Reviews for Malolam in El Paso, TX
Malolam has always been an establishment that I've cherished. I'd come on Sundays although it's one of their busiest days, but... service was always on point. Now...I'm not sure what happened. New manager or owner?? We waited for a table. Ok. However oncewe were seated we waited for over 30 mins and no one came to offer a drink or take our order. There are plenty of establishmentsin El Paso. I will gladly take our business elsewhere; one that takes care of their patrons. Read more
We went to a friends birthday celebration on Saturday evening. The attention from the staff was really good. The cocktails and... food we ordered were very tasteful. Read more
I want to like this place. My husband and I will not be returning. We decided to eat dinner and have drinks here two nights in a... row. Friday night was exceptional! Thus 3 ?? s! Our waiter was wonderful and on point. The drink shown in my pictures(a paloma)and our mushroom tacos were great. The waiter was very good about explaining the choices of mezcal and what the kitchen had runout of. The price seemed fair. The energy of this place was fun. Then we made the mistake of going again Saturday night. Aboutthe same time of day. It was a disaster. The waitress was not good. We are from out of town (still south texas though) and Iordered a michelada. My husband ordered a paloma. He literally was served mezcal and soda water or something like that and I wasserved a glass 1/4 full of lime juice. And a beer on the side. Then the waitress tried to help us? ??????? She went back andjust made his drink stronger and told me I wanted a clamato drink. The tacos my husband ordered were served with o e he did notorderand she was like well the kitchen is out? The manager stopped by and actually was insulting banging my glass down when Itold him our meal was going terrible. He said well you don?t know what a michelada is this is a michelada what you wanted was ared beer.And so forth and so on. Hey bud the customer should not be insulted. He did remove the drink price from our bill. I didnot eat my food because I was over it. Lots of other great options in El Paso. So 3 ?? s! For Friday -0 stars for Saturday. Read more
We had to sit at the bar which an underwhelming experience. The bartenders/servers weren?t friendly or attentive. Everything was... sticky! Was my first time there and definitely not going back. A little pricey for food quality. Read more
Lovely lounge with great staff. The food was a little too spicy though. Over all I loved the ambience. Great place to hang with... friends at night!! Read more
I had such high expectations! It looks like such a cool place. We had to hunt down a waiter to order, and again to pay. We... saw people who arrived after us being served. The food was great. I would not go back. Read more
Malolam is a bright and colorful spot in the Montecillo Apartment area. I went with my friend who had come into town for the... weekend. I got the carne asada tacos with the corn and my girlfriend got the Malolam Tacos with the corn. The main thing I haveto say is that the tacos were definitely good, but no way were they worth $6 each. Our server was very confused as well, notgiving us a single menu the entire time stating that they didn't have any and didn't mention the prices of the tacos herecommended. I will probably be back again, but I am going to need them to either lower their prices or have way better servicenext time for my review to change. Read more
what a awful experience! first time ever going here, we heard great things about this place! never again! a came into town FROM... GA, and we live around the neighborhood and got told my GA drivers license was ? fake? & i asked to speak to the manager & ?the door guys ? were manager, and GM? told me i can call the police to basically prove our ids are ?real?, or show him our ?fb?!!?! sat there for 5 minutes arguing with this guy @ the door with dreads. i would hate for him to be a manager of my store.will never recommend this place.
