As always, the service was friendly and quick and the food was delicious. One of my favorite places for a quick bite

The food was really good, they had great portions, and our server victor was the best great server

Really good food but watch out for price gouging!! We recently dined at this restaurant and were absolutely floored by our final bill. One trick that they used is that when one of us asked for a margarita, the waiter smiled, and (as he was walking away) said "I'll make sure it's made top shelf for you". We all just smiled and said great. Foolish us... We did not think that him using the words "top shelf" and us nodding in agreement meant that we would end up with a bill for $17 per margarita... Which did not even give us a buzz. For that price, I want to be sitting on a beach with a margarita that is going to be so fantastic that I am seeing unicorns. Also, we asked for a small queso and received the smallest serving, which a tiny amount of watery queso...$7! We honestly felt that the overly nice wait staff was purposely taking advantage of us. Again, the food is always fantastic, but I guess we need to spend more time paying attention to pricing. read more

I was waiting on my truck at the oil change place today and decided to get lunch while they worked on my truck. I felt like Mexican and decided to try Maria's Mexican Kitchen. While it wasn't bad, I also was not impressed by any stretch of the imagination. The mood was casual, and service was friendly, but the food was, simply put, just average microwave Mexican food. I probably won't be back, there are too many good Mexican restaurants in the Beaufort area, however I will not go so far as to say this place is bad. It isn't, it's just not good either. read more

This restaurant has changed majorly since the last times we were there and not for the better I might add. The waiter was older and seemed confused with taking everyone's order and a few people did not get what they ordered . My Wife and I arrived before our group so should not been included with the mandatory gratuity. Our server was awful but we still would have given him $10. We have gone there quite a bit in the last couple of years and did not recognize and familiar faces of the Staff. This place used to be great but has gone down hill . We were very disappointed. read more

Maria's is our FAVORITE!!! I greatly appreciate the hot and freshly made chips and salsa but their white salsa is something special. Even more special is that the employees care! I recently moved but we used to frequent this establishment at least once a week but now I go every time I visit. This last trip they didn't have the white salsa but special made some just for me. Now that's service! Their Baja style carnitas and Al pastor tacos are my absolute favorite but I've had several items off the menu and it's always plenty of food and delicious! Their guacamole is also my favorite! Definitely a recommended place to everyone! The owners have a couple restaurants around Beaufort but Maria's is my favorite. read more

All the staff is so kind and helpful. The food is absolutely amazing and is the most flavorful Mexican food in Beaufort. Prices are reasonable and good food portions. Definitely recommend. read more

I really enjoyed the service and food at this restaurant. We were sat quickly and then the chips and salsa were pretty much immediately brought to us. The gentleman was understanding as he checked on us a couple of times since this was our first time and needed a minute with ordering. He even started to show my pictures on his phone of orders to help me decide. Lol. Once the food was brought he checked on us but not overbearing. The food was delicious and I had one taco left to take home. Unfortunately my mind was preoccupied of the yumminess of my food that I forgot to take the pre dig-in picture. I'd definitely go back to this establishment. read more

The food was really good. This is by far pne of the best Mexican restuarants in the area. Salsa for the chips, and the guac were both the best Ive had. Not to mention the giant Rio Grande burrito. My wife had a seafood type burrito. I dont usually care for seafood at Mexican restaurants and it was awesome. The service was great, and food was quick. read more

The service was great and so was the food. I ordered Pollo Asada and my husband ordered Americano burrito. We also had queso. We saw the ratings but decided to give it a try anyway and do not regret it. read more

Javier is The Best Waiter He is so attentive and provides service with a smile and accuracy. Food is always fresh,delicious and authentic,everything is made to order. It is our new favorite spot in Beaufort My family members have tried several of their house specialties and MARIAS chefs have not disappointed. Piña coladas and Modelo micheladas are great! read more

THIS THE PLACE DOESN'T DESERVE THREE STARS! IT NEEDS TO BE HIGHER!!! The food was excellent and yummy. The prices are a little high, but I understand I am in a tourist area, so what can I expect? I ordered online and drove from my hotel, which was 7 minutes away, and it was already ready with chips, Frys, a very generous portion of salsa, and our food all correctly made. Walking into the service was friendly, and the ambiance looked pretty. read more

marias mexican kitchen - Taco salad with a side of rice. - Mexican Near Me - Beaufort, South Carolina

Absolutely the worst Mexican restaurant in all of Beaufort and it's surrounding area. The chicken is chopped up in tiny little pieces, so much so that you almost do not recognize that it is chicken. I had fajitas and there was zero flavor. Here is another fact to know ahead of time. They charge you 3 percent additional if you pay with a debit card. Prices here are higher than other Mexican restaurants in the area, a coke is $4.19, portions are smaller and the overall ambiance is just old and needs some TLC. Save yourself and do not waste your time here. read more

marias mexican kitchen - Very high prices, portions are very small. - Mexican Near Me - Beaufort, South Carolina

