I ordered the Carne Asada, which is usually my "go to" when I eat at a mexican restaurant. Wait time wasn't so bad. The chips and salsa were good too, the tortilla chips were crunchy and salsa was flavorful. But unfortunately, my Carne Asada fell flat. I asked the beef to be cooked at medium but the beef was tough and overcooked. I was surprised at how dry it was. There were some pieces of the beef that were decent, but overall just too overcooked and dry for me. It was pretty disappointing actually for my first time here. Service was great, they were attentive and checked up on us from time to time. I just felt like the Carne Asada price at $17.99 did not correlate with the quality of meat at all. The other sides were good, like the avocado, beans and rice. And the overall portion size was great too. But for the dish as a whole, I can't justify the price for that. I've been to other mexican restaurants in the area with better Carne Asada that I'd choose in a heartbeat. Despite that experience, I'd come back here but I'd definitely order something else.

Located on the end of a strip mall next to Food City, access is easy. There is parking adjacent to…read morethe building as well as across a traffic lane. Handicapped parking is near the front door. Walking in there is a divider directly in front. Turn right and there is a sign to wait to be seated. We had ordered ahead for pickup and were greeted as soon as we walked in. We were a little early from the time they said it would be ready but we only waited another couple minutes. The food was packaged in the typical foil tins with lid. Everything was hot when we got home. The carnitas was quite good. The meat was tender and moist with very little fat. Flavor was mild but still acceptable. The chili Colorado was cooked properly. The sauce had no heat which was a disappointment. The rice and beans accompanying each dish were sub par. The rice was flavorless and the beans were very bland. The lettuce and guacamole salad was fine. The guac was also very mild in flavor. Finally, the corn tortillas were disappointing. Very bland again with only two of the three being edible. The third was soggy on half and tough on the other. While this El Maguey provides passable Mexican-style food, there are several other restaurant choices available.

That being said, the last two times I went, the food was entirely wrong. One time, I was given entirely the wrong order. The next time, the quesadillas were missing all of the ingredients we paid extra for.

It wasn't the same as if it were prepared and cooked together. The owner is unhelpful and watches while his staff flounders.

We all ordered the same thing: the Mushroom Ravioli. It was absolutely delicious. The raviolis were covered in sauce and had parmesan and parsley sprinkled on top. Presentation was nice. I loved how creamy, yet light the sauce was. Also perfectly salted too. The Mushroom Raviolis were very flavorful, had a rich umami and savory taste to it. For my first dish here, it was very memorable. I'm pretty sure I was about to drink the sauce because I loved it haha. My only complaint is that I wish there was more. The dish had 6 raviolis. The ravioli was a decent size, but for the price I was expecting a little bit more. Despite this, I would come back again. I really enjoyed my food, it was a 4.5/5 for me.

Tonight was one of the worst experiences we've had here yet…read more There were three of us and our friend ordered a steak burrito and wanted red sauce instead of cheese sauce. Wanted the rice and beans in the burrito. They came in the burrito however they put cheese sauce on it and then charged him for a side of rice ($2), AND a side of red sauce ($3.50). The burrito was small and cold. My husband ordered the Hawaiian tacos, again, cold. I ordered the chicken tortilla soup which we had here a week ago and it was amazing. Tonight it was awful! I told the waitress and she didn't seem to care. It had an off flavor and I was afraid to eat it. It was only 8:30 and she was basically rushing us to pay and leave. On our way out she actually said " I hope the soup is better next time"! It's too bad this restaurant isn't more consistent and that a manager isn't checking in with the customers. This place could be amazing all the time if properly run.
