**4.5 stars Tried this spot for the first time and it genuinely caught me off guard--in a good way. We showed up around 3pm on a Sunday and waited about 30 minutes, which felt fair once we realized how small and cozy the place is. Seating is limited, so a bit of patience helps. The food delivered--everything was solid--and the service moved along at a nice pace without feeling rushed. The only real headache? Parking. It's pretty tight and can take some circling to snag a spot. All in, a really enjoyable lunch and definitely worth a return visit... maybe just with a parking strategy next time.

Great service and nice place. However, they didn't have available the dish I came for, I understand it was late. The food was good but It needed more flavor. I ordered from their food truck from and it was way better.

Don Maguey is one of the best Mexican restaurants in Miami. Recently I realized that I had not made a review for Don Maguey and it is totally worth coming here. Service is always good. Super friendly waiters and an amazing kitchen make this restaurant a great experience every time you come here. The menu isn't big but it truly has everyone's favorite dishes. Tacos, sopes, enchiladas, mole and many, many more. The key is everything is made fresh daily. The al pastor tacos, green enchiladas, birria and the mole sauce are all incredibly delicious. Try their micheladas and also the spicy margaritas (both super good). The restaurant ambiance is very cozy and inviting. Its simple but nicely decorated. Give it a try.

If you are looking for good Mexican food in an informal setting, this is your place. Parking is limited so plan accordingly! Flavors are good and fresh and the service is friendly and prompt. We will be back.

This small place is located in a strip mall. The local police were eating at a table in the back which is a good sign. We were not disappointed! Everything here was great. The food was hot and delicious and the beer was ice cold. Service was excellent too.

Went with friends on a Wednesday evening and it got quite crowded. It seemed like it may have been a neighborhood place. The service was not that great. Tiny basket of chips were brought to the table as well as 2 teeny tiny sauces for dipping. One red and one green. There was no salsa offered. The food was cooked fresh and everything came out very quickly and in a pretty presentation. I had a beef burrito which was ok. It seemed on the small side to me. I would try something different next time.

I decided to stop by after seeing a food review on Instagram, and I definitely wasn't disappointed. The food was great, the service was quick, and there's just something special about a small hole-in-the-wall restaurant that hits different. Overall, it's a solid spot with fair pricing. I had the pozole since it's a weekend special , and it was great. I'll definitely be coming back.

We came late on Sunday. This restaurant is located in a very rundown strip mall. The place itself is small but it has very festive decorations. The attention was on point by Edelso, he was very attentive and gave us great recommendations. We ordered the fish tacos and the shrimp tacos. Both were delicious. Fresh fish and seafood plus the tortilla is clearly homemade and was delicious. The seasoning was on point too. Overall it was a nice experience!

Best Birria Tacos & Chicken Mole I have ever in Miami hands down!!! The service was phenomenal quick and the atmosphere was personal and felt like I was in Mexico. The prices are a bit expensive compared to other Mexican restaurants but the quality is definitely there without a doubt. Delicious, friendly staff, and even complimentary chips and salsa. P.S- get the horchata it wasn't too sweet but very refreshing. Highly recommend to anyone!

Tlayuda mixta
Cristina R.

Absolutely love this place. They recently renovated the restaurant and it looks great. The food is phonological! Consistently delicious and highly recommend. The staff is friendly and the drinks are great.

Best authentic oxacan Mexican food you can get! And you can't go wrong with with their tyludas ( Mexican pizza )

Joe M.

Food was very tasty. Service was very good by the owner's wife, Angelica. Ambiance was very family oriented, small quaint place. Definitely recommend visiting. We were party of 3. We had 4 margaritas on the rocks which were very good. Ordered one guacamole Classico which was small, but tasty. My wife and I shared the Tlayuda Al Pastor. The size of a medium pizza. Again, very tasty, but did not care for the toasted base dough. Hard to handle, delivered without being cut. Difficult to eat. Half chicken and half beef. My sister had the agua chile which we highly recommend. She also had 2 beef tacos en costra, carne asada, that were very good! Not a chain restaurant. Definitely authentic experience.

The best mole I have ever had !!!
Jimi L.

This was my first time here ... What can I say ... the food was amazing ... the flautas were simply perfect ... with just the right amount of cream and cheese. The star dish the mole chicken was and is possibly the best I have ever had either here in the states or in actual Mexico !!!! The tacos were flavorful and yummy Without a doubt the next Mexican restaurant in the city of Miami hands down ... They gained a new customer ... Prices were adequate and service was excellent A very small place with a big punch A perfect 10 out of 10 from me !!!!