It would have been a five star if I wasn't treated rudely. Restaurant was far from full and I asked to be seated in a larger booth due to my husband's size. They were rude about it and seats were never used. Food was excellent. Server was okay, didn't speak much. read more

Was so disappointed with Maria's and this added to our check. They have raised prices and now this. Was such a fan, take alot friends here and tell other since there not many good options in Beaufort. We will not be going back. Mexican food should not be this expensive and now extra charge shady. read more

The service was very good. The food was not on par with the service however. Perhaps I'm being biased because I'm comparing it to west coast Mexican food but not even close to is. The "loaded" fries were soggy and the protein that came with it didn't have a good seasoning. read more

This is a very good Mexican restaurant! I love their horchata and quesadilla. I also enjoy their salsa that they bring out before your meal. The servers are kind and helpful. read more

Coming back to write this review thinking I already wrote one about how extremely rude the waiters at this restaurant are. This happened 4 Months ago; my wife and I loved the food here but, for whatever reason, the waiters are just plain rude (with the exception of a few). It's almost if they are bothered to do their job! When asking them for something they always seemed bothered and I'm not sure why. The last time my wife and I went was what completely ruined it for us as we never returned again. The young female waiter rushed to get our order. Another time that evening we asked for a straw at which point she told us they were out of straws. Me being the observant person I am I looked at the other waiters and noticed they had an abundant amount of straws. I also noticed the tables around us had straws. I really couldn't understand what we ever did to the waiters here for them to act this way. If you want absolutely disgusting service by all means go here. Food is great....service is HORRIBLE!!! Obviously the owner and management doesn't seem to care as I also notice all the negative reviews have no replies to them. It's unfortunate..... read more

This place would have easily gotten a fourth star, but unfortunately all the protein in the fajitas - the chicken, beef and shrimp were not seasoned at all. We have found this practice at numerous other Mexican establishments and do not understand the kitchen's thought process here. Regardless of any vegetables, sauces, guacamole or salsas you still need to salt the meat and or seafood. The serving size was generous, and the diner was mostly pleased with his meal after dousing the concoction with a multiple of add ons. The menu harbors the usual suspects but also has more creative offerings often not found in other area restaurants, such as the street elote, huaraches, and deep fried whole tilapia. I enjoyed my enchiladas verdes with homemade corn tortillas stuffed with shredded chicken and topped with green sauce and tons of chopped fresh cilantro. I do appreciate this herb in Mexican cuisine, but the sprinkling of it was overly generous. Luckily, it did not have its usual soapy punch, but rather a more subdued flavor, almost like a flat leaf parsley. For a small town, it's amazing that yet another restaurant serving Mexican Cuisine has opened. We enjoyed it. The service was excellent, the atmosphere charming enough, and the prices were reasonable. I would return, but would have my eyes on a different menu choice. read more

Long story short very rude host. Just brushed me off while debating if I wanted to eat there. Went next door to an Asian restaurant, complete 180° and great customer service. Stay away read more

Food is probably better in the restaurant however use caution when ordering through door dash! read more

Was told by a coworker that this place had some bomb tacos , so I stopped to put their name to the test. The establishment is spacious, neat and clean. We were seated quickly but it's took 15 for our waiter to take our order for margaritas and water.. I had to flag someone down to tell them we were ready to order. The Margaritas were quite tasty and potent. The Tacos the 5 I ordered and destroyed were ok.. I don't think this were as good as my buddy claimed them to be.. the Steak was tough and bland and the Al pastor was too sweet read more

A month ago we asked to speak to the manager because this place deserved 6 stars. This evening I'm giving it 1 star and that's for the music! The waitress was sitting and socializing with other a table of friends. More interested in that than working. Her fellow services were busting it and also picking up her slack. I feel terrible but that girl needs training but you cannot train lack of ambition. Now I have to say the food was tasteful but lukewarm. Not sure who's fault that that was. I sure hope the manager or owner reads this review. Bad staff can ruin a business. Our visit was completely opposite from other visits. Too bad! read more

Visited town recently and went to Maria's because of a recommendation. So glad I did. I got three carne tacos (corn tortillas) and whoa were they delicious! Nice sized portions and flavorful. read more

I would give them 5 stars for the food easily the downfall with them is they see you walk in and act like you're invisible I work in the complex and twice yesterday and today went to get food. Not only do they see you they look you dead in the face and pretend their busy when the reality is they aren't doing anything but must have some kind of complex when it comes to speaking English or have an issue with black ppl. Whatever the issue I'm not coming back I stood there waiting then two patrons that was leaving came to the register he checked them out and literally tried to walk right pass me until I said excuse me I've been standing here waiting for someone and you continue to ignore me his response ok ok ok what do you need my response nothing and walked out. read more

