El Malecon Mexican Seafood & Steak Restaurant

On a Road trip from Georgia to Chicago, My friends and I, were looking for a traditional Mexican place to eat. We were tired and hungry most of restaurants were about to close. Luckily, found El Malecón, we are pleased to say that its the best customer service we have received. Although, they were less than an hour to close, our server Nora took care if us as if we were the first customers of the day. We are in gratitude for that and in top of that the food is amazing. The consome instead of chips/nachos made an impact of difference and specialty differentiating this place from other places.Tacos dorados are the bomb and its rice very tasteful, there is a lot of soul and love on that plate. We enjoyed not only the food but the great customer service we received.

I've never come about a Mexican seafood restaurant. I don't really care much for Mexican but this is a great place with great people. If you like Mexican and seafood give it a try.

I was highly recommended to try this place out by my neighbor in Georgetown... He referred to it as fine dining Mexican food.

We were seated promptly however the waitress was obviously overwhelmed... The first thing you want to do in the restaurant business is to get the drinks out! We must have waited about 15 minutes for 2 Margaritas and another 10 to get guacamole on the table.

The music is definitely too loud to carry on a conversation, i'm glad that we were sitting away from the speakers. If you're going for lunch for a quick bite to eat, HURRY UP AND WAIT!

My mother ordered a Seafood relleno, it was quite tasty... I ordered the steak fajitas. The vegetables for the fajitas where cooked perfectly, the steak however you could have knocked someone upside the head and given them a concussion, it was so overcooked and about 50% gristle.

If you're not in a hurry and you want some Mexican seafood it's worth a try. I guess it'll be a hit or a Miss as to whether you get good service that given day. Based upon my only experience and my first impression I might add. The menu consists of about 95% seafood!!!

If I could rate it at TWO AND A HALF STARS, that is where I would have to place my rating on my first experience of this restaurant.

Regardless I still tiped the waitress 20% reluctantly... Stay away from the 5% dishes of the 95% seafood choices on the menu. I sincerely hope your experience exceeds mine!
