Las Islas Marias

This often-empty spot specializes in langostinos and ceviche, and while it shares its name with three other restaurants in town, the family member running the show here remains unaffiliated with the chain. Regardless, North Siders can satiate cravings for langostinos at this locale—coated in a garlicky, salty, fiery “seven-spice” mixture, they’re known to inspire die-hard fans. A jukebox full of Mexican tunes blares while patrons pop open beer, slurp seafood and channel a laid-back land.
