Delicious food. I had the mahi mahi taco combo with jicama juice. They have self serve peppers on the side that are bursting with flavor OMG! The girl that took our order was pleasant and patient with the questions we had as first customers. This place is a gem. XO, CHEROKEE THE CHIEF read more

It had been awhile since I had some tacos from here. I arrived in Hawthorne about 8pm on a Wednesday, and remembered that this spot used to have fish taco deals. Good news, they still do! $2.99 each on Wednesdays! Score! I got 3 fish tacos, no white sauce. Just as good as I remember! Fat tacos, double corn tortillas, cabbage, hot sauce, add a little squeeze of lemon. I whoofed down my 3 tacos and was on my way! Friendly ladies working the spot. Would be my go to spot if I still lived in Hawthorne. read more

Came in as my friend recommended their Wednesday $2.99 fish tacos. The fish is really big, taco is double layered. I wish I had salsa with it! Pretty good, would come back again. Small parking lot. Lots of locals eating there. Free lemon, onions and peppers. read more

Wednesday is their fish taco special. It must be a loss leader, but if that is all you order, you can easily get a good lunch for less than $10. And that is if you order 3. I ate 2 fish tacos and bought a bottle of water and paid around 8 bucks. I need self control not to get ceviche, but the bargain is worth it. read more

Food: - mango ceviche: hit the spot! dish had great flavor and texture and a good balance of citrus; tostada chips added the perfect crunch to the dish - Fish taco: decent amount of fish in the taco and other toppings, fish had good crispy texture and a good balance of batter Other: - Parking lot is quite tight with few spots - Seating inside and outside read more

Was a bit bummed that we ordered and paid for dessert and we didn't receive it. We did receive a refund. This is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5. The seafood tasted fresh. No fishy smell or taste at all. The mango shrimp Coctel was delicious. The shrimp with fish taco was so good. It was one large taco. The burritos are huge. Tasteful. We will come back. Their sauces are really good too. A lot of flavor. read more

I've heard a lot about this place so I had pretty high expectations but I felt that the food lived up to the hype! The location was packed when we walked in so I had a good feeling already. The parking lot is pretty small but we were able to get a spot. The workers are all very friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. I got the combo with the two fish tacos and the plate was very filling. The tacos were super flavorful and went amazing with all the toppings they had. I also tried the shrimp taco which I'm not normally a big fan of shrimp but it was cooked well and I enjoyed it too. This place is great for a quick filling lunch! read more

The service was amazing here, the owner was very involved and very accommodating. The Combo #3 was good, I really enjoyed the fish taco & was the best thing I ate here so far. The shrimp taco could've used more to it but other than that it was still good to me. Mango shrimp ceviche was bomb! My girl added ketchup to it but that was to her preference but even without it, I was still amazed on how good it was 9/10 read more

I've been to the El Segundo location before and thought the fish and shrimp tacos there were solid. Unfortunately, this Lawndale location didn't quite live up to that experience. The tacos here were overloaded with sauces, and the fish ended up being a bit mushy. I also didn't like the very yellow tortillas. It may have just been an off day since the reviews are great and the parking lot was packed, even during a late lunch hour. We also tried the Baja burrito. It was massive in size but pretty bland unless you added salsa. Since I can't eat spicy food, it ended up being a very large but somewhat flavorless burrito for me. The fried shrimp tacos were better than the grilled ones. I also noticed the person in front of me ordered a shrimp tostada and it looked really good, so that might be something I'll try if I decide to come back next time. read more

I have been going here alot in 2025. This is my additional review for 2026. Took a break from work today to eat some fish tacos. Every Wednesday is $2.99 Fish Tacos. Arrived at this location at 11:30am. I believe this time slot is one of the best times slots of 2, to go to this location. The next time slot I advise is after 6pm. Parking is alot easier since it just opened up. 30 mins makes a difference. If I would of came at Noon, good luck finding parking! This place gets extremely busy on Wednesday due to the fish taco special. Order 3 Fish Tacos today and a Stingray Taco! As always, the fish tacos are immaculate. Today is the first time I tried a Sting Ray Taco, it was rather ocean gamie with a texture of a calamari octopus. Ill just stick to fish tacos next time. Delivery is very fast, I waited 2 minutes and my order was ready. There is an unlimited side bar of salted lemon chili peppers, onions and lemon. Kudos to that Sidebar for being gracious to customers. Not greedy at all. You also have the option to order many selections aside from Fish tacos, such as shrimp burrito, Shrimp cocktail, Ceviche and octopus. Great Selection! Over, hands down to the best Fish Tacos in the South Bay! I would come anytime. Tacos are good size too! Big thumbs up to the staff , they were nice and professional. Come check this place out if you are in the area. You will not be dissapointed. There is a reason this place gets packed! Good food with good prices. read more

Friday around 12:30pm, place is packing! I didn't expect so much sauce and spice on my grilled mahi taco so next time I'd request for sauce on the side. The piece of Mahi was smaller than I'd like but I understand "shrink flation". :/ I believe if you speak Spanish you'd probably get friendly service. TV with news was available while eating indoors. There's also an outdoor sitting area. read more

Ensenada's Surf N Turf Grill was my meal companion's find. So I was glad when she decided to share it with me. They have a small parking lot, and is the sort of place where you place your order at the counter and you wait to be called. They have a condiments station with seasoned onions, hot peppers, and lemon wedges. Their fountain drinks are Coke products and some fun drinks. I sampled the melon, and it was good, but preferred the lactose free horchata. The whole fried fish in front of another patron was very tempting (Mojarra Frita $18.99 fried fish served with salad and rice) and seemed to come with some taco wrappers on the side. But it was lunch time and I ordered a #3 combo - Un taco de camaron y un taco de pescado $12.49 grilled (a shrimp taco and a fish taco, rice, beans, and a soda), with the sauce on the side (as I was warned that it was spicy). The rice and beans were fine as fillers. The tacos though were very well filled and very good. And the shrimp were good sized too! Yeah, we were stuffed, and they were just two tacos! They do have a bathroom, which was quite appreciated. read more

