I love Taco Maya! I try to stop at this location anytime that I am near Schaumburg. Everyone here is always really nice. This time I was helped by Rochan and Doneel and had a really pleasant experience. Food was perfect as always and ready fast! read more

It really should be more like 4 1/2 stars, but we don't have that option. The food is always really good here and the atmosphere is fun. When I walked in the employee standing at the front desk to use a kiosk as opposed to ask me if that was OK or offering to take my order. Otherwise, the food is excellent. I do really like the fact the menu lets you choose flour, corn, or single corn tortilla. Not a huge fan of getting the double tortilla tacos. read more

Taco Maya - Another photo of me forgetting to take photos before I start eating. That is a chorizo taco - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

They need to improve hygiene, customer service and whatever policy they claim that customers must clean after they finish eating! I came twice and I was disappointed! Staff are rude! And no hygiene ! We were ready to leave after we ate a food my nephews couldn't eat , and we asked if they would give us something else, and will pay the difference or extra $$ for it just please exchange it for us! they said whatever you buy you must eat it, and the worker or the manager by the register rudly said we need to clean the table because it's not their job to clean after us! Now. My question here as a customer? Isn't your restaurant sir?? To keep it up to standard after ur customers leaves? Or you want us to sweep the floor and do the dishes too ??? Never going back not worth the hype... read more

Came here late night after flying in. We arrived at 10pm to chicago and this was the only spot open. Food quality is great! I got the al pastor taco plate which is an all day deal for $9.99. Al pastor had lots of flavor and even came w diced pineapple. Lots of sauces available at the sauce bar, Jalapeño Salsa is the best one!! The only thing is that the normal price is kinda steep for a normal taco spot, sitting around $4-5 per taco...I do feel that the taco is worth maybe $3 each especially because they aren't fully loaded tacos. Service was great, the guy at the front was super helpful and patient, he even made sure we got our good pretty swiftly. Ambiance is fine, it's an order then eat type of situation. Lots of seating available inside and lots of parking available as well in the complex. Store is located in an easy spot to see from the street as well. read more

My husband and I visited to celebrate Cinco De Mayo which also happened to be Taco Tuesday this year! Taco Maya's running Tuesday special is buy 2 tacos, get 1 free. They had a wide variety of tacos flavors from classics to signature flavors. They also had 5 veggie options! My husband and I knew we had to order their new "soft serve margarita". They had strawberry, mango, or swirl flavors. We got the swirl and it was presented with a Tajin rim and fruit garnish. Although it lists it had alcohol in it, it definitely just tasted like ice cream. Still delicious! For food, I got 2 ground beef tacos and the Chili Potato taco. I loved the ground beef flavor but the chili potato was a bit spicy for me. My husband got the Signature, Birria, and Chicken Tikka tacos. The Signature was by far his favorite followed by the Birria. The Chicken Tikka taco was ok. We arrived when there was a lull in busyness but staff seemed a bit flustered. We had to correct the woman working the cash register twice as she was punching in the wrong flavors. When our food came, we were offered the wrong order twice as well as I got the wrong toppings on mine. One gentleman was quick to step in and correct the situation. We got our correct orders and they gave the two wrong tacos to us complimentary. Overall, this is a great fast casual Mexican spot. I like that you can visit multiple times and still have new items to try. read more

Driving around hungry wanting some tacos on a late night I just happened to come across this lil gem! Not your typical taco place and i wouldn't even call it authentic. I think it's more tacos with a modern twist. They have a number of different types of tacos to order and a very nice selection of different dishes from tacos to burritos to tortas and fries etc. They also have like 6-8 different types of hot sauce which I think is cool! I tried like 3 of them but I of course forgot their names but they were good!! Come check them out. I will surely be back. read more

