Mariscos El Dorado Sin 2

The Best Seafood Restaurants in Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix

"A staple in South Phoenix and Glendale, Mariscos El Dorado Sinaloa has been serving up seafood Sinaloan-style since 2015, first as a pop-up, then as a food truck, and then expanding into their two locations over the following five years. Having just renovated the Phoenix restaurant, diners can enjoy the signature Molcajete El Dorado, which overflows with octopus, fish, and shrimp in a traditional stone bowl, underneath a Kahlo-esque mural. With more than 120 items on the menu, including some killer sushi rolls, this family-owned restaurant slings seafood in virtually any form. One of the best options are botanas, or “snacks,” here manifesting as dishes piled high with shrimp and octopus prepared in a variety of ways. Make sure to try one of the ceviche or aguachile options, which have been a menu mainstay since the pop-up days." - Asonta Benetti
