I went to dinner with my brother on a Sunday evening. The patio was pretty busy. The service was great and the food was delicious!! I highly recommend the flour shelled tacos. I will be returning again soon.

Excellent place for eating and get some drinks. I loved the music, the attention was spectacular. 100% recommended place.
This was our second visit…four of us. I had the chicken taco and the steak taco. Came with some of my favorite Malo Fries. Loved it.
It was half price margaritas. The margarita was over the top fantastic and we will return.
When visiting Des Moines, this by far was arguably the best restaurant we ate at! I would highly recommend! Service was good and the food was great! Good flavor and portions. We ordered the Chicken Quesadilla, one normal and one with “light” (less) cheese. I think the one with light cheese was a much better choice. Especially if you’re not a huge connoisseur of cheese. We also ordered the Chicken Tortilla soup and the Jalapeño Chicken sandwich. All of it was extremely flavorful and well prepared. The Malo Fries were good as well! Cost is slightly on the higher side for a lunch meal. But definitely worth a try! 👍🏼👍🏼
Absolutely love this eatery. The Dos Pescados was muy delicioso! I really want to give my experience 3 ⭐️ because the bar service was absolutely ridiculous. My friend ordered her meal and it took an hour and a half to get. We were so perturbed by the time we left. However, the food was good enough it made up for the poor service. Eat the Tacos! Half price margaritas are a WIN!
Delicious seafood nachos! I ordered a small appetizer as an entree. Best I've ever had! 😋 My husband got the #17. He said it was very good, but the salsa was a little charred. We got the trio appetizer with salsa, guac, and queso, and enjoyed all three! Scrumptious, and we had leftovers!
We were able to sit outside and our server by Megan B. We were both super hungry and I was very indecisive!! We added on the queso and gauc to the chips and salsa, and all of it was great! The chips were super fresh tasting, and the gauc was really good. I had the Posole Colorado soup, which was tasty and the Cuban with fries, both were excellent. My S.O. Had the Mahi Mahi torta with the fruit. The fruit is a winner! All around great experience and food!!
My first food stop in Iowa was to take a solo walk to get tacos at Malo. This one was a home run at my first at-bat as a Des Moines rookie. Wow. I timed it just right, and they were placing my bag of food on the table right as I walked in the door. I got the avocado and fried onions on corn tortillas, and instead of getting a combo, I got the portobello mushrooms as my side. That way I was able to just put them on my tacos. I also got a side of fruit with sweet chili sauce. It didn't want to have anything super spicy before my marathon (think about it) so I got the pico de gallo. The tacos were delicious, and the fresh tortillas seemed handmade. The fruit was so juicy and sweet, but the stunner here was the portobello mushroom - like steak strips. Savory and meaty but not too salty... Just amazing. I had enough left over for a second meal. Great vegan and gluten-free options.
This was my 2nd time here! The food was great I always get carnitas they're so good! Meat was tender with lots of flavor! I got a strawberry margarita which was refreshing! Atmosphere is amazing with great staff! Perfect spot for a girls night!