I just had to share about a recent dinner my wife and I had at the Taco Maya in Schaumburg. Full disclosure, I'd popped into their Bloomingdale spot when it first opened and it didn't quite hit the mark for me back then, so I wasn't really planning on a return visit. But then my wife mentioned they had a samosa taco and honestly, that was all it took. I was intrigued enough to give the Schaumburg location a shot, and boy, am I glad we did. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by Nagesh, who was an absolute star. He was so genuinely friendly and super helpful. I usually like to get recommendations, and he totally delivered with some fantastic suggestions. He also casually mentioned their app has a cool deal where you get $7 off your first order if you sign up for to go. We decided to dine in that night, and Nagesh smoothly guided us through everything pointing out the big menu on the screen and also handing us a smaller one to look over at our table. He just told us to take our time and come up to order when we were ready, which was really nice and relaxed. I went for the three taco dinner, which comes with rice and your choice of refried or black beans. Heads up, if you go for one of their specialty tacos in the dinner, it's an extra dollar per taco, but totally worth it. My first taco was the steak, and wow, it was phenomenal. The meat was incredibly tender, packed with flavor, and had that perfect char you dream of. Next up was the Chingon taco steak and chorizo with melted cheese, Yes please. The combination of the char on the steak and the kick from the chorizo really made that one sing. For my third taco, I usually steer clear of Al Pastor, but Nagesh really sold me on it when I asked him about it and you know what. My mind was blown. The Al Pastor was incredible, and the pineapple was just perfect. Seriously, I haven't had an Al Pastor taco that good in years, Taco Maya just set a new standard for me. That samosa taco. Pure genius, Who would have thought those flavors would work so perfectly in a taco. My wife tried the paneer taco and loved hers too, which is always a good sign. We also swung by the salsa bar, which was super clean and had a great selection to customize our tacos. My favorite the jalapeno salsa. We also shared an order of Nachos Supreme, piled high with steak, and they were really good overall. If I had one tiny suggestion, it would be to add a little more refried beans and queso, but that's just a personal preference. The only slight disappointment was the guacamole it tasted a little flat and was a bit on the darker side, so it could use a brighter, fresher note. honestly, those tacos and Nagesh's service made our night. We absolutely loved everything else and are already planning our next trip back. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, they've got tequila drinks and beer buckets too if you're looking for a little something extra and there's music and tv's to watch while you wait. read more

Taco's are catered to anyone of color, race, and religion. They are update to date in dishes, environment, and are helpful to their customers. read more

I would say 2.5/5 Food is ok because they load it with sauce but nicely cooked The service is just fine Yummy tacos Inside sticky and crumbs tables Still an ok place read more

Always love coming here for shrimp tacos. Their sreak tacos isnt bad either. I love some branches because their horchata is unlimited and beside the soda but i think you just need to ask the staff for refills and the give it to you. The Maya Salad isnt really our thing although im not sure if it would have been betger with protien in it. Its casual fun place to hang out in. Will definitely be coming back! Happy eating! read more

The food is made to order, they have a great menu to choose from and prices are about average. You need to try this restaurant you won't be disappointed. The service is very good and the restaurant has seating and is very clean read more

Taco Maya had some delicious tacos that were very filling. We got some steak tacos and some shrimp tacos with corn tortillas and they did not disappoint. You can get American style or Mexican style tacos. They even got a salsa bar where you have different options for the type of salsa you like. My favorite is Jalapeño Hot has really good flavor. You also get chips and salsa if you dine in! They had alot of seating even a party room for bigger groups. Place was nice to hangout but just a few tables that could've been clean but nothing to bad. A little more pricey then your normal taco spot but i think its worth it. Also the Horchata was good and even better you get free Refills! Which you normally don't get for horchata, they also serve beer and coke in the bottle! Will be returning read more

Many choices of tortas, burritos and tacos. The beans and rice was good and tortas were delicious. The menu is confusing because you do not get the drink with torta. You get the beans and rices. The staff was nice to give the beans and rice free because I didn't understand the menu. read more

