My Hubby and I decided to go to Macayo's seeing we hadn't been in years. I see why now so many have closed. I personally found the food to be highly over priced and really bland. We, well I thought I was ordering off the Happy Hour menu, only to be told you have to sit in the loud, over crowed Bar to get Happy Hour prices. May I just suggest having Happy Hour in the entire restaurant, your staff would get better tips. Oh and if a customer brings up the fact of Happy Hour how about appeasing them and giving them the Happy Hour prices, seeing I only ordered one item. I personally won't be back seeing the prices reflect a high end Mexican food and it truly was not. We however did have great customer service. Oh and the booths are horrible. If your slightly fluffy don't sit at the booths, they are very uncomfortable.

It was a busy night, so service was a little slow. But we completely understand they might be short staffed. Tortilla soup was just the perfect amount of spicy and my companion ordered tamales, which he loved! We definently will be coming back for more :-)

Ive been eating at MacYo's since i moved to Phoenix. My standard order is a chi relleno and a green corn tamale. Tonight the relleno had been freshly cooked. If was all puffy and brown and so good and the tamale served with their green tomao sauce was absoluty delicious. A really good meal. Great waiter, great atmosphere and fast service.

While the food is excellent, their ability to follow easy instructions could be hazardous to someone's health. We're here on vacation and this is the third time in a year that we've ordered from here (takeout) and got home to the order not being correct.
This time we ordered via online so that the instructions couldn't be misunderstood over the phone. This meal was supposed to be NO sour cream & NO guacamole. Of course we could call them and have it remade like we did the last two times. But we have to drive back (10 min), exchange, etc. By the time we get back home, everyone else has eaten or their food is cold. On the other two occasions, no refund was offered, nothing extra was given to compensate for my wasted gas and time.
Another point: If someone has a health issue with either of those items and they didn't follow the easy directions, there could've been a major medical problem.
Third time's the charm: Again, the food is excellent IF made correctly. I don't see myself traveling over 2,200 miles to eat from a restaurant that can't make food as ordered and a premium price. Good luck, but you've lost our business.
And this is the second review I've written for this establishment.

Great service. I got a fajita bowl. Very simple but it was wonderful. The right amount of food so I could have a second margarita in a Bob Mug. It was quiet the night I was there. Staff were attentive and helpful. Give the a try. The waiter said the chimichangas are the best, so I will be back!

My husband and I made a last minute decision to eat here after our first choice had a 2 hour wait. Only about 5 minute wait here, our waitress was friendly, and the food was good. The cheese crisp and chips with salsa almost had me filled up before my entree arrived, so good! Margarita flight was awesome! Portions were huge but that's typical of Macayos, we had the leftovers for lunch. The desserts looked delicious but I was so full and we had Crumbl cookies waiting in the car ???? We will be back with the kids I'm sure they will enjoy it.
