Having passed by Maya's regularly for several year I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. Located in Casa Linda Shopping Center, Maya's offerers its owner's own take on Mediterranean cuisine. I had the beef plate with a generous serving, delicately seasoned. Tabbouleh and babaganoush were the sides. I also got an order of falafel with tzatziki sauce. One pita was included. My friend had the roast chicken pita and cauliflower rice. Everything was delicious and filling. Service was helpful and patient carefully explaining to menu items to my friend, a first- timer to Mediterranean food. Ambience is basic and non pretentious. Outside seating looked comfortable and perfect for some Texas days. Maya's Modern Mediterranean is a small gem and worthy of its reputation. Certainly worth a second (and third) visit. read more

My favorite place for a healthy and quick service meal. I personally love the honey chicken with their rice, cauliflower, and/or the salad on the side. The garlic sauce is fabulous! Great place and very consistent. Also, easy to find parking read more

We had a wonderful experience at Maya's Modern Casa Linda. We sat out on the patio with our dog, which was such a nice touch and made us feel very welcome. The food was absolutely delicious, and the wine on tap was a great surprise--fresh and perfectly paired with our meal. Service was quick, attentive, and friendly. Linda made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. We'll definitely be back! read more

I've got mixed reviews... Some good and some bad. Turmeric rice and the various sauces were really good! Salmon was overcooked, falafels were wayyyyyyy too doughy and the turmeric cauliflower felt like it should have been served hot, not lukewarm/cool. Service was mids, I asked if the salmon was farm or wild caught and she just said "I don't know" she didn't offer to find out or anything. No enthusiasm whatsoever Overall, it was pretty underwhelming, but we were hungry so it did its job. I'm not sure I would come back. We enjoyed the fountain view from the small porch. read more

Super delicious for lunch or a nice dinner. The cashier was super nice and she helped by suggesting some of her favorites with a killer combination sauce for the salmon. The food was fresh and very great quality for the price. The spices were spot on with not too much salt or oil. The staff was friendly, quick and clean. They do have wifi and they also have homemade lemonade which is yummy. The hummus and all the sides were really good. The portions are also great for the price. read more

The chicken harissa soup is the cure for most things that ail you; so yumnomnom I get it at least once a week

Wow! What a gem in the heart of Dallas. Let me first start off by saying I am vegitarian and gluten free and someone who appreciates quality food over quantity. Well Maya's checked all my boxes and more. The menu was easy to follow and offered delicious options for any person. I ordered the mixed plate appetizer with amazing sauces and fresh veggies. For the main dish I ordered the Mixed salad with Cauliflour steak! It was amazing and the portion was so big I took half home for another meal. My friend with me ordered the Chicken Pita and he loved it as well. As a plus, I met the owner Russell, and I thanked him for making such good healthy food. His eyes lit up and he shared with me how important quality is to his resaurant and how they tried 10 different organic olive oils to make sure the picked the BEST for their menu. His passion for quality and service showed off as he shared some of his methods and ingredients he uses. Well I am a huge fan and highly recommend everyone to try this high quality fast casual establishment! PS. He is opening another location on Arapaho and Hilcrest and I will definently go there since I live in Frisco. Enjoy! read more

Solid eatery for lunch. Good selection of drinks, good food, and good seating. I'll come again. I had not been to this nook of the Dallas area before and this is tucked away in a storefront with shared parking, as most places are. I'd say be careful not to park in the next door business's "to go" spot, because I did, and then felt bad later. But the food was good at Maya's, so I felt better. Ha. What you'll see is a salad with salmon added, and a beer (Velvet Antler). read more

10 out of 10 if I were able to score this place. Iraq vet whom hates public places or crowds ; but love mediterranean food. The ambience to which was given was completely positive; as if it were straight out of a 1990s cookbook of welcoming warmth! The food is beyond imaginable. The salmon was so on point I literally cannot go anywhere else and expect better in the area. Their sauces are so fire I literally have to call my friends that live in the area JUST TO tell them to bring their families here. You will definitely have a smile on your face; before , during, and after your exchange at this restaurant. The falafel here is actually moist as can be; not any bit dry and WOWW Do they KNOW how to properly prepare REAL hummus. . This food made us feel GOOD About our bodies that we're taking time before the 80 mile hike back home into North Texas to go on a stroll in the park near by with our baby boy! read more

