    Tuna Tostada
    Wajhi K.

    Mariscos San Pedro is a place I thought only existed in my imagination...A fresh seafood taco spot that goes above and beyond freshness but well thought through flavors, dishes and a theme that flows so easily. All the highlighted dishes are worth every bite and as an added bonus you have a fun bar downstairs called the punchhouse and a classic theater upstairs in Thalia Hall so you never have to leave.

    Octopus Sonoran Dog!
    Ahmad O.

    Well hello, Mariscos San Pedro, and welcome to my "Best Meal Ever" list lol. I've been to Thalia Hall so many times and I'm embarrassed I never noticed this gem next door. Everything we ate was made with such an original point of view. The Octopus Sonoran dog was amazing, the lobster quesabirria taco was tender and flavorful, the elotes galette was flaky and seasoned perfectly, and the "masa-ron" dessert was the most unique dessert I've seen in a very long time. This place was hopping on a Thursday evening and the waitress didn't miss a beat. I HAVE to come back here and you should too!

    taco sampler - A seafood dish served on a gray rectangular plate includes lime wedges, a crispy breaded item, and a fish fillet topped with herbs, chopped nuts, and sauces. The presentation features fresh garnishes like coleslaw and herbs, with a small metal cup of sauce. The setting appears to be a restaurant with a wooden table and glassware in the background.

    I've heard raving reviews about this spot, so this restaurant has been on my list for awhile! Snagging a weekday evening reservation was fairly easy (it wasn't busy at all), and the service and ambiance is nice. Now this is based on what I got. I didn't get any of the marketplace priced items (whole fish dishes etc) so those could be where this spot shines. They do have an extensive ceviche list; i tried the scallop ceviche which was mediocre honestly (recommend getting another one). I also got the torched oysters with the spicy butter, which was my favorite thing. Also got the taco sampler, and honestly the only good taco was the battered cod one (the other two were not great IMO). My friend got the surf and turf platter, which didn't really come with much surf (shrimp) or turf (steak) for the price. Overall l, it's okay but seemed to be more overhyped than anything

    Soft shell crab taco! So fire!!!!

    First, when we walked the hostess was cold and unfriendly so my expectations were low from that vibe. Then we met our waitress-- Mali, a breath of fresh air. She was the perfect server and you can just tell she loves her job and takes pride. She knew the menu well, explained it all nicely and all her suggestions were spot on. I was asking a lot of questions and she was patient and if she didn't know the answer she went to find the answer. Over all the our waitress made our experience extra special, thank you Mali. Now you the food-- y'all!!! The food was fantastic and so flavorful. Every dish was different and delicious, not one complaint. We ate: Eel tostada -- this was our favorite, I could of eaten 3 of these. It was so good and the flavors were each unique. Korean fried cobia collar- this was a lot of food! Another great dish; bone in fish fried to perfection with delicious sides Soft shell crab taco- fire!! I've never had a taco like this and we were blown away. Granizado dessert- I was emotional eating this because of how good it was this dessert has so much layers to it, every bite was a piece of heaven. I would of gotten another one if I wasn't so full. The N/A bloody Mary was excellent as well! This dining experience was really amazing and we can't wait to return.

    Octopus Sonoran Dog - The image shows a dish of grilled octopus sonoran dog, consisting of grilled octopus on a bun, garnished with fresh herbs such as parsley and microgreens. The dish is presented on a decorative plate with red and white patterns, emphasizing Mexican coastal cuisine. The plate is placed on a surface with a purple cloth or table covering.

    Ambiance - super cute, modern, spacious, love the interior design Service - exceptional, our server was so sweet and offered us menu recs Food - love love love their ceviche and the sauce they paired it with, the octopus sonoran was my favorite (octopus was cooked to perfection)

    Mussels and fries
    Clarissa C.

    Elevated Mexican seafood restaurant perfect for a date night or a cute experience with friends! We were immediately captivated by the bold and fun colors on the wall and the menu. They were a James Beard semi finalist in 2025 and named one of the best restaurants in Chicago, and the top best new restaurant of 2024. Ofc course I had to come try! For two ppl, we shared three dishes and had leftovers!! The coctel was a ceviche with shrimp, octopus, mussels, and avocado. I loved how fresh every ingredient tasted, the octopus was just the right amount of chew, and the shrimp were large and plump. Superrr refreshing dish served with two tostadas. We also got the tuna tostadas which comes with black garlic, salsa macha, and avocado! This is their most popular dish, but I found it a bit salty. Tasted a bit like chili oil with tuna, which is an interesting combo with the Asian flare. Finished with the mussels and fries - WOW!! What a GENEROUS portion!! Granted it was $32... but it came with a big bowl of shoestring fried and whole piece of french bread, and at least 30-40 mussels. The sauce was this creamy chipotle lime that was so drinkable and delish! Service is great, and the busser was sooooo adorable I wanted to give that guy a big hug!

