La Guerrerense

Chicago’s Best Mariscos Restaurants | Eater Chicago

"The vibe here is as laid-back as it gets — simple decor and attentive service. Named after the iconic marisquería born in Ensenada, La Guerrerense (the one from Guerrero) might make you think the joint is all about mariscos. And while a section of the menu is dedicated to Acapulco-style seafood, this spot offers much more among its regional offerings. Staples include shrimp or fish consommé served with tortillas, fried fish, seafood platters, a seafood-stuffed pineapple, and shrimp cooked in a variety of mouthwatering sauces. Be sure to try the shrimp cocktail, which pairs with the fried fish pescadillas. And don’t skip the aguas frescas. La Guerrerense is BYOB." - Brenda Storch
