Was Amy Powell at Mal Pan a mag?
Based on the menu and food descriptions, I was expecting upscale Mexican cuisine, and I was not disappointed! However, the overall atmosphere of the restaurant was more casual than I anticipated, with more than half of the seating located on a covered patio, possibly due to the weather during my visit. I don’t mean this in a negative way—I genuinely enjoyed it! I’ve heard great things about brunch here, but I want to... View all feedback.

What Arie V dislikes about Mal Pan:
The ambiance is nice, the drinks are good. I only recommend coming here for drinks and the chips, salsa, and guacamole. The food is not good, the street corn is watery and bland. I wish I read the reviews before visiting so that I would have just gotdrinks. They need to do better with the food that this place offers. It’s not cooked up to par, the shrimp tacos tasted liketomato sauce was poured over them and served.... View all feedback.

I've heard little about this restaurant, but I'm so glad my husband and I chose to get takeout from here. We shared a Torta de Cochinita Pibil and a Surf Turf Burrito, and both were fantastic. I preferred the burrito between the two, but you really can't go wrong with either option. The bread on the torta did get a bit soggy, which is typical for takeout, but the sandwich was still delicious. I’m truly impressed by any sandwich that stands up well during takeout. I would love to return and dine in to fully enjoy the experience, as there were plenty of other menu items I’d like to try!

I've visited several times, and I consistently enjoy coming here. The food is both exceptional and unique. I've tried various dishes from the menu, and they've all been fantastic. My favorites are the queso fundido with chorizo and the enchiladas en cazuela from the dinner menu. The atmosphere and service are great as well.

The food is over priced forthe quality to be trash.
