Casa Maya Grill

If you want authentic Mexican cuisine in South Florida then this is the place to go. This is the real deal. Chef Emilio travels to Yucatán, Mexico every 3 weeks to bring over the spices they use to make their dishes perfect. You can truly taste the quality. I was absolutely blown away by every dish we ordered. This a a family establishment and when you dine there you’ll feel like family. The servers are on point and will never let your drink be empty. They are very observant and are some of the best I’ve seen. I myself have eaten multiple tacos in Mexico and the food here is just as good, if not better. Emilio’s daughter Tita took over the restaurant 2 years ago and is doing an amazing job carrying out Emilio’s vision. This restaurant is a staple to our community and we will continue to dine here.

My husband and I had dinner there last night. It felt like a nice hidden gem away from the hotel area. We were greeted by a super friendly host and seated right away. The staff were also very welcoming and helpful. Our server was very knowledgeable and explained the flavors of menu items perfectly as I was asking for suggestions. The food and drinks were delicious. Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the area, and we will be back next time we visit.

A Hidden Gem! I had a spicy margarita and the combo fajitas—both were absolutely delicious. They even offered chips and salsa on the house, which was a nice touch. The ambiance really stood out, especially the illuminated countertop bar—it gave the place a modern yet cozy vibe. High-quality food, high-quality people, and it's family owned and operated, which you can feel in the care they put into everything. Definitely coming back!

We stopped for lunch,got guacamole and steak fajitas. We received a complimentary salsa with chips.Our waitress was very nice and was checking on us frequently.

Our party of 10 loved this place! We walked here from the Wyndham Deerfield Beach, which was a nice, 20 minute walk. Totally worth it! Our group loved the food, drinks, atmosphere, and service. Gaby was our server. She carefully took our order (without writing anything down), and somehow got everything correct. Everything was delicious.

It was my first time here and I came on a Tuesday. I got this drink with guava, Guavarita it was so good. I recommend it. The restaurant has margaritas at a good price. It seems they have this awesome deal going with the tacos. We all got the tacos. The restaurant had a good selection to choose from. Most places only give you maybe 4 but this place has a good selection. They gave us a menu and a list to write down how many and which one. They then brought us the tacos. I liked them. I found them all good. The service was good and friendly. Olivia was great. We originally had to wait for twenty minutes to be seated. There is no fan bar you can wait. The counter is crowded with restaurant stuff. That would be my only complaint.

The place seems very clean and decoration was tasteful. It smelled appetizing, they served about 4 sizzling fajita to neighbor tables 😋 The service was great but food was slow to reach us, at least the server acknowledged the fact and offered more nachos with salsa for the wait. Taco steak beef was very tender and fresh. They have a bar area with a couple of tables in the back, this restaurant makes very good use of their space without feeling too clotted. I would recommend it!

this restaurant is a local gemin Deerfield Beach. The new location maintains the same excellent food quality, but with a more authentic upscale Mexican feel. I’ve been coming here for years, and the experience always leaves me happy and satisfied.

Excellent food, amazing service , ask for Gabriela from Uruguay!!!! just don't tell here if she is from Argentina...

My wife is a big fan of grilled Octopus and a friend recommended we try Casa Maya Grill. We visited and were delighted, and returned again the following weekend for dinner. The restaurant is located in a plaza that has a two hour limit on parking. During our second visit we discovered that you don't need to do that in the evenings. Service was friendly and the ambiance was casual yet warm. We have had the Octopus dish on every visit, an it is consistently amazing. My wife has eaten octopus. In countless restaurants, and she considers Casa Maya's top 3. Everything in the menus was excellent, from the Margaritas to the Conchinito Pibil. My only one negative, to be fair, is that I felt Guacamole portion was small, specifically considering the price. Otherwise, everything was delicious and fairly priced. If you love Octopus, or Mexican food in general, give Casa Maya Grill in Deerfield Beach a visit.

Amazing food amazing service! Jordan was so pleasant and the rest of Staff was also wonderful. The food was good and the margaritas were so yummy! Come check it out!

