Pretty nice experience, excellent service and good food. It was by pure chance that I got here because I had to find a place open for dinner in the area after 9PM. Overall satisfied, and not too pricey. Starters may seem too expensive at first, but the portion size is above average. If you’re really hungry you may have both a starter and a main course, otherwise only the latter will be enough. Location is cozy and nicely decorated.

Quite frankly the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. Very sweet staff. Cozy ambience.

Prices, service and food quality was all fine. However, while it looked like Mexican food, the taste bore little resemblance to authentic Mexican. We had con queso, chicken fajitas and a Margarita.
Typically, con queso is served as a dip, but here it was lightly spread over a few nacho chips and was tasty enough, but nothing like a typical, authentic con queso.
The fajitas were served on a plate not a sizzling iron platter, as is the norm. The ingredients were fresh but the sauce, while flavourful, was oddly tangy and sweet, somewhat reminiscent of ketchup. The tortillas were served in a basket and were nearly crisp – they should be served in lidded container to retain moisture and their soft sponginess.
The Margarita was also tasty-ish but lacked the tangy, sweet flavour punch it usually has, and the rim was not salted but rather had what I believe was a lemon pepper coating.
Finally, the decor was pleasant but did not have a fiesta feel and the music was (I believe) fado inspired, lovely but didn’t add to an overall Mexican experience.
I would recommend tempering one’s expectations if one has a craving for genuine Mexican food.

Deeply disappointed by the management ethics here. True hospitality isn’t just about the food served; it’s about how the business operates behind closed doors. There is a disturbing disconnect between the public image they project and the reality of how people are treated within their system. I cannot support a business that lacks fundamental integrity. Proceed with caution

Friendly and welcoming, don’t expect real Mexican food. It is more the Santa Maria’s Mexican food experience a bit dull and tastless.
Nice, friendly and welcoming service.
The waiters where extremely helpful and attending,and we quickly got our table. from order to the starters arrived took very little time, and the starters where definitely the best part of the course. We tried most of them. But not really Mexican food bur more Mexican inspireret food, nachos, cheese and hot wings where quite good, but did lack the Mexican spices and flavours that the Mexican kitchen is known for.
Main course, where super boring, the Fajitas came with a very sad and small potion of rice, but the beef and the chicken fajitas where overcooked and tastless and I assume they where reheated in the microwave due the very hard and almost impossible to cut through tortillas.
Pollo picante was well cooked but very tastless, and a dull the guacamole was fresh and had a good texture.
All dishes where served with a sauce, but again with a very Santa Maria’s dull and blend taste.
Dessert was good we had both the banana split and the Mexican ice-cream both quite tasty and delicious.
All in all at bit tastless and sad sata Maria’s Mexican food experience.

The foods were truly average and came in a very small size. The prawn fajita has almost 5-6 prawn served with store-bought tortilla, while cost 249 kr!!!!! It comes with a lot of oily sauce and it doesn’t get served in typical iron cast pan!!
They have only two type of wines per glass, typical Chardonnay and Pinot noir which we didn’t see the bottle as the claim it’s a house wine!! The service was not excellent and they have forgotten several parts of our order. I wanted to give them averaged 3 star but at the couple of hours after the meal I got stomach problems, so I’ll give them 2 start.
The desert was very basic as it was a normal store bought ice cream.

The food was very salty specially the chicken when we told our waiter she said the chef said there is nothing they can do as it is marinated before!
Meat was tasty.
Drinks were very expensive.
All together very expensive for the quality.
They did not let my dog in the restaurant.
We had to leave the dog in the car!
As you can see even their response is arrogant!

Very nice small restaurant with very tasty fresh Mexican food. Living room vibe. Ideaal location if you look for an alternative for Nyhavn. Very friendly service and also a good place if you are travelling alone.

Client dinner that I paid for.
Good food. Bit pricey. Asked if we wanted guacamole with all meals… we said yes… paid 29dkk extra per person.
Asked for a glass of iced tap water and told tap water comes in cans… then sold San Pellegrino.
Small issue but a bit cheeky.

Was here on a Tuesday night for Fajitas and beers. As an appetizer we got chips with two kinds of salsa that where really good, fresh ingredients, as well as a salad.
For the main courses we had beef and chicken fajitas. The sauce that the chicken and the beef comes in was a sweet BBQ-ish sauce, and quite too much of it. Did not like that. But the side dishes were good, except for the salsa which was I thought was way too sweet. Asked to get it very spicy, which it wasn’t at all. Asked for extra fresh chili on the side twice, by the time I got it the food was getting cold….
The veggies in the fajitas were crispy and good, so if it hadn’t been for the sweet sauce it would probably be really good.
