Incredible Mexican Seafood in Chicago — Mariscos San Pedro 🦞🌶️

On New Year's Eve 2023, the beloved Dusek's closed, making way for Mariscos San Pedro — a Mexican seafood spot by chefs Marcos Ascencio, Oliver Poilevey, and Antonio Incandela. If those names don’t ring a bell, maybe their other restaurants will: Obélix and Taqueria Chingon. 🦐 Ceviche + Aguachile Cocktel – A blend of both classics: shrimp, mussels, avocado in a tangy-spicy citrus marinade. Served with both tortilla chips and saltines — dip your way! 🐟 Tuna Tostada – Fresh, fatty tuna topped with avocado and chili sauce that tasted surprisingly like Chinese Lao Gan Ma — in a good way! 🐙 Octopus Sonoran Dog – A luxury take on the Mexican street dog: grilled octopus leg with avocado salsa, pico de gallo, and crispy chili — more savory than spicy. 🦆 Duck Tamale – Steamed masa filled with rich duck meat and their house mole sauce — generous and comforting. 🦞 Lobster & Langostino Quesabirria – Birria meets quesadilla, stuffed with lobster and langostino, served with a dipping lobster consommé. Cheesy, seafood-y, and absolutely addictive. This spot is a perfect Mexi-American fusion — maybe not “authentic,” but definitely delicious. Portions are generous, so bring friends to share and try more! 📍 Mariscos San Pedro 1227 W 18th St, Chicago, IL 60608 #MariscosSanPedro #MexicanSeafood #ChicagoEats #PilsenChicago #ChefCollaboration
