This is from the referenced Facebook page. A little confusing as to the name:


Now Open. Los Tres Magueyes Mexican Restaurant, 344 Shopping Center Dr., Wildwood, FL. 10.9 mile drive from The Villages. 461-0577. (Mexican) L/D. Opened early October, 2015. It's in the Wildwood Shopping Center where Rita's Oyster Bar and Grill did business, a while back. "The Three Agaves" is it's name. Offering traditional Mexican fare. Combo dinners start at $15. Wine and beer licensed. Happy Hour 2-7 PM. Juan Jaime-Rodriguez and Gloria Rayas-Cervantes, owners.

Do they serve New Mexican food in the New Mexican Restaurant? Do they make Albaturkey?

What's so confusing? The name is Los Tres Magueyes Mexican Restaurant and I saw an ad recently in the Happy Paper.

The confusion is HUGE. Don't get me wrong. I love the Mexican Restaurants.

I get it---"The Three Agaves" is the translation of Los Tres Magueyes

Green or red? I love it when I am eating at a NM restaurant, the wait person asks that question and someone at the table from out of state gets a blank look on his or her face.

What's confusing is that this post was supposed to be about the new Mexican Restaurant in Wildwood that opened last week and we're getting reviews and opinions about long established restaurants in Spanish Springs and Colony.

Los Magueyes Restaurant in Wildwood
 
We had dinner there tonight and found it to be very good. They have a Grand Opening Special of two combination dinners for $15. Also imported beers, such as my favorite Negra Modelo, for only $1.75 on happy hour. I had a Cheese Chili Relleno, Cheese Enchilada and taco. My BF had Beef Enchilada and Beef Chili Relleno. The rice was excellent. He had beans and rice and liked them both. It is fresh and clean looking inside, the staff is wonderful. They also have a restaurant in Mt. Dora. It is in the Sav-a-Lot shopping plaza. We will be back, and soon.

Despite that recent score increase it is 3 strikes and they are out from my perspective.

If you're still referring to the Colony Plaza Mexican restaurant, we had eaten there a couple of times and it was ok; we ate there last week and it will be the last. Had chicken enchiladas and took one bite - no flavor, something didn't taste right; unrolled them - ALL DARK MEAT. I don't mind dark meat in fried chicken, just never had it in enchiladas. Got a Mgr., said sorry they had ran out of white meat; refund? No way. Adios, amigo.

Don't you love it when a poster comments about a place and doesn't give it's name?

If you are referring to my post, I noted previously that it was the Mexican restaurant in Colony Plaza. [emoji28]
