Excellent dining experience with unique menu options. The wine and cocktail list was great great, but the one mocktail we ordered was somewhat one dimensional, just sour. Overall, a nice delicious outing with an enjoyable indoor-outdoor feel. 
Great ambiance with beautiful architecture and interior design that would be perfect for date night. We loved sitting outside but every spot is great here. Amazing seafood presented beautifully as well. There is a great variety of options even if you don't eat raw fish, but I wouldn't advise going if you're not into seafood. This is a great spot to impress out-of-towners with a sweet little LA-shaped churro for dessert.
The best time. As always! Truly my fav restaurant in LA and fav place to celebrate any occasion with friends

Loreto is a charming restaurant that offers exceptional Mexican-inspired cuisine, including delectable tostadas, ceviches, and branzino zarandeado. The lively atmosphere, especially in the beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, creates a delightful ambiance, making it an ideal spot for a night out or a date. The attentive and polite staff provide good service, though occasional delays, such as a 30-minute wait even with a reservation, may occur. The restaurant serves generous portions, and most dishes are spicy, so those sensitive to spice should choose carefully. Highlights on the menu include the flavorful aguachiles, the marvelous margaritas, and unique cocktails like the Old Fashioned made with a delicate smoky mezcal. Loreto offers versatile seating options, making it suitable for various occasions. While there is no dedicated parking lot, valet service or nearby free neighborhood parking is available, ensuring easier access. Overall, Loreto provides great value with reasonably priced, shareable plates and delicious meals, solidifying its reputation as one of the best restaurants in Los Angeles and a favorite in Frogtown.
