" We enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Mayan Cafe. The food was well-prepared, and the ingredients tasted fresh. I had the papadzules, and though they were tasty, I would have preferred a bit more sauce for dipping. The service was decent; nothing too extraordinary, but it met our needs. I’d love to return and try something new. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Mayan Cafe is a treat! The food is exceptional, especially the duck. Each bite was packed with flavor. The atmosphere was casual, yet charming, perfect for a laid-back evening with friends. I wish I had the chance to try their desserts, which I hear are amazing. I would return without hesitation. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Mayan Cafe left me with mixed feelings. On one hand, the food—especially the chocolate on chocolate dessert—was fantastic and full of fresh flavors. However, the service could have been better; our server seemed a bit overwhelmed on a busy night, which led to some delays. Overall, it was a good experience, but I think some attention to service could elevate it further. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently celebrated my birthday at Mayan Cafe, and it was fantastic! From the moment we walked in, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. The Cochinita Pibil was a highlight; the flavors were rich and satisfying. The drinks were equally noteworthy—I particularly enjoyed the Spicy Mango Margarita. The only downside was the noise level on a busy night, but that didn't ruin our experience. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a nice lunch with colleagues at Mayan Cafe, and everything was quite impressive! The cocktails were well-mixed and refreshing. My grilled salmon was cooked just right, and the mole sauce was delightful. The ambiance was very welcoming, though it got a bit noisy as it filled up. Overall, I would gladly return for the quality of food and service. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried the Mayan Cafe for the first time and was not disappointed! The empanadas were lovely—crispy on the outside and filled with flavorful goodness. I also had the Duck with fried plantains, which was cooked perfectly. The service was timely, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. This place really captures the essence of authentic Mayan cuisine. I'd be eager to visit again for that chocolate flan dessert! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Mayan Cafe felt like a mini vacation. The flavors in the dishes were authentic and vibrant, and the atmosphere was perfect for a night out. Our server was knowledgeable and provided great recommendations on cocktails, which added to the experience. I can’t wait to come back and try their desserts next time! " (*Curated Review*)
