"WOW!! I am blown away. I’ve been living and dining here in BG for two years now and I mean it when I say this place is by far the best place for the over all food, service, atmosphere and drink experience!!! I am blown away.
It’s a busy Wednesday night and I came solo. I was seated at a booth, not the bar RIGHT away.. greeted at the table and the door RIGHT away. Complimentary chips and salsa were out to me in 60 seconds. My server greeted me within 90 seconds. My first drink was to me in 120 seconds. I came to drink but my chips and salsa were refilled. My server stayed attentive with me throughout my visit Despite him juggling multiple other tables who were drinking AND dining. He remained patient with me and didn’t rush me off because I wasn’t ordering an entree. After two hours I finally decided to order food. I ordered my third round and it came immediately. Ordered my food and went to use the restroom and it was piping hot on the table when I returned less than three minutes later.
The drinks are STRONG. The food is FLAVORFUL!! Everything taste FRESH.
Like, I couldn’t even wait to get back to my quarters to write this review. I’m still sitting at this table sipping my drink. The bill?? Super affordable. I’m glad I came to enjoy my last night here in bowling green at El Maz. Unfortunately it will be my first and last time but no fault of their own. Thank you for having me and delivering a great experience! Make sure you guys check them out during happy hour for these super strong and affordable drinks if you haven’t already.
Signing out of bowling green, Lyric."

"This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the southeast! The food is excellent, the service is quick, friendly and always served with a smile. Such a great place. Tonight I had my favorite, Especial El Mazatlan and my friend had the shrimp chimichanga. Both were delicious and priced reasonably priced!"
