Malo is a well thought out restaurant with an impressive menu. The margaritas as fresh and not full of artificial stuff. The guacamole and empanadas are outstanding. I look forward to many visits!
First time ever trying the chicken and waffles . The waffle was light and flakey the chicken was breaded lite and juicy..In short the combo is just amazing with the syrup one of the best meals ever
George Formaro does it again. All 8 people in our party LOVED their lunch . One plans to go back this weekend to try something else from the menu. Lunch was not at all pricey , quality was outstanding.
I got a veggie , a chili relleno , and a carnitas taco . Carnitas was my favorite, but all were good! Corn tortillas made them messy to eat so I wouldn't order that on a first date or business meeting.
Love the tacos at Malo! My personal favorites are the chorizo and chipotle shrimp . Comic book lovers: head next door to Capes Kafé after your meal.
Can't go wrong with Al Pastor Tacos and jalapeño creamed corn and it's pretty cool that we get to eat where the fire trucks were parked for many years.
Oh my gato! The sangria is the best I've ever had! Once again proof that bad is really good. Love Malo!
Pumpkin seed encrusted chicken is fabulous. Skirt steak off the wood fire grilled was not great ( a little chewy). Good apps.
Try a mix of different tacos ! I had 3 types and all were great! Excellent value
Amazing food def go with the al pastor tacos and the barbacoa enchilada and seafood nachos
Excellent Latin food and drinks at the Des Moines Social Club
Dos Pescados : Best fish tacos in Des Moines. I've tried every one I could find. This is it.
Chicken enchiladas are the best I've ever had, it's the only thing that I ever have.
Chips and salsa are to die for, and don't be afraid to order two tacos or ten.
Get the Churritos. It's all about the chocolate sauce.
The seafood nachos are the best that I've ever had!
Queso is amazing. Get the salsa trio, three salsas for $3.
Great food, lovely atmosphere. The new social club is wonderful!
Seafood nachos are amazing. Also recommend any of th salads
Shrimp ceviche and calamari are the best!
The patio lies perfectly in the shade during lunch in the summer.
The chipotle shrimp tacos are awesome, as are the margaritas
The tacos might be small but they are loaded. Two go a long way. Service tends to take awhile so don't bank on a quick meal .
Great brunch ! Mac and cheese were amazing!
Atmosphere, drinks, tasty menu
Don't skip the cubans and coffee .
Great tacos & entrees.
Veggie tacos are to die for.
Unlimited tacos on Sunday.
Seafood nachos are amazing!
Food is a little pricey . Tacos are your best bet.
Chicken enchiladas are amazing
Chicken enchiladas and the queso !
Lettuce shell tacos ? Awesome!
Malo was excellent.
Mmm.....Good....
Just like the name- Bad.
I won't be back anytime soon. Drinks are overpriced and this is Mex-American food not worth the price.
A nice surprise. A very extensive list of specialty coffee drinks. If you haven't stopped by the Des Moines Social Club to check it out yet, let this coffee place be your excuse. - Allen Huffman
