" This place was recommended to me by a friend and it did not disappoint! The quesadillas were amazing, packed full of melted cheese and juicy fillings. I also enjoyed a refreshing horchata, which paired perfectly with my meal. The atmosphere is casual – it feels authentic and relaxed. There's a touch of a wait, but they let you know it's fresh food being prepared. " (*Curated Review*)

" Taqueria El Maguey is absolutely delicious! I treated myself to a shrimp taco and it was phenomenal. Nice portion size as well. My only complaint is the outdoor seating; it can get chilly at night. Overall, the food makes me overlook the seating situation. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations and Taqueria El Maguey mostly met them. The tacos were good – fresh ingredients and generous portions. The atmosphere is what you'd expect at a taco joint, very laid back. The only knock was the inconsistent service; some of the staff seemed overwhelmed at peak times. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, my experience here was mixed. The tacos had great flavor but my order took longer than expected. The service wasn’t that attentive and I felt a bit overlooked. However, the food made up for it since the portions were generous and everything was fresh. I’ll probably give it another try. " (*Curated Review*)
