In Central Texas, you can throw a rock in any direction outside and hit a Mexican or Tex-Mex eatery, but at the fledgling Maria’s Mexican Restaurant, the goal is not to blend in.
Co-owners Maria and Scott Hall along with Maria’s daughter, Alejandra Palomo, and the rest of the Maria’s team plan to make their restaurant a place where people can not only enjoy great cuisine and drinks but also feel like family.
“We’re always here taking care of things,” Palomo said. “We like to think our food is really family-based.”
Maria’s opened around three years ago but Maria said she took over ownership of the restaurant in November.
