Maya's Mexican Grill - South Lake Tahoe

Just go if you like delicious authentic Mexican cuisine. You can see the pride of property in this restaurant. It is small, but it is clean and the decor is very beautiful. Almost as nice as the lady who worked the counter and took care of all the tables. This is Cinco de Mayo 2022 and the lunch was bigger than the restaurant, but it manages every customer with glove care. I ordered the Carnitas Plato and when I took my first bite, I understood why it was busy. My wife had the Huevos ranchero and enjoyed it. It has no bar or pleasure drinks or a live music area. But it does not need these “accessories” to overcome a lack of delicious authentic Mexican foods. We have from the great budget restaurants, the mexican-inspired kind like Taco Bell with larger portions, and great selection of alcohol to destroy your taste buds and make food appear better. Mayas doesn't need that. Get what you long, get what you pay and do business with a team that delivers on their mission to provide great tasting food.

This place has some of the best menudo in Nevada. Being from Texas myself, I know good menudo when I taste it! You won't be disappointed! It's a little pricey but hey you're in Lake Tahoe.

Friendly service. Authentic Mexican food (unlike Azul). Delicous drinks. Plenty of variety. Well decorated. Fast service. Family owned. Highly recommend.

Really good authentic Mexican restaurant at reasonable prices. They make their own tortillas. They're a bit on the small side but very good. It's across the street from the south end of the Heavenly Village shopping strip. They only take cash though.

The food is delicious, and the seating options—both indoor and outdoor—are quite cozy. The portion sizes are decent, though slightly smaller compared to what you might find in American diners, which makes the prices feel a bit high. However, the grilled sandwich is a standout dish that you definitely shouldn't miss! Overall, a great experience.
