Located in the heart of downtown Napa, this quaint stucco restaurant serves authentic Mexican fare. The ample dining area is comfortable but a little dark. The amiable waitstaff keeps the chips coming even when the restaurant is crowded. The shaded patio, with its marble-topped tables and lawn-style chairs, is wonderful for people-watching. The menu features gargantuan burritos, a variety of enchiladas, and several combination plates as well as a decent selection of carnitas and seafood. You will find a full bar with great margaritas and a nice selection of beers.
It is hard not to notice the Mayan paintings and petite wooden tables. The Yucatan menu with European and Caribbean influences is sometimes spicy but can be modified to suit your taste. Prawns Diablo, rib eye steak and Maya carnitas are interesting entree choices. While Lime tortilla soup and Maya house salad are innovative culinary treats that tease your palate. Margaritas can be sipped at the Temple of Tequila which is an aptly named bar. Mayan memorabilia is also available at the restaurant.
