Tequila Lime Shrimp
Michelle Q.

Had a gran ol time here. The drinks are amazing and the food is delicious. I will say that if you don't like your food being too "wet" don't get the shrimp lime. It's delicious but the sauce was too heavy. The wings are delicious. Enjoy the meal!

Baja Street Corn on the Cob, Ohana Quesadillas, Camaron Quesadillas
Joyce K.

On our journey to try all the Mexican restaurants on the island, we visited Ho'brah on a Saturday afternoon. It was not busy at all so we were quickly seated at a table. We ordered the baja street corn, camaron quesadillas, and ohana quesadillas from their expansive menu. Our waiter informed us that there was another street corn option in a bowl, but we opted for the corn on the cob option as it was less expensive. However, we regretted our decision as the bowl would definitely have been easier to eat. Everything was presented nicely and my ohana quesadillas were pretty good, although I wish I had gotten it without bacon and the brisket as those components became overwhelming midway through the meal. Overall, Ho'brah is a solid Mexican spot on the island, but nothing was mindblowing about the restaurant.

Buffalo chicken tacos

I've been here several times over the years but something is different, not sure if they recently went under new management, changed cooks, but the food and menu has been elevated. Even the chips and guac is hitting different. Chips are so fresh, warm, tasty, guac is seasoned well. I'm so here for this! I recommend the new Buffalo chicken taco, dirty bird taco, brisket taco, quesadilla birria, tostones with all the fixings. I basically recommend for lunch/tapas. Space is clean, kid friendly. Check it out.

I came to this restaurant because it was recommended to me. My daughter and I ordered a burrito and my other daughter ordered a kids taco. We all liked the food as it was presented nicely and had good flavor. The 2 stars is for the poor service. We ordered Salsa, chips and guacamole to start with. When that was finished, my daughter asked for more guacamole to have with her burrito. The waitress brought out a whole new bowl of chips, salsa and guacamole, not saying that we would be charged extra. When the bill came, we were charged for 2 starters. She said the guacamole is $12 each for a small bowl because of the high price for avocados. I've been to many restaurants and the most I've paid for a side of guacamole is about $6. The drinks ( iced tea) were not free for refills and we were charged each time a new one was brought. Again, the waitress said nothing.

Left corner : Thunderbird Taco Shrimp Empanadas  Classic Cali Fish Taco
Maheen O.

Staten Island Staple We came around 7:30 on Sunday evening and got seated outside right away. Really liked the chill ambiance of this place. I brought Maheen to this Staten Island staple since she was craving tacos. Both of us really liked the ambiance and sat outside since the weather was great. Definitely recommend bringing a date or grabbing a drink with friends here. Even though we had a full spread you can definitely get away ordering drinks and apps. Also, a very friendly server! Moderately priced tacos, but you get your bang for your buck! Since the tacos are so elaborate, it's good to eat them in house. Shrimp empanada - Crunchy shell, deep fried paired well with the savory filling. Don't skip using the dipping sauce it comes with. We both loved this one Thunderbird - well seasoned chicken with a zesty lime flavor, also this is a heavy packed taco some might need to use both hands to eat this. Classic cali fish taco- deep fried mini fish filet with a nice chipotle mayo drizzle and slaw inside the taco Captain Jack - At this point we had over ordered, Pickled Onions added a nice vinegary flavor to the fried shrimp. Acidity from the onions balances the oil of a fried shrimp.

Decent pricing, food was good, drinks were ok. Street parking, not easy to find and a wait is typical.

Gave them another chance for lunch. Coming when not crowded helps. Food is very good. Be warned, the drinks, though tempting are pricy.