I've been to Maya's Modern Mediterranean at least two more times since my first visit, and unfortunately, I have to knock down my rating one star. The restaurant seems to be a bit inconsistent, which I feel comfortable saying because I've ordered the same exact meal each time. Each visit, the air-fried falafel is either a bit over-cooked and dry or like my latest visit, it was undercooked and chewy. The roasted cauliflower was a bit on the greasy side during my last visit too. This all being said, the restaurant is clean and the staff are friendly. read more

Placed walk-in to go order: -Cup of Harrisa Chicken Soup. -Cup of Lentil Soup -Falafels Harrisa Chicken soup was a cup of flavorful chicken broth, but maybe..MAYBE a tablespoon of the chicken and veggies as described Lentil soup the same, only maybe...MAYBE a teaspoon of lentils. Falafels.... Well somebody got more than a little heavy handed w the garlic in the mix...they are usually good, but this order was inedible. Better luck next time... if there is a next time read more

Let me save you some time, money, and sheer humiliation: DO NOT eat at or cater from Maya's Modern Mediterranean. Ever. This place is an absolute travesty, and I'm convinced the owner, Russell, must live in an alternate reality where burnt, inedible garbage qualifies as "Mediterranean food." I hired them to cater my wife's baby shower, and what they delivered wasn't just bad--it was a complete culinary catastrophe. Russell assured me that I "wouldn't be disappointed." Not only was I disappointed, but I'm actively disgusted--and every single one of our guests were, too. Imagine having people at the baby shower whispering that the food is the worst Mediterranean food they've ever eaten. Yeah, that's the level of embarrassment we're talking about. Let's get to the specifics because the devil is in the disgusting details. The portion sizes? Way off. We ordered enough to feed our guest list, and what we received wouldn't have satisfied a pack of feral cats. And the beef kabobs? I wouldn't even serve them to my dog. They were overcooked, burnt to a crisp, and straight-up looked like dog shit. No exaggeration--just charred, shriveled lumps of misery that somehow managed to taste even worse than they looked. It was almost impressive how they managed to ruin something as simple as kabobs. Now, onto the professionalism--or rather, lack thereof. After the disaster, I confronted Russell, who at least pretended to take responsibility. We agreed on a refund amount, and he told me he'd mail a check. Guess what? Weeks later, no check. No response. Russell has completely ghosted me, proving just how unprofessional and shady this establishment truly is. This isn't just bad food--it's an outright scam. Russell and Maya's Modern Mediterranean ruined what should have been a beautiful, joyful day, and I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. If you value your money, your time, and your dignity, stay far, far away from this place. It's not just bad--it's offensive. read more

Let me start by saying that the aesthetic of this place is so light and clean! The food is great! The people are so sweet and it is located in a great place! If you are in the area and plan on having some lunch or dinner this is a great little "To-go" or "dine in" spot for smaller crowds. The food is very light and not over seasoned. It is a healthy palette and I love it! I'll definitely be going back to try more dishes! Ok now bye bye then! read more

Good fresh Mediterranean food at a reasonable price. This is a great little place in my neighborhood. Hummus superb! read more

Worst experience ever at the Casa Linda location. First I walked in and there were two customers there, together. As I stood there waiting for someone to help me, no one came but there was two girls in the back at the bar talking to one another. But didn't even acknowledge me. I had to go back and ask if they were open. Secondly I found the menu confusing, it doesn't describe the food well at all. They seem to want you to put it together yourself. If I want to put it together myself I might as well make it myself. I was very disappointed. I will never go back read more