My daughter and I come here about once a week and we have never had bad food or service. If you're looking for authentic, this ain't it. HOWEVER, it is so freaking good and all their tacos are huge and delicious. Every. Single. ONE. I also love their salsa bar. I have to also state how nice everyone we've encountered here is and their impeccable service. We will always support this business and keep coming back. Pro tip: on weekdays during lunch hours, they have a 3 taco special that comes with rice, beans, and chips for only 10 bucks. What a steal. read more

Food was very good, they probably kept the same cook, but they have new owners. Their prices online are not updated and you used to get a basket of chips with one refill for free now you get a small amount of chips and refills are three dollars.!! read more

The food is always great! The staff is always happy and friendly, they go out of their way to accommodate you in Schaumburg and Bloomingdale. From the manager, to the staff, especially Praeli. So kind and generous. If you have not had their tacos on Tuesdays, what are you waiting for??? The fish and shrimp are my favorite! Thank you guysBlessings to you all and Happy New Year read more

First time, trying out Taco Maya. I didn't realize it's a chain with many locations in Illinois. I would give this location a 4.5. Place was clean. Plenty of tables to sit and eat. Sauce bar. Service was good, it did not take them long to get your food to you if you are dining in. Prices range from cheap to slightly expensive for a taco. I like to try the speciality ones, so if the price matches the quality then I'm okay with that. They give you free chips and salsa while waiting. Chips are very good, not overly salty. I ordered the signature taco, dorado taco, chicken tinga taco, elotes, rice, and horchata. Signature 5/5 - very flavorful. Everything pairs well. Dorado 5/5 - fish was moist and i love that Chipotle Mayo that goes with it. Chicken tinga 5/5 - generous amount of meat and it wasn't dry. Rice 1/5 - i love Mexican rice but i would prefer it to be without the peas. Peas kind of ruined the taste for me. Elotes 5/5 - it has a little kick to it. Horchata 5/5 - one of the best ones I've had here. Good amount of cinnamon. Taco salad 5/5 was big and you get a large amount for the price. read more

Absolute waste of money! Atmosphere, food, drinks etc all rated for a fast food at best yet the price is for a high end restaurant. They charge you for a service fee and ask to tip, you have to order your food at the cashier then clean up your table. Spend that much money, definitely go to Fat Rosie's!!! read more

First time here. Wife and I stopped in on a Monday afternoon. Wife got chicken tacos, I got a chicken tamale, & we got elotes to share. All the food was good. Wife isn't used to the onions being cooked, but she liked it. Elotes was very food. Tamale was fine. They have a bunch of sauce options as well! Some very hot (which I like)! Service was alright. Nothing special or great to point out. Was a bit weird that all our food came at different times, so we ate separately. Overall it was good. read more

Def I highly recommend coming here even if u order to go and don't decide to stay. the location also is easy to get in and out and plenty of parking in the Plaza. read more

Met a friend here for fast casual counter service. Lot of interesting taco items and many food choices. I thought I'd go with the salad keeping it a little healthier and my friend said she really enjoys the chicken Tinga so I ordered that as a protein. Little disappointed as there wasn't much lettuce in the salad. With the dressing mixed in, I felt it was equal parts, lettuce, corn, and other toppings, so very saturated and not feeling healthy at all. They have a nice salsa bar and give you complementary chips with your order so that part was good. I guess I'd go back and try something else but not get the salad thinking it's healthy or at least a good amount of lettuce. Plenty of seating. read more

My food was so good! Hard to find a good taco place in Schaumburg but they did a great job! My tacos were so good and they have some interesting ones if you want to try something new! My fave. Is the chicken tikka! And omg don't even get me started on the salsas! It's hard to find a good creamy jalapeño to paid with my Al pastor! Shout it to Vedank Parshad my cashier he was super friendly and made great suggestions! read more

We love this restaurant. The food is fresh and very tasty. The dining room is warm and comfortable in the winter. It is clean and nicely decorated. Brachi, the server is very kind and helpful. read more