We have been eating here for nearly 10 years and much preferred the previous location. It was more intimate and welcoming. The back bar was a great spot and when Luis was working the bar, the service was also top-notch (when Luis was working). That said, the food here is really very good. Now the service is not so good. I think Luis is mananging, but I have not seen him in a long time. Sat at the bar last night and when we got there, there was one person at the bar sipping a cocktail. We ordered dinner and after the food was brought out, we were left to our own devices while the bartender, and I use that term lightly, was more concerned with cleaning and closing the bar out - it was 8:15pm. Never were we asked "how is everything" or "can I refill your water", etc. We were asked if we wanted after-dinner drinks, coffee or a dessert...clearly just an upsell. This is a common theme around here lately where the servers clearly don't care. Too bad it happened here, we loved this place...we are local and if the service was better, we'd come back again....but I think I'm done here.

Drinks were tasty and mixed well. The fish ceviche was a nice balance of flavors and the texture was pleasant. The service was exceptional and kind. The restaurant is beautiful! The SALSA was the unexpected star. Will definitely be returning!

Traveling alone and hungry for some delicious spicy food. This was the perfect place to fill my cravings. The staff took great care of me and promptly brought out my food and drinks. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The salsa, the salad and the dinner had just right spice and completely hit the spot! I can't wait to go back and try something new.

Found out about this place from Yelp actually, and wanted to try! Cozy, neighborhood vibe located in the cove plaza. Friendly service and the bar area felt updated and sleek. Started with prickly pear and watermelon margaritas which were tasty but kind of on the sweeter side. The chips and salsa they brought out were delicious. Mole rojo burrito was really good and you can taste the chocolate in the mole which was nice and authentic for Mexican cuisine. My friend liked the mahi fajitas and mentioned the flour tortillas were great. The only gripe I have is that the refill of chips and salsa was $4. Supposedly it was on the menu in really small writing. We weren't told there was a fee for refill when we ordered it and that's quite petty and bush league. I asked the server and he said the busboy should have alerted us upon ordering -- when in fact HE took the order. He apologized and said that's not right and then did nothing. When I got home the online menu said $2 for refill and we were charged $4. This isn't a complaint about $2, but rather that the online menu is misquoted and our server should've said there was a fee. It's always the PRINCIPLE of the matter not the cost. The food was good and worth returning to, but when management makes a goof and won't even eat $4 off the bill, it is hard to ignore that.

Been coming here for years, taco Tuesday is the best! Pork belly, crispy mahi & steak are my favorites! Don't forget the margaritas. Jordan was quick with the service

We've been to this restaurant multiple times and it is always fantastic! It's never too loud, and the food is always delicious. Today our server Jordan was excellent, super kind, and always ready to help. This is definitely one of the best restaurants in Deerfield Beach. Definitely worth it!!!

This place was not great. There is a lot of parking and bathrooms available. There is a large restaurant with lights but this place is NOT lit up which made it hard to find at first. The server was nice but the actual restaurant was not a great experience. I had a spicy margarita and it was decent but I ordered the fajitas to share and when it came out they just brought the tortillas and the fajita plate with the meat. It was a very small amount of meat. But nothing else. I had to ask does anything else come with this like lettuce and I was told I would have to order that separately. Which is weird because why would that be separate it's not a high cost item and usually goes with the fajitas. Finally I flagged my server down because I saw the menu said it did come with rice and beans so I asked for them and he was like oh yeah I guess you do get that. Honestly the food wasn't that good, the service was slow, and you better know exactly what's on the menu or they'll try to give you the bare minimum. They also started me with a basket of chips and salsa and they said "this is your ONE complimentary basket of chips and salsa" which we wouldn't have asked for two anyways just everything seemed so cheap and sneaky here. I would not recommend.

Such a bummer to have your fav restaurant fall so bad. Last night we waited a good half hour for a table for 4. Ok. We ordered drinks and water and had to ask several times for the water. We waited forever for the chips and salsa to be served. The chips were stale and salsa flat. I ordered sea food fajitas. I specifically asked for corn tortillas (allergic to flour) they brought flour.... Twice!! A person in our party ordered a salad and an enchilada. They brought her enchilada before her dinner salad... no refills on drinks, they are now served from a can. My shrimp was ok but the fish tasted strong and old. Street tacos over priced for a taco soo small, it's gone in two bites. I used to eat here at least once a week... I gave it another try... just disappointed. We have a large group of friends who have always frequented this establishment and have now stopped.