Holy cow, I LOVE this place!! Every time I've gone my intention is to get it for dinner with some left over for lunch the next day. I'm sorry to report that I have never had lunch the next day as I can't stop eating this dinner!! This is also the reason why I can't comment on many of their menu items as I crave the Shwarma plate with shkug, tabbouleh and Israeli salad and therefore never convince myself to try anything else. Hummus is so good and creamy though. I now order a whole order of that to ensure some is left the next day. As I type this review, all of the above has just happened. It's amazing and I can't wait for it to happen all over again! (Sorry lunch...) read more

I don't understand all the stellar reviews for this place. Our experience was entirely different. I could easily go 2 stars but I am nice so I'll be generous. I usually love Middle Eastern food so this place was a complete disappointment. Let's see, where to begin? Service was very slow, they got the order wrong, only part of one order came out because the other part was dropped on the floor, which entailed another long wait, and the food was mediocre. The kid's honey chicken was completely dried out to the extent that she could and would not eat it. There was nothing honey about it, it was just a dried out kabob of chicken. Complete waste of money. The wife's shawarma chicken was likewise completely dried out. Bone dry. Desert-like dry. Another complete waste of money. She did not like it at all, and I tried it and agree. The worst I have ever tasted. My falafel was strange. Usually falafels come with the chickpea balls, tahini sauce, and then some greens and tomatoes. These were just the balls and tahini. The balls are air fried which is nice but they lacked crispiness. The pita was from a package and not home baked. The tahini was ok but a bit watery and the portion was tiny, not nearly enough for 4 balls. The hummus had a strong lemon flavor and it was ok but not close to what Izmir serves. I usually like to support locally owned, neighborhood restaurants, but I can't think of a reason why we should return. read more

Since Maya's opened it has become one of our favorite Mediterranean restaurants that we frequent, especially when we want healthy options and it also helps that they are a short drive away from our home. Every time we go the restaurant is always clean, bright and I love the pretty paintings on the wall. I've been trying to stick to a low carb way of eating so on this visit I opted for the chicken shawarma bowl with roasted cauliflower instead of rice, chopped Mediterranean salad and I've topped it with the harisa ranch as well as there lemon garlic sauce which I'm absolutely obsessed with. The chicken shawarma is delicious but to me the star of the show is the roasted cauliflower, it is perfectly seasoned and I love how they let it get just the slightest bit charred on the edges to give it a little bit more depth of flavor. The harisa ranch lends a touch of creaminess and a nice hint of spice but the lemon garlic sauce creates an explosion of flavors and really takes it over the top in the best way possible. Their lemon garlic sauce is not for the faint of heart so if you're a garlic lover like I am, then I highly recommend a drizzle of this on just about anything you have here at Maya's!! read more

Maya's Modern Mediterranean - Roasted Chicken Shawarma bowl with roasted cauliflower - Mediterranean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I found this gem after I had been to the Dallas Arboretum and wanted something healthy. You order at the front of the restaurant and they come out with the food when it's ready. You can also order online if you prefer to just pick it up. They have plenty of seats inside and also a nice patio. There are a lot of other stores and restaurants right next door so there's plenty of parking available. I wasn't sure what to get but the owner was very helpful and described the different options. I wanted something vegetarian so I went with the garlic-roasted eggplant with hummus and harissa sauce. I also decided on the taboulleh and roasted vegetables as my sides. Once I got the food I wished I had ordered appetizers to try some other things because it was so good! The roasted eggplant was amazing! It had such good flavor and it wasn't dry at all. The hummus was also very good and the harissa had a little more heat than I had expected which was fine. The taboulleh was good, I liked the roasted vegetables even more. The service was great, they were very friendly and came out with the food quickly. They also have good COVID restrictions so definitely felt safe. I live almost an hour away but I'm going to need to find a reason to make the trip here again. read more

I had delivered it was raining and didn't feel like going out, delivered on time and the flavors were good but that where it stopped. It was cold and beef kabobs and salmon were dry and overcooked. Our soup was not in and we paid extra for all of the add ons. I don't think I'll be ordering again I was disappointed read more

