Tacos Maya serves authentic Mexican street-style tacos made with fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and a touch of tradition — bringing the vibrant taste of Mexico to every bite.
Overall, TACOS MAYA is described as vibrant and authentic with a wide range of tasty tacos such as birria, rib eye, al pastor and cochinita, plus standout sides like guacamole and churros; many diners praise fresh ingredients, generous portions, approachable prices and a flavorful, well balanced menu, with halal options and vegetarian friendly choices noted; the horchata and dulce de leche churros are frequent must tries, and the atmosphere is often described as welcoming, lively and family friendly with friendly staff and fast service; a few reviews mention hiccups like occasional order mix ups, language quirks and a chilly dining area and a self service setup, but the overall sentiment remains highly positive and repetitive recommendations emphasize TACOS MAYA as one of the best taco spots in the city and a place to return to.
Lorsque j'y suis allé, j'ai essayé le rib-eye & le birria & c'était très bon. Personnellement, le rib-eye était correct, mais pas surprenant alors que le birria était juste wow. J'aimerais souligner le fait que les tacos au boeuf & poulet sont halal!! Ce qui est une bonne chose selon moi, surtout pour ceux qui veulent manger des tacos plus traditionnel à Montréal. Pour ce qui est du service, le personnel est accueillant & sympathique. Nous avons été servi rapidement aussi. L'ambiance est correcte, un peu de musique, pas beaucoup de monde au moment où j'y étais. Le fait d'être juste en face de la station Mont-Royal est un plus pour moi, car c'est facile d'accès.
Pour finir je tiens à dire que l'option tacos est satisfaisante,mais ne m'a pas remplis. Je dirais que c'est une bonne collation si on passe par là, mais pas un repas pour tenir la journée ou la soirée (à moins de prendre des extras évidemment). Pour 3 tacos de chaque (6 au total), ça nous a coûté environ 35$, ce que j'ai trouvé un peu cher pour la quantité offerte.
Tout de même, bonne expérience que je recommande à tout le monde & pour ma part, j'y retournerai certainement bientôt.

This place gave me the worst food poisoning I've ever had in my entire damned life. I'm literally in the hospital right now. I know it was this place as it is the only thing I ate separately than my partner. Still sick bruh.

So good!! The food was super fresh & delicious. I had birria tacos & they were amazing, I could literally rave about them. The guacamole was fresh & the chips tasted homemade. The churros were really good too.
Service was great, everyone was nice, especially a light brown haired guy who was super sweet.
Definitely coming back!
I don't know about the tacos as I've never tried one, but I know I have a new addiction & its these guy's churros!
On the other hand, my friend ordered a burrito & some parts of it were cold as if they were frozen & not properly reheated so beware of that.
Way too expensive for what you get. La quantité de viande dans les tacos est vraiment décevante. La viande était froide & sèche. De plus, le service laissait à désirer. Quand nous avons demandé s'il était possible de nettoyer les tables parce qu'elles étaient sales, on m'a indiqué où était le nettoyant avec la guénille. Nous avons donc nettoyer les tables nous-mêmes. Je ne recommande pas. Il y a meilleure qualité pour le même prix ailleurs.
Very overpriced for the portions & the quality. Poor service. Tables were dirty & when we notified them, they only pointed at the cleaning products!
You have much better options for the same price!

The food was fantastic. The meat was tender & full of flavor, but the real standout was the crusty tacos. They had this perfect crispy texture & super satisfying without being greasy. The cheese added richness without overpowering anything.
I tried the grilled chicken, al pastor, & cochinita. All three were excellent, but the cochinita easily stole the show. Each taco had a delicious, authentic?tasting sauce that tied everything together. They felt unique, memorable, & genuinely well crafted. Will go back & get ribeye
