Reseña de María la Bonita (Mercado de Jumeirah, Dubai) Comida: 🎉 ¡Auténtica y deliciosa! Los tacos de maíz (hechos a mano), el guacamole fresco y las quesadillas son impresionantes. Sabores bien logrados, ingredientes de calidad y presentación cuidada. Ambiente: Ubicado junto al río en el Mercado de Jumeirah, tiene una terraza agradable con vistas relajadas. Decoración mexicana moderna, buen lugar para una cena tranquila o un afterwork. Precios: Acordes a Dubai (no barato, pero justo por la calidad). Unos 80-120 AED por persona (≈ 20-30 €) sin alcohol. Lo mejor: ✅ Tacos al pastor y de carnitas (¡sabor auténtico!). ✅ Guacamole preparado en el momento. ✅ Buen servicio y ambiente festivo sin Conclusión: Uno de los mejores restaurantes mexicanos en Dubai. Ideal si buscas sabores reales (no adaptados al paladar local). ¡Repetiría sin duda! 🌮🍹 Tip: Pide un margarita o una cerveza artesanal para acompañar. ¡Y reserva antes en temporada alta se llena!

Came recommended but unfortunately didn't meet expectations. Just 2 vegetarian options was surprising for a Mexican restaurant. We had the quesadilla and fajitas. Not very flavorful. Service was average. The horchata was nice.
