I had the worst experience ever! I’m giving it 1 star because a buddy of mine and I went and her food had to be returned twice!!! The shrimp cocktail had a ball of hair, and they agreed to give her fresh food, however when she got the second plate there was a huge hair in it. Very upsetting and I was thrilled to try this place everyone had been talking about.

Try to come here every Friday for lunch. Good spot and good food. Can’t get enough of their mariscos and not pricey at all.

Found this restaurant on Unilocal.I ordered the Shrimp Cocktail and Michelada. The Michelada was delicious! The shrimp cocktail was also good I just had to add some ketchup to give it some flavor.

I agree with some of the previous reviews that this is the epitome of «hole in the wall.» Decors and exteriors are not the most attractive, but I love supporting small businesses! I came here for lunch on a week day, the place only had like 2 customers, so I got almost undivided attention and fast service, woo hoo! The service was excellent. Chips and salsa were brought to me immediately after I ordered and sat down, and refilled as soon as I finished my first basket(hehe, I love chips and salsa!). The burrito plate had huge portion, it lasted me for two meals. The only complaint I have was that the food was way too heavy and tasted more on the greasy end. It’s a good place to be when you’re extremely starving.

This is a great local place with excellent customer service and good quality«mariscos». This place is the definition of a «hole in the wall place» and ya’ll know those are diamonds in the rough. My favorite menu item is the michelada with Negra Modelo, and at $ 4.50 it’s a steal! I’ve been to places that charge $ 10 per michelada! Some of the food menu items I have tried are the: The American Breakfast, which is a classic and hard to mess up, the Mojarra Los Primos is a fried tilapia and the fish meat is easy to remove from the bone. The ceviche tostadas are a favorite item as well as the Plato de Ceviche mixto. My dad eats the menudo on Saturday mornings along with a Coors Light. The Coctel de Camaron is savory and numerous shrimp, not like other places that appear to count them… Or so my mother says. I’ve also ordered the crunchy tacos de Camaron… Supper yummy and you can ask for salsa in the side. I highly recommend this place if you live or visit in the Gardena area. Please note this place closes early. I believe the hours posted are 9pm close on weekends but we tried Saturday at 7:30PM and it was already closed. I believe 6PM is closing time.

Have you ever heard the saying, «Enjoy the little things in life!».Well, It’s the little small restaurants like this one that make that saying true! My girlfirend ordered a steak burrito. I had their Camarones«Los Primos», Oysters with Ceviche and a large shrimp cocktail with oysters(Vuelve a la Vida). I also downed two Michelada’s with my meal and after all the that… I could barely move I was so stuffed, lol! Pros: They’re using quality seafood. Blue point oysters, Mexican shrimp and head on shrimp from South America that have an amazing flavor! Cheap beer! My Michelada’s were under 5 bucks. They also sell beer by the buckets, so if you’re with some friends or watching the game, you can save some cash. Cons: The place is small, it can hold maybe about 50 people.

Their shrimp tacos are pretty good but their Aguachile is the best! Only 3 stars because its kinda of a hole in the wall.
