Excelente servicio de la mesera y muy deliciosa la comida gracias por su atención
Went in on a Friday around 3-4pm. I ordered a ceviche tostada and cousin a mango aguachile. Both plates looked appetizing, but we soon noticed that the shrimp on his aguachile and the cubes of fish were raw on my ceviche. Then when it was time to get the check we had to ask 3 times for it and then when we finally received it. The waitress took her time coming back that we had to go look for her to cash out. I would of totally understood if they were busy. 2/10 recommend.

El Malecon offers a variety of seafood dishes, with standout items such as the cóctel mixto, known for its generous portions of octopus and shrimp. However, the molcajete dish has been criticized for being overly salty, overcooked, and oily, with some confusion over the preparation. Service can be slow, especially during busy periods, and there have been issues with attentiveness. The restaurant's prices are on the higher side, with chips and salsa incurring an additional charge. The ceviche has received mixed reviews, with some guests praising the mojarra frita. It is important to note that the restaurant only accepts cash payments, with a $20 fee imposed for credit card transactions. Overall, El Malecon provides a clean and pleasant dining environment, with mixed opinions on the quality and value of its food offerings.
