Charming restaurant! It was busy for a Thursday so we sat at the bar. The margaritas were delicious-lots of fun options! We ordered the tacos: it was awesome we could pick the 3 we wanted. Prices were very reasonable, too! I’ll definitely come back if I’m in the area.

One of my favorite taco places. They have great apps as well but usually get the tacos here, especially on Taco Tuesdays. As a vegetarian, I’d say the avocado and cauliflower are the best, followed by the papas/potatoes. Friends like the chicken tinga and fish tacos as well. The happy hour and specials are awesome everyday. El president margaritas are strong!

Delicious food and very creative menu in a nice setting. I highly recommend. I had a combo of enchiladas and they were very tasty.

The food was great! It was packed and loud. Our wait time for a table for two was 45 minutes, so call ahead.

The food was wonderful! The service was mostly quite good, but we had to request extra napkins and drinks refills that I thought should have been offered automatically. The place is nicely decorated and cheerful, but the ladies’ room had a raised threshold that I stumbled on as I was entering. There were no warning signs or markings on the threshold to alert clumsy folks like myself to beware. Despite the minor issues, I will definitely eat there again. The food really is exceptionally tasty.

Been going to Maiz since 2018. They have the best tortilla chips I’ve ever had, light and crispy, just the right amount of salt. Also the tastiest street corn. Happy hour (9p-close) has become a weekly event; can’t beat half-price grande margs (12+ flavors), 25-oz drafts (always a sour on tap), and appetizers. The bartenders are attentive and awesome, the place is bustling and fun, and the staff and managers are friendly and good at what they do. We often see staff hanging out at the bar on their nights off, because they like being there; that says a lot about the place!

I’m going to make it a tradition – I’m coming here with my family every time my kid graduates from University of Michigan. Mediocre service but solid classic offerings. Come for the graduation but stay for the chips and salsa.

I visited Ypsi for the weekend, and this is one of the only places that stay open late. Im from California, so I often eat Mexican food, but this was hands down some of the best mexican food I’ve had. Everyone loved their meals. Thank you.

The wait wasn’t too bad, but there was still quite a wait for a weeknight. Check in online before you go. The guacamole was super creamy. The queso fundido was delicious. The thing I enjoyed the most were the chips, they were the thinnest, crispiest little dippers, absolutely delightful. The street corn was unremarkable, not worth the 2.99 in my opinion. The flautas were fine, but not unique or particularly well made. The toppings and presentation of the flautas made them attractive.
