Maya is consistently wonderful...we have been dining here since it first opened its doors and it's great to see that the kitchen has preserved its same fine quality and delicious favorite dishes. The marinated brisket-topped nachos are a MUST...once you try these, you will never again accept Velveeta-topped salty tortilla chips. Also consider a stand-out carne asada cooked to your preferred doneness...and excellent burger!
