Authentic, delicious, and their tortillas are made in-house. Loved my carne asada. Will definitely be coming back.

The food was good and the service was nice the employees were very friendly

Truly the best Mexican restaurant! The tacos are always good and you get quite a bit of food for the price. Never a bad experience, very consistent! If you are wanting authentic food, definitely pay this place a visit. The rice and beans are delicious too!

It definitely tasted authentic. I really enjoyed the chips and salsa! I was sad it wasnt unlimited, but the first basket is free. Service wasn't on point and neither was cleanliness. I had a margarita and for the first time in my life I didn't finish it. My chicken fajita was delicious.....extra loaded with onion.

It was ok good food was good .....service could be better were out of all American beer wife was not happy with the margarita at all ..?Could stand to be cleaned up a bit more ?

First time visiting this place. After hearing good things (before covid), I thought let's try it. Well, I got the empanada and rice. The rice was good. The empanada was steak and had queso cheese. Kinda flavorless but still decent. My kids had chicken nuggets and fries. The nuggets were over cooked and the fries had no flavor and looked overdone as well. The mello yello was flat.However, the dining area was clean. The details on the table and chairs were amazing! Such beautiful artwork.The women's bathroom was a mess. I had to wipe down the toilet seat because either someone definitely missed or it was water, but wasn't taking the chance. The sink counter was covered in water. Toilet paper all over the floor.The service was okay. Not what you would get at a more famous restaurant. The lady was nice.My reasoning for 3 stars? I'm not much for mexican food. Its a decent place, but definitely could use some more energy.

Great food. I was going for my usual afterwork. However they were closed saw they were open went through the drive thru. The food was absolutely spectacular. Whether you want traditional Mexican food or some of the americanized staples. They got you. Service was top notch as well.

Today's visit was horrible!!!It was packed...yes..understandable.. you wait 25 minutes for 2 glasses of water and a coke..and she forgot 1 water. Then a total of 45 minutes to order then to find out 15 minutes later.... Ya no ay menudo!!! Like what heck..Could you have told me this when you found out?This female had the never to tell me NO!!She lucky I paid for the coka!!So we go to our original spot. Drinks within 6 minutes and food withn 15. Even being a packed place as well!Pictures are from taco Rico...El Maguey ??Taco Rico ? ?

Was not a good experience from the start. We had a group of 7. Took at least 10 minutes to get water, people got food but no silverware, had to ask for it at least 5 times. No orders we correct with what we ordered. Not a very friendly staff. When it came time to pay we waited for the check, no one told us we had to take care of it at counter. Was told we didn't pay for 1 person which we did and had the receipt to prove it. Very bad experience.

Amazing food! Authentic Mexican cuisine and atmosphere. If u r short on your Spanish, they speak English.
