Food was excellent. The only complaint I have is the service. I ordered first, but everyone else's behind me got their order first. I only ordered one burrito and took 15 minutes for me to wait. Other than that, the food was really good!

I got a bean and cheese burrito with tomatoes and it was cold the cheese wasn't even melted!!!! The hottest thing in the bag was the salsa!!!! It was not worth $8.72. The burritos from Taco Bell are hotter than the burrito that this place gave me. I just wasted my money. I threw it in the trash. Won't be coming back here again.

This restaurant has been around for a long time and a very good family business. Everything is made fresh to order. The tacos are filled with a lot of meat and the enchiladas and taquitos are just delicious.

What a nice and quaint little gem for quick Mexican food. The interior is clean with a cute layout. The food was prepared in the open kitchen, which you can see over the cashier shoulder. The food was not bad at all, the rice could use a little more seasoning/salt, but over all not bad. Definitely give this place a try, and be turned off by unkempt strip mall.

Mexican flavor without a doubt I loved my Puerto ribs in sauce, it reminded me of Mom's Kitchen I would order the same thing again but next time I have to try something different☺️

I’ve tried many carry out Mexican restaurants in the area and this is one of my new favorites. I had a carne asada burrito and it was muy bueno. Unlike other places they cook the meat to order making it fresh and juicy with lots of flavor. If you’re used to places that scoop pre-cooked meat you’ll be super impressed with the El Maguay Express way that separates them from the others. Highly recommend and will be back!

Putting this review for the great service, the pollo asado and the tacos de cabeza al vapor are the bomb!

I'll just say this: My GF ate a shrimp taco 12/24 and got food poisoning so bad that she was doubled over and shaking in pain to the point where she couldn't even walk. Six hours in the ER. She is now on morphine for the pain. I wouldn't go here at all. You've been warned.
