    Tres Magueyes Dinner
    Rebecca M.

    Los Tres Magueyes is a busy place. The menu is large and the prices are reasonable. Service was good but the food not so good. The Mexican Coke was my favorite part of the meal. I liked the rice and shrimp too but I'm not sure what meat they call steak as it was overcooked and tough. The chicken was dry. I'd rather pay more for better quality meat. I don't see myself returning here.

    Camarones a la Chipotle so spicy and good.  Not as spicy as it used to be but still wonderful.

    This place has some of the best Mexican Food around. My wife and I love their chicken, fish, and their shrimp dishes the most. We highly recommend their chicken taco salad, their Tilapia Veracruzana, their chicken or shrimp a la crema (or the hotter version, a la Chipotle), their chicken quesadillas, and their traditional chicken, shrimp, steak or tilapia dishes. We are fans of their Mexican ground beef as it is not flavored the way I like that. Their prices have gone up but not as much as many other restaurants and their portion sizes almost always allow you to bring food home for an additional one or even two meals. And they have their "Taco Tuesday" special where you can get a large chicken, veggie or ground beef taco for just a $1.50. I think their flour tortillas are homemade and are very good.

    The food was very good and fairly priced. The service was great. Luis was very attentive and pleasant. Definitely we'll come back.

    You know, I am really disappointed. I came here for a late lunch with my friend. Her and her family come here a lot, so she was excited - that made me excited because she loves a great restaurant. When we arrived, we were one of maybe three other tables - so they weren't busy (at that moment). The waitress came with fresh salsa and chips - delicious! Since we were talking we did take a while to decide on what we wanted. The waitress was very pleasant and allows us to chat and take our time without pressure to order. We placed our order and well...that's when things went a little down hill. We probably waited about 20 to 25 mins for the food. Not a problem at all. While waiting the restaurant got busy! Like a group of over 15 people came to dine. It was crazy busy then. The hostess comes to the table with our food. My friend and I said at the same time, this is it?! It was such a sad looking burrito and it gets worse from there. The beans were salty, the rice was cold, the burrito was COLD. Like not even a little warm - the cheese hadn't melted! We waved down the hostess, she told us she would get the waitress. Y'all it took her forever to come because of the big party. When she arrived we explained and she was like it's cold? Ma'am, I have no reason to lie...it was the tone. At that moment, I was over it and told her I was good. She then changed up and offered to have it remade or maybe something else - no thank you. My friend and I finished our convo and she brought the check once she realized my friend was done. I wouldn't say this isn't the place, clearly a lot of people love it here from all the people that were coming in and calling their orders in. I'll chalk it up to an off day.

    The low down: You can't help but feel festive when you eat at this location. The decor is top notch (see photos) food is good, large portions but it's typical to any other Mexican restaurant in my opinion. Service was adequate A great experience overall, enjoyed it more than the one I typically frequent in Rolesville. I just so happen to have a BOGO coupon for LTM that will expire in December so for a change of pace decided to try the one located in Wake Forest. When I walked I immediately felt as though I was at a fiesta and wishing I had brought a sombrero. The restaurant had quite a few patrons given it was 1:30 on a Sat. In the past I have frequented the LTM in Rolesville, so I was surprised to see how differently this one was decorated, but loved it ( yea, same owner, I asked). Three meals were ordered, Arroz con Pollo, Fajita quesadilla and a kids chicken nugget w fries (don't judge, she's 10). The portion sizes for all 3 meals were more than adequate. In total, with the BOGO coupon we spent 24$ (that included 2 waters and a beer). Food came out quickly, our server attended to our needs in a timely manner. The only reason I give a 4 versus 5 is because there was nothing that was above and beyond ( other than the decor).

    I was deciding between a 3 or a 4 star. Going with a 4. Placing a take out order was fast and easy and pick up was fast as well. I didn't have to wait. Burrito Tejano - as in other reviews, this was very good , I love the creamy sauce and the meat and shrimp inside are well seasoned. Quesadilla combo - not too impressed. My son didn't find it enticing. Tilapia Cancun - the sauce was way too overpowering and a bit too spicy. Otherwise this could be a good dish. Will come again to try sth else.

