Malo - Des Moines

Eating service waiting staff was fantastic. the bar staff was incredibly slow. it took 15-20 minutes to get our drinks from the bar and everything we ordered was 2 bottles of beer and 2 designs of beer. even our eating wait staff apologised for the very, very slow bar staff. Once our food was ordered, it came faster than our cash orders! our food was incredibly delicious.

I’ve visited Malo regularly with business clients and always had a great experience. This time we sat at the bar and were ignored by the non-busy bartender for 15 minutes: No greeting, no waters, no menus. After flagging down a different bartender, we were well served. We still left after a couple drinks without eating due to the initial experience.

Went to try the Mahi-mahi tacos. Great portion size wished they had a Mango-Pineapple salsa .

Entree combo# 8 was especially delicious. My street tacos were just ok, strange texture with the corn tortillas. Salsa ,guacamole, and margarita were very good. Will be back for summer on patio .

Malo rarely disappoints. Tacos were great. Chipotle crema is unbeatable. Service was great.
