El Pescador is a restaurant known for its delicious and generous portions of food. The chips and salsa, which are slightly spicy, are complementary and come with a big glass of water and ice. The ranchera platter is a popular dish, and the margaritas are said to be worth the hype. Customers often mention the carne ranchera plate as exceptional, with tender meat and A+ rice and beans. The seafood fajitas are also very good, although they can be a tad bit oily.
While the restaurant has been a family favorite for over 20 years, some customers have noticed a decline in the quality of the food in recent years, with a limited menu. However, the mecheladas are still considered good. El Pescador provides an amazing experience, with servers praised as the best in town, led by a great manager. They offer happy hour and daily specials, making it a great spot for tasty food at reasonable prices. The updated menu features many options, including the must-try molcajete entree, which is filling enough for one or great for sharing. Overall, El Pescador remains a beloved place for good food and drinks, with friendly staff that make every visit enjoyable.
