Location, location, location…is definitely not what lures people to Maria, Dubai’s only authentic Mexican restaurant. It’s the tacos, stupid! And the quesadillas, burritos and other faves brimming with spot-on flavour – spicy, smoky and deep. Okay, so the squawking parrots are a bit much without any cerveza to soften the edges, but it’s fun coming to this neighbourhood-adored snack shack just the same.
