Our Story

A little taste of the Mexican coast, right here on Cactus Road.

Molcajete de mariscos with shrimp, octopus and scallops, with fried shrimp behind

Hecho con sabor de la costa

Mariscos El Molcajete brings bold, coastal-style Mexican seafood to Peoria — bright lime-cured ceviches, spicy aguachiles, bacon-wrapped chiles toritos and our signature molcajetes.

Pull up a chair with family, grab a seat at the bar with friends, and stay for one more michelada.