On our first evening in Doral, FL we found this great place across the street from our hotel. It…read morewas so good we went there five times during our vacation in Florida. We went here between January 27 & February 6/2026. La Potranca has five Florida locations, but this cantina does not feel like a chain. Authentic sabor Mexicano with an excellent friendly staff. Family friendly & handi-able accesible from the parking lot. This location gets full by 7pm but there is extended service & seating in the common covered courtyard. Plenty of parking in this strip mall location. Service is excellent, fast, & great choices of tacos & drinks. You can choose from 14 different meats/cuts for your tacos, including birria & al pastor. Bow to the taco! Also gringas, vampiros, & burritos. They have bowls (they're BIG) & brunch. p.s. try the churros with 3 dipping sauces. Drinks are extra special here. The clamato & beer cocktail is very unique. Served in a Tajin rimmed large mug, with lime & a tamarind wrapped straw. Excellante! Also a variety of margaritas served in whimsical glasses & their three house cervazas (beers) on draft. La Potranca pays homage to iconic singer & actor Vincente Fernandez "King of Ranchera". Check out the interesting connection with the staff or online. The staff here is excellent. Very helpful when navigating the menu. Very friendly. True professionals. Special shout out to Mauricio & Ralphael - you hombres make this place truly special. Mucho Gracias. We give La Potranca our highest recommendation. Closed Mon, Open: Tue, Wed, Thu, & Sun 10am-11pm, Thu & Fri 10am-1am. Nick & Liz, Albany, NY, USA

We were in neighborhood shopping when I came across this restaurant on Yelp. When we arrived, the…read morerestaurant was empty, but it started to get filled up while we were there. The service was a little bit slow, and I felt that the server got annoyed with us when we asked for a few more minutes to look over the menu. It was more the face she made, but I kept my cool. The food was great and the portions were generous. The salsas that she brought to the table were delicious. I wished I had asked whethet they sold them because I would of bought some. When we walked out to leave, I realized that they have outside sitting, but the restaurant is in a plaza, so the sitting is in the outside in the middle of the plaza.

I knew when I saw the 4.3 Yelp rating and hundreds of great reviews, this was the place !! And it…read moresure lived up to its expectations... actually, it surpassed them! The hardest part about dining here was deciding what I wanted to order. I could have ordered the entire menu it looked so good! Helpful tip... check out the menu and know what you're going to order before you get in line. Otherwise you're going to be pressured to order at the front of the line. When you walk in, you place your order and pay for it and take a table number. You need to find your own table. Our service was pretty quick, despite how busy the restaurant was. My cold brew was very good and a nice start to the meal. Our guacamole came next and it was nicely styled with pomegranate, cheese and cilantro on top. Yum! The real star of the show for me was this unassuming looking House Club Sandwich that was to die for. Seriously ... it was so good. I ordered mine without the ham, and it was divine! I wish i lived closer. I'm already dreaming of coming back. My son ordered some kind of short rib/beef burrito and it disappeared so quickly I didn't even get to snap a photo. This is a perfect spot to enjoy a great meal, I highly recommend it. One thing I can say is that it's on the pricey side. $113 lunch for 2 added up super fast but it was well worth it. I'll be dreaming of that sandwich til my next visit!

I was so excited to come here because of the great reviews, but I was disappointed. We ordered a…read morecouple of items, but the only ones that were good were the horchata matcha and the acai bowl. On top of the food being bad, it was incredibly expensive too. They also automatically add tip. I ordered the quesadilla, and there is an option to add mushrooms/onions on the menu. Online it shows the quesadilla is $13, when I ordered it was $14 + 2.50 for onions and tomatoes (which ended up coming on the side). Also, when I asked to order that, the waitress was a bit rude. So I ended up paying $17.82 for a terrible quesadilla and experience. I really liked the horchata matcha though (hence the 2 stars).

I have heard so much around this place and I can confidently say it lives up to the hype!…read more Finding parking nearby is a bit tricky as it is only street parking and there's only outside dining available. The music selection is fire though and I was jamming out the whole time while waiting for my food. I complimented them on the music selection and they mentioned the owner is dominican and puerto rican which explained the great music selection. I was helped out by Adrian and his service was helpful in finding what dishes to order. I took my food to go and it was piping hot, definitely made fresh to order which I enjoyed. The nachos were what I was most eager to try as they are all the rage on social media. They lived up to the hype and that nacho cheese is absolute gold. I love that it's served in a pizza box. It just makes it iconic. It travels well and everything was still hot when I got home. The Al Pastor taco was just okay, nothing to write home about but now the steak burrito was really really good. I love that they don't have rice in their burritos and instead replace it with potatoes, which is absolutely delicious. They give two different types of salsas with your order plus limes and the green salsa is unreal. Add it to everything for a flavor boost! All in all this place is fire and if you're craving nachos, this is definitely the place you should come to get your fix!

Yesterday we stopped by here to get lunch to go. We did the online order on their app. We were…read moreexpecting to get the same quality and service we got 3 months ago (5 stars) but unfortunately that did not happen this visit. We are very disappointed that the chicken and steak burritos were not seasoned very well (bland) and both were so dry. I couldn't even taste any cheese in the chicken burrito either. I took a few bites and had to give the rest to our dogs. What a shame. My daughter couldn't finish her burrito either. I tasted her steak burrito and it didn't taste like any steak that I have ever tried. So disappointing. The guac and chips were good but they were like a little side dish. So, there went a wasted $50 for lunch. We were still hungry. Since it was a to-go order, we didn't feel like going back all that way again. It was a very hot day. Service was strange. I sat in the car but my daughter went up to the counter to pick up our order. She stood there for a long time in the hot sun and no one helped her. There was a bag sitting on the counter already. Finally when she was helped, the guy said that the bag sitting there was ours!! She was highly irritated fir the poor service. He should have checked to see if his customer was there to pick up the only bag on the counter. In retrospect, we should have tasted our burritos before driving home to taste them but we trusted them. Sorry to say, we won't be going back.
