Mayahuel garners a stupendous 5 Stars on Yelp from 45+ reviews including:
"5 Stars all around. Will definitely be back. The place itself is super cute, with nice lighting and decor. Very cute date spot. Our server was amazing. He was so attentive without being overbearing, and was very respectful and helpful. LOVED our spicy margaritas. Strong with just enough spice. You're missing out if you don't check this place out!"
"I love everything about Mayahuel. From the name to the décor and most importantly the food. It's a bit of a well kept secret in the Astoria food scene but I expect that to change rather quickly. We tried a little bit of everything but the star of the night to me was the Tampiquena. Thoroughly enjoyed the chorizo and octopus tacos - it might be my new surf and turf. Every bite was an absolute explosion of flavor. There's no doubt in my mind that I'll be back to sample the entirety of the menu!"
"Can't go wrong with anything you order here. Get an order of elote + the skirt steak and you're set. The drinks are great, especially their Mayahuel drink. The ambiance is very lovely inside and it's great for a date spot. The service is nice and quick enough and I never felt pressure to hurry up. This is a great addition to the neighborhood!"
