"Ambiance was nice. Had to wait longer though for our food, it’s really more than 15 minutes but steak was nice. Staff were easy to talk to but hard to get their attention even if it’s not that full. Overall, the drinks, steak and chips were delicious."
My husband and l love to try new restaurants And as a Mexican who loves food i believe its hard to find GOOD authentic Mexican food. We were very happy to visit Mago Grl Cantina Let’s start by saying that environment and the vibe of this place is fantastic Everything is so colorful and fun that immediately makes you feel happy Our server catalina was very friendly Fast and professional She speaks both languages very clearly I love speaking Spanish But my husband is Romanian so he felt good having catalina talking to him in English. She gave us a brief explanation about the roots of the restaurant and their moles She motivated us to comeback to try moles and mariachi! We started by trying t...
I don’t know if I am expecting more or people are just rude. How come service industry don’t appreciate business no more. It seems they hate this job and our server was very rude. On top of that we got TWO plastic strings in our enchiladas. We asked to speak to manger and some non manager type person show up with no professionalism. He flat out said “unfortunately this happens all the time and there is nothing he can do” say what They have no moral responsibility and not even a courtesy to professionally apologize stating we see extremely sorry this happened and we will make sure it doesn’t happen again. This place is not even real Mexican taste. Horrible food, not even close to testing Mex...
Wonderful high end Mexican restaurant the food was delicious! We order the guacamole and they make it fresh right infront of you. Christian the sever was exceptional. Very attentive and kind young man he has excellent customer service and it’s very courteous. It was our first time coming here and even though they were busy he answer all my questions and did his best at service. The place is a vibe had live music. The decorations are in the point from the wall decorations to the tables. We order the enchiladas, carne asada taco n some dessert. Can’t go wrong with this place. So next time you’re in south barrington come by.
While you'll find yourself spending -slightly- more for mexican food here, you'll find yourself enjoying it twice as much as other local joints. The margaritas are well balanced, the atmosphere is fun and lively, and good god the food is great. You'll find me at a corner table sipping their salsas obsessively from a straw.

I got the Pechuga De Pollo with Mole De Cacahuate and it was delicious. The rice and crispy plantains paired nicely with the Mole and the crunch of the peanuts completed the dish perfectly. You honestly can't go wrong with any of their Mole dishes. Even their Frozen Mango Margarita was amazing. I highly recommend it.
Pretty good! The tortilla chips they serve at the beginning are warm and crispy. They will definitely fill you up. The live guacamole is a must try. The veggie fajitas were just super delicious. Chicken burrito was perfect and the portion size was huge. The left overs were delicious the next day too!
Very cute breezy Mexican restaurant. Great for night out with your friends or taking a date out. Wrestling masks are decorated around the ceilings. Very intriguing and artistic vibrant atmosphere. Great for watching sports game; Could be bar restaurant. Food was delicious with infusion style
Had a great lunch at Mago after exploring Arlington Heights all morning. The food was delicious and fresh, and moderately priced. A lot of great flavors and just enough heat from the spices! If I lived in Arlington Heights, this would be a frequent spot for me! Thank you for a great meal.

Nice new looking Mexican restaurant in downtown Arlington Heights. We went on a Monday evening for dinner and sat right down. Fresh chips with 3 different salsas were good. I had chicken fajitas for dinner which was also good. I look forward to returning.
