I ordered pupusas and an order of yuca. The yuca appeared to be old and reheated, it was hard and dry to chew. The pupusas were thick and full of excess dough. I had to rip the dough off in order to eat a portion of it. This was my first time ordering from here and I don't think I will be coming back. I find this very unfortunate as this is one of the closest Salvadoran restaurants to me and it was recommended by a close family member. I will say the stuffing was tasty! read more

I shared a beef soup and a chicken soup with my mom and it's truly impossible to pick a favorite! My sister gave me her pork bone and that was also outstanding! There were some interesting canned drinks for selection. I love soursop so I was thrilled it was an option! The concha was a teeny tiny bit on the dry side but the flavor was perfect. read more

Excellent selection of breakfast options. The carne asada was wonderfully seasoned, the beans are from a recipe that I wish I had, and the house-made corn tortillas were perfect in every way! The firm and pungent Salvadorian cheese must be an acquired taste but I could tell that it's of high quality. The restaurant was quite close to Houston Executive Airport (KTME) and that was important for me, as flight crew. read more

Food is so delicious . Stopped here on my route a couple of times and I can't stop thinking about the papusas! The people working were sweet and the place was clean and nice! read more

Best food I've had in a long while. We got the combination plate that included a pork taco, pupusa, and tamale, all three must-tries! The rice and beans were perfect. If you want the best homemade meal in Texas, lovingly prepared by an El Salvadoran mom, go no further than Magili Bakery. I will be back! read more

Magili Bakery - a plate of mexican food - Salvadoran Near Me - Brookshire, Texas

Drove 30 mins to get here,, we were staying at a hotel somewhere by Waller, anyways i was craving pupusas fir the longest now and found the closest place and here it was. So came inside and I thought it was like a sit down and then someone comes out to take you a menu but no, you have to order at the front then they take you food to your table. The guy seemed to be the owner he gave us a salvadorian tamale just to try and it was so good!! I orderd pupusas which were delicious! My husband orderd chicken soup and my son mondongo soup i think thats what is called everything was very good we got full pretty fast i wanted to get some bread aswell but last minute forgot service was awsome and food was great! read more

Food was cold and service is very slow. Horchata has nuts be careful. Pupuas okay. Don't go hungry. Zero customer service.

Delicious! Stopped by here after a hike. They have fresh sweet breads available for to go. I hadn't eaten here before, very authentic. The nice woman behind the counter recommended the mix plate. It's a little taste of everything. I'm not a bean person but the refries beans, omg so good. I finished those first! The chicken tamale with peas, carrots and chickpeas, definitely get that! I'm also taking home some seafood soup and chicken soup, and several sweet breads. I don't think you can go wrong with anything here. I'll definitely be back! read more

Magili Bakery - Fresh Sweet Breads. - Salvadoran Near Me - Brookshire, Texas

Delicious pupusas, made freshly so it takes a bit to get your order, but so worth the wait .

The pupusas are delicious, especially with the relish/slaw. Highly recommend this place for El Slavadoran cuisine.

Los precios que anuncian no son los que te cobran! Ten cuidado con lo que te cobran, te cobran de más en todo! Todavía la señora diciéndome que ella fue al Olive Garden y que ahí también le cobran de más y q tiene q ver el olive con las pupusas, q señora tan más ignorante read more

The food is great especially the pupusa's and the hospitality all ways 100%. La calidad de la Horchata es muy original.

I went in to the brookshire restaurant on Saturday afternoon and asked for 2 pupusas and a Mondongo soup to dine in.  I also asked for 8 pupusas to go.  I paid for all of it with my credit card before I went to sit down.   After I was finished eating with my kids I went and asked about the pupusas I had ordered to go.  The Mexican lady that was working the register forgot that I had already paid and tried to make me pay again. She also disrespected the Salvadoran dish by calling it "Menudo".  I had to tell her that "Menudo" has completely different ingredients put in and I didn't want a Mexican menudo.  I wanted a Salvadoran mondongo soup "Sopa de Pata".   If you don't mind eating mediocre-tasting food by mediocre staff, or if you live in the area and don't want to drive elsewhere in Houston for higher quality Salvadoran food, then stay with Magili Bakery in Brookshire. read more

Love this place. I am always greeted by the owner. The place is always clean and i love the pupusas the seafood soup is awesome on the weekends. Go check it out read more

