Visiting from Ohio. After stopping by a few other Mexican restaurants in the area, who were either closed Sundays, had an hour wait, or seemed unusually slow to be any good, we came across Dona Maria's. My dad and I both ordered combo plates, and the server was nice enough to allow us to substitute taquitos in the combo as an item, although it's not an option on the menu. The service was fast and friendly, and the food was exactly what we were looking for. Great guacamole. Enchiladas and taquitos were delicious. I ordered blended margarita with my meal and one on the rocks to-go when we got the bill. Nice and strong. Very happy with our experience!

My family and I were in the neighborhood and wanted a place to eat dinner. We found Dona Maria Mexican Restaurant and stopped in. The service was excellent! The salsa was delicious and the chips were warm and tasty. The food was great! We all chose something different and each of us enjoyed our meal. We will go again if in the area.

Chorizo and eggs , beans and rice . The chorizo is not all greasy. Good selection of mexican food. You can also ask for the Habanero salsa, if you like it hot hot hot . But be careful. My wife had a beef tostada . We've been here a number of times. I like that it's always clean and the food is top quality.
