Close your eyes, pretend the sound of cars passing by on McDowell is actually waves crashing on the shore of the Sea of Cortez, and let your taste buds take a beach vacation at San Carlos Bay, where you'll find the finest Sonoran-style seafood in town. Perfectly cooked shrimp dishes are plentiful here. No matter what you're craving, the menu has something for every mood, from tangy culichi-style shrimp, to fiery endiablados shrimp, to shrimp sautéed with octopus, onions, celery, and jalapeños in a light garlic sauce, served on a bed of French fries. (It sounds strange, but boy, is it tasty.) For something dramatic, try the snapper Veracruz, a whole fried fish blanketed in a chunky sauce of tomatoes, peppers, onions, and olives. And on a hot day, nothing will cool you down like San Carlos Bay's famous seven seas cocktail, with plump oysters, clams, squid, shrimp, and octopus in a chilled, cilantro-flecked tomato broth. It's the next best thing to seaside dining.
