Server by title. Psychic, therapist, photographer, doctor and Flash by demand.

Our team does it all and somehow still brings your food with a smile. If you've ever called your server over for "just one more thing" five times in a row… this one's for you.

We wear many hats at Doña María. And we love every single one.
Tag a server who deserves a raise. Or tag yourself if you're that customer. We still love you.

You're not ready for what Neriza just made.

Watermelon. Cucumber. Libélula Tequila. One glass and you're somewhere in Jalisco with no return ticket.

Our June Drink of the Month just dropped and it's the kind of margarita that makes you cancel plans and order a second round. Crisp, fresh, and dangerously easy to drink.

Pair it with our mahi mahi tacos and honestly… good luck leaving.
Only available this month. Once June is gone, so is she.

Come try it before your friend posts it first.

⏰ Last call for the Raspberry Cantarito!⁠

May is almost over, which means our Raspberry Cantarito is about to take a final bow. ⁠

If you haven’t tried raspberry simple syrup, Milagro Tequila, fresh lemon, Sq**rt, and that Tajin rim this is your sign. Don’t be the one scrolling past this in June wishing you’d come through.⁠

The clock is ticking. ⁠
The drink is pouring. ⁠
The table is yours.⁠
Run, don’t walk! ⁠

34 years. Same tamales. Same love.

Gabriel has been walking through our doors since before some of you were born, and he's still coming back. That's not loyalty you can fake. That's Doña Maria's.

From the menudo that hits differently on a Sunday morning, to the chips and salsa you'll keep reaching for, to the tamales made the way abuelita intended. Every plate carries a story.

No reservations needed. Just show up hungry.

We owe you an apology. A real one. 🫔

Sorry for hand-rolling every tamal like it's the only one that matters. Sorry for using the same family recipes for over 45 years without changing a single thing. Sorry for importing our chiles straight from Mexico when cutting corners would've been so much easier.

We could've done less. We chose not to.
Doña Maria Tamales. Since 1980.

This is NOT your average cocktail.

The Raspberry Cantarito just entered the chat and it’s staying all May. House-made raspberry syrup, fresh lemon, Milagro Tequila, a splash of Sq**rt, and a Tajin rim that ties it ALL together.

Sweet. Spicy. Refreshing. The drink you didn’t know you needed.

Save this for your next night out and tag your +1!

She's still talking but there's tajín on the rim so honestly nothing else matters right now.

Not all tequilas are created equal. This one was made for this drink.

Our Raspberry Cantarito isn't just refreshing, it's built on a foundation of Milagro Tequila. We hand-picked this one for a reason: it’s smooth, citrusy, and the perfect match for house-made raspberry simple syrup and fresh lemon. One sip and you'll taste why it all comes together.

This isn't just a cocktail. It's a whole experience.

Don’t miss it. Only here during May.

Some things just belong together.
Our Raspberry Cantarito sweet, spicy, and ridiculously refreshing paired with our Tostada de Ceviche is the combo you didn’t know your taste buds were begging for.

Fresh ceviche. Tajin-rimmed cocktail. A Vegas afternoon. That’s the whole plan.

Cinco de Mayo at Doña Maria? That was just the warm-up.

The mariachi was loud, the tamales were perfect, and the vibes? Unmatched. If you were there you already know. If you weren't… You missed out!

But here's the thing, the fiesta isn't over.

Mother's Day is right around the corner, and this time Mom doesn't lift a finger. No cooking. No cleaning. No "I'll just make something quick."
Not on our watch.

This is her day to sit back, enjoy every bite and let us take care of everything. Just like she's always taken care of everyone else. And YES… the mariachi will be at our Summerlin location to serenade Mom.

She deserves a plate she didn't cook, a drink she didn't pour, and a song dedicated just to her.

Come celebrate las mamás the way they were always meant to be celebrated.

Water has NOTHING to say… But tequila? Tequila is the life of the party, the DJ, and the dance floor all in one glass.

We ran a finger across both rims and let's just say… only ONE of them knew the assignment. This is your sign to stop playing it safe this weekend. Ditch the boring sips and come raise a glass of something that actually has a personality.

TAMALES has the tequila. We have the vibe. All we're missing is YOU.

AI can enhance photos, write captions, and create trends… but it still can’t make a tamal like this. 🫔✨

At Doña Maria Tamales, every dish is handmade, authentic, and crafted with generations of tradition. Because some things technology just can’t replace, like flavor, family, and recipes made con amor.
