El Maguey Mexican Restaurant in Manchester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

All the employees are friendly and kind!

Never disappointed. I now live out of state, I miss going to El Maguey, I'm so happy they hadn't changed. The food was yummy. Service great, the decor was colorful and clean. Yeah.. it was great to visit. Wish They would consider opening this same store in Sarasota Florida, oh that would be awesome!!

Steak with shrimp was good. Good amount of salt.

Love the colorful decor. The food is good too, and the margaritas are very tasty and prices are typical Mexican restaurant prices. Have been here a few times and always happy with my selection.

Very good restaurant, quite delicious food, everything very nice, family place, excellent service from Waiter Alan, highly recommended.

Very good restaurant, excellent food, variety of dishes, and very good service from the waiter Alan, recommended.

A great place and great service from Jesús 10 out of 10 the vrd

The best place for breakfast and the gentleman who served us called Jesús 10/10

It is a good restaurant, the food is very excellent, and the service is very pleasant, but especially for the waiter Alan who was very attentive, friendly, the experience in this business was very pleasant, I will return. 😁

Used to come here all the time. The last few times we've somehow gotten the same server, and he is ruder and ruder each time. This is our last visit.

Let me start with I typically like this place, but today was something else. This is the saddest excuse for a margherita I've ever had. I swear there isn't even alcohol in this drink. The waiter claiming it's normal is concerning as they clearly left something out; this drink has zero flavor. I've had many margaritas here before without issues, so clearly something is wrong, yet here we are. I don't appreciate being told that this how the margherita is supposed to taste. You clearly don't know because you haven't tried my drink. Using the hot weather is not an excuse either as it tasted watered down nothingness the second it was brought to me. The food is always excellent as usual.

Only gave 3 stars on food because of the margaritas. Ordered a top shelf margarita and tasted like a regular one. Don't know if it is the sour mix they use, but didn't taste great. We've been to most Mexican restaurants around St Louis and have had many top shelf and specialty margaritas. This was was at the bottom of the list. The fajitas and queso with beef though were excellent.

Everything was pretty copy and paste, nothing to brag about. Average at best.

Celebrated Father's Day with family. We intended on a steak restaurant but had a 2 hour wait. We did not wait for a table 10

Ordered online Grubhub delivery, beans, guacamole, sauce tasted bad, 9 chicken tacos dry, rice good, chips broken badly and sauce very watery( thick it was frozen the defrosted). When I eat in the restaurant it is very delicious, especially beans and tacos. Very disappointed and expensive for bad food.

Nice inside and the staff was awesome and good was great! Definitely one of the better locations for El Maguey.

Good Mexican food. Our waiter was on top of things. Recommened.

I didn't dine in but from what I could see the vibe inside the establishment was doing g all it needed to do. All you could hear was pleasant chatter and soft giggles. The food was awesome even for to-go orders. I will be back!!

Great evening spent with friends in a wonderful atmosphere and good food!

Nikki is fantastic. Even in a rush I feel like I’m her only customer. Gave be the best recommendations and her drinks are AMZAZING

Great flavor, good service, and reasonable prices! Many vegetarian options.

Waited at a table for ten minutes while the customer who was seated after us got waited on and no waiter approached us so we left and will not return.

Large helpings, family friendly.

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.

Margarita was all ice and 2 sips.

Great lunch items for a decent price.

The only decent thing here is their margaritas. Food was bland and unseasoned

Not bad, very large menu with many choices. Know now what I am getting on the next visit. The waiter was great 👍

Great food, service and atmosphere. Starting with salsa, rice and beans. If you can’t do that right it’s not worth eating there. Theirs - TOP NOTCH. Had the steak enchiladas. Not shredded beef or ground beef but STEAK! You don’t find that a lot but they were great here! Definitely recommend!

My 2nd time going and just like last time the food was delicious, the service was kind and helpful and thr prices aren't bad. We went for my son's birthday and left full and happy. The frozen margaritas are delicious!!

Food and service was great..not rushed at all..

