Being from New Mexico, but living in Texas I wanted some good down home New Mexican food.
This is not the place for that. With the beef enchiladas anyway. Two corn tortillas with some ground beef sandwiched in between with sauce poured on top. That's not home cooking.
Home cooking the sauce and meet are cooked together. This place fell short. Including the service. Our waitress never checked on us until we asked for the check.response / report this review -

We really wanted to try something new while we were in town. Everywhere else had an almost 2hr wait on a Monday and we just couldn't do that. We were pleasantly surprised to get a short wait here at Maria's. They took great care of us and all the picky eaters were happy. Jesus was a great and attentive server!!. Enjoyed sampling a couple different margaritas too! Thanks Maria's!!!

It's a nice place. I only went once and had an enchilada with the chili aside as I asked for. It was good but to hot!! We went to celebrate a birthday and the staff was very attentive and sang for the girl who had the birthday Their Margaritas are very good!!

Ok, so what it's 5 stars for mediocre food; this restaurant has the most extensive Margarita menu I've ever seen. I'm serious; multi- page menu .of margaritas..in small print no less so bring your readers. Be aware that they will only serve you 3 drinks with a meal so if you are reading this do not even think of complaining or harassing their lovely staff over this policy. They offer a "Tuesday Club" that you can sign up for the sum of $10 (I think) which will provide you with discounts every Tuesday. This restaurant has local renowned for a reason; superior atmosphere & great margaritas.

I've lived in Santa Fé off and on for since 1972, and there is hardly a place to be found that continues its fine tradition as much as Maria's for good food at reasonable prices.
There is storied *history* here as well. Maria's is located very close to the original site of the *Territorial* Prison, established in 1850, that continued to serve as the *State* Prison until the mid-1950s. Maria purchased some prison bricks and boards and recycled them into her then-new restaurant. Be sure to ask where (in the since-expanded layout) to see them. If you're lucky, and a party of no more than 4, you may be able to score one of the two brick-lined booths in the bar. Also in the bar is a wall built from prison boards.
Do you like tequila? Maria's has more Tequilas than food items on its menu.response / report this review -

Back to a nice New Mexican Cuisine spot rather than the.dive bar that it was for a couple of decades. ( the reconversion took place several years ago but I'm new back in town after a long time and was pleasantly surprised. ) the menu is not pages and pages long but the food is good and the prices are reasonable. I'm glad I ventured in for a look once again. Some walls as in the photo I'm attaching are built of the red bricks from the Territorial Prison that was replaced in 1952 even though New Mexico had become a state in 1912.

We asked Google for a New Mexican restaurant near by, this did look promising. Not on the plaza, not full of tourists.. just a mom & pop Santa Fe restaurant.
Now some of the reviews say "Slow paced" umm, you can say that again! The waitress was slow. The bus guy was friendly and attentive I think He should have had the tip, he spent more time at our table than she did. The food was good. A regular let us know that the appetizeres were large enough for a meal, and she was right! We asked for our tab, and we finally got it we noticed our neighboring table still waiting to have his credit card brought back 5-10 min waiting so I suggested cash, and we paid exactly enough and left. Say hi to Randy, he sure was friendly and helpful!response / report this review -

Great New Mexican food in Santa Fe. If you are new to this kind of food they have a big combination platter with a few of their main dishes. It can easily feed 2 people. They also give you nachos and salsa as an appetizer. Try their red and green chile on the side if you can't eat spicy food.

Disappointing! After reading reviews, was really excited to try Maria's. Sadly, the service was extremely slow and some of the worst I've ever experienced in a restaurant. In the area we were seated, there were several unsatisfied diners who were visited by the manager. The manager never even paid attention to us guess we didn't complain like others. Terrible experience for a first time at Maria's. On a good note, the food is tasty when you finally get it delivered to your table.

Really good food, a bit pricey. They offer over 100 margaritas but we were driving and there for lunch so didn't get to try one.

Food was great. Both servers were super nice. However the bartenders had no clue what they were doing. For a place that boast that they wrote the book on margaritas, they are easily the worst I've ever had.
So for good eats, you need to try this place.
If your looking for good margaritas your better of going to Chili's.response / report this review -

Worst customer service we've ever experienced. Adding anything to our order was "impossible". We also filled our own waters, thank goodness we had an actual waiter dining with us.
