My wife and I went to Mariscos Cazo de Oro last week. This is a place that could be easily overlooked. We walk inside and find a rather casual place(not bad). It kind of looks like a palapa or bar in the inside with a stage for a band and perhaps karaōke. We were originally greeted in Spanish by the attendant. Not a problem, as I know Spanish. Eventually another person came by and took our order(thank goodness he spoke English). We ordered the following: 1) Camarones de cucaracha. This is a bit of a strange name, as literally the word cucaracha refers to cockroach. That was not the case. The camarones(shrimps) were grilled perfectly. You could eat them head and all. They were tasty. 2) Parrillada Mariscos Mixta. Mixed grilled seafood. It has some oysters, squid, crab, shrimp, and conch. It was grilled with a bunch of peppers and onion. It was good. This is enough for two people. Even that was a bit of a huge portion size for me. Overall, the food was very good. My wife, originally from Vietnam, had no problems with the seafood, and found it very fresh. The only thing worth noting is that I do not drink alcohol. As a result I did not drink and beer or anything. Perhaps what we ate would have gone well with beer, but I do not drink alcohol. My wife and I had a good experience here. It is a small, casual, place. We will definitely come back here. We just hope that this place gets more business, and is able to stay open. We want this restaurant to be profitable and stay open. They need more business. If you are a little adventurous, and ready to try something dramatically different. Go to this place. I bet that what you experience will be very similar to some kiosk or walkup in Rocky Point(Puerto Penasco) when it comes to seafood.

Found this spot randomly driving down Main… I’m not an expert when it comes to Mexican seafood cuisine by any means, but we Googled the place and saw photos of some of the most enticing oysters I’ve seen in my days… Went there the next day; was a bit odd as all the lights were out, but the owner came out and accommodated us. The oysters were sooooooo good. Pricey! But very good. The owner also talked to us about the spot and the differences between folk in Mesa as opposed to Phoenix and their attitudes on partying… Then we watched the Larry David show on HBO on the tv while eating. It was pretty surreal… But the oysters were fantastic. They even let me take she shells home — and they even cleaned them for me! Honest people.
