" I've tried a lot of taco places in the area, but El Malecon takes the cake! I can't get enough of their al pastor tacos – they're juicy and bursting with flavor. The atmosphere is vibrant yet cozy, making it a perfect stop for a quick bite or a casual meal. The prices are reasonable given the quality and quantity of food. Highly recommend!
