To be honest, this isn’t my favorite location in the chain. While the food can be good, my experiences with the service have been consistently underwhelming. On one visit, I had a rather rude server, and during another, a different server noticed an issue with my food but simply commented, “Oh wow, look at that,” without offering any help, napkins, or follow-up—which felt dismissive. I've been to two El Maguey locations, and unfortunately, the service at both has been disappointing at times. At one, we were simply ignored but that was ODD for that location. But at this location, even when my food was served in a noticeably off or unappetizing way, the lack of engagement from staff left a poor impression—especially during a return visit when we ordered both food and drinks and still didn’t receive attentive service which was very different from their other location. That said, the food itself is generally tasty, the happy hour deals are solid, and wait times haven’t been an issue. I just wish the service matched the quality of the menu. I just know at this location we try and do carry out only and come prepared to doctor the food after pickup.

First timers.. met family members from around the area. Got seated quickly. We were waiting for one of the group to show up. So we just ordered drinks. Server got drinks quick. Late comer in the group was later then we anticipated, so we ordered more drinks. Server was working with us. Very easy going. We finally ordered. Everybody got what they ordered, food was hot and delicious. Will be back to try other dishes.

The decor in this restaurant is really awesome and the outdoor seating area is one of the best in the entire area! We arrived around 8:00 on a Friday and it was not super busy- there was no wait but the service took about 25+ minutes before we finally received our food. The waitress was very kind and gracious and continued to bring his chips and refill our drinks while we waited. Not sure why it took so long because it did not look very crowded. The menu is enormous. I think it was either 6 or 7 pages long.

I got the steak fajitas and it was tender and delicious. The meat could use more seasoning so I asked for limes and it made a big difference. Surprisingly the bell peppers were still a little crunchy is how I like them. The fajitas meat was cut into very small pieces and I had to work at it to find all of the pieces (please don’t do this in the future). We were greeted nicely when we walked in and was immediately taken to a booth. We had an amazing waiter, Cirilo. He was on top of things through the whole service plus he has a friendly personality and a good sense of humor. The restaurant has an outdoor patio which was full plus a full bar and a colorful indoor dining area. The restaurant is in a strip mall so there’s plenty of parking. If you haven’t been, I’d give them a try.

The wait staff was very observant when it came to staying on top of our refills, and other needs . Food came out rather fast. The food was great .. My daughter and I split chicken fajitas. The cooking staff did mess up on our fajitas we asked for no onions but still ended up with them. I still got 4 stars because all other dishes were to perfection. The wait staff was perfect. My son got shrimp nachos. He really liked those. Most of the table ended up getting a form of nachos and they were every enjoyed by all. This has to be one of the most beautiful restaurants I have ever seen . Very colorful, the chairs and the walls were caved with 3D images of wildlife, and scenery. I hope we can come back again one day. We were a group of 7 people

We enjoyed a great evening at El Maguey, taking advantage of their pleasant outdoor seating. I opted for the combination meal and complemented it with a margarita, both of which were delicious. While I didn't catch the server's name, the service she provided was truly outstanding. El Maguey offers a well-rounded dining experience that left us thoroughly satisfied.

Went in for lunch. Immediately recognized and seated. Drink and food orders taken and delivered expeditiously. Food was great..(bacon was chewy so ask for it crispy.. I'll remember when I return, dish was otherwise tasty) The portions were decent and there was plenty left to take home.
