★★★★★ 5.0 Steven Spencer · Jul 2025

Customer service and food was amazing. If you ever stop in at Mount Vernon this is a hidden gem. Some of the best Mexican food I have had . I lived in colorado and currently am in North Carolina. Coming here several times visiting my brother out here it was to die for from flavor to seasoning and trying something diffrent each time and wow they truly go above and beyond with there food.

El Maya, I really want to support local business. We absolutely adore mexican food. When El Maya is on it's game it is delicious. When they are not it is horrible. The last 3 times I have ordered. ( Placing order through online). The food has been wrong or not complete. Fajitas with no tortillas, Ranchero beans that was nothing but juice (literally 4 beans swimming in broth), shrimp tacos that had 2 pieces of the wrong shrimp (ordered coconut shrimp and received grilled chipotle shrimp). We are done rolling the dice on if you will get it right.

Food quality was excellent. Beautiful artistic tables and chairs and TV available. We had a big party so they obliged us a long table arrangement last minute which was awesome. Otherwise, service was just acceptable.

I placed an order tonight online. 1x Chicken Fajitas 1x LG Cheese Dip 1x Pollo Con Queso I ordered the chicken fajitas. When placing the order, in the description box I asked for only onions, peppers, rice and beans with flour tortillas. No tomatoes salad or anything that comes on the salad. The cooks did not look at the description box. It came drenched in tomatoes, it tasted more along the lines of an Italian dinner vs Mexican. It came with salad and everything on it. The Pollo Con Queso was a very small portion. Definitely not worth the $13.64 for it. When I went out to my car I decided to check the food. (I didn't realize at that time my fajitas were covered in tomatoes). My order was missing the LG Cheese Dip. I went back in with my messed up order to get another rice and beans with