An Unforgettable Quesabirria Experience at Maya's Cafe Mexican Cuisine!…read more Finding truly exceptional Mexican food can sometimes feel like a quest, but my visit to Maya's Cafe Mexican Cuisine delivered in a big way, specifically with their phenomenal Quesabirria. From the moment it arrived, I had a feeling it would be special, and I was not disappointed. The quesabirria itself was a masterpiece of flavor and texture. It was immediately clear that freshness was a priority here. The tortilla was perfectly crisped, providing a satisfying base for the generous filling inside. But the real star was the birria steak - it was incredibly tender, bursting with juice, and packed with a deep, savory taste that spoke of careful preparation and quality ingredients. Each bite was simply delicious. What truly elevated the dish, however, were the thoughtful details. The fresh cilantro wasn't just sprinkled on; it added a vibrant, aromatic quality and a necessary burst of freshness that cut through the richness of the meat and cheese beautifully, enhancing the overall taste profile significantly. And then there was the consumé. Oh, that consumé! Calling it 'out of this world' is almost an understatement. It was served steaming hot, a rich, dark broth brimming with complex flavors. It was savory, comforting, and utterly addictive. Seriously, it was so incredibly delicious and satisfying on its own that I could have happily just sipped it straight from the cup. Dipping the flavorful quesabirria into that liquid gold created a perfect harmony - a truly memorable culinary moment. It's been a little while since I had the chance to visit Maya's Cafe, but the memory of that meal has genuinely stayed with me. I find myself actively craving that specific combination of flavors and textures again. While I haven't managed to get back just yet, I am truly looking forward to my next visit, and you can bet I'll be ordering the quesabirria again. If you appreciate authentic Mexican cuisine made with care, or if you're on the hunt for truly outstanding quesabirria, I wholeheartedly recommend making a trip to Maya's Cafe Mexican Cuisine. It was a fantastic experience, driven by that incredibly tasty and well-executed dish. You won't regret it!

Taco shells were fresh corn Shells with I think grilled melted cheese. The chicken and beef in the tacos were seasoned well with fresh cilantro and lime wedges squeeze on it. Dipping the tacos in the birrea gravy was heaven! The flan was excellent, not overly sweet and delicious. And the fresh guacamole was also excellent with homemade chips, too. I'm so happy Westerleigh has a great Mexican restaurant nearby!

This spot came highly recommended by a friend so I decided to give it a try since I was in the area…read more. I love anything steak so i ordered steak tacos and an order of chicken nachos. Everything was made fresh and had great flavors . The serving size is perfect if you want to share or not it's not to much . The nachos have Mexican street corn on them my first time having nachos like this but it was delicious. Guacamole was fresh and very delicious. The location is definitely a hidden gem it's very clean and cozy BUT ITS VERY COLD I would have loved to stay and eat but it was just as cold inside as it was outside . The staff is very friendly and they literally will make anything any way you want. Price point is not expensive it's decently priced for the servings you get.

This place use to be my favorite. It has gotten worse every time! I didn't mind it being pricey and…read moreI had to go pick it up because we are in the borderline of where they're willing to deliver. But the attitude and the quality is just not what it use to be. From forgetting part of my order, charging me, and then just a shrug on the shoulder, saying they don't know what happened, denying they made any mistake. Nonetheless, today was the last time we're ordering from them. Thought it would be nice to order tacos first cinco de mayo. This is the crap I got. No topping no condiments no sauce cold dry cardboard like tortillas/meat. So much for happy tacos.

I just left this place and i don't usually write reviews , now sitting in my car out front…read more First off, the drinks are completely juiced up honestly feels like straight lemon juice with barely any alcohol. For the prices they're charging, that's unacceptable. It's like they're trying to stretch every drop instead of giving you what you paid for. On top of that, the food menu has clearly changed and not for the better. The options are limited now, and some of the best items that used to make this place worth coming to are just gone. What's left is underwhelming and doesn't match the quality they used to have. And now they don't even have happy hour on Fridays anymore? That was one of the main reasons people came through at the end of the week. Taking that away just makes it even less worth it. I even gave them a second chance, trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but that just made it worse. The food left me with an upset stomach and running to the bathroom after, which is the last thing you expect when you're going out to eat. It's disappointing because this used to be a solid spot, but now it feels like they're cutting corners across the board. Definitely not the same Sofia's anymore. I won't be back.
