" This restaurant has a unique charm with good seafood options. My only critique is the price; some items seemed a little high for what you receive. Still, the flavors were authentic, and the service attentive. I might come back for the combination platter. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting from out of town, I found El Barco based on a recommendation, and I have to say, it was fantastic! The seafood was fresh and delicious, truly authentic. I enjoyed every bite. The place was busy and energetic which added to the experience. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" There's no denying that El Barco knows how to serve seafood! I had a wonderful experience with their grilled shrimp platter which was bursting with flavor. The atmosphere is also lively—perfect for a dinner with friends. A bit pricey, but worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful find in the heart of the city! The seafood dishes, especially the ceviche, were outstanding. I found the service to be friendly and attentive. The only downside was the long wait for a table during peak hours, but it was worth it once we sat down. I’ll be returning for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Barco left me with a feeling of ambivalence. The service was very attentive, but my dish wasn’t cooked properly. I was disappointed because I heard a lot of good recommendations. I hope my next experience will have better food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family visited El Barco for dinner last weekend, and while the service was friendly, our food took a bit longer than expected to arrive. However, once it did, the taste made up for it! The ceviche was fresh and tangy, a perfect start to our meal. I would definitely recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a rough start with our order being mixed up, but the food was exceptional once we finally got it. The chicken enchiladas were authentic and full of flavor, which made the trip worthwhile. I’ll give them another chance, hoping for better service next time! " (*Curated Review*)
