Nice service but prices are high ad the food is horrible. I paid $15 for 6 small shrimp on some subpar rice, string french fries and two slices if bagette... their wrapped jalapenos were $11 for THREE soaked in soy sauce and the shrimp were not even devaned. It is a trap, the lemonade was good though... dont stay to be nice, just leave!! Everything inside is still coko loco colorful and clean. I didnt take pics... but get up and walk out.. dont be nice, tip the waitress, not her fault!

I really enjoy seafood. In fact, every time I see food, I eat it! Thank you. I'll be here all week…read more Seriously though, I do enjoy a good seafood restaurant. And I was pleasantly surprised when I found this place in El Paso, Texas. For starters, you sort of have to navigate your way around a second parking lot to get to it, but it is worth the adventure. Walking through the door. Door. They have a very nicely kept greeting station with a bar off to the left. So I made my way to the bar for a drink before dinner After my drink I went and got seated waited for the rest of my party. Looked over the menu and asked for suggestions. The chef's specials are always on point I was told so I opted for the blackened red snapper etouffee. Wow, what an amazing dish! And the presentation was off the hook. The spices were on point. Everything was cooked to perfection and it was just a very good dinner experience. Service was a little slow, I think that they weren't prepared for a party of 20 even though we had a reservation. Had it not been for the very slow service I probably would have given them five stars. But hey it's a improvement point. Bottom line? If you are in El Paso and you are looking for a nice upscale seafood place that has a casual feel, you could definitely check this place out.!

Hubs had the fish n' chips but really enjoyed the onions strings. I had the almond crusted mahi-mahi. Delicious!! If we're ever back in town, we will stop by again.

This is the perfect meal to a cold day, to clear your sinuses, or just to eat something that tastes sooo good and will fill you up. The fish soup is well seasoned, large chunks of fish and veggies, and served with a side of rice and toasted buttery bread. This fish soup always hits the spot. My wife sometimes orders the buttered fish, or battered fish, and both are delicious. Served with with mashed potatoes or thin-cut fries (we prefer the fries), and a side salad, you'll definitely get full. Even the kids meal fish and chips plate is enough to feed an adult. They could improve on the flavor of their tartar sauce, and sometimes the salsa is a hit or miss, but the delicious (and free) chips and ceviche more than makes up for that.

We accidentally found El Barco Marinero after attending an event nearby. My daughter was hungry, so we looked around for somewhere she could get carne asada and decided to give this place a try after seeing the great reviews. I'm so glad we did! It's a huge restaurant and you can tell it's family-owned and run. There were family and kids in the corner doing homework on their computers, which I thought was so sweet. Before we even ordered, they brought us complimentary ceviche with chips AND soup. Both were delicious and tasted incredibly fresh. I ordered the Baja fish tacos and my daughter got the carne asada tacos. The portions were VERY generous, especially for the prices. The fish tacos were fresh, crispy and loaded, but the carne asada really surprised me. It was tender, flavorful and honestly some of the best carne asada I've had. The service was also wonderful. I was already pretty full, so they happily boxed everything up for us to take home. I was genuinely surprised to see the restaurant so quiet on a Sunday because the food, portions, prices and service were all excellent. Definitely one of those tucked-away El Paso restaurants I'm really happy we stumbled across. We'll be back! El Barco Marinero 1212 N Yarbrough Dr Ste 307 El Paso, TX 79925

They are so delicious, it is probably my favorite part! As an appetizer we always get the elote botanero, they are always a hit! We've tried a lot of items from the menu such as the arrachera, the chile relleno, costillas Palenque, Pollo Chipotle. Literally EVERYTHING has been so amazing. The service is always great, from the hostess to our servers and even the managers who always seem to be out on the floor making sure everything runs smoothly. I love the atmosphere. It feels so elegant, as if you are in a very high-end restaurant. However, the prices are very accessible. We've gone on several occasions like Valentines week, Mother's Day Week, and they always have amazing decorations, perfect for pictures! Palenque will always be a restaurant I recommend! Definitely try it if you haven't already!
