Maizal South American Street Food

We were encouraged to order on the pad. However, there was no way to order the cheese quesadilla . My niece wanted only cheese. You could order the vegetable and add things but not subtract. The guy was on his phone and not helpful. We left to get my food at another vender. Afterward we returned. Now there were several people and we had to wait. I ordered from the guy verbally for my niece. It came in a box. I tasted it and thought it was delicious. She also liked it. It wasn't greasy or soggy. The tortilla part was firm and the cheese was perfectly melted. It came with salsa and sour cream on the side.

Ok, but disappointing given what it could be! I got the chicken empanadas and a chicken bowl. The empanadas were good, with and without the sauce. The chicken bowl was really lacking in flavor. It had all of the components of a really good meal, especially with the plantains, but there was minimal spice and flavor. To get through the bowl, I ended up having to add the leftover empanada sauce to the bowl, but even that wasn't enough. My friend got a burrito and it was like 80% rice with similar flavor issues. I would be happy to return if they made the food taste better. It's a nice location, they have a good ordering system, and the menu has a large variety of options.

AWESOME spot. Wish i could replace all of the chipotle/qdoba's with Maizal. Highly recommend

Popped in for a quick bite with a friend after a fitness class. We ordered an assortment of items including empanadas, churros, and one other item which I can't remember. Our order came out one item at a time but they did not communicate that it would. We went up to the counter two times looking for the rest of our order. The food was okay. I'm not sure if I'd try this place again.

Maizal needs a Venezuelan or maybe even a Colombian to teach their staff to make arepas. To cite one example, the arepas need to have a crust so that the filling can be held inside like a hamburger and not have the entire arepa fall apart when the customer tries to take a bite. I look forward to updating this review in the future.
