"We have been to Mago before, but never for lunch. As usual, they did not dissapoint! Everything was GREAT. The food was, of course, excellent. The service was great too! And it was probably the BEST margarita I've ever had. . . it didn't hurt that they were serving them up for only $5 on Monday (which I didn't know until after I had my first!)."

"Great authentic Mexican food! Not cheap but a good deal for what you get. Drinks were amazing. My husband had a Margarita and I had a sangria. Both excellent. The only minus I found was the noise level. Not a place to go for a romantic dinner out."

"Excellent!!! The salsas were the best I've ever had and not the same, old salsa that most restaurants serve. Very fresh, flavorful, and colorful. Everyone's entree was equally outstanding, the tortilla soup delicious, and our server was friendly and very efficient. My new favorite place to eat!!!!"
