El Maguey Mexican Restaurant 7115 Northeast Imbrie Drive, Hillsboro, OR 97124

"It was fine. We went in to order takeout on a Wednesday, and it was almost empty. We each got burritos. They weren't the best burritos I've ever had in my life, but they were satisfactory. Generous portions, a little heavy on the rice and light on the meat which was too bad. But overall pretty okay food."

"Got our order to go and I didn't go in, so no indoor pictures. We got the carne asada burrito grande and two ground beef enchiladas with rice and beans. And a large horchata. The enchiladas weren't great. Was closer to a tamale. The carne asada burrito was very large, enough for two portions. The vegetables and toppings were fresh. But the burrito was very bland. It was a decent burrito, but very white peopley. I added two containers of their salsa which was pretty good and it was better. The horchata was interesting, no cinnamon in it, but I was mad at it. Only pics of the carne asada burrito. Would return again."

"They have delicious food and a beautiful restaurant. Very clean. Food portions are huge and delicious. Drinks are well balanced. Was super super surprised it was slow in here. Hidden gem for sure."

"This was our first time in, and it was an unimpressive initial experience. This is a large, open location with a decent bar that would probably be good for large groups. The location seemed clean with the exception of a few unpatched holes in the walls (possibly from previous A/V installations) and a strong acrylate smell that hit us in the face as soon as we walked in. I actually went back out the door and looked up and down the strip mall to see if there might be a nail salon next door. There wasn't, but yes...the smell was that strong. We were apparently the only ones dining that night - but it was right after the new year, and we ate fairly early as far as "dinner" goes. We were given chips, salsa and bean dip which we enjoyed (salsa/pico seemed very fresh and well balanced), but then the meal came. My wife ordered the ground beef tostada plate, and I ordered a 3-item combo plate with a shredded beef chimichanga, chicken chalupa, and a chili relleno. The first impression was "Oh wow...brown guacamole. That's not good." (see pics), so we already knew how that would taste. I tried to start with the chalupa, but the shell was so fragile that it shattered as soon as I touched it - there was absolutely no way to pick it up, so I reverted to a fork. The chicken seemed like it could have been seasoned well, but it was so dry I didn't want to eat it. The chimi was okay, and I actually enjoyed the relleno, but both really lacked a proper fry-job and were too soggy. The pinto beans on my plate had absolutely no seasoning whatsoever, and were absolutely bland. Finally, the ground beef on my wife's tostada was unnervingly sweet, and represented more of a sloppy joe mix than anything that should have been served in a Mexican dish. Overall, the food was warm, the portions were decent, the location was clean, and the server was attentive...but nearly every aspect of the food served to us was a disappointment. Hoping it was just an off-night for them. We're locals and plan on giving them another try at a later date, so we will update this post at that time."

"Very delicious and large servings. Luckily, I enjoyed some fine cannabis prior to this lunch-in. Friendly staff. Have also ordered to go from here, which was packaged like a gift wrap shop. HIGHLY recommend! ***Ordered pick up/togo for our second order with them. Very pleased with the outcome. Photos added!"
