Maria Bonita in Berlin

I wanted to show this place to friends because I really enjoy eating there. The two waitresses are unfortunately very unfriendly. We pointed to the paper menu three times. They then ordered the wrong thing, which wasn't a problem, but I received aggressive looks and had to point to the paper menu several times. We were told several times that next time we should please just point. I thought I could enjoy the food now, but then the food arrived and I was given another reproachful look. Somehow, the waitresses are wrong in the restaurant industry. What a shame!

Great! Authentic Mexican cuisine and for such a small shop, I still find it cozy!

Incredibly good! The tacos are addictive!

We tried tacos, chilaquiles and horchata. The place is quite small but the food is authentic and tasty. Recommended!

BEST TACOS AND MEXICAN FOOD IN WHOLE BERLIN!!!

Best tacos and burritos in town. Even my Mexican wife says so.

Best tacos in town! If only the store were a little bigger :/

Food is ok. Did receive the wrong order though

Really incredible Mexican food in a trendy area! Pretty much everyone loves Mexican food but when Mexican friends personally recommend a place, like they did for this one, you already are going in to the place with super high expectations. The outcome? They were far exceeded! The quality of food here and the variety (but simplicity) of the menu is truly top-notch! The decor is wonderful too with vibrant colours and Mexican culture surrounding you. The stickers they offer up too are trendy reminders of the great time you'll have here and we loved all their sauces, many of which are totally complementary! The service was strong and well-paced, even with a long line in the cold, we were able to take in the great atmosphere of this little Mexican find and the food arrived promptly and didn't just taste incredible, but looked beautiful too! Would absolutely recommend this masterclass location for your Mexican food fix!

Most Mexican food in Berlin is pure slop. The chips are tostitos, the salsa has corn in it, and they think that a hard shell taco is an appetizer. This place is the real deal and frankly, their challenge is that the place is so small, they are limited on their menu options. I'm just hoping that the owner sees all of those empty little storefronts near Oranienburger Tor and decides to open a new spot there. Hint. Hint. Hint hint.

Authentic Mexican! super good! Best in Berlin

I went 4 years ago and I didn't think it was bad. Today I came back and the food was horrible. The pozole without broth and without tasting like pozole, the carnitas and asada tacos served with yesterday's tomato cut on the side, with the onion cut very large on the side so that you can put it with your hand, without cilantro, without lemon, and with a tiny sauce without any flavor. Tortillas unmade and tasteless. The truth is horrible

The food is totally greasy. Tomatoes were mushy. Guacamole didn't taste like anything. It seems like no effort is being made anymore. I have no idea why the place is so hyped. At least it's not that expensive.

The food is very tasty and fresh. We had one burrito per person, but it didn't fill us up. If the portions were larger for the price, everything would be perfect.

Authentic. It's worth it. The price is still ok.

One of my favourite Mexican places in town now!

Delicious tacos, nice atmosphere.

Super rich and very nice place. It's a shame I didn't take photos but the place is totally worth visiting. Many good wishes to the venue and staff.

The roast beef tacos were delicious, only they had to add pico de gallo to each taquito 🥲 they put it on one side and I missed it 🤭 unfortunately the space is limited

Super tasty, but also very greasy… but also super tasty. Best burrito I’ve found in the city. Much closer to authentic flavours than the usual spots in Berlin. Absolutely worth a try.

Delivery was disastrously packaged and arrived as a leaking soup.

The place and the ambience are “well”: so typically “Alex”. The staff is attentive and friendly. My mojitos were quite good, but without the wow factor...

Simply excellent Mexican cuisine in a restaurant that is a bit too small. Here you can order your food in seemingly all languages ​​and bridge the waiting time with a delicious margarita.

Super delicious food, always happy!

Delicious chicken and beef quesadillas. Simple, small but well-designed menu, fast and utterly scrumptious.

Food here is SO delicious. Definitely coming back again. Best Mexican food I have had in Germany

Crazy good Mexican street food. Awesome service. Nothing left to say :)

great Mexican food- simple but good- lovely service

Exactly what one expects to find as authentic tacos, good flavor, good tortilla, the place is small and has no bathrooms. But it's worth it.

Tacos with pork and chicken were decent and authentic, but the beef version was unfortunately tough. Otherwise nice but very tight for sitting when you don't have to stand.

