Magaly’s Tamales & Mexican Grill

It seems I may have had a bit of a mixed experience at this restaurant. As a huge fan of homemade tamales, I was really looking forward to trying the Tamale Bowl. However, it didn’t quite match my expectations. I had envisioned something similar to a Chipotle-style bowl, but instead received a dish that felt more like a fresh, health-inspired bowl filled with an abundance of veggies. On the positive side, my sisters Chili Relleno looked absolutely delicious and definitely caught my eye! In hindsight, I might have been better off choosing that or sticking with the classic tamales. Overall, while I didn't find what I was hoping for, I can appreciate the emphasis on fresh ingredients. I may give this place another shot to explore more of the menu!

Family and friends, we all love this place. It's one of our usual spots for brunch Sundays after church. They serve staple Mexican dishes as well as some American. Chilaquiles and huevos con chorizo are some of our faves! Great place, must try!

If you're craving authentic Mexican cuisine, look no further than this hidden gem. The food is absolutely delicious, with generous portions and prices that won't break the bank. I highly recommend the sopes, tortas, and menudo. While the food is undoubtedly the star of the show, there are a couple of areas where the restaurant could improve. During peak hours, the wait for your food can be a bit long, so be sure to factor that in when planning your visit. Additionally, the music selection is limited to reggaeton and bachata, which doesn't quite capture the full breadth of Mexican music. Overall, the delectable food and reasonable prices make this restaurant a must-try for Mexican food lovers. Just be prepared for a potential wait and a soundtrack that might not be entirely in sync with the cuisine.

Magaly’s is my go-to lunch place! I regularly enjoy the tamale bowel that consists of a choice of rice and beans as a base, lettuce and pico topping with a tamal of your choice. This time I decided to add some avocado.

Wow, this place is everything!!! So fresh, we came at a great time to see them make the Tamales on the spot. Ordered the Ribeye Steak cooked to perfection. Tamales are so soft and fluffy, and they don't skip on the filling. Also, iced coffee was better than Starbucks.

Well located establishment close to City hall. The location is super clean, and the staff are friendly. Tamales are fresh and made daily

Another little gem in the East valley. Very nice atmosphere Friendly staff. Little fruit & Vegetable stand inside as well witch is pretty convenient. Called in my order and it was ready when I arrived so that’s another plus. Got a dozen tamales mixed pork, Chili cheese, Mixed vegetable and Sweet corn & Pineapple. I have to say Not bad at all! The tamales are a good size and prices are fair. If your ever in Sanfernando Give this place a try.

Service was slow, There was only one server during lunch time , the tamales tasted like they were a week old, the chicken in tamales was very dry and the green sauce tasted sour because green tomatoes were old,
