Casa Maya

Located in a renovated Spanish home, Casa Maya Restaurant offers carefully prepared Mexican dishes from a simple meal of tacos to a full rack of spring lamb char-grilled and topped with a chorizo and red onion glaze. 

The Menu

Stop in at lunchtime for several varieties of mimosas or a classic bloody Mary (or one with tequila). Enjoy a fresh fruit salad, the "hangover meal," or the "Apocalypto torta."

Later, have a bite at the bar while listening to live music or dine at a table inside or out. Order the tacos with mahi mahi, octopus, shrimp, or skirt steak—each with an appropriate sauce and toppings. Choose appetizers such as fresh salsa made in-house, served with baked corn tortillas; peel-and-eat shrimp; ceviche; and raw or steamed oysters. Their soups and salads have a Mayan or Mexican flavor, and so do their entrees, which have a depth of flavors and textures. 

Casa Maya is known and celebrated for its innovative seafood dishes, and they also offer delicious meat and vegetarian options. After the meal, or your night on the town, stop by for one of Casa Maya's desserts, including their version of the traditional flan, accompanied by fresh fruit.

Their specialty cocktails have enticing names and intriguing flavors. Sit on their patio, sip a "Hibiscus Flowerita," "Smoke and Fire," or one of their signature sangrias, while listening to live music three to four nights a week.

The Restaurant

The building was originally a family home from St. Augustine's Second Spanish Period. The historic property was restored and converted into the Casa Maya Restaurant in 2015. The patio is large with seating, a small stage, and an L-shaped bar. There is dining inside on the first floor, and large parties can be seated on the second floor. You can make reservations online. 

Casa Maya also offers catering.
