I recently tried Guerrero Maya for the first time with a close friend, and it was such a wonderful surprise! We chose this restaurant after seeing their beautiful food photos and large seafood selection — and they absolutely delivered.
I’m a big fan of crabmeat, and their menu featured it in several delicious variations. I ordered the enchilada de jaiba, and it was fantastic. My friend Lisa had tacos that went above and beyond the typical taco experience — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
The atmosphere was clean, simple, yet very festive — kudos to whoever designed the decor! Service was excellent, and the menu is impressively extensive: lunch and dinner options, vegetarian choices, combination plates, and even a kids’ menu.
As a tequila connoisseur, I have to mention the 1800 Margarita, available in three sizes. I went with the medium, and it was perfectly balanced and delicious.
The portions were generous (we both had plenty to take home), and every bite was worth it. I’m thrilled to find such a gem so close to home — but honestly, I’d travel far to enjoy their food again.
I’m not an overly fussy person, but as a retired restaurateur and chef, I know great food and great service when I experience it. Guerrero Maya should definitely be your next stop for a remarkable dining experience!

Swung by this place for a quick date night with my fiancé and can confidently say we found our new favorite restaurant in Sanford. The birria tacos were the best birria I’ve ever had and the quality of food and presentation was outstanding. The service went above and beyond what we expected and the ambiance was perfect for any occasion. So happy I found this place, highly recommend!

You know when people say they really wanted to like a place? I really truly wanted to not just like but love this place. Sanford is a bit of a forgotten town in the area, and I was hoping to have a reason to drive out here. But at least the night we went (tonight, Monday), we left disappointed.
First the building itself is incredibly cute. Right in downtown Sanford, the owners have clearly taken care in making an authentic feeling experience. Our waitress was also incredibly sweet and kind, and was super responsive and quick. Unfortunatelly, the food was downright terrible.
We ordered and the food showed up fast, like less than 5 minutes. At first I thought it was because the restaurant was almost empty but even then… I quickly realized why. The whole plate- chicken enchilada, chile relleno, beans and rice- just had an orange cast like it had all been sitting under a heat lamp waiting for some time for someone to just order it. The enchilada cheese was dried up, the tortilla was tough and also dry, and the chicken tasted slightly off. The chile relleno was only nominally better; it was soggy, watery, rubbery and lacked flavor. Like the enchilada, it definitely did not seem freshly prepared. The red sauce that came with both dishes tasted like ketchup, to be entirely honest. I ended up taking just a few bites of each and calling it quits. Usually, I can at least depend on refried beans but here it was clear the oil or fat being used had started to go rancid and tasted stale and off. My husband thought his burrito was passable, but not good.
The margarita was serviceable, made with a mix, as most restaurants are. Not particularly strong and the rim had sugar instead of salt. which is weird.
Since coming home, my stomach has also been rather upset.
I lived in Austin for almost 20 years, and have learned to temper my tex mex/amerimex expectations, but Guerrero Maya left me more disappointed than I’ve found myself in a while.
I do hope I just hit them on a bad night and others tend to have better experiences, but for the drive I made to come here, not to mention the very high price point, there are much better (and cheaper) places along 95 in Portland and Portsmouth.

Thursday night, 6:00 we arrived for dinner and there were only 2 other tables, so we were a little concerned, but it was all for nothing. The drinks were great, lots of choices, and the margaritas come in 3 sizes which is nice. The sopa de pollo was so yummy – fresh veggies, lots of juicy chicken. But the whole fish was the star of our table, and the reason we came back to begin with. Carnitas perfecto. Service was a bit slow, but friendly and accurate. The complimentary little dessert at the end was a pleasant surprise.

Food was excellent!
The new york strip steak was so flavorful and juicy, would say it is comparable to 50-75$ steak and for around 25$. All the veggies were so fresh and the portions were good sized, definitely didn’t leave hungry! Staff was fast and friendly!

Guerrero Maya is an absolute gem! We had such a fantastic experience here. Five stars across the board for a reason: the food was outstanding. The carne asada, cooked to perfection. The service was wonderfully attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was both warm and inviting.
It’s the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend for a memorable meal out. We’ll definitely be back!

This is the best Mexican food experience I have had anywhere in Maine! Instantaneous chips, salsa, and water. Which, by the way, is super cravable. I am so hooked on the carne asada burrito. Every dish served seems more appetizing than the last. So far, every time is somehow even better than the last! This is our new favorite. Good luck to the competition.

Really excited to have a nice new restaurant in Sanford. This place was CLEAN and the staff was very friendly and attentive. My group all got small margaritas, which were so cheap! At the end of our meal we were surprised with a sweet treat as a thank you with the check! Fantastic touch. Can’t wait to return and support this business.

Such an amazing restaurant hidden in Sanford! The food made with care, the service spectacular, and the atmosphere convivial.
Two special shout outs:
1. To the Colombian coffee. Seriously, Dunkin’s eat your heart out. Didn’t need a drop of cream or grain of sugar.
2. The barrio (not sure on the spelling) tacos served with an out of this world beef consommé. A “French dip taco” that’ll blow your socks off.

It’s a good location with ample parking. The food and drinks were good. There was a mix up with our food and another patrons order. They figured it out. We got the bill and was charged for something that we didn’t order. They fixed that too. I would go back. It was a little more expensive than I expected.
