    Carne asada mulita
    Alicia D.

    I love the new decor and the new menu. If you haven't tried Maiz you been missing out. They have so many food options that are delicious. The service is top notch the employees are very friendly and welcoming. The food portions are huge and the prices are affordable! I recommend the carne asada chilaquiles the potatoes it comes with is my favorite!

    Surf & Turf Bowl & Carne Asada Fries

    Service was great. The ladies were very attentive and checked on us multiple times making sure we were doing good. The food was really good. I had the Surf & Turf Bowl w/ a habanero sauce that was amazing. My daughter ordered Carne Asada fries which were delicious and a huge portion for the price it was definitely worth it. The location has a few TVs where you can watch the soccer games going on right now for the World Cup. Their menu had a variety of different options from Mexican to American food. The Ambiance was chill and quiet at the time I went in which was during lunch time. I also loved that they had a drive thru in case you didn't want to dine in.

    Chilaquiles

    Was here with my family today& we loved it ... everything was so delicious and service was great!

    Lunch menu

    Maiz Cafe is new to Rialto and honestly it deserves all the love. We stumbled in on a Sunday morning and left completely satisfied. We ordered the chilaquiles with ribeye steak, the French toast, and the pancake combo. Everything was cooked to order and tasted incredibly fresh. That ribeye on the chilaquiles? Generous, juicy, and packed with flavor. My daughters enjoyed their pancakes and bacon. It a little busy and the staff was clearly hustling, but our waiter stayed attentive and you could genuinely feel that they care about the people sitting at their tables. That kind of energy is hard to fake. Just heads up they only have a single restroom outside, but it was spotless, well stocked and recently remodeled. No complaints. Maiz feels like a neighborhood spot still finding its footing but already doing a lot of things right.

    Chile Verde with steak and the California Scrambler

    The food was amazing, well seasoned, I had the California scrambler and my friend got the chile verde plate with steak. Very clean environment and friendly staff.

    I've been here before it's been a while, but the food was not that good. I mean I love the atmosphere and they have good customer service but whoever is the cook I'm sorry but they don't know what they're doing. Rice and beans or tasteless and they have stale chips like I said before second time here I don't think I'm coming back for a third that's just my opinion

    Fish taco

    This place does live up to the height this is an amazing place with an amazing taste will be coming back with the family and more I recommend recommended 100%

    Chile Verde plate

    Definitely try this place out. I been here twice and both times my food was packed with flavor. Don't sleep on this one.

    Chile Relleno plate

    Finally found the cure for my chile relleno craving! This place is a must-visit. The food is incredible (honestly one of the best rellenos I've ever had at a restaurant) and the service is great. They actually serve you at the table. Super chill vibes all around. 10/10 would recommend!

    Family owned and operated Mexican restaurant that specializes and Yucatecan cuisine (the sign says…read moreMayan food I'm naively assuming it's the same or similar). This place is located in strip mall out in Rialto. As soon as I walked in, I can tell this place was a chill place to eat with very friendly people serving you. I was really excited to sit down and order. I ended up getting the #9 (or #5? It's been a while and they're similar). Either way, this order gives you a good sample of a lot what they have to offer. If the #9, it comes with a panucho, a salbute, a polcan, an empanada de carne, a taco de cochinita de pibil, and a taco relleno. The amazing flavors and textures. I was like a kid in a candy store with this meal. Everything was delicious all washed down with the Modelo. It's a little far for me, but definitely would love to stop by again if I'm in the area or driving through.

