Taqueria Maria - Try the Green Sauce too! - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

This place was solid. Not the most amazing Mexican food I've ever eaten but definitely a decent comfort meal. The salsa bar was a little too spicy for me and my friend thought the meat on her taco was too dry but my husband enjoyed his chicken dish. The tortilla on the side of his plate was nice and chewy and delicious. The staff was helpful and it seemed to be popular with the locals. For an area with limited options, it was a good meal. read more

The enchiladas sauce was watered down. Not for me. Off to the next. The third star is for the tacos. They were pretty good read more

I used to love eating here but $40 for two burritos (and one of those burritos being a vegetarian burrito) is absolutely ridiculous!

Taqueria Maria - Updated Prices - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

Been going here since high school, so for 20 years now give or take (wow I'm getting old). Still eat here regularly including today. The food hasn't changed in all that time which is a huge compliment. I remember running into my teachers here constantly because not even they could resist the burritos. My go to's are Al pastor or carne asada as either super nachos or a super burrito. Burritos always come with a bag of their homemade tortilla chips. All orders come with condiment cups so you can grab pico de gallo, salsas, radishes, lime wedges, or jalapeños from their salsa bar. True Californians know salsa is meant to be poured onto each bite of your burrito and Taqueria Maria provides 3 tasty homemade salsas to do that with. Staff are friendly and fast. I'm also pretty sure it's family run. Not the place for a fancy meal or decor but if you want Mexican food done right and big portions for your money then this is your spot. I prefer it to the famous burrito places like La Taqueria (but I am very biased as a Richmond local). read more

I'll tell you what, they make the best shrimp cocktail! Plenty of shrimp, avocados, and other necessary ingredients to make it taste amazing. read more

Taqueria Maria - Shrimp cocktail - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

Unbelievable $19 for a regular burrito. with a little stupid sign saying prices went up due to foods are more expensive. That is true but you can get yourself a big bag of rice,beans and meat and packs of tortillas. You can go to Costco or a wholesale. By buying a bulk, you save money. Also the little bitch looked annoyed when I'm the customer. I'm not a cheap ass, but I'm unbelievable. read more

Ordered a super burrito asked for light black beans and they gave me no rice really instead my burrito was so skinny and I paid $18 for this. I tried calling multiple times the lady acts like she doesn't hear me and now when I call it goes straight to voicemail. This is the last time I'm going to this. I used to come every time, but now they lost a loyal customer. read more

Taqueria Maria - Ordered carne asada with light black beans. And they barely put any rice, paid $18 and this is crazy - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

Had horrible service this Sunday, had to standup for my own drink, had to ask them to bring me my food that was sitting in the counter for multiple minutes, overpriced food. read more

Don't buy asada burritos here! Cold as hell, barely any meat, not well cooked, very unsatisfied. I've been to other taquerias & serve better food than this. I highly recommend going somewhere else. I don't understand why taquerias nowadays think they should raise everything up & screw up the quality of the food. Last time buying here. read more

Taqueria Maria - Carne asada burrito - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

My friends are fans, the lunch meet-up group I belong to are all fans, and I sure am. Why you might ask, do we all enjoy coming here? We order at the counter, so there is no problem in figuring out who owes what. The food has always been tasty. The portions are generous. I have never been able to finish a plate which is fine; I bring it home for the next day. Even the al carte orders are big. The last time I was here I ordered tacos and a Chile relleno ala carte I thought it would not be a lot of food. I should have noticed the price before I ordered; it would have given me a hint of how much food I was going to have. I was too embarrassed to ask for them to take something off my order and I was even more embarrassed when two large plates were put in front of me at the table. On the plus side, I did get 5 meals out of this huge order. On a couple of previous visits, I had shrimp Diablo and the bistek ranchero. They were both quite spicy. I usually have them leave off the beans and add extra rice. My favorite menu item is the chili relleno. They roast a good-sized pepper; it is fully stuffed with cheese, and covered with a ranchero sauce. They do a great job of clearing out the pepper seeds. The chips are okay, I do like the salsas. My only quibble is that the salsas are not marked, I do like to know what they are before I put them in the very small cups. The restaurant has always been busy when I've come here and the line can be long. The service is efficient and not particularly friendly. Perhaps that is because I am usually here at lunch when it is busy. A plus is easy parking and the central location near the freeway. I can eat here or take it home quickly and enjoy the food before it is cold. read more

Called numerous times and they picked up and hung up. My friend was there to pick up my order and said that the guy was eating and we're not busy at all!! Please answer the phone if you want to be in business.!! read more

I got a taco salad with El Pastor Store. It was fantastic. The people that work here are so friendly and even the music is nice.