    Different chips?  Yummy.

    Called ahead for a pick up order - place was hopping! We had to wait longer than the 15-20 minutes due to how busy it was, a lot of drive up orders. We got ACP (arroz con pollo) and it was delicious! Packaged well, chips and salsa included, tortillas as well and silverware. Definitely a new fave dish!

    Ate here when we were traveling in Wake Forest...it had a good size parking lot, the restaraunt was festive and servers were great. We ordered whole fried fish --- they were perfectly fried and also the salad with grilled shrimp --- and the shrimp was deliciously grilled. This is a quick stop for a very good meal.

    I think it was a strawberry margarita, extra sweet, on the rocks, sugar rim. Best drink I've ever had!

    Ok ok, not in the most safest or best location but hear me out. They have the most authentic…read moreMexican food in the triangle! Ambiance: it's what you make of it. We went during the day and it was ok. Nothing to "scary". But I can see in the evening feeling a bit different. So not a first date place location but great to get food and sit in their picnic area if you'd like. It was super hot for us, so we ate in our car lol Service: quick! We only had to wait maybe 10mins? They are pretty nice but brownie points if you speak Spanish as they are fluent and can understand you better. Food: I would definitely come back. The meat is tender, has a good char to it but still juicy and and well seasoned! Savory and not spicy at all! However getting their hot sauce will knock your pants off. As it definitely is not a buildable burnt burns instantly lol. But super good! The corn smut is where it's at! Love it as it's a taste between corn and mushroom! Highly recommend to try it!

    This is an adorable little spot…read more The pros: The food is very rustic and thoughtful. There was none of that "slap precooked food into a taco/tortilla/etc and throw it under the broiler" nonsense that is often the case with so many below-average Mexican restaurants. The menu has a wonderful variety of options that allows you to sort of pick infinite combinations (ie. tacos, gordito, tostados, etc.) and there's a lot more choices than "chicken/beef/steak." You can experiment, you can mix and match, you can try new thngs. Clean restaurant, friendly staff. I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what any comments about the "scary" ambiance would be about. There's a Food Lion and a McDonalds in the same strip mall? There are *gasp* apartments near by? The cons: Things move slow. Seems like they run a skeleton-crew of staff so you might have two people in the front, two in the back, and that can mean you sit for long periods of time between sitting and ordering, refills, et cetera. This could be a pro if you don't like being over-serviced, but it can also be a con. You do your own -- but I'd put this place on the tier above 70% of any place that starts with Las/Los/La/El. Give it a shot, but if you have a large party, a time constraint, or you are impatient and particularly fussy, be aware that this is a slower meal.

It's a typical Mexican restaurant menu, with all of the standards - tacos, burritos, etc. Warm chips and house-made salsa are served at seating. Drinks from the bar are huge. One of the specialty drinks needed re-made because it just wasn't right, but the margaritas are spot-on. Portions are big, food is fresh and served piping hot. Stuffed jalapeños were pretty good, but not sure they are house made. The shrimp burrito is STUFFED with plump, flavorful shrimp and vivid pico de gallo. Refried beans, rice all very good. Definitely will add to the rotation.

Our waitress was awesome, she was friendly and quick with the service. We ordered a couple of drinks and they were delicious. Unfortunately, those were the only two things we enjoyed about Aye Toro. The food was extremely bland, almost flavorless. When my husband and I took our first bites, we both looked up at each other and both knew exactly what the other was thinking. There was no spice, nothing. Mexican food is supposed to be flavorful but this was like...boiled chicken without the spices. For $17 for a plate of bland food, I was super disappointed and felt like I wasted $80 for the night (two meals and two margaritas with a 20% tip). When we come back for trivia, we might stop by for margaritas beforehand but I can't imagine Aye Toro staying in business if they keep serving flavorless meals. I know this review is harsh but spending that kind of money on this lackluster dinner is even harsher.
