We usually make a reservation for Mexican food at one of the restaurants in EPCOT but decided to try this instead. Big mistake. We dined here on 10/2. Overpriced for just so-so food. We get better at our local restaurant. The decor is very nice and the gentlemen playing the guitar was excellent. We enjoyed listening to him while we dined. Our server was very pushy and very "curt" with answering questions. The portions were ok. My quesadilla was more like 4 chicken tacos. Not what you expect. $26 for it was ridiculous even at Disney prices. It came with rice and refried beans. The beans were in a small cup they use to put ketchup in. They were basically puréed. If you can't eat in EPCOT, I suggest going off property. Even Chili's is better than this.

We ate here on our arrival night because we couldn't get reservations for Ohana and we were starving. I thought you couldn't go wrong with Mexican as it's probably my favorite food type but sadly I was wrong. There was no flavor to anything we ordered and we both were pretty disappointed. Your local Mexican joint is going to be a third of the price and blow this place out of the water! Sad because they have the potential to be a great restaurant because everyone loves Mexican food! It's a beautiful resort, well worth visiting but the food choices have left a lot to be desired. Hoping that will be different with the new options and beautiful new building. Would like to see this resort become a must visit like the Poly or GF in the future.
Pros:
Easy to get an ADR. Somewhat quiet.Cons:
The most average Mexican food you'll ever pay way too much for.Reviewed by wstblanc12 Review Date: 09/28/2017

We loved the atmosphere, our waiter and host.
However, fam was disappointed with no chips and salsa, tacos, burritos or rellano pepers on the menu. The fajitas were very good but tiny, tiny tortillas. Guac was excellent. It's good but many will be disappointed with selections. We used dining plan and there were three signature items we could not order. Personally I would eat there again but my taco bell aficionados are out!
Pros:
Beautiful and great serverCons:

The food was not bad. It just wasn't what it was last time we went. The menu changed. I was so looking forward to a steak with a fried plantain on top, which I had never tried before I had it at Coronado. Not there anymore. And...I expect home made tortillas at a table service restaurant. Not here. The side of corn was to die for. The steaks were good. The chicken in the soft tacos was good. But pretty much, not much to boast about. I want the old menu back. Desserts were fine. Waiter was good. Do I recommend this place if you need an afternoon at the resort and don't want to run back to the parks, yes. Will I run from the parks to eat here...no.
Pros:
convenience within CoronadoCons:

We eat a Maya Grill almost every trip, even when staying at other resorts. It’s never very busy and the food is excellent. My husband loves the coconut flan and the horchata margarita is a must for me.

Not the right choice for a special meal outReviewed by Cstauffer1 Review Date: 11/01/2015

Enjoyed a delicious dinner at the maya grill. I ordered the new York steak which had a tasty rub on it, not sure what was in it, but the steak was cooked perfectly to my liking, and the steak came with corn and mashed potatoes, and this creamy sauce that all came together when combined into one bite. It was delicious. Would have liked to try the seafood meal but husband is allergic to shellfish and the seafood meal serves 2 people. Not a big menu to choose from but all the food was tasty and the service was quick and efficient.

Just a fantastic meal, and one that was a completely unexpected HIDDEN GEM.
My wife and I had the FAJITAS for two, with chicken, steak and shrimp. Just fantastic, more food than we could take care of ourselves. Kids enjoyed their meals also.
Waiter SAL was excellent, in helping us decide, in knowing the menu, and in taking time to get to know us that evening. No, the restaurant was not packed on AUGUST 14, 2013 but all the better for us.
Dessert was FRIED ICE CREAM, the only place I know on property to get it. Awesome.
Just totally impressed with this meal. I would make a special trip to CSR to eat here, that good.
Pros:
Menu, authentic dishes, service, chips salsaCons:

This is a rare find. Our waiter greeted us and brought chips and salsa. Delish! I had the Chicken Enchiladas and Quacamole. It was all sooo good. The waiter noticed my Birthday pin and was so sweet to bring me a brownie dessert. Anything I needed he always smiled and graciously brought it to me. Love this place! It is off the beaten path, but I recommend anyone who likes Mexican food give it a try.

40 yrs of visiting Disney World,we have dined almost everywhere Kona is always #1. It used to be that Maya grill was our favorite, then through the yrs there were too many changes including bad service and the cold food menu.
Until 3 weeks ago our friend who went there said you have to try the Maya again, so we did WOW what a change. Thank you Randel the mgr and thank you Vivianna our server. Randel visited each table, the menu changed back to great, Vivianna was just wonderful.
The food was tasty and with great flavors back up in our top 5.Going back in Jan.for our biannual tour.We will be back.
By the way, through the years we learned Disney web will say its booked, but if we showed up at the resturant, we got right in at the Maya grill.
