"Mexican seafood — mariscos — has seen a spike in popularity over the past few years in Chicago. But let’s not lose sight that there’s a great tradition of mariscos restaurants in the city, particularly in West Town. Try one of the family platters with heaping portions of Nayarit-style stuffed lobster, prawns, and more. Also, fans of fried snapper should be ready to stuff their stomachs. Alegrias is BYOB." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