I first discovered MB in 2012, the food was good, authentic, and the atmosphere was open and welcoming. Most were from Spanish speaking countries, but it was still a nice mix of international staff. I've eaten there many times through the years, and always recommended it to and brought friends, especially those familiar with good Mexican. That's still pretty hard to find in Berlin. It was the same owners most of that time until a few years ago, when a German owner took over. Germans like to go for authenticity in a peculiar type of way, and I found now it was a mostly Mexican staff, I couldn't tell about the waitress. As a long time resident of Berlin (and Europe) and as a Black Native American who has worked in other restaurants, having all one type of crew can present its own issues if you are undereducated on bias and prejudice. The last time I visited in August 2024, the waitress literally ignored me, walked around me, didn't respond to me in any way. Since she did, the grillers looked at me and did the same. I did not feel welcome, it was a smiling type of antagonism and entitlement to greet and take care of certain customers and ignore others. Just poor behavior imo, business and personality-wise. Any customer who walks into a restaurant should be greeted by staff. They were not even busy, yet they immediately spoke to and took the orders of Anglo or Mexican looking customers who came after me. I walked back outside, and another person who was selling drinks for MB for an event started talking to me, and later brought me out some food. I would never recommend this place again. The owner has things to answer for as does his staff.

Bottomless... just wanted to eat a few tacos while relaxing in Berlin. As soon as I entered the place, the 4.6 star rating was a bit suspicious. The food we got was just disgusting. I can't say exactly why that was, but I wouldn't even feed it to my dog ​​because the tacos tasted bad and smelled in the store (not good). If you want to try it, you can be prepared that the taste will adapt to the ambience of the hole

The sweet potato quesadilla was really nice.

The vegetarian burrito tastes really great. Ordered with cheese, received without cheese. But hey, mistakes can happen. The guest room is very small. There are few places on stools. I can definitely recommend the store!

I love the Margaritas there and the tacos are super yami! I love that place

Don’t see the hype. Poor tasting and oily burritos. My beef burrito had entirely raw pieces of meat in it and I’m pregnant - huge health hazard!

I ate a beef burrito today and unfortunately I have to say it wasn't edible. The meat was so disgustingly stringy and tough that it was inedible. I often eat chicken there. Can't recommend the beef.

Delicious tacos and other things.

Great atmosphere and music, good food, but no toilet and only outside seating

Food always tastes great. Very authentic Mexican food!

Wasn't really mine. It tasted very boring. Kind of monotonous. But price is cheap

Their chilaquiles and agua de horchata are fantastic! Services is generally great. The only downside is there is not much sitting area (indoors). Other than that, this is one of my favourite spots for Mexican food. Check us out - @osofoodies

Nice but not the best in Berlin. It's also too small and without toilet.

The carnitas tacos are spectacular - I missed spicy hot sauces.

Wonderful food, fast and friendly service

Tacos like in Mexico. It couldn't be better 👍

The shop is an absolute food tip. Mexican food has rarely been eaten so well in Germany

Barbecue tastes like Mexico. Congratulations!!

Half street food half restaurant: perfect for a quick meal, with quite some standing tables and a couple of bigger tables with seats. The vegetarian quesadilla was very rich and yummy, much appreciated after a workout. I liked that each shape (taco, burrito, quesadilla) comes in a meat or vegetarian version. Prices are around 9-11€ per portion, which is fair.

What beautiful people, good treatment and good food.

The taccos were a little soggy but okay. But the beef burrito was completely over salted and didn't taste like anything other than salt. The nachos don't look nice because of their dark color, and the guacamole with them contained almost half avocados and was unfortunately too salty. And the large portion is too expensive at 10 euros! Otherwise you pay for it gratinated with cheese plus guacemole, beans, crema and tomatoes. The crema we ordered, which costs extra, was missing despite payment. No complaints could be made about the pickup. But for 32 euros in total, not recommended, sorry, even if the service (order takers and chef) are really friendly ..

Burritos tasty but kinda hard to eat. My tortilla was completely soggy and therefore I couldn't eat it with my hands. Margaritas are delicious but too expensive.

Very yummy mexican food for a reasonable price. Will definitely go back

Super! Not fancy at all. Good this way. And very tasty. Price completely okay. Really really tasty.

Carnitas tacos with cheese very greasy. Barely tasted the meat. I have the feeling it used to be better there. Price performance is good, drinks too. Margarita a bit expensive. Unfortunately no toilets.

Their carnitas tacos were delicious, the guacamole and the tortilla chips...🤌🏻✨ The horchata water and the margaritas were also incredible. I think it's my new favorite restaurant 💕 The only bad thing is that it is hot if you eat inside, but they have tables outside. I will definitely return

With all due respect, I have rarely eaten something as disappointing as this "burrito" and "quesadilla." After just two bites I had to stop. This has absolutely nothing to do with Mexican food. An unappetizing mixture of beans, chicken and cheap cheese wrapped in an industrial ready-made bread - and this is supposed to be Mexican food?

Highly recommended! Very authentic Mexican food...had chilaquiles rojas and agua de Jamaica (not too sweet for my taste). And it was no problem leaving out the cheese and replacing it with beans 😊❤️ Unfortunately no toilet because it is a small shop.

With perfect Margaritas and good vibe it's my favorite Mexican food in Berlin

Great food but keep in mind it is a quite noisy place and be prepared to wait for your food - but it is really worth waiting for.

Love it! My favorite Mexican restaurant for many years!

Super nice staff and recommended tacos to me that were really good (chicken with cream). The chips with guacamole were also very tasty

The best Mexican street food in Berlin!

