Tasty food with nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. We had a churros plate for dessert and I really recommend everyone to have it.

Feels like a regular stop when we head home Maya is located centrally in Helsinki and the food and cocktails are good. Had a Cuban paella which is very tasteful. For large eaters it may be a bit small though.

Have to say this was one of the biggest disappointments that I've had in recent history with restaurants. It was the "Eat with 10 euros" discount campaign that Helsinki has few times a year, so not the most premium of dishes, but the tortillas were super hard, they just cracked like tacos when you tried to eat them, full of cheese, barely any chicken and the taste was just cheese and more cheese and then some cheese.

They had some local craft beer, but sadly it was so old that I could not drink it and they did not have a replacement for it so I just left it there.

Other ate dessert too, which seemed to be the best part of their menu.

Service was ok.

(Seems that they have changed the menu since this visit, maybe it is better now, who knows)

Unlike in many comments here, we were served well! The food tasted absolutely great, too. Maybe somewhat small main dishes so I'd recommend appetizers.

Fabulous location for those coming or going to the railwaystation, or National theatre.
