Question Los Magueyes?

This has been our go to restaurant for over two years. Last week Taco Tuesday was less than stellar. Did something happen that changed service, food quality?

Serious health code violations. They were shut down last week.

Google for the health violations. We will not return.

I did, wonder how long this was going on and whether they will learn from this experience.

How many people have suffered life changing illnesses, or died so far?

Had lunch last Wednesday with a group of 30. Had great service and food.
It had just passed inspection so good to go. Almost every place will have violations when inspected.

But not many get closed by the health dept and when they came back the second day still made them stay closed.

That tells me that the owners do not take food sanitation seriously enough. Perhaps should have been a mandatory closing for a few weeks to make them wake up.

Mandatory closing for a few weeks? Are you suggesting that the county has that ability? I doubt it. If they addressed the issues and passed inspection then they are allowed to reopen.

It was also our group's go-to spot for a long time until twice in one month just before Covid hit us they delivered to a group of 14 meals that their children prepared. It was amateur hour. We silently suffered through the first slaughter but several weeks later the same or worse with the food on the next attempt. It wasn't bad or terrible it was utterly horrendous.

We gave the manager who we had become friendly with a chance to taste the meals he served us and he refused.

Brisas Del Mar #1 now! Great service and nice people and when they play the music they don't blast your head off with the volumn.

I saw the story about the closing for a clean-up a few weeks back. I hope they make it back to their former status. I'll have to read about it because I'm done with them for good.

Have no idea but when the inspector came back and the place was still not fit to serve people do believe something more should be done.

Yep, something more was done. They failed the reinspection and were not allowed to reopen. The issues were apparently corrected and they passed the subsequent inspection and were allowed to reopen. Sounds to me like the system worked. Not sure what else you expect.

Default Like Jif

After that serious a violation I would never go there, and I am done with Jif too.