All the tacos are amazingggggg!!! Must try. Service is great and everyone is so kind. I usually come on taco Tuesdays, they have happy hour as well

We used to go here frequently, but we were last here as a family about a year ago. Hubby had ordered the steak and said it was chewy and tough. It had been his go-to dish here for years. So disappointed, he didn't want to return. So the rest of us decided to give it another try. I was surprised to learn they had moved a few doors down. The newer location is much smaller and lacks the quaintness of the old spot. The focus appears to be on the bar now, including a woman going around to each table trying to get people to order the tequila. Our waitress was nice, but I felt like I was getting the constant upsell for drinks, apps, and dessert. Chips and salsa were provided, but I was surprised to be charged $2 when asking for "a little more salsa" to go with our last few chips. (Menu says charge is for a second "Chips and salsa.") The charge seemed a bit much to me especially since I didn't ask for more chips. I ordered the spinach enchiladas. I didn't think they were worth the price. The green sauce was a bit flavorless and thick, and the rice was not as good as I had remembered. I would've like to see some cheese in the enchiladas as well. Overall, I felt that the food was not nearly as good as it once had been. I left feeling rather disappointed.

Underwhelming experience. Tortilla soup did not come with toppings. Had to ask. The modern jazz is not the right music. The service is lacking. Everthing is extra. One chip and salsa, cheese and lettuce for fajitas...all extra We live in the Cove and walk here. We wish this was better. More authentic, mex music, Try harder. We might come back in 2026 Locals

We love Casa Maya margaritas!! Their Lunch specials are delicious and the service is amazing!!

Great drinks, delicious food, lovely staff! We also had a well behaved 1yo with us and the staff was great and accommodating with her as well. Highly recommend!

It was my first visit to this local Mexican restaurant. We were greeted as we entered and seated immediately. The dining room was dimly lit with pretty lighting. We were served chips and two different salsas, one hot and one mild. They were very good. I ordered a salad and my boyfriend ordered Al Carbon tacos with a side salad. He raved about the side salad but was not familiar with street tacos . I tasted one and thought it was good. My signature chopped salad had avocado, blue cheese / feta blend and grilled chicken. It was delicious. Our server was great and checked on us regularly. We thought the prices were fair and parking was easy in the parking lot. The restaurant's atmosphere was very nice and I am excited to try some other items on the menu.

We've tried a lot of Mexican restaurants in the area and this one is by far the best! The food is always delicious, the drinks are fresh and amazing, and the staff makes you feel welcome. It's our go to spot and it never disappoints!

Food was very good. Great service. Good menu choices. Friendly and helpful staff. Food served in a timely manner.

Gaby was such a great service super attentive , friendly and gives a great recommendation for my lunch. Can wait to come back

Would definitely return to Casa Maya! Just over the bridge in the shopping plaza. Parking is a little tight on a busy weekend so give yourself a few extra minutes. Sat outside on a nice evening. Service was good and there's a gentleman running everything who is truly awesome!! He was making sure everything was handled, helping his servers, inviting people in for a margarita, etc. So friendly and welcoming with an upbeat vibe. Ordered tortilla soup, chicken tostadas, beef birria tacos, margaritas and mocktails. Their chicken tostadas were okay (wouldn't order again), but the beef birria tacos were awesome!! Definitely order those! A cup of chicken tortilla soup is the size of an entree and quite tasty. Of course we received chips/salsa with the meal. The margaritas were excellent and really loved the mocktails!! Oh- they give u cute Chiclet gum packs at the end. Nice touch!

Very nice restaurant atmosphere. Chips and Salsa were probably the best that I have ever had. Warm, crisp and such fresh Salsa. We started the meal with Mexican Street Corn - wonderful! I thought it was going to be too much crema or mayo - nope. Great balance of corn, seasoning, crema and fresh cheese. I am not a huge cheese fan, but I loved the cheese in this dish. For dinner we ordered beef enchilada (Boxito) and I had Chile Rellenos filled with seafood. The beef enchilada was flavorful and the Rellenos seafood was simple with Fish and shrimp. It was full of flavor, lots of sauce and the fish was a high quality fish that tasted like fresh fish - maybe Mahi. My only regret was going there when I wasn't very hungry. I probably would have enjoyed my meal even more and would have enjoyed more of the fresh chips and Salsa.