    Cali Burrito
    Jose C.

    I'm not sure what it is with this particular address and its slow service. Last time we were in this building was when Duseks was still here and we experience extremely slow service that day. This time around, we decided to come for brunch on a Sunday, and experienced the same damn thing. Slow service. The food was good though. I ordered their Cali Burrito, my wife ordered their Blue Corn Tlacoyo, me and my son shared their Baja Fish Tacos and my daughter ordered their pancakes. We did ask for everything to be brought out together but they decided to ignore that and brought my burrito about 10 minutes before everyone else's dish. Not wanting the my burrito to get cold, I ate about half the burrito before the rest of the dishes came out. The pancakes are good and my wife's Tlacoyo was delicious. It came with a fried egg, black beans, crema and salsa. The Cali Burrito came with marinated steak & shrimp, fries, pico de gallo, avocado, and aioli all inside the burrito. Yes it could have used more steak in there, but overall a very delicious burrito. The Baja Fish Tacos were also good. The fish was fried perfectly, the aioli was good, but would have preferred a wetter slaw with the pickled onions and a chipotle red sauce to go along with the aioli. That's my preference and that's how they serve it in Ensenada, Mexico. We will definitely be returning.

    TLDR: GET THE MUSSELS!! Great food at great prices! Came here on a Friday night after a couple of cocktails at our favorite cocktail bar, The Alderman, and it did not disappoint! Everything we ordered tasted fresh! We got the oysters, Hokkaido Scallops, Tuna Tostada, Mussels & Fries, and fried collar (it was on the chef's special menu). I think we might've gotten a couple more things but we ate it before we took pictures so I can't remember lol. Honestly, there wasn't a single item that we didn't like! Literally, everything we ate was FANTASTIC. Especially the spicy mussels! It comes out in a giant pot, FYI. I was not prepared for how big this dish was. We ordered it at the very end, thinking it'll be a nice way to end our meal... which it was, but it could've fed a small family. It packs just the right amount of heat, and the fries and bread are a match made in heaven with this dish! I can see why our server eats this every day. Until now, Franklin Room's Spicy Miso Mussels were my favorite, but now I'm not sure... We'll definitely be back to try their Omakase menu!

    Mussels & frites 100/10
    Melissa R.

    Flavors! Seafood! Vibes! This spot is not to be missed if you're looking for a semi-upscale night out. With a menu focused on seafood, Mexican flavors inspire truly phenomenal dishes split between a cold, hot and mains menu meant for sharing. Dishes not to miss: mussels (served with frites and hunk of French bread); lobster birria quesadilla (this is a fall menu item and DAMN DELICIOUS); squash side (this was a seasonal item but not too be missed: squash purée with squash bites, cotija, salsa matcha amazingness). I'd skip the crab Rangoon empanadas but I can't wait to go back and try more.

    Our server gave excellent recommendations, and one of them ended up being my favorite being the mussels with fries. It was perfectly seasoned and comforting. The tuna tostada was also unique, with a nutty undertone that took me a minute to get used to but grew on me quickly. Scallops were another standout, especially in the sauce they came with. Great service, great seafood.

    came here for a family dinner around 5:15pm and we had a nice time. the wait staff was friendly and helpful in informing us of the various menu options. we ordered a few different things and the standouts were probably the snapper ceviche, the butter oysters, the octopus dog, and the esquites. the snapper ceviche was very fresh and tasty, and the sauce it came in was also fresh and delicious and perfectly tart. the butter oysters were interesting, it tasted like they put some kind of spicy mayo and then a lot of tajin on top. the octopus dog was really good- it somehow tasted like a hot dog kinda which was really interesting. my family didn't like the esquites and said it was too vinegary and the corn wasn't very sweet but i actually thought it was delicious and savory and buttery goodness. overall, i thought the atmosphere and vibe of this place was lovely and the food was overall good. i know my family can be kinda particular so im also accounting for that.

