flavorful, their salsa was scrumptious, and their rice was perfect! Now for service: also great! Our waitress was very hospitable and checked on us regularly. The food was served in less than 10 minutes from placing our order and was obviously fresh. Last, but definitely not least, the decor/atmosphere: very tasteful and I love the Aztec theme! The colors are bright and really make the place seem open and welcoming! Over all, this is definitely worth the stop and I know I will be coming back in the near future! (If I lived closer, I would easily become a regular!) So if you're craving some spectacular Mexican food, STOP...
