This family-owned, seafood-focused Mexican spot has multiple locations throughout the city. Look for a variety of ceviches and oysters on the half shell to start, and entrees such as whole grilled fish, seafood platters and "seven seas" soup with shrimp, octopus, fish, clams, oysters and cayo (a kind of avocado). Shrimp empanadas are among the most popular offerings, but if you're nursing a hangover, try one of the seafood cocktails, served hot or cold and loaded with everything from shrimp to octopus (they're said to have curative properties). Expect a crowd on weekends.

"Great food a little expensive..."

Great food a little expensive though, but once in a while doesn't hurt your pocket.
