" I stumbled upon El Maguey by chance and now I'm hooked! The tortilla soup was hearty and rich, just what I needed. The chef really knows how to balance flavors. The portions were generous, though it was quite busy, the staff managed to keep a smile on their faces. I’d recommend this place to anyone craving authentic flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve got to say, this is my family's favorite Mexican restaurant! Every dish we've tried has been delicious- especially the carnitas! The service is often attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere feels warm and inviting. Prices are reasonable for the portions provided. I’m always looking forward to our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Maguey for a late-night carry-out, and my experience was disappointing. They forgot my drink, and when I got home, one of the entrees was wrong. Luckily the food that I did receive was tasty and fresh. It’s a shame that I had to deal with incorrect orders; I had heard good things about them. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has been a favorite for a while. The carnitas platter is always the highlight of my visits, and the beans and rice are seasoned perfectly. The ambiance feels homely and cheerful. It's a great place to celebrate small occasions. I always recommend El Maguey to my friends and family. " (*Curated Review*)

" Before I visited El Maguey, I was recommended by a coworker, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was vibrant, and the staff actually make you feel at home. I had the chicken enchiladas, and they were bursting with flavor. From the first bite, I could tell the ingredients were fresh. I will be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t typically leave reviews, but El Maguey deserves one! The fish tacos were outstanding, arguably the best I’ve had outside of Mexico! The atmosphere was colorful, and the staff was eager to help. I discovered them during a friend's birthday party, and now I want to try everything else on the menu. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food tasted great but I was underwhelmed by the service on my last visit; I had to wait a good while for my check. However, I will give them credit because the food did indeed hit the spot! The enchiladas were delicious but could use a bit more sauce. I might consider returning despite the service issue. " (*Curated Review*)
