delicious, fresh, great value!

i ate here with my boyfriend the other night and we were both very happy with it. it's not a fancy place but it's great for a cheap tasty meal - two people could be full and satisfied for under $20.

i got the enchiladas con carne combo - i chose chicken chile colorado for my meat, which was the "medium" spicy option and sooo delicious. everything on the plate was fresh-tasting and flavorful, even the rice and black beans, which are blah at alot of places.

my boyfriend loved his taco salad with carne asada, and said his house margarita was nice and strong. and their salsa is fantastic - fresh, spicy, addictive.

the food came quickly and the staff was friendly . the portions are a decent size and fairly cheap.

the only thing we didn't like was a fish taco, which had some weird sweet sauce on it and was otherwise bland.

• Pros: delicious, cheap, fresh, awesome salsa!
• Cons: fish tacos not recommended

Lunch at Mayas, Time to move on.

by pdxscott

I have not eaten at Mayas in a year or two. I now work downtown and decided to go there for lunch. I got the lunch special, a chicken burrito, which comes with chips, and a Coke. Total, $7.25 - $5.50 for the special, 1.75 for the drink.

Their salsa is good and was disappointed that when my burrito came and I only got six chips. That?s right, only six chips! Why even bother? I overheard someone else complain about the amount of chips and they were told they could purchase a basket of them. I had two large cartilage chucks in my burrito, which is never good. When I asked for a refill I got a half a class of Coke, no ice. Has the price of ice gone up? Did I do something to make them mad? For a $1.75 for a drink, I expect a full refill with ice.

Mayas is off the recommendation list, way off. The food was not that good, the service was poor and for lunch, it is spendy for what you get.

• Pros: It use to be ok
• Cons: No good for lunch
