0A STORIES THE EXPERIENCE SEND

The Experience, Richmond: Maya Taqueria Special

The Experience:

Best Breakfast on Railroad Ave!

Have you tried their chorizo scrambled egg platter? Complete with fresh pico de gallo, black beans and rice; tomatillo sauce and habanero-chipotle-tomato salsa on the side!

According to Mary Ann Van Cura, “This is the real deal – fresh, flavorful, all the right choices for those of us trying to eat healthy. Fresh ingredients and super service.” She loves the patio seating and the ingredients.  And next time she’s “…coming back for vegan selections and salad.”

Fans also rave about their chicken, pastor, shrimp and fish tacos. They do not disappoint.  If you like slaw and crema on your fish tacos, this is the place. Tiny as it is, efficiency and quality is big.

 Maya chicken salad is always a big hit and a great option when you want to eat lighter. Vegetarians have options – veggie tacos, butternut squash burritos and more! Try the tortas and you won’t regret it. Made with fresh local ingredients and mucho amor. Family run and a warm welcome. Daily 10:30am-9pm (510) 374-6594
