EL Magüey Bucharest in Bucharest

"Definitely worth the high rating. Food was amazing, the margaritas were 10/10, and the atmosphere was really enjoyable. Staff were very friendly and even offered props to wear when you enter. Just a little fun thing but it adds to the nice atmosphere. It’s first come first serve. Has additional spacing upstairs but seems that is only used when the all the indoor and outdoor tables are full."

"If you’re looking for Mexican food while in Romania, this is the place. It caught our eye while on a Sunday night tour of the Old Town in Bucharest and decided on trying it after a whole week of trying Romanian cuisine. The atmosphere was great, friendly staff, and excellent homemade tortillas. We especially liked the chips & guac, authentic spicy green salsa, and the tacos of al pastor. If you’re ever in Bucharest, give it a try!"

"I visited El Magüey and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is full of color and energy — it truly feels like a piece of Mexico in Bucharest. The place plays lively Mexican music that adds to the fun and relaxing vibe. I tried the nachos with guacamole, and they were fresh and delicious. Also, I tried their delicious pastel dulce de leche. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. The waiter Kumara was super friendly. I really enjoyed the vibrant décor with all the Mexican colors and details. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great food and good vibes!"

"This is the best place to experience an authentic mexican style meal! The staff is very kind and the atmosphere is cozy, especially on Friday and Saturday when there is live latino music! Viva Mexico"

"If you’re craving authentic Mexican flavors in Bucharest, this spot is an absolute must. The al pastor and carnitas tacos were the stars of the night—perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with real depth of flavor. Each bite tasted like something straight out of a top taquería. The margaritas were just as impressive: fresh, balanced, and dangerously easy to drink. Pairing them with the tacos made for an unforgettable meal. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service kept the experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for legit Mexican cuisine in Bucharest, look no further. Highly recommend!"

"We ordered an mixed plate for 2 persons and it was great. It came with many classic mexican food. The taste was great and also the atmosphere there was nice. The portion of the food was large so it was a really nice choice."

"Very good. The ambient is very nice, the staff is kind and make the experience great - including sombrero hats and flower crowns! There is some room for improvement though; the tortillas are a bit too thick and the guacamole should be made from fresh avocados."

"The staff was lovely and gave us sombreros and other festive clothing to wear while we dine. They also brought a cake with a candle as a surprise for my mother, because we mentioned it once that it was her birthday. They took polaroid pictures of us as well. Absolutely one of the best experience in Bucharest for mexican delicous food!"
