Editorial Review for Maya's Mexican Bistro – by Jen Girdish
In Short
Nestled in the corner of a strip mall, this bistro has a muted Mexican decor. The door and wood paneling is left over from a former steakhouse tenant, and the portraits of Frida Kahlo seem more like afterthoughts. Food is the enticement here. The menu is literally split down the middle: traditional taqueria items, like tacos and enchiladas, on the right--and the chef's specialties, like tender salmon marinated and wrapped in a banana leaf, on the left. For $5, a server will make delicious guacamole in front of your table.

When I arrived at Mayas the service was very substandard with an aloof waiter who didnt even know the menu. I ordered some fish tacos and a pork soft taco and it is safe to say that I was really unhappy with both. I am typically NOT a complainer...look at my other reviews, and I am not mad about it but I just wouldnt waste your time here with so many good options out there. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME is the simple message here. These people think they have it figured out and it is clear that they wont be in business for long. Did i mention Manny's or Los Corrals...the more I think of it the more this place is an absolute JOKE...happy dining..
Pros: it only lasted an hour and I wont ever be back
Cons: the food and the management

A great place to people watch and nosh with your Mexi (and non) friends. The always friendly (mostly Mexican - or maybe just hispanic) staff mixes up a great guacamole while the regulars pick great tunes on the jukebox. Be careful of the hot sauce, it's not for the average gringo who's accustomed to nothing hotter than a jalapeno. Delicious tortas...try the lengue.
