Beware ordering online—I order online and paid (have the receipt) but the restaurant never got the order. The staff was quick to make the order once I showed the receipt, so 5 stars for that, but the website is iffy.“

“jumbo shrimp with cajun sauce. the best“

“Some of the best seafood I’ve ever had!!! My family and I usually order the shrimp cocktail, raw shrimp ceviche, fish tacos, empanadas, aguachile negro.. But you really can’t go wrong with ordering here. Everything will be delicious. They’re fast, quality of seafood is excellent, and they’re not greedy with tostadas or crackers for to go orders. Also not greedy with the amount of shrimp your cocktail will have unlike some places that give you three shrimps at best lol. One time we accidentally got charged twice for a pickup order and they refunded us super quick and were apologetic over the honest mistake. I can’t recommend this seafood truck enough!!!“

“Fish and chips are awesome. Shrimp skewer is delicious. Good value for the price.“

“The best Yemeni restaurant in USA I believe. Has the taste and smile of authentic Yemeni dishes. I highly recommend to any one visiting LA ..“

“jumbo shrimp with cajun sauce. the best“

“The artistic name of the bistro matches the artistry and delicious flavors of the cuisine. A threesome: vegetarian, vegan, and carnivore found a multitude of savory options. Our waiter/thesbian: Chris was charming and anticipated our every request. Foreseeing a return.“

“You guys contine to create some the theeeee best food I have ever eaten. The shrimp and fish tacos are 2-die-4, so good! I'd reccomend you to anyone I know!“

“All About Poke was a good Poke bowl experience, in my opinion. I had tried it before at other locations and remembered it being satisfactory for when I had a poke craving, and after a medium (three protein scoops) bowl I was again satisfied. Notably the salmon and tuna tasted quite fishy in some bites, and pineapple was the only standard fruit option besides mandarin orange slices (which I don’t want to try on poke, personally). But overall, they had most of the standard toppings like edamame, crab, cucumber, ginger, etc, their sauces were tasty, and they served a sizable portion of rice, fish and toppings all. All About Poke will hit the spot if you are nearby and need a nice fresh lunch.“

“Great seafood and lively atmosphere!
Mariscos El Viejito is a great spot if you’re craving authentic Mexican seafood. The aguachiles and ceviche are fresh and full of flavor, and the portions are generous. The micheladas are also on point. The place can get busy, especially on weekends, and the music is loud, but it adds to the fun vibe. Service can be a bit slow at times, but the staff is friendly. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the mood for mariscos!“

“Best Poke and friendliest staff in AZ!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Ceviche Lover's Paradise!

Mariscos Camanera Estilo Nayarit (a food truck) is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic, fresh seafood in LA. From the moment we tried their ceviches, my friend and I were both blown away by the incredible freshness of the fish, shrimp and veggies- fresh, zesty, and bursting with pure ocean flavor that tasted like it was caught just moments before.

The shrimp ceviche tostadas were nothing short of spectacular. Each bite was a perfect balance of tender, citrus-marinated shrimp and a kick of heat from the perfectly minced jalapeños and serrano chilis. The spice level was spot-on - present but not overwhelming, allowing the natural sweetness of the shrimp to shine through.

The fish ceviche was impeccably prepared and cooked to perfection in fresh lemon juice that brought out the most vibrant flavors. The texture was perfectly tender, fresh, and incredibly clean-tasting. This place truly understands the art of ceviche, and it shows in every single bite.

For $8 each and both options loaded with veggies and flavor, you get a wonderfully nutritious meal on the go. The cook was friendly too and kindly waved as he handed us our food and said bye.“

“Great Delicious Shrimp Cocktail fast and very friendly service .... Enough options/menu to satisfy your seafood cravings... Perfect for a middle day/afternoon Seafood Fest and those Tacos (uff) are to die for.... Some of the Best...... Delicious!!!“

“Everything here is SO authentically Indonesian! I loved it! 🤩👍🏻💯“

“great food. Good service. decent prices“

“Order the Aguachile with extra shrimp. It was only $30 dollars for 2 people. So affordable and delicious and clean. I highly recommend you check this place out. They also have drinks and an awesome patio that is right on Ventura Blvd. I always find meter parking but just Park across the street at the shopping center if you can’t find any.

This is more than a simple taco stand it’s a full service marisqueria. My friend from Sinaloa which I consider a Mariscos expert brought me here and it’s delicious, excellent customer service. The waitresses are smoking hot and super authentic and delicious. I feel like I’m in Rosarito beach eating seafood here. So good. I highly recommend this place. This place is way too empty for the quality of food that they serve. Try the Aguachile. I asked for mild spice and they complied. I can’t handle too spicy. 🌶️“

“Four of us enjoyed a wonderful lunch here. It's a very pleasant and tidy atmosphere and our service was attentive. But it is the food that makes it worth the trip. Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Karahi, and Lamb Vindaloo were among the tastiest we have ever had. The daily lunch deal is a bargain. We came from Sherman Oaks and plan to go again very soon. Highly recommend.“
