    Multiple calls made and no answer.
    Adolfo S.

    First and foremost, 15 calls were made to the restaurant to place an order to go, and no answer from anyone. Once at the restaurant, I asked the person at the front why they weren't answering and she said the phones were not working. However, the phone was ringing. Once the order was placed, she did tell me it would take anywhere between 40-50 min., which was fine. Approaching the hour, I went up to counter and asked how much longer. The young lady rolled her eyes and asked for my name. I receive my order and I'm missing multiple items, and she laughed it off. I've always been a fan of this restaurant and have never had such bad service. I'm understanding of situations and can see when a place is short handed. I'm just not so understanding when your rude and decide to lie and roll your eyes.

    Fried red snapper
    Alicia D.

    First time trying this place and it was amazing! The seafood broth was soooo good that we ordered extra. We ordered the fried red snapper and the boneless red snapper. Everything was good from the food to the service. Marta was our waitress and she is very attentive and nice.

    three appetizers on a white plate

    Excelente atención siempre. La comida es deliciosa y muy bien servida, definitivamente un restaurante muy recomendable para comer en familia. Este lugar es un 10/10.

    You say you like Mexican seafood and chicharron de pescado? Then this is the place you want to visit. Hands down one of the best places to get some good fish in the Valley. I was first introduced to the wonderful food in this place by a good friend and former client who brought a huge order of fish to my law office. Ever since then I've been in love with this place and always try and stop by when I go by the San Juan Shrine. Even after it has been transported from San Juan to McAllen, the food retains its delicious flavor and you can just imagine what it is like fresh at the restaurant. Try the chicharron de pescado! You'll love the crispy fillets and the fresh tortillas. They have good salsa verde to go along with it, or a decent tartar sauce if that is your garnish of choice. I give this place a great rating and recommend it to all my friends out there. You won't be disappointed.

    Aguachiles! Highly recommend.

    Great starter salsas and chips! I had the aguachiles. Exactly what I wanted. Will be back soon

    Styrofoam fish plate.

    The food is good when dining in but take out is a different story. After many attempts of explaining that the heat from the fish melts the styrofoam plate giving it a terrible taste. Uploaded a photo for proof maybe this will change their ways and use a liner from now on. Just dine in.

    Food is good but They can work on bettering their staff. Not worth the gratuity that they force upon the customer.

    Muelle 37 - Red snapper (huauchinango)

    Muelle 37

    3.0(3 reviews)
    3.7 mi

    This Muelle 37 is a new location for the popular regional chain of Mexican style seafood…read morerestaurants. These facilities are brand new, beautifully decorated, spacious, clean, and was packed today, Sunday afternoon. At 3 PM we had a 20 minute wait, and the line became longer during our visit. I was there with friends. The menu can be found online at the link. While they specialize in seafood, they also offer fajitas and other beef dishes. We started off with chips and salsa and some seafood soup broth. Then our entrees arrived. I got the red snapper "al mojo de ajo" (with garlic). It was served with rice, salad (which had no salad dressing, Mexican style), French fries, and toast (similar to Texas toast). They offered tartar sauce, lime, or various hot salsas to add as you wish. My food was well prepared and delicious. The French fries were hot and crispy. The fish was fresh. The rice also had a good flavor. I enjoyed my meal. The atmosphere is half sports bar (large screens everywhere) and half family restaurant. Half of the screens had sporting events, but the other half had images of cute animals like puppies and bunnies, which kept children entertained. There were also many game fish of various kinds hanging on the wall... whether plastic or taxidermied real fish I do not know but it was done tastefully. My only other comment is that there was enough noise between the customers and the TVs, that it was challenging for me to hear my friends' conversation. The server did a very good job and was attentive to our needs. I'd definitely return. I enjoyed it, and if you like Mexican style seafood, you will also.

    Grate food ,grate service we order the botanita plate to share shrimp,fish and octopus we love it…read more And we also order the 3 fish chicharrón plate delicious and that have happy hour 1/2 price micheladas and beer
