Editorial Review for Macayo's – by Kristen Quaranta
In Short
Along Central Avenue, Macayo's stands out as the structure seemingly built by ancient Aztecs. The inside continues with the traditional decor in vibrant colors and accented with festive Mexican music. Regulars find Macayo's as a great place to unwind, especially with its free buffet and discounted drinks. The menu features traditional Mexican entrees and the bar is fully-stocked, especially with Mexican beer and tequila for their noteworthy margaritas.

We went with a group of 10 people to Depot Cantina and had one of the best nights ever. The serve (LIZ) had a great attitude and was very helpful with the ones in the group who weren't familiar with the menu. The Chicken Chimi with BAJA sauce was outstanding.
Pros: Fun atmosphere, Great service and great food
Cons: light rail construction makes it a little difficul

acayos claims to have invented the chimichanga. So do a lot of other places, so take that with a grain of salt. The food is just OK, its really nothing special. I wont beat around the bush: this is gringo chow. Theres nothing particularly flavorful about it. Bring your relatives from Ohio, because anything more exciting might cause hysteria in people unaccustomed to truly excellent Mexican fare.
Pros: Patio seating
