    Today's visit was my second time to this Muelle 37 location. It is on the west side of Texas Blvd.,…read moreand couple of blocks north of Walmart and just south of Sugarcane Drive in Weslaco. The building is new and pristine, we'll landscaped, beautifully decorated with the typical Muelle 37 style of fishing piers, taxidermied game fish and a few pelicans. All bright colors, yet pleasant. There are some large screen TVs for those who keep up with sports. Background music is kept at a decent level for conversations until the birthday crew comes out dancing and singing dressed with samba sleeves when the Mexican mariachi birthday song (Las Mañanitas) announces it's time to celebrate someone's birthday. When that happens, just enjoy it, sing along or clap, as most customers do and with the person a happy birthday. Muelle 37 is an authentic Mexican seafood restaurant with an extensive menu that also includes some carne asada, a few antojitos, a children's menu, desserts, and a full bar. It is family friendly, and a great place for small groups, or even a business lunch. I would not consider it an intimate and romantic spot for a date, unless you really love Mexican seafood - and in that case, this is the place. I've been to more than one location of this growing local chain of restaurants and have always been impressed with the cleanliness, food quality, friendly service, and warm atmosphere. This time was no different. I got the fried fish and shrimp which comes with rice, French fries, salad (no dressing, Mexican style, but squeeze some lime on it!), and a cup of seafood soup broth. I guess it's my gringo blood, as I'd prefer some salad dressing and more vegetable choices. But this is an authentic Mexican style seafood restaurant and, having traveled extensively in Mexico, I can say they do it well. I don't drink alcohol, so I cannot comment on the full bar, but the limonada here is superb, just right. They also serve the typical fountain drinks. This location has a private parking lot. No street parking. Peak hours can be very busy as this is a popular restaurant, so we arrived at opening time and had our choice of seats. By 1:30 PM they were quite busy but still had open tables. I am posting pictures of the menu from their website as it is clearer than trying to take shots of the printed menu. Check them out, if you like seafood, I think you'll enjoy it. If you like Mexican style seafood, you'll love it!

    We visited Muelle 37 in Weslaco and had one of the worst dining experiences. My family and I were…read moreseated by the hostess, but after sitting for 10 minutes, no waiter or waitress ever came by to greet us or even take a drink order. We finally decided to leave, and when my husband told the hostess that no one had ever acknowledged our table, her response was dismissive and uncaring. That attitude made it worse. Needless to say, we will not be returning and will make sure to let others know about the poor service. Visitamos Muelle 37 en Weslaco y fue una de las peores experiencias. Mi familia y yo fuimos acomodados por la anfitriona, pero después de estar sentados más de 10 minutos, nunca se acercó ningún mesero o mesera a saludarnos ni a tomar la orden de bebidas. Decidimos levantarnos y salir, y cuando mi esposo le comentó a la anfitriona que nadie nos atendió, su respuesta fue indiferente y sin interés. Eso lo hizo aún peor. Definitivamente no regresaremos y compartiremos con otros el pésimo servicio que recibimos.
