  • My dad always used to tell me that the best Mexican food comes from "hole in the wall" places. I wouldn't quite call Maria's a "hole in the wall", but it is a very small Mexican restaurant with some of the best authentic food in town. The attached bakers is also extremely good with low prices. I came here the first time a few years ago after a friend told me that his daughter, who had moved out of Las Vegas, comes here every time she returns to Vegas to visit. I was hooked from the very first meal. I grew up eating Mexican food in Southern California, and though there are a lot of good restaurants in Las Vegas, Maria's stands above most of them. I don't know where to start on the food, as we've never had anything bad here. Everyone we have ever taken here or brought with us loves the food here. The surf and turf burrito (carne asada and shrimp) is just phenomenal. The steak is fantastic, the shrimp is seasoned perfectly, the burrito is huge, and it's served wet with a perfect enchilada sauce and melted cheese. I honestly don't think there is anyway for this burrito to get better. The combo meals are very good to. Choose from enchiladas, tacos, mini-burritos, chili rellenos, etc... You honestly cant go wrong no matter what you order. They have a combo meal that comes with carne asada, an enchilada, a chimichanga and a chili relleno for $18. It's a massive meal and enough for two people to share, and everything is high quality. The restaurant is very small, with only about a dozen tables and only one server working. Despite how good this place is, it never seems to be packed, so we always get very good service. The Bakery is right next door to the dining area. The Mexican pastries are very good, and they are dirt cheap. I love their pineapple pastries and macaroons in particular, though most of the other items are good to. The only thing I really don't care for is their cookies, which are very large but crumbly and dry. If you like dryer cookies (and some people do, my wife always gets a peanut butter cookie every time we are here) then you will probably love these. Nothing wrong with their flavor, but I'll take moist and chewy cookies over crumbly and dry any day. In my opinion, this place is a hidden gem that is well worth trying. If you are a fan of Mexican food, then I would try to make it here some day.
