Maya’s Taqueria - Authentic Mexican Food — Restaurant in Town of Ossining

Wonderful taqueria with large portion sizes and thoughtful staff. I've eaten TexMex all my life, and this is some top tier food. Even the beans were tasty (which many Mexican restaurants don't put much effort into). The aftertaste was comfortable, which is something I value a lot with restaurant food. Also, even though we dined in, they gave us containers that seal reliably for takeout and speedy, near-perfect service.

When my parents visit the area, I really want to take them here. The only tricky factor is that the taqueria is not very big. With 3-4 tables for guests, I suppose most of the frequent guests do takeout. We went around ~2 PM and there was basically no room for more in-person guests. I would say it's good to visit if you don't mind roaming around Pleasantville if there's no space.

I don't have a particular item I recommend. It was nice to have a salad, but in the words of Eunie from Xenoblade Chronicles 3, should have sought something a little meatier. There's a nice pairing of flavors, especially fresh ingredients, and with their cooking being better than my own, it was a bang for the buck. Since portion sizes are large, you really don't need an appetizer to be full. Flavors are very savory and sweet. There is a tinge of dryness, but the profile of flavors outweighs that. Appreciated the complimentary nachos and mint.

Edit: Visited again! Still delicious, but realized that the beans and rice are essential for squashing any potential oiliness in the aftertaste. Staff were kind & professional even though we intruded on holiday...

The cutest, most authentic, Mexican food you will find. A hidden gem in Briarcliff Manor. Always plenty of street parking available. This place is always kept clean. Sparkling clean! A very small restaurant, with only 4 or 5 tables, that does the bulk of its business in take out apparently. Since we don't live nearby, is a destination for us and we eat in or outside where there are additionally two tables with umbrellas. Every item that is made and comes to your table is always the freshest, and well presented! The ubiquitous corn chips and salsa at the beginning or anything but ordinary. The additionally give you two other salsas on the table. One is a medium verde and the other it is a spicy one. All of them are amazing and compliment every dish. Displayed here is what we ate. We had the enchiladas suiza which had the most amazing verde sauce on top, a chicken torta that was stuffed with grilled chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, sliced avocado and mex cheese, and a steak Burrito that was stuffed and the size of a football! So much food! All items come with french fries which are delicious, but they will substitute anything for you. I always choose to get rice and beans, and my wife always gets this beautiful salad. If and when you have room for dessert, they always have freshly made flan, rice pudding, and tres leches. Plenty of Mexican sodas. Everybody is so kind in this place. The prices are so reasonable as well. This place flies under the radar, but it shouldn't fly...

I drove out to an unfamiliar area and by the end of my visit I was super hungry. I saw a few Mexican food places on the way there so I searched for Mexican places nearby and the pictures of the food here looked awesome and it seemed affordable.

It wasn’t what I expected and there isn’t a lot of places to sit- quite small, but the person at the front was the sweetest and great at taking the orders and was overall very good at his job. He was so pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu and was just lovely.

The food was amazing and affordable. So many different unique options and it was all so fresh and delicious.

If I lived closer I would be there all the time.

This is a truly great place to eat and I so enjoyed my evening meal there. I only wish for them to grow and get a larger place someday! They deserve it.

Thank you Maya’s and thank you to the young man with the round glasses who waited on customers and tended to everyone’s...
