What People's Say About Place

First visit — and definitely not our last! We stopped in at Macayo for the first time and were lucky enough to sit at the bar with Felicia. She made our experience absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Her energy, friendliness, and attention to detail made us feel like regulars right away. The drinks were perfect, the food was great, and her recommendations were spot-on. Felicia’s personality really set the tone for a fun, relaxed evening — she’s a total pro and clearly loves what she does. We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll be asking for Felicia every time. Thanks for making our first visit one to remember!

Our visit tonight was the BEST we've had. Sammy was an absolute delight and her service was top tier! Food was super fast and just delicious. We look forward to our next visit!

Jenice was awesome! Super friendly and attentive the whole timee. she made sure we had everything we needed and checked in often without being overbearing. The food was great as always, but her service really made the experience even better. Thanks, Jenice, for making our visit such a good one!

Anderson was quick and helpful even with five people at once. And made better recommendations than what I was originally gonna get. And would 100% recommend anyone

I made an online reservation and even though they were swamped, they honored it. At the time I made the reservation, people were on an hour wait list. We were told the kitchen staff was short handed and our food still came out quickly! Our entire order was correct and hot. Our server Nikki was great!! Staff was extremely compassionate, friendly and helpful. The taste of our food was 10/10. Hands down our new favorite Macayos spot.

This is my second time to this location & both times was great! Can’t complain can’t remember the first gals name but Judy today was amazing. Service was great food was out quickly. She suggested the Sunset margarita & great choice. Will be back soon

Great food, great service. It was a little hot where we were seated but it wasn't too bad. Had to go to bar to get seated. I guess door bell wasn't working to alert person who seats you. Great birthday experience altogether.

Delicious food, quiet atmosphere, polite servers and good margaritas!
