Chicago’s Best Seafood Restaurants | Eater Chicago

"This Sichuan restaurant debuted in the spring off Broadway, a few blocks south of the famous Asian on Argyle intersection. There are no reservations, and on peak weekend hours, around 6:30 p.m., be prepared for a bit of a wait. There is no seafood section on the menu, but there are seven options and two shrimp selections worth trying. The hot pot is a sizzling sensation of mala. But the main attraction is the crispy whole fish that is fried, but also can be steamed upon request. Be prepared for an overload of flavors, including garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and more. There’s parking in the neighboring lot if you’re lucky." - Sam Nelson
