Maya Mexican Restaurant - Review - Cebu City - Cebu - The Infatuation

"When you spot Maya’s unmistakable neon sign, you know the night’s about to take a turn. This Mexican restaurant feels like an all-out party. Inside the sprawling, two-story space is a bar stocked with one of the country’s most extensive fine tequila collections, nacho platters piled so high with salsa roja and smoky beans, you’ll wish you didn’t grab that late lunch, fan-favorite pollo de ajo fajitas, and birria burritos you’ll want to ask for “smothered” (extra helpings of melted cheese and chili gravy). On Sundays, things get even livelier: Maya has been the home of the longest-running salsa social in the Philippines, hosted by the Cebu Salsa Club, for 11 years running. There’s no cover charge, and the taxi dancers are free—so you’re out of excuses." - Chandra Joshua
