Although the restaurant (a converted house) is somewhat crowded, the patio offers relief from the bustling dining room. Order kabobs with juicy shrimp and scallops as an appetizer to share before tackling your main course. Camaron Azteca is a hearty mix of Guaymas shrimp, cheese, onion, tomato, and salsa, served in a lava rock bowl. Less ambitious diners can try ceviche or calamari or simply nibble on first-rate chips and salsa.
