It's a food truck stand with a few picnic tables in front and a full bathroom to the side. When I arrived around 10pm, besides the group leaving, my party was the only one there. There's also another food truck serving Mexican food in that same area. I ordered the carne asada burrito and it was so gooood! The meat had so much flavor and wasn't chewy. There isn't any rice in the burrito which I'm not used to, but given the plentiful meat portions, I was still very full. The salsa in the container was also delicious, even asked for extra. It's spicy though (gave me acid reflux haha). Highly recommend going to Maria's if you're craving Mexican food!! There are times where I want to drive back three hours just for that burrito again

Same interior, same bar, same TVs, new food options. The chips and salsa were particularly winning, homemade and so fresh and delicious!! The chips were thick and crunchy without being greasy, and the salsa was a verde variety with avocado floaters and lots of big cilantro chunks. Absolutely fabulous! I had the rellenos, which were served dry, strangely. And this is why I said Mexican-New Mexican... no chile sauce?? They were nevertheless quite up to standard. Companions had a burrito each and shared the chicken tacos, which come four to a plate for the reasonable price of $11. They were "legit," apparently. Two soft drinks added to the meal, and our bill was $37 and change after the 15% UNM discount. That's a pretty reasonable ticket for three, these days. It's an order at the counter kinda place, but the server does keep your chips and sodas full. The menu isn't large but includes variety enough. The place is still a secret, so it's not too busy yet. Go on in and make 'em a hit!

I had the 24 Tap BLT, and my wife had the Cobb salad with fried chicken. She enjoyed the salad, and said the fried chicken was quite good. The BLT was mostly bacon, with a leaf of lettuce and a thin slice of tomato; much as I enjoyed the bacon (chewy, not excessively crispy), I also appreciate the contrast with meaty tomato and crisp lettuce, so I found this BLT okay but not great. YMMV. I had onion rings with the BLT, and they were pretty good. Overall a positive experience, and a decent venue for lunch, but room for improvement.
