El Sinaloense Restaurant — Restaurant in Baytown

Very disappointed!!! Didn’t want to drive far to eat mariscos and this spot had so many good reviews so I decided to give it a try! And was very disappointed!!! From start to finish!! Service wasn’t good! When we went in, nobody welcomed you in or even assisted you in sitting.. we were lost and just decided to wave hands to a guy who I believe was the owner and moved our shoulder Ana hands like “where?” He pointed to spots like “anywhere!” Ok, let’s just sit down and see if food makes up the rudeness. I was WRONG!! When we sat down, a lady who never made eye contact seem very agitated and in a hurry to not even slow down and listen to our order!!! Her eyes and body kept moving away while we were placing an order, rude!!! I was looking around the place and it seems like it has been here for quite a while so I wanted to see if the food was the reason because definitely the customer service??! WASN’T IT!

Food arrived and the caldo de mariscos that my husband order was the size of a dish for a child!!! Lacked flavor!! And had ramen noodle size shrimps!!! Ridiculous!!! And big chunks of potato!!! I ordered the wrapped bacon shrimp plate and it’s NOT the way it’s originally made!! It only had jalapeño and shrimp and reheat/refried bacon!!! It was old and you could taste and see it!!NEVER AGAIN!!!

Service!! And food go hand in hand and it was horrible!!! The ambience was just bland, no good enjoyable feeling at all!!

Advice to clean the window separating the tables!! Come on it doesn’t take that long!!! And the chairs too!!! Owner you should be ashamed because it shows you don’t take pride in your business at all!!!

Mariscos is very delicate and you serving people food that’s not up to the standards it should be!?? Is dangerous and this place definitely doesn’t pass...

I have to say that this place was really bad, food wise and aesthetically speaking. We came here because the reviews made this place seem good but unfortunately I just wasted my money. The food was horrible and the place was old. It wreaked of floor cleaner and just old.

My fried rice was red, due to the amount of sazón they added; the caldo de mariscos had a ton of cumino and salt. I love salt but I don’t like to drink it. The bread was squished and you could see the imprint of the persons finger. Please do not let the photos fool you.

I gave it one star bc the green salsa was decent.

I get it that this place is old and in the hood, but that doesn’t mean you cannot use some of the money on cooking lessons and revamping...

They'd get a higher score from me if they didn't charge for chips and salsa, not just refills, but for the very first bowl. Only place I know that like them that does that. They charge for refills of limonada and Iced Tea as well. They serve the ExxonMobil crowd for lunch and God knows those folks are made of money so the folks at El Sinaloense can get away with it and I still eat there occasionally but I'd eat there a lot more if they weren't charging extra for the Chips. Also for you local history buffs, it's located inside Old Baytown's old Chrysler...