The tocos were top notch. The sever there was amazing and Victoria was super nice. The chips and salsa had the perfect amount of flavor in them. They were to die for.

Our food was delivered so fast! And the Blue Margaritas are dangerously good! I highly recommend the fajitas alambre too! I was highly impressed with the friendly service and portion sizes. The house salsa is pleasantly spicey!

Sat in by the bar at a table. There was food and dirty dishes and glasses and used napkins. The customer had left and the mess sat there for over an hour. They were not busy in the bar area at 3:30. Just really bothered me.

I have been many times in the past. I had the steak burrito. I thought it would have some refried beans in it. It only had rice. Maybe it was my mistake. I will be back, I probably should have taken more time with the menu.

I only get take out there. Food is fairly good. I cannot really say about the atmosphere as I just go pick up.

The Fajita was great. Fun atmosphere and an excellent waitress.

The food was poorly prepared, and tasteless. I like the food better at the El Maguey in Manchester.

If you like Mexican food. You'll love it here

Great place for Date Night and families. The service was wonderful!! Our waiter encouraged us to learn Spanish words and was very helpful 👍🏾 Xoxo ❤️ #dominiquenash

Great atmosphere, food, prices, and staff.

Excellent food , Service was excellent , If you like Burritos I’d suggest the Burrito California,

Always good, favorite restaurant

Antonio was our server and he was working his tail off. Food was fast and delicious. If you are looking for tex mex style delicious food this is the place.

Delicious authentic Mexican food. Our waiter was exceptional, the atmosphere was very friendly and the decor was on point! Too bad we live in Alabama otherwise I’d be there every week!! Highly recommend!

They let the 6 of us post up here for several hours while we had a small Christmas gift exchange and ate food and drank margaritas. Our waiter was mega friendly and kept the water and margs full. Salsa isn’t super chunky, which I prefer, but there was a very strong onion taste to it. Chips are a bit on the crunchy side but not bad. I ordered the huevos con chorizo and devoured it!

This is one of the best places to grab a plate that will be delicious and reasonably priced. I've loved everything I've ever ordered here and we go fairly often as a date night destination. But you don't have to take my word for it, check it out yourself. (They are really good about handling your special requests. I'm lactose intolerant and have never had an issue requesting no dairy. )

It's a little pricey, but the food is good.

It's what you would expect. So I will say good.

Excellent food haven't ever had a bad experience

Really good food, good portion too. Our waiter was super efficient and very nice

Fast service, friendly server. Food was good

As always everything was perfect and tasted great service was on point

We were seated immediately when we arrived!! The tacos are bland, no seasonings, only lettuce/cheese toppings other toppings are $1.50+ each, which I thgt cilantro was part of authentic, I got pico & I tried top shelf 🍓 margarita (get main liquor on side) which was liquidity vs more frozen...but good 👍🏾! Chicken soup was really delicious, I got the one w/out veggies. Service was great, it was pretty busy. Personally I didn't like the chips, too thick for me & salsa was ok, but too thin. This was my 1st time at my neighborhood El Maguey, instead of traveling across town!!

I am from out of town (East Pennsylvania). We came with my Nephew and his family- 10 of us at one table. Our waiter was terrific! The restaurant was fairly full but we only had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated at one long table. We ordered and our food came out a lot quicker I had expected. My meal was hot and made with excellence. Our drinks were kept full as well as the tortilla chips and salsa. There were other employees that helped out to keep our big group experience a good time. If I lived in the area I'd make this a regular place for dinner.

So far this is the best economical Mexican food place here. The service is great too!

Excellent Mexican restaurant. Bright and cheery, friendly and helpful staff. Had the beef chimichanga with fajita veg and a top shelf margarita. Lots of food and a pleasant drink. Will go again.

Good place, good food, great service.

Great place but for our travels. A place I would eat at again.

Delicious Mexican food, super friendly staff and fairly priced.

Food was great and Luis our waiter was pretty good. Food came out pretty quickly. Highly recommend

Mexican food should not have PROVEL in it. ENOUGH SAID.