This restaurant gets busy. We waited for like twenty minutes before getting seated. They had chairs outside to wait. We walked the area instead. They texted us when the table was ready. The inside is long. I sat outside. I got a Guavarita. It was a guava drink that was very good. We ended up getting the queso fundido. We all liked it. It tasted good. The salsa here is very good. It was a Tuesday and the restaurant had a good taco special going. We got tacos. Olivia our waitress was great. She gave us a menu to choose from and how many tacos. They later came in a tray. Those little suckers are filling lol. They tasted good. I liked the tacos here. We all had a great time. The personalized take-home container was nice and very thoughtful. I enjoyed the Chiclets. They reminded me of my youth. I had a good time eating here.

Great Dinner at Casa Maya. Our server Jordan was so great. He was so helpful and polite. We will be back . Oh yeah. Margarita was on point

Very good. They have a pumpkin sauce and it's so yummy. The drinks are great. Service fantastic. I can't believe I just found out about this place. Ty yelpers!!!

So, I had previously reviewed Casa Maya and given them more stars. We recently went, against recommendations from some friends, and we should have listened. The service was terrible. It's the bartender that took forever to get us a sangria and a beer. It's asking for water and it coming at the end of the meal. We are patient and typically not critical but this was bad. The queso fundido was the best thing we ate and the only reason this review isn't a 1. That along with the fact that our waitress did try but she was overwhelmed. Now, let's get to the food. The chips were stale. That's all I'll say there. We had the Mojo pork fajitas, chicken fajitas and the mole rojo enchiladas. This is what we all typically get when we go so we had historical experience to go off of. The food was not great and we all ended up with one heck of a belly ache afterwards. My husband actually ended up getting physically sick. It turned into a Pepto night. We later saw the multiple violations that the restaurant has had as of late and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more coming. What once was great is now not. We won't be going back.

The best! Great happy hour specials! The Casa Maya soup is to die for! Jordan is great!

We have always loved Casa Maya but are thrilled with the new location (just a few doors down) and the updated open floor plan. The food is always delicious and our server Jordan was attentive.

I rarely write reviews, but this place was beyond disappointing. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla, and what I got was a dried-out tortilla with a sad scattering of shrimp--no cheese, no seasoning, absolutely nothing else. It was like someone forgot what a quesadilla is supposed to be. The rest of the food I ordered wasn't any better--completely inedible. Everything tasted either stale, overcooked, or just plain wrong. Honestly, I wouldn't serve this to anyone, let alone charge for it. Save your time and money and eat literally anywhere else.

Stopped in late afternoon for a lite snack and cocktail, wasn't too busy so I sat on the outside patio area which is peaceful. The passion fruit margarita is excellent plus they have many other options for craft cocktails on the menu. Wasn't too hungry so ordered the shrimp quesadillas which was perfect and tasty. Ashley was my server that day and she took great care of me, she was very attentive and had extensive menu knowledge, not to mention she was very personable and had a nice smile to go along with it. Cant wait to go back.

My second time here in two days .. very fresh authentic and delicious.. the service was amazing both days along with a great setting inside .. if you want a great experience and the food to match this is your spot

Casa Maya has been our favorite Mexican restaurant for many years.Tonight was no exception.We arrived only 15 minutes before they closed and were the only customers in the restaurant but we were treated with courtesy and enthusiasm by all the staff.Our waiter Jordan was excellent and accommodated all our needs including modifications to some menu items.Everything was delicious.We shall return!

Great customer service, Emma and Ashley were great. Food was good the ambiance is great, they also have an outdoor sitting area.

Amazing margaritas, amazing food, amazing service. Thanks to our server Jordan. Neighborhood gem.

From the moment we walked in, we felt very welcomed. Jordan, our waiter was very attentive and suggested the brisket which was special for the day. We ordered the brisket nachos and the fish ceviche. They brought out the shrimp ceviche by mistake and fixed it quickly. The beer was cold and the Rita was delicioso! The owner stopped by our table to check on us. This place was really amazing!

