Mayas Restaurant is a captivating Latin dining experience with exciting social rhythms. We feature the cuisines of multiple countries of Latin American, but rather than simply transferring dishes we pay compliment to the ingredients that are natural to Latin America. Our food is prepared from scratch using classic and modern techniques but always remembering the aromas and flavors of our mother's and grandmother's kitchen. We invite you to choose your own escapade by selecting from our Plantains, Ceviches, Empanadas, Curries, Steaks, and Small Plates for a multi-course dining experience.

    The food was ok. The service was pretty terrible- the waiter and waitress seemed annoyed we were there!

    Always a treat. The shrimp and crab ceviche is outstanding. It is more like a shrimp and crab salad with sliced guac than a traditional citrus based ceviche.

    Looking for a quick meal, I asked opentable what was nearby and I was recommended Mayas. Since we had never been there before we decided to give it a try. The meal was fantastic. We started with a bottle of sangria and ordered two appetizers. The appetizers were huge and delicious! I can only recommend things that we tried, and there are so many wonderful choices, but try the seafood tostones... my god they are good. After the apps we were feeling pretty full and wanted to try one more appetizer. We told the server that we really wanted to try the ropa vieja but didn't think we could eat it. She said that that dish was actually smaller than the appetizers we had so we got it.. Delicious! There are so many more things on the menu that we want to try and we can't wait to go back. The place is small and very nice. Our first table was a bit wobbly, but as soon as a different table opened up they moved us over to that one. The server was very nice and was eager to tell us about all of the menu items. Highly recommend that you check out Mayas as soon as you can!
