"Marinero’s has a little something we like to call Big Pirate Boat Energy—there are anchor logos everywhere, and an alarming amount of rope in the rowdy dining room. We’re confident Blackbeard would have enjoyed the seafood-heavy menu and strawberry frozen margaritas (which, as you can probably guess, will also be brought to you on your waiter’s head). Marinero’s is known for its marlin, and we like it in the burrito with fries, or on toast with green salsa. " - barbara gutierrez