We frequent Maria's regularly. They are always friendly and the food is delicious. They do get pretty busy with take out orders sometimes so they tend to forget who is standing at the front waiting for their food and who is coming into eat You might have to just make it known. They are not staffed to keep someone at the front at all times. Other than that, it's a great restaurant. read more

Food is good but the prices are so dramatic! Even the kids meals are full price . Ridiculous! Small portions large prices! My waitress was rude as hell when I asked about extra napkins , and the Wi-Fi password . She said they didn't have Wi-Fi lmao the guy standing behind her gave it to me! If u hate your job find a new one! read more

We started with the chips and some white dip. It was not good. Our order was wrong. Luckily we got another workers attention and the problem was fixed. The food was not good. I will not be back. read more

Delicious food :) And they were super friendly. I had the Enchiladas which I loved with green salsa that had a guacamole taste. Ingredients taste super fresh! read more

Ordered food to go on the website , when we got there to pick up (20 min later ) we were rudely told they didn't get an online order . Then went back to actually check me said it was being worked on . Orders 2 kids meals ( 1 cheeseburger and 1 chicken nuggets) both were substituted for a burrito and hard shell taco without asking , so we had to go somewhere else and buy more food for our kids elsewhere. The meat in the taco me burrito in the kids meals were so salty . And we ordered 6 sopes for ourselves that ALL WENT IN THE TRASH. The sour cream and Sope itself tasted old . read more

We looked at the other reviews and gave it a shot. So glad we did! The service was wonderful, food excellent and atmosphere pleasant. We are fairly new to this area so this cozy restaurant will definitely be on our go to list! read more

Pretty disappointing honestly I would've rather went to Taco Bell and spent less! I ordered a chicken quesadilla and got only cheese and I also ordered 3 American tacos. The tacos were so stale and I found a piece of aluminum foil in the ground beef. Never coming back read more

We loved the Veggie fajitas and sopes! The kids enjoyed their meals as well. I thought I left my nice sunglasses there and called about them the next morning. They were there! Awesome food and staff! Highly recommend. read more

This place is ok. There cheese with there chip dip isn't even cheese. There tacos are greasy as holy hell but we like the tacos and the service was bad they were mean. I don't recommend this read more

Went there tonight 11/27/21 ,herd alot about this place so wanted to try it. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!! Food was cold when it came out they gave us a bunch of crumbs for chips , the sorry excuse of a waiter sat us at a booth that two very small kids could get into, asked for another he said there weren't any . Mind you that there are only 10 couples in whole restaurant , then he brought our food and it was cold asked for eating utensils and he brought us plastic ware , asked for metal fork he said they don't have any , so asked then what are the people eating with at the other tables " oh we just ran out" so I called his bluff and said that there is no way a restaurant with only 10 other family's of 4 could run out of silverware. He proceeded to stomp of with an attitude and walk 5 steps and get them off the tray they were sitting on and then tried to tell me they were just brought out by bus boys. I don't know who runs this place but the staff needs to learn some respect for their patrons . Oh and he never came back with any refills so when he so rudely threw the tab on the table and it had a gratuity added in to it I subtracted that gratuity and left him cash and a quarter tip , maybe next time he will learn to be a little more professional in his work. But there's not gonna be a next time for me I will stick with LA nopolera or LA hacienda for Mexican food this place needs to shut its doors and close down for good. RANT OVER..... read more

This place is actually pretty good. Having spent most of my life in the Southwest, I love Mexican food. The bean-queso dip was not great. The queso was good but there were no refried beans in it. If there was, it sure didn't look like it as it was white and really runny. That said, we will definitely go back! read more

This restaurant claims that it is authentic Mexican food but sadly this is "white washed" there was absolutely no flavor in anything. As someone who is part Hispanic and is curious about the "Mexican restaurants" out here no thank you I will stick to making it all on my own the right way. Never going back. read more

this by far is the worst service experience ever!!! the waiters are super rude. i have eaten at this restaurant several times and i have never had a good experience with the waiters. seems that they get bothered by anything you ask for. if you want to make a change they rudely say they cant do it. we asked the waiter to make a change and he said that was not possible, but the time before that he changed it. i asked him why were we able to do it last time. he said ok just this time i will change (very rudely). you ask for something and its as if it bothers them to help. why are they waiting tables if that's their job? i went last tuesday and this was the cherry on top. the lady was bothered and she rushed our orders. i asked the lady for a straw and she said we are out of straws. my husband then noticed that every waiter had straws in their aprons, and then he asked for a straw. she said we don't have any!!!!! every table had its drinks and straws!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i felt as if it were discrimination and i am hispanic!!! i left 0 tips!!! i will never return to this restaurant and i will make sure to let them know how they mistreat people. we were regulars, but they always made us feel uncomfortable. their job is to attend to people with great service and attend to our needs. just disgusting!!!! im embarrassed to know that is our hispanic community. disgustingggggggggggg!!!!! read more
