Review by Norris Hodkiewicz

Mariscos El Capitan has become my new go-to spot for seafood in Des Moines! 🦐✨ I tried the shrimp tacos with chipotle sauce, and they were bursting with flavor - seriously, the best I've had! My husband loved his seafood served in a pineapple with a creamy sauce.

The service was impeccable; our server was friendly and knowledgeable, really enhancing our experience. The atmosphere was casual yet cosy, making it perfect for our laid-back dinner. Plus, their margaritas were fantastic! Can't wait to return and try the seafood tower! 🌊🥳
