“ Delicious Agua frescas (sadly no more watermelon, Agua de sandia?). I ordered the chicken and potato taquitos which came with sour cream and cheese but told them to add Chipotle sauce and cilantro which was very good! ”
“ Delicious! The elote cup was enormous. I came back for a slice of cheesecake and corn cake to go after trying the sample. ”
“ I just ate a Papa Elote (mashed potatoes w corn and lots of cheese!!!) It is super delicioso! From heaven's menu The staff is super sweet, truly welcoming. While I was eating I was taking to Maria, Erendida y Viviana. This place is like home, I saw with my own eyes that they re meals are make from scratch. Truly, a profound delicious experience ”
“ I LOVE elote, so when we drove my Maizz I was excited and came back a week later hungry. I didn't know what to order since everything is essentially elote flavored. I went with the traditional corn on the cob (elote stick). It was covered in deliciousness, but it got all over my face as I ate it. Not a date food. My husband got the carne asada smothered elote fries. The fries were a undercooked, but the meat was delicious as we're all the flavorings. We also got to try the deep fried corn ribs, and those were my favorite. ”
“ Stopped by this corn spot and loved it! The elote cup was tasty with the Cheetos perfectly seasoned and creamy. Also tried the corn cheesecake too, which was surprisingly good. Quick service and friendly staff. Will definitely come back! ”
“ What was once a copy/print store, and then sat vacant for years, has now transformed into a new establishment called Maiz. After a few months of their grand opening, we finally decided to stop by and check it out. It’s amazing to see street food take root as a brick-and-mortar restaurant. While we didn’t try any of their main dishes, we couldn’t resist their desserts—an Elote Cheesecake and an Elote Cake. Both were absolutely delicious! The cheesecake had a soft, creamy texture, while the cake had a more denser, more robust texture. They offer three topping options: Nutella, Dulce de Leche, and Condensed Milk, but I found both desserts to be perfect on their own. We already look forward to returning - not just for their desserts, but to explore their other menu items. ”
“ Best elote I’ve ever had. This was my first time here and I ordered elote on a stick with hot Cheetos, takis, house hot sauce, and Valentina on top. The corn was roasted perfectly and it all tasted amazing. At the time there were only two people working the store so it took a while to get my food but well worth the wait. Will definitely be coming back! ”
“ This place is a corn lover’s paradise! They offer an extensive variety of corn-based dishes, including elotes, corn cups, elote/corn cheesecakes, and corn ribs. I couldn’t resist trying their elotes and corn products, and they were absolutely delicious! The service is impeccable, and the place is beautifully decorated and spacious. If you’re in the area, be sure to visit and support this small business. ”