It's nice to have a healthyish, and affordable choice in the neighborhood. My standard is the chicken shawarma with lemon sauce, Israeli salad, and tabouli, which is delicious when it's good, but I have found it to sometimes be inconsistent. The chicken can be so dry that it's literally like wood chips or toothpicks that get lodged between your teeth. Now, whenever I order, I actually ask them to make sure that it's not dry, and it's solved my problem. Interestingly, I mentioned it to the manager, and he said that some people request the crunchy version. Strange, but okayyy. I also have to call out the chicken soup, which is unbeatable on an icy or sick day. I've been to Maya's many times, and like I said the good is very good. I really hope not to get defensive feedback to my honest review, because that would be disappointing. read more

Really enjoyed my first experience here for dinner and glad to see a thriving restaurant like this one in the East Dallas neighborhood! To start we enjoyed the sampler platter which included a fresh medley of carrots, pita, Mediterranean vegetable salad, falafel and delicious olive spread and garlic sauce. I enjoyed the falafel being air baked vs fried. For dinner I enjoyed the Mediterranean salad and I added salmon which was cooked perfectly! Brian had the chicken kabobs which looked great and were grilled to perfection. I added the lemon vinaigrette dressing which was also very delicious and paired well with my salad. Overall very good and fresh food with a great variety to suit all palates. The service was also good and the cashier where we ordered was very helpful. She made some really good recommendations! We'll definitely be back and glad it's only a few minutes from home! read more

this is definitely a gem. I found this place by accident. And I have already been there twice in one week. The food is amazing. Service awesome!! read more

Gave this new place a chance to get up to speed and popped in! Excellent idea for a healthier choice! Plenty of parking and easier to get to. Seating is both inside and on a nice patio. The décor is fresh and kept clean. Being new, it was very clean. The counter staff was exceptionally helpful with placing our order as they gave us many options. We ordered Rolled Beef Kabobs, Rice and Chopped salad (tomato, cucumber and sweet pepper with Tahini) extra pita for me and my date ordered Honey Chicken Kabobs with fries and chopped salad (tomato, cucumber and sweet pepper with Tahini). We tried two desserts (Chocolate hummus and sesame butter chocolate brownie). The drinks are self-serve and there were some healthy options. The food was all delicious! The pita was very filling and the chocolate Humus is fantastic! Price is very reasonable for the food, taste, quality and options. This will become a favorite place very quickly! read more

Great food here, but portions were a skimpy so I probably won't come back and won't recommend it. The flavors are amazing, everything is fresh, and it's very clean. However for the price point we're kinda at the minimum acceptable portions: very tiny ramekins of hummus, tablespoon of rice, and half pita. Most Mediterranean places I go offer a more generous plate, not here. read more

Visiting Dallas over the weekend and was craving Mediterranean food. Maya's Modern Mediterranean was absolutely outstanding. Had the honey chicken kabob which was the most delicious and tender chicken I've had in long time from a restaurant. Absolutely everything was so freshly prepared. Their hummus is definitely the best. Service was over the top. Super friendly staff with great smiles. Made sure we had what we needed, very tentative. The place itself has a very down to earth feeling, very relaxing. Nothing fancy, yet very comfortable and nice. Will definitely visit this place again when back in Dallas. read more

Man what a cool place this turned out to be! Going out with my daughter and wife - and knowing my daughter likes Mediterranean, we chose this spot. I'm not much on Mediterranean, well not until I went here! I think I got it in a bowl (or plate - whatever). Didn't have a clue what to order, so asked what was recommended - yea that was a good Idea. She started naming stuff off and I was - uh huh . Had the chicken protein. Had the Shkug and one other sauce to mix in - fantastic! Turmeric rice, because why not! Oh - and BTW they have some awesome drinks there as well! We tried several of the sanpellegrino sparkling water. All unique and delicious! read more

Do yourself a favor and try each of the protein options. Each one is excellent! I live in Royse City now so when I go I get a family meal. Did you know you can get Mediterranean salad as a side in family pack? Perfect side for summer or any time. Love ALL the sides and chicken harissa soup. I need to try the lentil soup. Sauces are really good. Favorites are harissa ranch, balsamic vinaigrette, Persian honey. Staff is friendly and helpful. Restaurant is clean and pleasant. read more

I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu and get a drink. read more
