    Very clean. Good music Walked in no one was there. Ordered 2 tacos. One asada and one al pastor. Got a drink. Horchata is a big no! Tasted like sugar water. 0/10 I dumped and got Jamaica. Tasted a lot better. But not freshly made. Maybe a mix 6/10 The have area with different salsas and I tried several and tasted good. 10/10 Asada taco was good! Meat was good. 7/10. I don't like when they include fat part of the meat. Al pastor was ok. I felt like it needed flavor. Pineapple on top was good. 5/10 Corn Tortillas are freshly made. 10/10 I didn't give 4/5 starts because I felt like service and few other things lacked. I want to come back and try it again

    I'm about to find out! Always on the hunt for new and exciting spot to get my grub on. Well here we are at Maize... it's Al Pastor happy hour from 3-6, AYCE! The kitchen is a little behind schedule so no Carnitas today. It will be properly braised in 50 minutes. "Next time" I replied. I got the following tacos. 1 shrimp taco 1 Mahi Mahi/ fish taco 1 Al Pastor taco 1 Carne Asada taco First bite shrimp taco. Wow! So fresh and full of flavors and good textures. On a double blue corn tortilla. Lots of artistic creativity blended with a refined sense of culinary prowess. The best tacos I've ever had. 1 or 2 would do but since I wanted to review this spot I got 4. They have a lobster taco for $6 and I bet you it's incredible. Next was the meaty and moist Mahi Mahi Pescado taco. Again, wow! Big bite filled with fresh fish, cabbage and so clean. Served on a shell that looks like that chain's Gordo shell but this was more refined and looks rich. Loved this one too. Getting full but Yelp duty calls. This 3rd one was Al Pastor. Thinly sliced, well seasoned meat with a load of great flavors from the fresh pico and chunks of pineapple. The thick corn tortilla is meaty yet has a delicate delicious bite but hearty enough to hold all that incredible stuff. Big bites, big flavor. Love this one too. Oh my belly is so full. Carne asada is my last taco to review. I wanted more Jamaica to drink. I was expecting to pay for the refill but refills are free. While up there I asked about the unique thick corn tortillas whether they were made fresh in the kitchen. Yes they are. This is my new taco spot. It's like these talented moms decided to open a restaurant together and hit a home run. Okay, time for the last taco. Can you tell I'm stalling? lol Oh wow! Fire grilled beef. Tender USDA angus beef. The thick corn tortilla with a big dollop of guacamole on top. Very tasty. The Jamaica can be too sweet at other places but here it's perfectly sweet and refreshing... with free refills! The Salsa bar is on point. They have taste bud melting habanero (warning clearly displayed) delineating down to a mild green tomatillo salsa that would be great on the fish tacos. I ended up not using any of the salsas because the tacos stood out on their own. I just finished 4 of the best tacos I'd ever had. Thank you for opening and sharing your talents for us all! While dining a young family with dad, mom and three young girls ordered and stayed to eat. Another couple came is and dining in too. This is a spot for friends and families. Support your local small businesses. This is a great one.

    Chicken Burrito

    First time trying Maize and I was thoroughly impressed. I just got a normal Chicken Burrito with the Chipotle sauce it and it tasty, especially with the Chipotle sauce, and very filling. Depending on how much you eat you might be able to share a single burrito for two. We got the food to so can't speak much on the ambiance of Maize but the employees we did interact with were all very kind and pleasant to work with.

    They were out of their "Best in Utah" carne Asado, but the chicken taco was amazing. Nothing beats a hand-made tortilla. Next level. I wanted a little more flavor on the El pastor, but it was still prepared well.

    Pastor Taco

    Yummy food, but poor service. The restaurant is cute though!! Not my favorite street tacos, but still good.

    Pastor Taco

    Wanted to love this more than I did... Pros: - Super friendly cashier - Cute atmosphere - Decent prices - HOMEMADE CORN TORTILLAS! Loved them - Solid salsas Cons: - Al Pastor was lacking flavor. I could tell it was well cooked and prepared but couldn't taste any spices. - Quesabirria was okay. Normally the consome and meat that I've had other places is extremely rich and flavorful. This was more salty than flavorful.

    Chips and Salsa

    This is a great little taco place! The tacos are reasonably priced and filling. The corn tortillas are homemade and very unique. I had a steak taco and a fish taco. The steak taco was delicious. The fish taco was pretty good. Darren had the Quesobirria taco. The birria was fantastic. They are a Coke shop. Yay! We also had their chips and guacamole. Very good Guacamole! The service was super friendly. Give it a try!

    Maize Tacos was amazing. The corn tortillas where so good they are the best I've had. I loved the thickness and how soft they where. We ordered 3 Carne Asada and 2 Carnitas tacos. But they ended up giving us 5 Carnitas tacos which cost less then Carne Asada. That was frustrating but the Carnitas tacos where so good we enjoyed what we ended up with. They also had a great selection of toppings, I loved their mild red sauce.

    Grabbing some delicious tacos!

    This place has amazing tacos! So nice to have this right in Draper and not have to travel downtown! I highly recommend the pastor or shrimp tacos! If I have one complaint, it's that the place is very noisy inside, but it has an open ceiling and often is filled with parents letting their screaming brats run around, which isn't at all the restaurants fault. It's just that if you want to go in and have dinner. It's usually loud. We always get take out, which is just fine!

    Birria on right, pastor and fish tacos
    Julie V.

    This place is worth it for the condiments bar and home made tortillas alone! There's a big variety of tacos, including birria, pastor, tinga, fish. The birria with cheese special taco was out of this world. I added pickled onions from the condiment bar and the garlic cilantro sauce- which deserves its own review because it is so scrumptious. The pastor pork was a little bland, but if you add toppings, you don't need to worry. Nice service, the place was empty and has colorful Mexican tiles that give it an authentic vibe, also nice authentic music.

    Good grief! These are good tacos.

    See all

    A solid little taco place with freshly made corn tortillas to order, don't think you can't go wrong with any of the choices.

    Yep, this place is worth it. To simply put it: good tacos, good tacos bowls, good horchata, and good Jamaica.

    Some of the best pastor tacos I've had in the valley, and I've been to a lot of taco places.
