   Maya Restaurant definitely made my Saturday one to remember. Their bottomless mimosas menu is seriously impressive — not only do they offer a variety of mimosa flavors, but they also let you choose different types of booze for your drinks, which adds a fun twist. They even have a Bloody "Maria" (not Mary!) that was such a cool surprise. As for the food — they delivered exactly what their menu promised. The bottomless food options were delicious, and every bite was packed with bold, authentic Mexican flavors. Overall, such a fun and flavorful experience!

   Maya is always an amazing experience. From the friendly service and the delicious food and carefully crafted drinks, Maya is a 10 tradition for me, one that is not going to change any time soon. I am dreaming of the octopus chicharrón- what a treat!!!

   Delicious food. My friend daughter in law and I did the all u can eat and drink brunch. The only item that wasn’t wonderful was the shrimp enchilada. It wasn’t bad. Just not great. The rest of the food and drinks were outstanding.

   MAYA, once an outstanding Mexican restaurant in Manhattan, has become very ordinary in its offerings and presentation. The margaritas lacked any edge, the guacamole, which was previously prepared tableside, is now dished up with droopy parsley. The dining room has not been updated in over 15 years. I hadn't been to MAYA in many years but was drawn back by my fond remembrances. It was disappointing.

   This brunch was amazing! Is it a gimmick? Yes. Could you get brunch for less than $60? Yes, but everything was wonderful, they move quick and get you literally as much food and drinks as you can eat. Absolutely worth it!

   First time at Maya and we’ll be back! It is a lively place (especially for happy hour!) with a great vibe, friendly service and really good food. Our server (Antonia?) was very attentive and not intrusive. We each had fajitas (chicken and steak). All came out sizzling and were very tasty! They were a bit light on the guac that came with the fajitas, but it a minor complaint. The guac that we had as an appetizer was excellent (we got the mild version). My only issue was the noise level during dinner - if the dining room is crowded as it was when we were there, it can near impossible to carry on a conversation. That minor issue aside, my overall comment is: ‘Viva Maya’

    Best brunch value, bottomless food and drinks for around $60 before tips, and trust me you’re going to want to tip. Our server Fernanda was awesome, we had everything, we drank everything, the whole staff was amazing. Rebecca who wasn’t our server also made a point to make it special for my girlfriend and I. Good luck getting anything done after. It’s nap inducing.
