Taqueria Maria Napa Reviews
To start, this is the best Mexican food restaurant in Napa. I have been coming here for several years. Additionally, the food has no comparison: fresh, authentic, and consistent. The neat thing about this establishment is that it's family-owned and operated. The whole team is amazing. Finally and most important, special thanks to Sarai; she is a sweetheart.
Tony was the best. He recommended the perfect taco salad with my chili relleno, gave my son his birthday cake, kept checking in on us making sure that we were comfortable had everything we needed. He is the best make sure you keep them. Don’t ever let them go. He’s just so friendly and looks fabulous Thank you Tony!!!
Attended for my birthday evening, great service from the start. Found a table immediately and the server Tony provided excellent services as well as recommendations for the table. Highly recommend!
Speaking as a non-Mexican but this restaurant was like being back in Mexico! Loved the service and generosity of the people working here. They’re active, looking to cater to your needs. We had a baby and they brought us an avocado upon request and accommodated a special request. I think restaurants barely do this anymore and this place is truly a gem!
Amazing amount of delicious food at an amazing price. The guacamole was outstanding as well. On top of that, the waitress Alejandra was upbeat and very attentive. I am KETO and she managed to accommodate my special request. Thank you Alejandra. Highly recommended.
A well appointed and family atmosphere, Taqueria Maria is not your typical taqueria. While most taquerias are pleasant enough, they tend towards a cafeteria atmosphere. Maria was sit-down with wait service restaurant. My wife and I had Maria's fajitas. The food was great, and plenty of it. Easily got 6 wraps of delicious shrimp, chicken, and beef fajitas. Also, considering the normal prices in touristy Napa, the cost was lower than average.
Had the best dinner with my mom and friend (first time in Napa) and was happily greeted by the best server ever, Tony! Was so attentive and offered the best suggestions—ask for the spicy marg! We love you Tony!
We were recommended to try Taqueria Maria for some authentic Mexican food during our visit to Napa. When we arrived, I was a bit surprised that they were so busy. We were pleasantly surprised at the selections; settling on the lengua plate and chile relleno plate. Both plates were delicious and since I am always in search of a good chile relleno theirs did not disappoint! Sauce, cheese and flavor were exceptional. Kudos to the cooks and staff!
Amazing mexican restaurant.the food and drinks have a good taste.the wine is excellent.the staff warm welcome kind e professionaland brilliant.close the river refresh to stay. Inside and outside uge table and salon big parking Easy to arrive at restaurant.the place is beautiful and close to bus stop. I recommend a visit.
1tap beer 7$ (*it is tap not top) Very-very nice riverfront location Chips, food good quality dissent freshness. Solid portions. Pretty service. Nice neighbors uphill.🥲 They didn’t have chairs, you have to climb in to the bench, to seat outdoors. Mexican food on a camping. Tap Beer, 1 menu order, 1 soda. $37+tips
In my opinion.. the price for the dish.. waaaay off.. paying for the napa title. Honestly it's just Mexican food. It was good tho.. The drink was strong like it should b. So that was a big plus. Nachos was done well. Even though they didn't bring sauce plates until asked for. The server was helpful and a good kid. But not on his hustle. Id probably do drinks here again.
I want to like this place so bad but the food just isn’t good. We were a group of 8 and most of liked but didn’t love our food. I had the chicken tortilla soup and that was actually pretty good. My mother in law had the chimichanga and it was about 50% rice. My wife had the worst shrimp burrito I had ever had. Very little shrimp. The filling was very runny and you kept buying into chunks of hard veggies. No desire on my part to come back here.
I ordered a burrito and it was so salty that my tongue and lips hurt. It was just no eatable! Thats why i left one start. They served it with hand made tortillas. The salsa for the chips was good it had a good flavor. The place looks big and clean. It was not full. The parking g area is not too big.
