Mariscos El Pirata is a hidden gem in Des Moines! 🌊🍤 The seafood fajitas were a showstopper - towering with a delicious mix that could feed three! My friends loved the guacamole and the salsas, both bursting with flavor.

The restaurant’s interior is beautifully remodeled, making it a comfortable dining spot. Our server was attentive and friendly, enhancing our experience. We enjoyed a range of drinks; however, I wish the drink menu provided more info on the ingredients.

Overall, fantastic portions at great prices. Can’t wait to return for more amazing seafood! 🥳👏
