Vamos a La Maya
Mexican comfort intertwines with the regions soul—Tulum's zest and Cancun's allure. This isn't your typical Mexican cuisine; it's a vibrant, rustic canvas bursting with authentic flavors, a culinary revelation that redefines tradition with every bite.

7 oz Filet mignon was delicious- ordered cooked "Medium" and it was perfect! Martinis were so yummy; my favorite sides were mushrooms; mac & cheese; and cream spinach 😋 Service was exceptional and we had a large party of 10 Guests. The only food that I ordered that I was disappointed with was my Caesar salad because it was soggy. We will definitely return!
