Nice view from deck. Staff was fast and friendly. Went back a second time few days ago and it was just as good. Had the mixed fajitas and a burrito that was huge. Both really good.

Our preferred El Maguey. For some reason the food is better and they offer different menu items than other locations. Option to sit outside makes the extra drive worth it.

We've always had good service here, as well as good food. On nice days, I recommend the outdoor seating to enjoy the view of the lake.

Been to many El Maguey's restaurants and this is probably the best one so far.

The food has really gone downhill and the prices went up but wasn't posted correctly on the menu. Very disappointing. We've been going there for 10 years. Won't be back for a long time, hopefully they will be better then.

Come in Sunday morning and our server was amazing. I think her name was maybe Rosie or Rosa, it’s always “how are you guys doing today” “yes sir” “yes ma’am” , always gets everything done with a big smile and cheery personality. Love the food and margs here too! 10/10!!

I will not go back here for one simple reason: accountability. When you make a mistake, own up to it do not blame the computer or the “system”. I went to pay and the guy checking people out put the wrong total and when he realized his mistake tried telling me that I did not have enough money in my account which was a total farce. When he was challenged further, he persisted that he did nothing wrong and decides to refund the transaction which did not show back in my account right away so now until his”system” issues the refund I get $45 held in limbo. Funny how the “system” can take the money right away but not put it back in the same timeframe.

The cashier charged me the wrong total. I noticed the anamoly by chance after coming back home and called them. The lady informed me that I need to come back to the restaurant to get it fixed. When I got there, she just refunded the amount without even asking for the card. She did not need the card to issue the refund! She could have issued the refund over the phone. After all this, she wanted to charge me for the food again. I confronted the manager and he was equally shameless. I returned the food to them which they gladly accepted. One of the worst customer services I've ever encountered. Absolutely pathetic! There are way better Mexican restaurants close by with way better customer service. I would give them a zero star if the site would let me!

One of a kind food. The chicken and cheese taquitos are amazing and no one else has them. Freaky fast service! Always good.

Great for quick, casual dining at a reasonable price. Can get a little loud tho if there are a lot of families. Patio is nice in spring, summer, fall.

My husband and I had our first date at this El Maguey location. It's sort of our place to go but for the past few years the service has gone extremely downhill. The staff is extremely rude and the food isn't even as good as it used to be. If we ever go back it will only be because it's history for us but it's time for us to make history somewhere else

I’m from Sedalia ate here 2 months ago! The food and service was good. Returned today for a meal the Quesadillas Cheese was like soup and runny. Seemed watered down the meal disappointing. Unfortunate was hoping to be a regular. Unsure the difference from last time I ate here?

The food was good. The wait staff had better things to do I guess. My water was never filled and I stood at the register 10 minutes before someone came.

Delicious food and fast service. Our seats overlooked the Lake St Louis Lake and made our experience that much better. I had enough time to visit here on my hour lunch break so I will definitely be returning.

The food was great and so was the service. We like to go to this one so we can see the lake from the outside seating area. Even though it doe not look that big on the outside it's a pretty big seating area with plenty if big tables for big families.

Horrible service. My family sat and waited for 15 minutes and had no one even acknowledged us. One waiter even looked at our table 5 times as he walked past without saying a word.

The food is great. The service is ok. Drink & food specials are good. But saving large tables, which are basically just a couple of smaller tables stuck together, for large groups that "might" show up (no reservations), telling groups of two, three, or four, that you don't have any tables on the patio available - that is absolutely ridiculous.

Sunny skies and I cant eat on patio. Walked in and someone was on the patio. Get seated in a booth, not even 10 minutes later girls get sent to patio. Was gonna enjoy some drinks and dinner. Instead only one drink and dinner. Was gonna tell wife to come join, but not going back now. Pretty sad they would rather please younger girls than a working man ready to drink on the 4th holiday

2 stars for patio view, 0 for food. Terrible Mexican food. Salsa taste like tomato paste, didn't get fresh homemade chips and margaritas were so basic. Way too much sour mix. Everything lacked flavor.

My husband and I ordered to go from here. We live locally and often order from this store. This time we ordered steak fajitas and a taco salad. Not that hard right? We get the food home, no tortillas for the steak fajitas. We bring it back and ask for the tortillas, the woman takes the food to the back and comes back. Assures us that everything is there. We get home, we have the tortillas, but no steak. TWO tries and they still couldn’t get it right. They were incredibly rude as well. Do not order from here if you want the correct food or good service. Very disappointed considering how often we order from there. Will not be back.