I come here a lot with my friend for burrito or taco night. Service can be a little slower when busy but it's always worth the wait. The margaritas are fun and perfect for when it's hot

Really delicious tacos 🌮 and quesadillas 👍🏻

If you want to have a great burrito and quesadilla, then come here! Very tasty, there are queues, but the staff gets it done quickly! Everything is very delicious! I recommend it to everyone 🫶🏻

Definitely one of the best places where to get actual mexican food in Berlin.

Deli deli! Authentic Mexican tacos in Berlin! I was very happy to be able to eat some real tacos and chilaquiles with their respective hibiscus water :) and at decent prices. The only thing I didn't like is that they only use disposable plastic cups :( nothing eco-friendly

Authentic and delicious Mexican food at a fair price! Even though you often have to wait a little longer for your food in the evening, the food never disappoints

The food is spectacular. The best Mexican I've ever had. The carnitas quesadilla left me speechless. I will return without a doubt!

Good Mexican food but a little too fatty for me

A very cute little bistro where everything seems to be homemade. The price is not exactly cheap but still completely reasonable. The staff was super nice and also brought out your food. I can only recommend the vegetarian tacos, they were very tasty and no food was too spicy for sensitive people.

Very good food, very friendly staff!

Not authentic, and service sucks. Still the food is better than average. With a little encouragement this place could shine.

Fantastisk mat, ypperlig service. Rene smaker, vel verdt turen! Vi spiste buritos, taco og quesedillas. Maten smakte helt nydelig, rask service!

Small shop with character, always busy, and great food. Portions are big enough and full of flavor. Great!

Value for money, friendly staff

The food was amazingly scrumptious, and the service was really good. The only drawback that I felt was that the place was a little cramped.

Better than most Mexican restaurants in the area

Absolutely delicious Mexican food in Berlin. Meat and ingredients were high quality. Portions were satisfactory and prices were reasonable. Definitely recommend the carne asada tacos with cheese. Will come back.

Very tasty and authentic food with changing creations. Very good margaritas.

Excelent place to eat Mexican food. Nice flavor and great service, definitely will come back :)

Terrible service from the cashier girl, her arrogant and rude attitude completely ruins the moment and the appetite

These guys know what there doing ! The food is always really tasty and delicious. No matter how busy they are it’s always the same!👍👍

Have been coming here for the last 3 years and the food is always consistent and super tasty. There was a misunderstanding with the order and the waiter gave some tacos on the house, amazing customer service. Definitely the best Mexican in Prenzlauer Berg

Great food, nice people, only downside is sitting right next to Danziger Str. Sure bet for Mexican/Latam food in Berlin.

The establishment was splendorous, the food divine, and the experience unforgettable. Truly a sight to see with ones own eyes and to taste with ones own mouth. Bravo, hats off🎩

Super delicious food. Super nice staff took their time. Very tastefull. Parking very difficult. Price-performance ratio a bit too expensive for me. For 3 tacos 9€. But in terms of taste it was one of the best things we ate in Berlin.

Super delicious food, authentic atmosphere, very nice service and good advice. Absolute recommendation, would love to come back.

Very cool shop with a lot of variety and cool service) just awesome) Food😊

Very, very good authentic Mexican cuisine

I wish I had found this place the last 2 times I was in Berlin. As an American living in Munich for the last 8 years, my endless search for even mediocre Mexican food in Munich was…and still is endless. Maria Bonita is an oasis in the middle of a desert. The staff at the restaurant are friendly and caring, the food is an 11 out of 10, and the prices are reasonable. I had the carnitas tacos, carnitas quesadilla, and the frozen margarita (grapefruit) across the two visits I made this week. If I had the time, I’d go back again. I still have lunch today…

Really delicious tacos, which are always freshly prepared. On average you pay €10 for 3 tacos each. You can choose from chicken, pork and beef. There are always specials too. The tacos tasted really great. It was also worth noting that it went very quickly, even though the store was full.

A nice Mexican bistro to have a quick bite. It's easy to reach, next to a tram stop. The food is good, the prices are normal. Nothing mind blowing or wrong. It's a small place. There is limited space inside and it's hot. There are tables outside but it can be challenging in the summer due to the scorching sun. There are not many trees to cast a shadow. It's a convenient bistro to eat something quick and move on. If it aligns with your expectations then nothing disappointing.

Best Tacos I had so far in Berlin, also quesadilla and chilaquiles are very good

Very nice, authentic Mexican food but very few places to sit

A matter of taste. We ordered a burrito with chicken and taccos with chicken as well. Meat was very mushy and didn't look tempting. The burrito wasn't tasty either. My daughter usually loves it, but she didn't like it either.

Small yet delicious Mexican place, has many options also for vegans..

We had a wonderful meal there. All tasty and abundant. The margaritas are very good. The waiters are super friendly.

Nice atmosphere and super tasty tacos.
