Las Cazuelas Restaurant

Mariscos (house seafood dishes)

Pacific-coast-style shrimp and mixed seafood preparations with bold chile-based sauces — the kitchen's clearest strength given the dual categorization

Cazuela stew

The namesake clay-pot preparation — a slow-cooked meat or seafood stew with deeply reduced sauce, earthy and rich from the vessel itself

Caldo de mariscos

Brothy, chile-tinged seafood soup packed with shrimp, fish, and vegetables — the kind of restorative bowl that rewards the patient diner

Camarones a la diabla

Shrimp in a fiery red chile sauce — a litmus test dish for this kitchen's heat tolerance and sauce depth
