We decided to give this place another try based on convenience to our location. Unfortunately you should be prepared for an unfriendly staff, and slow service. The menu is on par for Boerne, overpriced serving mediocre food. A pint of refried beans $7.50, served very runny, these are the bag of pre- cooked beans from a supplier, they evidently used an improper amount of water for reheating. The tortillas are $10.20 per dozen, which is hard to justify considering most places charge less than half that price for fresh tortillas. We also ordered their Mexican plate $15.99, the taco was served sitting in gravy-soggy shell, cheese enchiladas were okay at best, and again the beans were runny-watery. The chips obviously come from a bag, and many were broken into small pieces. The salsa was actually good, but served in squeeze bottles instead of bowls. This visit confirmed for us that it's worth passing up, despite the convenient location, I'd rather drive an additional 30-minutes farther to San Antonio where you actually get quality food made from scratch in-house at less than half the price with welcoming staff. Unfortunately, Boerne seriously lacks quality restaurant options, and this is just another example. read more

The food was very good. We had the CHILAQUILES... they were very good and they tasted awesome. The servers was outstanding. The service was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The ambience is a very friendly. People were enjoying their breakfasts and having quiet conversations. The decor is very pleasant and very Mexican . Love it. It's very tastefully done. I would highly recommend this place and feel that it is priced very reasonable. read more

We have been back several times and like it so much better now that we understand 'their system'. It is seat yourself at an open table, unless there is a wait. There is not a specific server assigned to your table - just make eye contact with any of them. They are always fast and efficient. The Fideo w/ Picadillo was probably some of the best that I"ve ever had! It was a little pricey, but the portion was huge! Mague's Special Plate is also very good! My wife had the Enchiladas Verde, and she said they were also very good. It is a smaller restaurant, with tight seating, but it is clean, bright and cheerful. Will definitely be back! read more

We ordered take out. It was soggy and not tasty at all. The best part was the tortillas on the side. I didn't want to come on here and leave a bad review, so I called them first just to let them know that it was below quality. I told the manager that I didn't want anything from them, but just wanted to let them know. She kept saying she was sorry, BUT we serve this all day with no complaints. I'm sorry BUT nobody else feels that way ... She was not sorry. She had an excuse for everything. And she was going to hang up on me. We used to eat there back in 2002-2003, until we learned they had complaints of cockroaches. We finally went back 6-7 months ago and had beef tongue in the restaurant, which was really good. Well, we will not eat, or order, from there again. read more

We had yummy food but the service was pretty slow. The waiter brought out my food and we had to wait another 15-20 minutes for my husband's meal. They do not have a bar, or a fountain soda. They don't have queso, and I was disappointed in the lack of salsa to dip chips. The restaurant is small, disorganized and needs a remodel. Friendly staff, but I would recommend going to other excellent restaurants in the area! read more

Salsa and queso were bland, and it took forever for staff to get to my table. In addition to that, the chips were rather chewy.

Food was very good. Great service. Had pancake and a breakfast burrito. Burrito was delicious read more

It's pretty average. Another thing I thought was odd was not having a salsa bowl to dip my chips in, it just comes in a squirt bottle. That isn't usual for a Mexican restaurant. Regardless, will be back in a pinch but will likely try out some other places in town. read more

The most authentic Mexican breakfast you will find in Boerne, hands down. (I am Mexican therefore consider myself an expert.) The service is also excellent. read more

Magues has the best Mexican food in Boerne and is run by a wonderful family that provides great service and yummy tacos. I highly recommend!

One of the few Mexican restaurants that serve mole enchiladas! Delicious We drive from Fredericksburg for them.

To start, when visiting on a very busy Saturday morning the service was terrific despite other reviews trashing it. The young man serving us made suggestions and the restaurant was happy to do 2 different types of enchiladas on the same entree plate although enchilada combos weren't on the menu. They even stopped us while we were preparing to leave to top off our tea to-go cups. It's clean and cheerful inside, a little loud but in a social local way. Lots of families. The prices are very very reasonable. A couple of beef items were $10-$12 but everything else was below $10. There's a big tray of Mexican pastries in the middle of the dining room. Looked delish but I wanted to save my appetite for my gordita picadillo and enchiladas. Glad I did because the picadillo was incredibly flavorful (unusual for this often bland beef and potato comfort food). I'd come back just for the picadillo. The green enchilada was bright and zingy and the chicken tender and moist. The mole enchilada had very deep complex flavors. Very rich. Good breakfast plates, solid beans and rice. Try the Mague's Special Taco for a yummy switch up on breakfast tacos. Very good house made tortillas. I wasn't a fan of the green salsa on the table nor the relleno, but that's a matter of taste. Recommended. read more

Best Tex-mex you'll have. Everyone is also really nice! We had an issue with to-go order accuracy but they made sure to make it right on our next order. They get busy so just double check your order but other than that, the food is so good, even if they make a mistake! It's that good. read more

