Great service and insanely good food! Best Chile relleno burrito of my life! And my GF had the carne asada Cali burrito and said it was the best if her life. Place is a sleeper bomb food spot in Carson city! Don’t sleep on it! I will be back

Great food! Great service. I had the tacos mexicanos and the flavor was phenomenal. I loved it. The beans were very good, and also the rice. I also had a watermelon margarita, and it was also very tasty. The only downfall was it took about 45 minutes to get our food, but it was a very busy night.

Home made tortillas . Called last minute for party of 12 people. They accommodated, even with a small staff of 3 employees. Food was hot, fast, delicious and it all arrived together, even with other customers in the restaurant.

Went here with a party of three. The food was delicious for all of us. I ordered a burrito bañado, another in my party ordered clams, and the last ordered tacos. The service was speedy and the waitress was nice. This is a great Mexican restaurant overall.

Finally! So happy I stopped in here. First, I love Mexican food. I make my own tortillas, sauces, and experiment all this time. Today I decided to drop in and give Maria’s a try. I went simple…3 Asada Street tacos. These can be easy to mess up actually. Maria’s nailed it. The meat was perfectly cooked, fresh white onion and cilantro. Classic! The red sauce/salsa that accompanied the dish was amazing. Super flavor and the heat was just right. Next, the service—It’s as though they were happy I was here….a lost art. The other patrons were hispanic…always a good sign. Very pleased with the experience…will definitely be coming back. Thanks Maria’s!