This place is amazing! My friends and I broke down on the way back from Galveston and had my car towed to Roger's Auto Mechanic two doors down. It was Sunday so they were closed but we left the car there and waited for a friend from Austin to come get us. While we waited we stood under the overhang at Magili's. So many people went in and out, we thought it must be a really good bakery. We couldn't go in because we had two dogs with us. Then someone sort of looked at us like "what are you doing here?", so I told them what happened. Not 5 minutes later the owner came out with 3 chairs so that we could sit down. It was getting to lunch time so I went in to order something and he said that he already had something for us. He brought us out 3 pupsas and showed us how to eat them with the sauce and all. He didn't charge us a DIME! Y'all! These were so dang good! I've never had one before! They were delicious. I had the pork and cheese and MAN! I stayed in Brookshire overnight for my car and when I went back the next day you can bet I went and got some more. This time I had the chicken, still amazing! But I also got a cream horn - soooo delicious and something else with pineapple in it. It was all so delicious and yummy!!! You can bet from now on I'll be stopping there on the way to or from Houston/Galveston! You know the food is going to be good when the people have such a good heart. And this food is amazing! read more

While the food was okay, and the counter staff were polite, I can't give the restaurant a glowing review. The space is cluttered with various things for sale and they simply can't keep up with to go orders and restaurant service. The yuca was cooked well but chicaron looked and tasted a year old. read more

It's a Hondureñ restaurant with a bakery as well. This place stays busy. Them popusas are addicting! That's all I get! Need more staffing though sometimes they do take a long time to serve me my order. read more

Excellent food that tastes very authentic. I've had many items, but today I had the Especial plate with tamale, bean papusa, and chicken taco. It was very good! Eat here and support this business! read more

Just realized we found a hidden gem will usually drive to the location they have on fry road but this location is much closer to home and of course we ordered food to go as well!!! The breakfast they have are so good And also the pupusas read more

I come here for the fresh sweet bread! Other places in Brookshire that sell sweet bread can not compete as they do not bake it in house and cannot guarantee the quality and freshness Magili Bakery has! They do have a small dining area where you can order food from their menu and dine in. I will have to try it sometime. read more

Great service and even greater pupusas! I went during lunch today and a few months ago and was able to make it there, order and eat my food slowly enough to actually enjoy it without getting heartburn, and make it back to work in time to still be early. read more

This place has the best papusas and very cheap. The service here is also very good! I would recommend this place for anyone that is passing by through Brookshire read more

Probably my favorite restaurant in Brookshire. I love the pastries and they're so inexpensive. The soups are incredible. The pupusas are delicious. Wonderful place. read more

Has to be one of the best bakery I've been to. I am happy to say regular now. Very tasty food.

This is one of my favorite place here in brookshire great services, good food and the staff is very friendly, I definitely recommend it.

I do not recommend this bakery. We placed an order for a cake from last week to Saturday 29th and to this day I told myself that they cannot make the cake because they do not have a decorator, they will believe and with only one day difference when they had more than a week to let me know . what a terrible service they have. read more

This place is not just a bakery. They have some of the best Salvadorian food either dine in or get it togo. I have explored the entire menu and everything is outstanding. Pupusas and Tamal's are amazing ( but you must explore this menu to really appreciate it. They always have special combo plates to try a little bit of different things. Very reasonable prices. And now for the good part the Panaderia they have a wide variety of Salvadoran breads as well as some Central American breads. And all are excellent! read more

Magili Bakery - Menu. Sorry for poor quality pic. - Salvadoran Near Me - Brookshire, Texas

I REALLY enjoyed eating here!!! My son took me here to show me El Salvadorian food, and it was DELICIOUS! And the man at the counter said they use FRESH ingredients! Most food prepared each day (sometimes, apparently they run out of certain menu items because of this). I expect to get 6 meals out of the $45 we spent there (we ordered more food to go)! If you're in Brookshire, TRY THIS PLACE! But not if you're in a rush. Part of what I enjoyed was the relaxed atmosphere. And again; they cook their food fresh after you order. read more

Well darn. I have tried this place 3 times. Each time not only is my order wrong ( and I ALWAYS ASK what to order because I'm not familiar with their food and love to try new things ) On This occasion, she recommended the pork/cheese pupusas; I took them home and discovered they were chicken. If I wanted chicken, I would have ordered chicken. The girl was snobbish ( no personality at all ) and while waiting for my order I was talking to another lady who ordered much more than I but received it at least 5 minutes before my one paupusa. Perhaps I'm too nice, but this is THE 3RD TIME I have tried this place. I do speak Spanish; the young girl at the counter spoke perfect English, so I am extremely confused as to why my order is ALWAYS wrong. I support my local vendors. Or try to. :((Feeling sad. and hungry ")) btw, called them before wrote this; ( I was hung up on when I asked for a Manager. read more

Great pupusas. Fresh pan dulce. Other dinner items like shredded beef with rice and hand made tortillas, which was pretty tasty! Caldos aka soups or stews beef chicken and a seafood one.They also offer salvadorean merchandise like flags and soccer balls. read more
