I grew up in a targeted immigration zone which featured a ton of Jalisco region immigrants, so naturally we ended up with a bevy of Mexican restaurants and taco trucks. This place might not quite measure up to the best of the best from that...lineup, but for my money it's easily the best Mexican restaurant in Cebu. The ambience is quiet and comfortably dark, so it's a fantastic place for dates and just as good for the family. The food is a little on the expensive side but of consistently high quality.More

Ambience and the liquor options are divine. Easily one of my favorite spots in Cebu City. Sadly, they haven't opened back yet ever since COVID-19 pandemic.

Being Vegetarian, they had the best Tacos we tried as starters. The Vegetarian main was equally delicious - and not to forget Mexican! The ambience was very good and definitely would recommend the place if you are looking for a chilled out place to hang...with friends or family!More

Absolutely love this place. I come through cebu every half year and always come here. The menu is very easy to understand and the food is delicious. Cocktails are superb. Especially recommend the 2-for-1 tacos on Tuesdays and get beef brisket! Heads up, nachos are...phenomenonal but it's a BIG portion, like three people can share it for starter.More

Coming from Guatemala I didn’t have my expectations too high for authentic Mexican cuisine. However Maya excels in service, great menu and house beers. More tending to Tex-Mex cuisine they make the best with or without seasonal ingredients (like avocado). We order nachos and they...are crispy home made with fresh toppings and extra salsas they bring to table. Recommended! We also got asada burrito Cali style and it was solid. Paired with a Luchador house beer...excelent! The local is modern, sophisticated and the music Latino Buena vista style. Manager and waiter staff super friendly and attentive. You can tell they were well trained and they are motivated! Keep it up guys and thx for great eve!More

Its a great place to go with a date and perhaps a group of friends. Its very nice and the service was excellent. However I wasn't sold on the food and cocktails, which is its main selling point. So I wouldn't go out of my...way to go again, but I wouldn't say its really Mexican food either. More tex-mex influenced with local flavours, so the name of the restaurant is quite misleading.More

Hi Leizel, sorry I totally missed you question. If this is related to my visit at Maya, I really don't understand the question. If you want to know about coaching, I am not allowed to answer that here. Thank you!