Our favorite go to spot. We're in at least twice a week. Service is phenomenal. Food selection is endless. Everything is always super fresh and delicious. Highly recommend over surrounding mex restaurants. 💙💙💙 we love Miguel

Absolutely delicious! Sat outside on a beautiful sunny day. Brought water for my pup! Salsa was so good!

The food was delicious and the service was excellent!

This place was seriously the best Mexican food I've ever had. The people were so nice as well, very clean, will definitely be coming by again!

Their food is good for champion there.

The place looked vibrant. The service crew upbeat and helpful. The food came fast. We ordered the el maguey fajita for two. It had beef, shrimp, sausage and chicken. It was huge and soooo delicious! It was more texmex than authentic mexican but yummy just the same. We will definitely come back. Highly recommended.

Very friendly, very accommodating!

Went to go pickup food for take out with my husband, restaurant looked fun, food was ready on time, and it was delicious!!

Great food. Love the margaritas.

My best friend and I used to go to this restaurant several times a week when it first opened in the early 90s. I’ve since moved away but I love this place. Amazing affordable food and friendly service. I was feeling nostalgic so I googled it and am glad it’s still here and thriving. I’ve never eaten chili Colorado better than theirs. Thanks for the memories.

The food is amazing. Service was great.

By FAR the BEST El Maguey location in the greater St. Louis area. The food is fresh and made to order (no need to worry about nasty rice and beans made days ago). The chips are always warm and the salsa lightly chilled, just the way I like! The staff is phenomenal and there is always someone walking around to help if you need something. The food comes out quickly after ordering, so don't worry about filling up on chips and salsa because your meal takes forever to come to the table. 😂 Definitely recommend this location if you're up for Mexican food, you won't be disappointed!

Still my favorite Mexican restaurant

Awesome food. Fast, friendly service. Excellent value- large portions at low prices. Best Mexican food experience I've had in a long time. Looking forward to going back soon!

Great little spot. Great service.

Really wonderful service. Food is good and provides full portions. Going for a top shelf margarita is worth the cost - only because you will be disappointed with the basic margarita product.

My favorite restaurant in the area. Great ambiance, service and food.

Awesome food, staff, and easy parking. Highly recommended

Nice place Hard to get waiter to refill your drink

They started adding a 3% charge for paying with a debit or credit card, no matter how big or small your bill is. Also the portions are smaller than in the city.

Great service and food at very reasonable prices. The margaritas are tasty. However, whenever we go, they’re always out of fried ice cream. Not sure if they stopped making it or it’s just our luck.

I love this place! Been here numerous times! Always a go to for great Mexican.

Popular place for good Mexican food. Short wait for the table, but we were a group of 7. Good service. Great food and portions were more than enough to fill us up, but not stuff us. Recommend highly.

The shrimp Diablo and the Gordon special are fantastic. I’ve had them a couple times and cannot believe how good they are. The steak with the salsa verde was also supremely good. I took that home for my husband and it travelled really well. They also sent him with and bag of chips and some salsa. GREAT MEAL. Everyvtime

The food is in no way gross but it's also just sort of disappointing. Guacamole were very salty and the quesadilla I ordered was thin, wet, and floppy. I've never been too impressed whenever I've dined here. Lovely service though.

Service was fast and efficient. The food was delicious and plentiful.

I always loved their food and service.

Chips and salsa always FRESH The fajitas are always a reliable menu choice.

Good food at a competitive price

The food and service is Amazing here at this location. Totally worth the wait if there is one! I never think twice about making the 30 minute drive here. One of my absolute favorite places to eat at even celebrated my birthday here last year and possibly again this year.

Awesome service and great food! Prices were very decent too.

The food was nasty and cold. The service was great, and friendly.

We went for an early dinner at 5 and the service and food were great. They accommodated our party of 6 quickly and drinks and chips were flowing!

Fun decorations. Good prices. Nice servers.

I went first timeon my birthday and it felt like I was back home.delicious food

The street tacos were fantastic! As was the mango margarita!

Service was great, food excellent. Our first visit, will be back.

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.