Extremely rude customer service We ordered on the phone went home, wrong order totally messed up. Went back and the only English speaking lady there gave me quite the attitude saying I ordered wrong etc while rolling her eyes an cocking an attitude the whole time no apology. She rang it up again and charged $12 more. I told her she was extremely rude and that we never ever come here again. Totally unacceptable and the day after my mother died. Totally the worst experience I have ever had with a restaurant and prices were much higher than online. Totally inexcusable!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Magues is an established Tex Mex restaurant that serves good food and obviously run by family. We moved to Boerne 2 years ago and has been a favorite eatery but recently we have noticed the plate prices have gone considerably higher than last couple of years! disappointing to say the least. we understand grocery prices have gone up but to go up 30 to 40 percent is gouching! We paid $8.99 for the Popurry plate and now it's $15.99. Sorry to say but we can go down the street for great food and prices. read more

I gave them four stars as the best overall Mexican food in Boerne. Good restaurants are scarce in Boerne. The food here was super hot, fresh and tasty. This is my new go to restaurant in Boerne. I had the Mexican plate and my wife had the Fiesta plate. It was a lot of food and the crispy taco was extra perfect. Wrapping up the meal I went for a tortilla. The tortilla was very magical as it was one of the best I have had in awhile. To be clear compared to other Mexican restaurants in San Antonio I would rate this more of a 3 than a 4. We enjoyed a side of pico de gallo and felt it was worth the extra $1-2. It was not as full of tomatoes just the way we like it. read more

Pretty much one of only a very few options in Boerne. If this place was in San Antonio and they treated people like dirt (as they do here), it would close within a month. The food is not at all bad and not at all wonderful...but please, please find a new line of work if waiting on people is such a bother to you!! read more

Was a great place to eat and I've been coming here since forever. I have now stopped because of the price gouging. Used to pay 8 bucks for a Mexican plate now it's 15.99. Don't eat here. read more

I have lived in boerne my whole life and no restaurant has made it so hard to leave like magues does. The employees are always chipper and accommodating. Food is fast and delicious the tortillas are to die for and their beans are my personal fav, but nothing and i mean nothing compares to the huevos rancheros, crispy papas, and eggs over easy, mouth is watering as i type. love u magues read more

This is their Caldo de Pollo and I also got a Menudo and let me tell you it has been the best I have ever tasted here in the hill country.

Tried this spot for breakfast based on the reviews ... and baffled by the raves. Very generic food, scrambled eggs were served in tiny pieces as if it was leftover egg, chilaquiles were cold, dry and mostly cheese, beans tasted like canned beans, and the menudo was horrible. Definitely not made by an experienced cook, they left the seeds in the chili sauce there was hardly any hominy. Service was prompt and server was attentive. She is the reason for any stars. read more

This was the worst experience. I saw cockroaches and also they stole my credit card information. The foot was kinda mid and the ambiance was honestly pretty mid too. I expect better my next visit. read more

I came to visit my mother in Beorne for the weekend,and we decided on the afternoon I was leaving we wanted Mexican food.My mom suggested this place and I was quite excited when we first drove up because from the outside its a small old homey restaurant.One of those where you can tell the food is home made and delicious. When you first go in its a little odd because you seat Yourself but there is no sign so things get a big confusing.And if your not a regular or a local you kind of feel like a fool. The over all appearance of the restaurant is interesting with all kinds of rink a dink mexicAn memorabilia decorated all over the walls.Its a bit dirty but nothing that stands out and makes you not want to eat there. The menus are are the glass in the tables so no need to ask for them.They have a wide variety of breakfast tacos,regular tacos chalupas etc I was a little bummed bc what's the best thing about any Mexican restaurant?The chips and salsa,well here you have to ask and buy your own that aren't even good. Our food was flavorless and not that great.The tortillas were delicious as well as the beans.But over all a fail. If your looking for a delicious Mexican joint keep lookin down the road read more

I gave this place a try even though a number of friends recommended that it was bad. Unfortunately it was even worse. On the positive side my waitress was fine. I started with bean and cheese nachos. They were horrible and burned (see photo). Then I had a Mexican Plate which consisted of a beef taco, cheese enchiladas, refried beans, and rice. The Taco had ground beef that had a very strange taste and I could not even finish. Believe me I always finish my tacos. read more

Good food, great prices! Great place for authentic Mexican at a reasonable price. Very casual atmosphere.

An unassuming little place full of magic. Best Tex Mex in Boerne hands down. Been coming here for 15+ years and it never disappoints.

I usually crave this food! But the sour attitudes of all the women who run this place have been putting a bad taste in mine and my families mouth about the whole experience. Today, Abby started getting snippy at the table while I was simply asking for another cup, acted like it was a huge inconvenience. Then we went to pay and Abby got snarky about explaining to me how she got my total & wouldn't give me a full run down. THEN as I'm walking out another lady comes out the door and yells for me to "GET THE HELL OUT". EXCUSE ME? You expect to keep business while you're cussing at customers and walking around unhappy? R U D E & no longer worth my families money or time. read more