I am extremely dissatisfied with my entire experience today. This establishment has been my go-to spot for authentic Mexican cuisine for years. I stopped in for a quick meal and ordered a burrito and some tacos. My husband noticed the server taking a plate from another customer that had just been served and bringing it to my table. Upon inquiry, it turned out that the server mistakenly gave the previous customer our order. A slice of orange had already been eaten. When I questioned the server, she admitted that she had inadvertently given our order to them. When I tried to speak with the manager, I was told that they were not available, and when I asked if she could prepare another burrito, she seemed unwilling. After back n forth she was willing to make new order . I refunded my order but they lost my business for good and i am not recommending my friends and family anymore read more

Came in early on a Saturday while getting my car serviced across the street. The food was okay flavor-wise. I was more impressed with the portion sizes and service. I also like that they open so early. 9am! read more

I ordered a 2 green enchiladas combo plate with rice and refried beans for take out. When I got home there was no rice and beans! Then I try to call the restaurant to tell them that they fucked my order up. When they picked up the phone I told them that they messed it up. They said that they only charged us for the two enchiladas when I literally asked for the combo. The cashier did NOT even clarify our order at all. They told me that I would have to pay for the rice and beans even though it was a mistake on their end. I hope to see improvement from this restaurant! read more

This place is great. Good food, fair prices, great salsa, very nice staff. I would give it five stars but was a little bit noisy for my taste, but a lot of people seem like they enjoy it. read more

I ordered just a side of refried beans and they were delicious. Plus they gave me complimentary chips and some salsa cups. Heck I was halfway to nachos lol. read more

3 1/2 Stars I decided to try something different and ordered Chile verde. This was new to me. I typically order a combination plate when visiting Mexican restaurants. It was prepared well and you received generous pork portions. Although I probably wouldn't reorder it again because I would favor other things on the menu it's a entree that surely will fill you up. It was accompanied by 4 tortillas. You can choose between flour or corn. It is good to try different fare. read more

Although the food is a little pricey the quality is quite good. Although we had take away the service was fairly quick.

My husband and I discovered this neighborhood restaurant yesterday! What a find! The BEST huevos rancheros I've ever had. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The portions are HUGE - 3 meals for me and the prices are user-friendly! We will definitley make return trips to this fantastic restaurant! read more

I'd never been here before and it was just delicious! I had chicken enchiladas a la carte and ate it for two meals as it was loaded with tasty, tender grilled chicken, melted cheese and sour cream, and tasty mole enchilada sauce. Friendly staff, happy people, lots of choices on the menu. I'll be back! read more

Very friendly service from cashier as well as the chefs. Yummy taco salad and steak burritos. I'm glad this spot is in the neighborhood!

Well menudo is a dish can be overcooked and can give off odors if not prepared well. I tell you I asked if they had pata too. Man this experience was great. You have to love the simple dishes and can be elevated just on techniques. But one of my secrets of staying young is eating something rich in collagen. This menudo did not have hominy, but never been a fan of it, but to each their own. Service was great, greeted when walked in. Salsas typically like any taquerias are self served, but after ordering they bring your food to your table. Ambiance wise Spanish music was playing and if you closed your eyes you can image you are in Mexico. I speak Spanish as well and you can imagine it was great. Food was hot when it came, flavor was balanced and texture was cooked tender, when different firmness according to the pata or the tripe. I recommend it on a Sunday hangover morning. lol definitely gave the chef some accolades for his dishes. Muy sabroso!!! read more

This place has been here for a while and I have tried it a few times. I work really close to this place so it's super convienent when I want something quick and easy! The customer service is always great and although they are always busy around lunch time the food comes out fairly fast! I don't have anything bad to say about this establishment, I am only giving them three stars because I've just had more flavorful food from other Taqueria's. read more

Everytime I order something they never fail me always on point I really appreciate them and all that they do the love they put into their food is very evident in every bite very delicious next time I will get a picture read more

1st time customer, ordered a super chicken quesadilla. When I got home the quesadilla didn't have enough cheese & the chicken was falling out & the amount of guacamole & pico de gallo was not enough for my quesadilla, good thing I had gotten more pico de gallo @ salsa bar. I was only able to eat 1 part of quesadilla because I ran out of the sides. I felt like I got cheated because there was not enough cheese to keep the chicken inside. read more

I ordered a super carne asada burrito with everything but when you start biting it from the top there is no meat at all nothing but vegetables, rice and that's it. To find out the meat was all the way at the end of the burrito that was my first time there I've never had a burrito like that. When I finally got to the meat, it was literally at the end. read more

My all time favorite food. We usually order it a head of time and then we just have to pick it up read more

Really great local spot for Mexican food! This place was busy but they kept the line moving and the food came out fast. Dined in with several people and we didn't have to wait long for our food. They even deliver it straight to your table. And the FOOD! Omg, so filling, delicious, and perfect. Chips & so many salsas available of course. I got the super burrito, loved how they grill the outsides to give you a crispy crunch each time. Stuffed with ingredients and distributed evenly inside. So good I didn't even give myself time to take a photo! Totally recommend this spot to satisfy your cravings! read more

To be honest, I was first taken back when I saw the prices on their tacos and plates. They seemed higher than other tangerine nearby but when I got home I realized that their taco sizes are bigger. They are not the small street tacos that you can eat in 2 bites. The tortillas are around 6 inches in diameter and they really piled up the meat on the tacos! I had their al pastor, tongue and carne asad tacos, they were all really good! I really like thst they threw in a couple of grilled green onions and jalapeños! They are certs great condiments to the tacos! They also have a salsa bar with variety of salsa to choose from. All the salsas o took were really good! They are popular but service was very quick. I will certainly get food from this place again since the food was delish!!! read more
