" I’ve been to Maiz a couple of times and absolutely love their practices. The management goes out of their way to ensure guests have a great experience. They are always suggesting new things to try. The margaritas are spot-on and perfect for hot days, and it’s nice to see a place that genuinely cares about its customers in the midst of NYC’s fast-paced restaurant scene. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Maiz serves some of the best Mexican food I've ever tasted! I visited with my family and we ordered several dishes to share. The carne asada was perfectly cooked, and the salsas were bursting with flavor. The service was quick, and our server was attentive without being intrusive. The vibrant decor also added to the experience. I can’t wait to return to try more items on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Maiz truly stands out among the myriad of restaurants around the Port Authority. The food is so fresh, and you can taste the quality in every bite. I opted for the shrimp fajitas, and they were cooked perfectly with a mix of spices. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I plan on bringing my family next time; they will love it too! " (*Curated Review*)

" Maiz has become my go-to for Mexican food! The carne asada burrito is loaded with meat and so filling. The quality of ingredients they use is astonishing and it seems they prepare everything fresh. I appreciate the cozy vibe and the fact that they have outdoor seating. It’s a must-try for anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had lunch at Maiz and ambiance was perfect for a casual meal—bright and lively. The staff greeted us warmly, and the food was quick to arrive. I had the vegetarian quesadilla which was decent, though I wish there were more cheese. The price felt fair for the portion size, and I may come again to explore the rest of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had such a wonderful meal! The shrimp tacos were divine and the margaritas were perfectly mixed. While the vibe was casual, it felt warm and welcoming. I can’t believe how generous the portions were! I had enough to take some home! Can’t wait to come back for more deliciousness! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high expectations from all the reviews! The food was good, but it did not quite live up to the hype. I found the flavors a bit muted and the prices were on the high side for what it is. The service was friendly and fast, so that was a plus. Probably wouldn’t rush back, but I might give them another chance. " (*Curated Review*)
