    We had a great time. Our server was amazing. We were celebrating our parents 55th Wedding Anniversary. They brought us vivante non-alcoholic wine since they saw my parents don't drink.

    Wonderful breakfast/brunch venue. Obviously a neighborhood spot based on the mix of diners who were there on a Sunday. Not a budget place to eat, but rather a high quality restaurant with excellent service and food!

    Maya Del Sol has absolutely become our most favorite restaurant. The food is interesting, delicious and always piping hot. The servers understand the need to be GF and know the menu well in that regard and I’m grateful that in addition to knowing the GF details alert the kitchen on my behalf. I love that there are different price points from $30 entrees to many options in the $20’s. All of the wait staff and bussers are friendly and attentive. They always check back in after the food has been served!