    Long review but I think it's important to say what needs to be said:…read more THE SHORT VERSION; First time visiting this place since reviews were generally good and it's truly something special to see a restaurant specializing in Yucatecan food only. The food was different than your standard Mexican offering and overall very good, good seasoning and portions. Pricing was not out of what would be expected for quality Mexican food. The service, unfortunately, was half baked, which is really sad for me to see as a staunch supporter of local, immigrant owned businesses and being a child of immigrants myself and knowing how much hard work is involved in maintaining a business alive. THE LONGER VERSION; It was apparent that the waitress that served us during our visit could not only benefit from more training in offering (and caring to offer) a better customer service experience / better table side communication but also needs to make the connection about how her actions affect the livelihood of a business that others have undoubtedly worked very hard for. But, I guess this assumes she wants to genuinely work there. To begin with, my party was greeted by a poorly delivered and off putting joke about making sure she served us lots of alcohol; delivered in a way that in Spanish is known as "ser llevado" or overly familiar. Odd to make jokes like that when you just met someone visiting your business for the first time, but we passed it off as just a poor attempt to connect. Fine, we moved on. The music was extremely loud. When we asked if it could be lowered somewhat, she lowered the volume from an 11 to a 2, which then made the ask not only awkward but almost passive aggressive. (I only say this because once we left, we heard the volume quickly go back to 11, as if they were just waiting for us to leave to crank the volume back up again). The waitress did explain the dishes well, letting us know what the unique ones were. However, in the middle of our conversation a guy walked through the door and it was obvious that there's a connection between them because she then got more impatient explaining things to us as said guy moved to sit at a table towards the back of the restaurant. We completed our order, she served us and then kind of disappeared to wait on the other table, we thought. When she did happen to pass by our table again, I politely asked for additional plates and silverware, when she had a chance, to which she replied that I could pick them up myself from near the register area. Her response seemed out place since we were dining in and we were under the impression that she was our waitress, so I asked her again for silverware, not plastic utensils. Again, she told me that I could pick up plastic utensils myself from the register, pointing, "see they're right there" and walked away to the kitchen. We were still processing the exchange, a bit in disbelief, when she then appeared with requested silverware and additional plates but visibly annoyed and in some kind of hurry. It was really hard to focus on enjoying our meal after that. The waitress then made her way to the back table to sit next to, one could now only presume was her boyfriend, and we never saw her again. She never checked on us, asked if we needed anything, etc. Her priority was staying seated and chatting it up with that guy. Who did come to check on us was the owner, who seems to have cooked the meals and walked out of the kitchen to speak with us. He asked if we had enjoyed the food, if it was our first time there, talked about how he sourced his ingredients, shared some of the restaurant's history. Then he walked away to continue working. Unfortunately, we were forced to engage again with the waitress (who remained seated at the back table) and had to ask her across the restaurant where we should pay. Before she answered from her chair (didn't even get up to speak with us and was getting ready to yell back at us from her seat) the owner appeared at the register and told us we could pay with him. Unfortunately, the whole service experience did negatively color our desire to return to this place again. Giving more like 3.5 stars because the food was good but not enough to overlook the unpleasant service.

    I stopped by after a friend sent me a viral video showing their chili relleno burrito with carne…read moreasada, and it immediately caught my attention. When I arrived, I was a little confused about where to order since there's a window outside and also a small seating area inside where you can order as well. It wasn't a big deal, just a little unclear at first. I'll admit, my first reaction was to question the price. At $23, the burrito definitely isn't cheap. But once I got home and opened it up, I quickly understood why. This thing is massive, seriously like the size of a newborn baby! The burrito is absolutely loaded with all the goodness you'd expect: carne asada, chili relleno, and rice. Definitely a burrito you could easily share. My only real complaint is that they only gave me two small containers of hot sauce, which didn't feel like enough considering the size of the burrito and that it also comes with chips. Other than that, the food was delicious and the portion size is no joke. If you're a fan of big, flavorful burritos, this is definitely a must-try spot!

    Took one hour to get our food. It took that long for everyone else that was there too. I was…read morehopeful the enchiladas were similar to my mom's that passed away 9 yrs ago and was from Michoacán but once they added the hot salsa juice on top of the cabbage it made them more like crunchy quesadillas that got soggy, not at all an enchilada but decent flavor. The chicken that came with it was indeed bomb. Menu doesn't come with prices and the dishes are overpriced considering the food was not what expected. One enchilada plate, wet burrito, one kids plate , one beer and one orchata was $75, we added tip to that. My husband said his wet burrito was okay but since it was just okay and it was $25 not worth getting since it's just a burrito. They give you salsa ins containers smaller than the ranch containers to go and it makes it hard to eat chips and salsa off of them. The salsas for the chips are more for tacos than to dip in. Some ones else's fish tacos looked good and I thought I'd give them a try next time since this place is in my hometown but all in all I don't plan to come back in the near future because of how long it took to get our food at the end. I was worn out from waiting for my food with my restless toddler. ***I recommend not adding that steaming hot sauces to the enchiladas that turn them to shredded quesadillas and faster service.