    Everything here was great! The seafood was super fresh and was highlighted perfectly by the chefs balance of flavors for each dish. These "simple" dishes were elevated by the right amount of spicy heat, Mexican seasoning, and citrusy brightness , making every bite delicious. My favorite were between the achiote oysters, camarones al pastor and the snapper ceviche...I couldn't decide which was the best. The mussels were also delicious and it comes with fries and a fresh roll of bread, perfect for dipping into the delicious sauce. This menus is perfect for sharing. Making it great so you can try a little bit of everything. The service was also amazing. They were very attentive and accommodating even when it was busy. Shout out to my server Heaven who made the experience extra memorable. Definitely a must try!

    Octopus Sonoran dog
    Kendra M.

    My goal is to try 50 new Chicago restaurants in 2025! Restaurant: 3/50 Month tried: January Favorite dish: Hokkaido Scallop Aguachile My husband had been dying to go here and it lived up to the hype!! So many fresh and delicious seafood options. I definitely recommend coming with a group, because you'll want to try everything. The Hokkaido Scallop Aguachile was easily the best dish, and we still talk about it months later. The lobster crawfish quesabirria and sablefish were other standouts. Surprisingly, the octopus Sonoran dog was not as popular as the group expected it to be. We were also surprised that the nopales were not a veggie side but rather a cheese dip. Still yummy though!

It was no wonder when we arrived that there was a line out the door. We waited around 45 minutes, and the bouncer was a really nice fellow who kept track of the numbers and people at the door. Upon entering, we were immersed in a dimly lit retro-style lounge. It was quite loud inside and packed as we walked to our seats. The server was great at taking our orders and offering suggestions. I opted for the French 75, which featured sparkling wine and mixed gin, brandies, and citrus. The drink was delicious, but STRONG. I don't know what they put in the cocktails in America, but I am always finished after one drink. Needless to say, we were all struggling to finish our own drinks. My favourite touch was the coasters, I ended up keeping all of them so that I can reuse them at my galentines event next year. The 'bisous' with the kiss on the other side is a perfect touch! I think the drinks are fairly priced for USD. I would love to return someday to try other drinks and bar bites, and also try their sister bar, Sparrow.

Imagine my shock when we didn't even make it past the bouncer because he was so rude, AS OTHER RECENT REVIEWS HAVE MENTIONED AS WELL! We had dinner nearby and walked to Bisous after, and saw there was a line of 5 or 6 people outside. We expected this as we knew Bisous is a first come, first serve bar. We were curious what the wait time would look like, so we approached the front door to ask a host or employee inside (we assumed there'd be a desk with an employee working it who could give us a wait time). We had no problem waiting, just wanted to see how long they estimated it would be! Before we could even fully open the door, the bouncer swung the door open from the other side and hit me with the door. I stumbled back a few steps and he looked at us and said, and I quote, "What do you want?". I laughed at first because I thought he was joking and putting on a tough guy act. He was not. We quickly explained we just wanted to see what the wait time was, and he said "don't you see there's a line outside?" We said yes, and explained we just wanted to know a rough estimated wait time. He just blankly stared at us while ushering us out. Both my boyfriend and I have worked in customer-service roles for a very, very long time. This encounter was not only extremely rude and unprofessional, but he also hit me hard enough with the door to send me stumbling back, and then said nothing about it and continued to address us in a tone that was nothing less than annoyed and irritated. We didn't end up going inside because that encounter left such a bad taste in our mouths. I don't believe in spending my money at establishments that don't treat their customers with the bare minimum respect they deserve! Bummed we didn't get to experience it, as I'm sure it was lovely inside and I can only hope the rest of the employees were much more kind and accommodating, or at least able to answer a simple question. Fire your "bouncer" (??) and hire someone with some basic customer service and communication skills!!

After my drink next door, I would be remiss if I didn't stop in. What I got was one of the more unique and interesting cocktails I'd tried! It was the Sick Day, and while I don't command the English language or my palate enough to do it justice, I can tell you that it was definitely a great sipper. The absinthe mist, despite being just that, has a way of doing that. I want to give some credit to the service. While the bar was shorthanded at the time, the barman on duty did his very best as a one-man show. Can't fault them too much, someone calls out sick last minute, and that's that. However, if there is something I can hold against them it's the heat! I'm not sure why, but the upon coming in, the place was HOT! After settling in, it became more bearable, but this is the kind of thing that sometimes persuades me to leave before I order anything.
