Notable Picks

$$$ Lower West Side Seafood
A polished Pilsen mariscos room where the kitchen treats aguachiles, tostadas, and ceviches like chef-driven small plates—bright acids, clean seafood flavor, and confident heat. The menu rotates, but the best meals balance chilled bites (tuna tostada, scallop aguachile) with one warm, shareable plate before dessert.
Must-Try Dishes: Hokkaido scallop aguachile, Tuna tostada, Butter oysters
What makes it special: Chef-driven Mexican seafood with rotating, technique-forward aguachiles and tostadas.

Worthy Picks

$$ Lower West Side Seafood
A newer Sinaloa/Mazatlán-leaning mariscos spot built around bold salsas, cold seafood, and BYOB-friendly hangs. Order best when you treat it like a tight mariscos run: one aguachile, one tostada, and one hot plate—then stop before the table turns chaotic.
Must-Try Dishes: Aguachile verde, Seafood bag boil, Mixto tostada
What makes it special: New-school mariscos with Sinaloa-style flavors and BYOB energy.
