El Terco Seafood - McAllen

We should have read the reviews which would have helped us avoid the bad experience! Our waitress looked like she didn't like her job. On top of that, when you walk in it smells like sewage mixed with some type of a cleaning chemical. It was our first time here and right away she wanted to take our order; we asked for a few minutes to review the menu. Well she never came back so we had to wave her down. The food was good but it will never be good enough to make up for the bad service. The waitress took our order, we got our food, and she never came back! As business owners and managers, we must learn to identify these issues and correct them right away.

They never disappoint, food is always fresh and hot and everything is super good. They lunch specials and are very reasonably priced.

Food is great, service is friendly. Only missing a star since tv was a little loud to where we couldn't hold a conversation (table under tv)

Fried fish and shrimp was very tasty hot fresh waitress needs to work on her attitude never mind her the food makes up for her attitude keep up the good work

Looks can be deceiving. The photos from the menu and the website will tell you a story of up ended/medium-high scale dining. Well this restaurant is not about it. HOWEVER… they do serve very tasteful and fresh dishes. I had the house fish filet with shrimp, white rice and steamed veggies which is supposed to be a house special and I actually loved it. They receive you with an awesome consome (which is heaven for the crowds carrying a hangover) and they will privide a quick service while focusing on your attention and needs. Was looking for a good restaurant to eat first time in town. This a great one.