Good chicken tacos! Service by Kelly was 5 stars! Cozy lighting Next time I'm going to try Fajitas Sizzling platter of steak, chicken or both! With onions and peppers.

Went to try this restaurant last night on a friends recommendation and was not as impressed as I was hoping to be. We were seated promptly and the waitress came over to start taking our order. We ordered simple food - a street corn for an app, I did mixed fajitas(well done onions and peppers) and my husband got the casa maya burrito with chicken. The chips and salsa came quickly and were the best part of the meal to be honest. Salsa had flavor and chips were fresh My fajitas were delivered first (before the app even) but nothing with it. The onions and peppers were barely cooked and I informed the waitress it was incorrect and she seemed to have an attitude to take it back. I asked about the street corn app and she said "we only have one cook tonight and he is backed up on orders" and then ran off rolling her eyes. Shortly after she went to the front stand and we could see her and the hostess looking at our table as to be talking about us. It was very uncomfortable and I wish I had left then. Took some time for the waitress to check in and offer refills on drinks. My husband ordered a drink (spicy grilled pineapple margarita) which was delivered incorrectly and after the meal The drink came incorrectly and when we asked if it was correct (it didn't even have pineapple on it ) she said yeah it's right and walked away. My husband's burrito was plain as plain could be. It had no sauce, basically just boiled chicken with no seasoning rolled into a tortilla topped with some melted cheese. Rice and beans had no flavor either. Finally the assistant manager gabby came over and was as apologetic as could be. She tried to swap out the burrito for my husband but he was already over it and ate what he could. She tried to offer dessert but we were already frustrated at this point and wanted to leave. She comped the bill completely and asked us to please come back and give them another try and to ask for her specifically. All restaurants have a rough night and unfortunately our first experience was that night.

Our favorite Mexican restaurant. Everything is fresh and tasty. Fresh guac and salsa to start. The octopus is so tender and delicious. We all loved our dinners. I got the Veracruz pescado which was delicious. Our server was Emma and she was excellent. We celebrated my grandson's 5th birthday. All the servers got together and sang to him. It's the perfect spot for families, couples or friends. Great service and food everything we come here.

Pains me to post this, as I wanted to like, but it was awful. Bar none, the worst chicken and steak fajitas we've ever had. Both beef and poultry, tasteless. Zero seasoning. Tiniest sour cream condiment ever, salsa literally bland. I remember when it first opened years ago and I liked. What happened?

Small restaurant but the best street tacos! We live in Mexico half of the year and these tacos are fabulous! The chilaquiles are delicious! Will definitely be back!!

Food was very good , Ashley and Emma did a great job serving us. We will definitely go back there again.

This is a superb Mexican restaurant located off of Federal Highway. The art mural art wall as you come in is splendid. The margaritas and guacamole are definitely not your average Mexican joint Margarita and guacamole. The flavor in any of their meat or bean dishes makes your taste buds dance, yearning for another bite..

Food and service excellent as always. It's nice that you re-did the interior. But I liked the old interior better. Thus, I am giving you 48 hours to return it back to the way it was before.

Good food and even better service. @gaby was on point! Love the remodel too- good ambiance.

Beautiful ambiance, authentic flavors, and top-notch service! Gaby was great. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the vibe made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!

Great food and fantastic service. Gaby was wonderful!!!! Thank you Gaby for your exceptional service.

The best authentic Mexican food in town. We love the variety of margaritas and we can walk home after a few. The staff are so friendly

Mostly Mexican is generally all the same. This stands out. Every dish is very different. Actual house made salsa and chips. The tostadas and ceviche were fantastic. Margaritas were top notch. Service was great. Can't wait to return. If you're looking for Mexican don't miss this.

Omg! If you would like to enjoy authentic Mexican food, head over to Casa Maya! My favorite is anything that has Tulum sauce; however, others in our party enjoyed the octopus and the vegetarian enchiladas. Everything is fresh made and scrumptious! Our waitress had mentioned that they were out of Chardonnay, my favorite wine, so they brought me over a Pinot Grigio. The owner, Emilio came to the table and heard my disappointment and brought a Chardonnay from his private reserve. Thank you so much for making me feel like family! You're the best and we'll see you soon!!!
