Review Noche Maya - Gatineau

My wife and I tried this little hidden gem the other day. Noche Maya has a great view and a relaxing atmosphere to compliment it. It's a cozy little spot for a date or to go out with friends. My wife tried two of their cocktails. The first is a sangria called "Blue Lagoon" which was a bit on the sweet side for my taste. It had a wonderful balance of citrus and sweetness different from your typical sangria. It was a great drink to order on a hot day. The second was your typical "Bloody Ceasar" which was very good. It was not too spicy, still had a kick thought, and there was not too much Worcestershire sauce. As for the food, we tried the Mexican chicken wings called "Alas de Pollo" the wings were juicy and tender. The wings paired well with mayo due to the spices used. The only comment I can make about this dish is the sauce honey sauce they served was not very tasty. Next, my wife tried the "Enchiladas" served with a chocolate sauce, rice and salad. Now I am not a fan of chocolate and meat together, but they did an excellent job. It does have an acquired taste, so be ready to try something new. For myself, I went for a classic and ordered the "Burrito," it was perfect. The burrito did not have too much sauce or not enough. The ingredients were perfectly balanced, and the beef was perfectly cooked (It was still pink!!). Like my wife, my dishes also were accompanied by the same salad. It was a green salad with a light and fresh vinaigrette made with herbs, and to top, it had tomatoes and onions. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a cozy little date spot or to relax with friends. The food and drinks are delicious and worth the price. The service is a bit slow at times, but if you're looking to stay and enjoy a nice patio look no further.

Nice little Mexican restaurant along Jacques Cartier. Nice spot to enjoy the summer and watch the sun set. Friendly service and ok food.

Nice place, great patio, clean and friendly staff. View on the river. Menu is limited and did not have desert. Was great evening and experience. Sangria and daiquiri, entrees. I will go back just for tacos. Has burritos and chimichangas.

Not exactly a huge fan of Mexican food myself, I really liked this place. Fresh and juicy, the meals were great, and so were both red and white Sangria's. View of the Ottawa River definitely added to enjoyment of our visit too!

The food is Amazing! Best Mexican place!The ambiance is awesome! The owner Luis is a gem! & the views from patio are incredible!😍

Good service and delicious food in addition to the gorgeous view from their terasse.

Amazing so good unreal like being in Mexico this is the place to be with the terrace outdoor eating and great music amazing.!!

1st time there on a Sunday early evening. My friend and I were greeted nicely. Julie our waitress greeted and welcomed us promptly. We received our bucket of beers in no time. We ordered half chicken half beef nachos. The well sized order got to our table in about 20 minutes. We mentioned to Julie that the nachos had only chicken on them, she apologized and immediately went to the kitchen and returned with some. The music and ambiance was nice and the view along the river is absolutely splendid! Will go again.

Really enjoyed our meal here on Saturday night. Small place with a nice view of the river. The quacamole was fresh with plenty of tacos and the burrito and chimichanga were both v tasty. The mains came with a generous green salad with cheese. Service was friendly.

Beautiful location. We ordered fajitas and quesadilla and they were amazing. A pitcher of sangria was a perfect addition and it was perfect to the taste. Friend service:). Definitely the restaurant I'll be visiting again.

Ordered Chimichanga very good. The salad was crisp and tasty.
