Very nice colors and decor, bright and clean inside. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Was seated and immediately greeted by our server. Free chips & mild or hot salsa!! We had the Texas fajitas. A plate full of steak, chicken, and shrimp with rice, beans and lettuce bowl. It also came with two flour tortillas. The food was very good and excellent prices for the amount of food. We also had the sopapilla dessert. Very good!

The food was delicious The service was also good. I changed up my order and they got it perfect. I have to admit when we pulled up to the restaurant (a friend's choice) I was ready to drive off. Attached to a gas station and not great signage. But I would totally recommend.

Los Mayas Mexican Grill was a great spot for a family dinner. I went with my wife and we shared the steak fajitas for two, which came out sizzling hot and full of flavor. They were served with guacamole, tomatoes, lettuce, rice, and beans—all fresh and delicious. The chips and salsa were complimentary, and they kept them coming throughout the meal, which was a nice touch. We were there to celebrate my mom’s 63rd birthday, and the staff made it really special by singing to her, giving her a scoop of ice cream, and even putting a big white sombrero on her for the celebration. We had six people in our group and spent around 97, which felt very reasonable for the quality of food and service we received. It was a fun and memorable experience!

We ate at Los Mayas on the weekend, it looked busy but we got a table right away. Our portions were generous, we split fajitas for two people and even packed some to go. I liked salsa bar and the salsa was flavorful and actually spicy! Finally we found some authentic salsa.
