    They are at a new location on Brompton Avenue in Statesboro and the food is fantastic. Homemade salsa and guacamole, affordable lunch combos and great ambiance and service. Check it out when you can.

    You'll find an extensive menu, and they even have tamales! We popped in here for a late lunch and service was friendly, helpful and speedy. I thoroughly enjoyed my two beef tamales topped with red sauce, shredded chicken and cheese. My daughter loved her Chili Relleno! The chips and salsa are complimentary. We were starving and lunch hit the spot! I would certainly return to this restaurant if in the area again.

    We're back! This is hands-down, our favorite local Mexican restaurant. Had the Molcajete Volcán and a Michelada today, and they were both incredible! Wear your fat pants and bring your A game!

    I love El Maguey! I've been here many times and I've never been disappointed. We love their nachos, ceviche, black bean dip, and steak and shrimp. Their margaritas and salsa are also really good. If you go on a Friday or Saturday night, there may be a wait but the food is definitely worth the wait!

    Here's the menu for some yummy Mexican food at El Maguey in Brooklet, Georgia.

    Wonderful service and food! The cilantro in the salsa is a bit much so I always get the queso instead. Worth the stop.

The change to rip everything out, start anew, and build from the ground up appears to have worked miracles because the meals we have purchased have been way above our expectations. The sandwiches were delicious in every way: excellent locally-sourced meats, fresh hoagie buns instead of soggy buns as are served so many places. Another restauirant had opened here over a year ago, and they were so bad that im not sure most people notice when they disappeard. From what ive eaten so far, im thinking ill eat here aften enough, and tell my friends, that they should keep busy, and who knows, maybe even expand next door. You need to come check the Round About out.

The restaurant interior is a bit vintage - days gone by and industrial. I popped in at lunchtime to get a quick bite and service was just that - quick! They recommended the popular chicken salad and it was very good. It is sweet leaning thanks to the Craisins and chunks of apples. While the apples also give this a wonderful crunch so does the celery and nuts. It was garnished with fresh tomatoes and served atop a piece of leafy green lettuce - lovely! I can certainly see this spot being the gathering place of a local sports/little league team after an event!

This is the best restaurant I've been to in Statesboro yet. Here's what my wife and I had: * Mixed Chicken and Steak Lunch Fajitas Over Rice ($11.25) - cooked with bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, and topped with cheese dip * Lunch Combo Special No. 1 ($9.25) - one chile relleno, one taco, beans and guacamole salad * Guacamole Dip - Small ($4.65) Everything was delicious. This is your standard Americanized Mexican restaurant, complete with complimentary chips and salsa (side note: the chips here are of the thicker, harder, and crunchier variety). I would say this place does the Americanized Mexican restaurant concept well and operates like a well-oiled machine (in business since 1989). Our entrees came out fresh and tasty, but the Guacamole Dip was a bit underwhelming. It looked and tasted like it had been sitting out a while. It was discolored whereas the guac that came with the lunch combo was fresh and vibrant. Service was good. We visited on a Friday for lunch and it was nice and busy, though not absolutely packed. Lots of families. This location on Buckhead Drive is the third and newest of the three "El Som" locations in Statesboro, having opened in 2008. It's relatively nice and known as the "Palace." The original location opened on Fair Road in 1989 and the second location opened in the Publix shopping center on Northside Drive circa 1993-1994.

    Zachery Delgado Corey Green…read more1101 July 2, 2015 Moe's Southwest Grill The second that you walk into Moe's you get a warm welcome from the cooks because they all scream out when you walk through the doors "welcome to Moe's". They want to welcome everyone into their restaurant with smiles and open arms. It makes everyone feel better when they are greeted when they walk into a restaurant or into a public place it makes them feel wanted. The Moe's where I live is not very good at saying "welcome to Moe's" when someone walks in although the one here in Statesboro is really good at saying "welcome to Moe's". When you look at the menu for the first time it can be very overwhelming by all of the choices and how all of the food looks really good. The menu ranges from burritos, tacos, quesadillas, salads, and nachos and you can customize all of those and add ingredients to them. They have 31 different fresh ingredients that you can put into your food when they make it because they make it all in front of you. They even have a vegetarian option available if you do not want chicken steak or pork. They also have over 20 items which are gluten free and ingredients with lower calories so they have something for everyone. At every Moe's they have a Coca Cola Freestyle machine which has over one hundred different drink options inside of it. The machine has flavors in it that are not in stores so it will be only way that you will be able to get the drink. They also have homemade sweet tea which is really good because it is made fresh daily. The best part about getting food from Moe's is that they will give you a lot of food. My favorite meals at Moe's are the Wrong Doug and the Joey Bag of Donuts. In the Wrong Doug you get a twelve inch tortilla with cheese in the middle hard shell on top with any kind of meat that you want, with their famous queso on top. You can also put their seasoned rice on it with the chicken which just adds to the flavor. Adding lettuce, tomatoes, jalapeños, and more to your favorite meal at Moe's. After you say that you are done with it they put another hard shell on top and more cheese and then wrap it all up and they put it on the grill to cook it. The Joey Bag of Donuts' name is deceiving because it isn't a bag of donuts it's actually a really big burrito. It comes on a twelve inch tortilla with any kind of meat that you want on it. After that you can choose to put shredded cheese, beans, pico de gallo, with their seasoned rice. With every meal you get a free side of chips and salsa which have free refills if you want more. You can also ask for a side of their queso with the chips but it will cost some more money sadly. The environment in the restaurant is warm and welcoming especially with the employees. They have a lot of pictures on the walls of regular people that look like famous people. The scary thing is that they really do look like famous people. Moe's started in Atlanta back in 2000 and has grown to over 500 stores nationwide and a few abroad on military bases. Theirs a Moe's in three different countries including: the U.S., Turkey, and Russia. Everything is prepared fresh in the store and the chips are made in the store fresh so they are not old and stale.

    After eating here, I recall why I don't frequent Moe's. The service was so-so, food prep area and…read moredrink station could be cleaner. The open light was off so it appeared they were closed at first sight. My food was bland, no flavor at all, including the salsa. Give me a Baja Fresh or Chipotle over this. Waste of money. 2 stars for having a vegetarian friendly menu and good service.
