Chuy's Fiestas
Included In
Whenever the craving for juicy aguachile and tender quesabirria hits, our internal GPS always leads us to Chuy’s Fiestas. The menu at this Mexican spot has everything from enchiladas rojas to pozole rojo, but you should focus on the seafood. The right strategy here is to load up your table with as many dishes as can fit, eat family-style, and wash it all down with one of their massive micheladas through a tamarind straw. Each dish, from the shrimp in the molcajete mixto to the aguachile, tastes like it was personally handed to you by a fisherman straight off the boat. If you luck out and stop by here on a sunny day, snag a spot in their surprisingly big back patio. While we can’t promise it’ll make you feel at one with the sea, eating some fish outside somehow always feels like a vacation.