We've ordered takeout from Taco Maya many times. The food is very good and always ready pretty quickly for pickup. I'll usually order the chicken taco dinner or the Al pastor taco dinner with onions and cilantro. They serve their tacos with grilled onions rather than raw, but I like them either way. If you'd like, you can choose 3 different tacos for your dinner. They have a wide variety of tacos to choose from, including a Nashville taco, which is nice and spicy! I really like their shrimp tacos, too. I want to try the others because they have so many! My boyfriend loves their burritos. Sometimes, we have people over and will order from here- everyone is always loving the food! I can't comment on the atmosphere because I've never eaten inside, but I can say the service is great from all the times we've ordered from them. read more

Good food meets nice and quick service. Our go -to taco place. We always go for their signature tacos

I like this place. I love the seating options and how their enchiladas come with fiesta cup beans.

Slow service ,waited 15 mins for a cold burrito with barely any meat,20.70 cents for crap cold food,thought i would give another chance boy was i wrong read more

Complete rip off, $20.00 spent and no food in the bag, the bag had no weight, the tacos $5.00 each had about 1 teaspoon of meat or cheese inside. Service was very slow which is confusing because the tacos were as light as a feather. Ambiance was a completely empty restaurant. Ever pick up a to go bag and the napkins & salsa weigh more than the food? No weight = No food. Very poor value. Taco Maya lacks a moral compass, greedy greedy greedy. read more

Taco Maya is in a little strip mall and offers a lot of indoor as well as an outdoor dining area. Put your order in at the counter then go to the self serve taco sauces and beverage stations. I ordered takeout of the 3 taco plate (soft shell chicken taco's) that comes with rice and beans which was pretty good. I like that they have the self serve taco sauce station with many choices from mild to xtra hot and other fun ones to try that I hadn't heard of before. The beans were put in a little taco bowl so they didn't run into the tacos in the takeout container. Tacos were assembled nicely and were flavorful. Packaging for takeout was great. Although this is a good place, with so many taco places I'm not limiting myself to one. This place is good for carryouts. It's fun to try different taco places as each has their own uniqueness. read more

Was in town for the week and wanted to try this Mexican spot. For appetizers we got the guacamole and queso. The queso was great and light while the guac was packed with flavor. The tacos I got were also quite flavorful. The paneer taco was my favorite. I got the tacos with flour tortillas but will probably get it with corn tortillas next time. The falafel taco was pretty interesting and the first time I've had a taco like that. The atmosphere was relaxed and it was not too busy. Food was well priced and the staff were great. Overall, a great spot for a good taco and appetizer. Will have to come back and try some of their non-taco dishes! read more

Tacos here were very good. Portions are generous and the options are great. We ordered 3 signature tacos - dorado, signature and chicken tinga. All were delicious, my favorite was the signature. Very unique. We also ordered 3 taco platter - carnita taco, steak taco and chicken taco. Those were also very good, traditional and tasty. The platter also comes with rice and beans and it was meh. Rice isn't seasoned very well, or at all. Same as the black beans, very bland with minimal seasoning. Probably wouldn't order the platter next time however the tacos are delicious! We ordered online for pick up and it easy to navigate. The estimated wait time was accurate, our order was ready to go once we arrived. Overall I really like taco Maya, they have traditional tacos as well as 'modern' and fun tacos. read more

I'm leaving this review because I really enjoyed the Niles location and it was complete accident when I found this taco place. I recently went to the one in Schaumburg. I had the same experience as the one in Niles. I would recommend going here if you're looking for fast food, Mexican food they have a selection of sauces for your tacos and tortas and pretty much anything you want to put sauce on. I like that they're open late at the Schaumburg location. read more

This place is horrible! I have given it to try and both times not only did they make my tacos wrong they forget food. They never give you the size. Do you have to call back in. And even then I had to go to corporate not worth the money. read more

This was a last minute decision at 1030pm at night. Busy as all, I mean busy! Get up to the counter, the nice man at the counter was so helpful, and gave great recommendations. The place is not very big, but they get you in pretty quick. The food was amazing!!!! The prices were within reasonable. I loved the chips and salsa bar......my favorite, more places should have that! For sure going back! read more