The burrito was absolutely humongous. At first I questioned why the burrito was damn near $20 but when I felt the sheer weight of a generous serving of Steak and Shrimp, I couldn't complain. The fish tacos were 10/10 and the burrito smacked. The vibe of the shop, while very small, is still very cool and the outside seating is nice. Additionally, we got our food very quickly so shoutout to their service fr! read more

Ensenada’s Surf N Turf Grill - Ensenadas Burrito & Fish Taco - Seafood Near Me - Lawndale, California

Relatively small spot, so make sure you line up to order on the far side of the restaurant (unlike me). It is a nice spot, workers were super friendly and helpful. Now onto the food. I came here on a recco from a nice lady who just cut my hair. Ordered 3 tacos, Al pastor, battered shrimp, and battered fish. I wanted to try pastor, Cuz that's what I usually do. I wanted the battered fish Cuz I heard that they're bomb here. For the shrimp, I had to ask which was better, and he replied with "battered" so fast, so obv I ordered that. The asked if I should order anything else, which is how I ended up w ceviche too. Pastor taco was really good, AND it came w a slice of pineapple, and I love when places do that. Then I tried the shrimp taco, and it was fiiire, which made me even more excited for the fish. AND THE FISH WAS FIRE TOO. The batter on them was super crispy! Ended on the ceviche which I really enjoyed. Light and refreshing. Jalapeños had some kick to them. Def going back on Tues for carne taco and/or Weds for fish taco deals. read more

Simply the best Baja fish tacos around. Each time I'm left craving for more. They have taco Wednesdays for $3. Tacos are generously filled with crispy, fresh ingredients. Shrimp tacos are also delicious. Burritos are sizable, basically 2 or 3 tacos wrapped in a bigger tortilla. But the experience of tacos is simply more satisfying. Parking is a bit tough on a busy, awkward corner lot. Service is fast once you order inside. There are many tables inside and the vibe is laid back and casual. read more

Parking here was a little bit of a challenge at the lunch hour, but it seemed to clear up pretty quick. It was packed when I arrived but by the time I finished, I was one of two parties still dining in. Order at the counter, grab your sides, and get a plate of sizable tacos with pretty good helpings of fish and shrimp. Everything tasted great and I probably overdid it going for 4 tacos. The beef was a nice change from the seafood and worked well with shrimp. Service is very friendly and I liked that there was even some outdoor seating. Would like to try some of their ceviche next time! read more

I've been here a few times the tacos are delicious and the food is fresh. Will definitely come back.

This place has been our go-to for fish tacos in the South Bay. Been coming here for years. Come early or it gets very busy during peak times. Parking lot is small, but if needed you can park down the street and walk. They have great deals on Wednesday for their fish tacos! It gets busy! Place itself is small and cozy, with indoor and out door seating. Staff is very friendly. Now for the food, I normally order three things, breaded fish tacos, breaded shrimp tacos and ceviche (whatever protein I'm craving or I just get the mix) Price is very fair, it's not those small fish tacos you get elsewhere. Large piece of fish and not overly battered or greasy on double tortilla. Plenty of veggies and sauce. It's a perfect balance. If you like shrimp, the portions are great as well. Most times, two tacos and an order of ceviche is perfect or if I'm especially hungry, I'll go for a third taco. Ceviche is fresh and on display. Pick whatever protein you prefer or if it's your first time, get the mixed! One of the best things about this place is the complimentary condiments bar. Lemons, onions and peppers are complimentary. I love the peppers, I feel bad that I eat so many while I'm there. If you're in the mood for fresh ceviche and delicious tacos, definitely try this place out! read more

I don't even like seafood at all but my friend was in town and she was craving seafood. I literally loved every single bite of this. The batter was made to perfection, seasoned to perfection. The batter was not too thick, not to thin it was literally perfect. Service was fast and friendly. The cashier helped me decide in the items. The inside is pretty small and intimate so you will be sitting close to other folks inside. The parking is very limited, but I have heard that are multiple locations in the SouthBay. I typically don't leave 5 star reviews but this place blew my expectations!!!! read more

My go to spot for shrimp tacos and ceviche. I've been coming to this little gem for sometime now and it always delivers. If you like spicy like me, try the ceviche San Lucas! But honestly everything looks delicious. Portions are reasonable for the price and the staff is genuinely warm and welcoming. Even when it's busy they try to move with speed and purpose to get your order. There's limited seating inside, they do have a some outdoor seating, which helps because it does get packed during peak times (that's a good sign). Parking is generally pretty good, though it can fill up during busy hours. If you're grabbing take out, do yourself a favor and call ahead, they almost always have the order ready within 15 minutes. read more

Oh yea, they also have their fish taco special on Wednesdays that yall should def hit up! I remember when it use to be like $2.50, no idk what it is but it's worth it!! 10/10 read more

I'm giving this place 3 stars as it's okay but honestly I've had better especially at other Ensenada locations. This place is located on the busy NE corner of Inglewood and Artesia. The building looks like it use to be a KFC or McDonalds but painted with their colors and their decorated their way. They have their own parking lot but it's tight. Because both Inglewood and Artesia have middle dividers, the only way in and out is West bound on Artesia or North bound on Inglewood. The lot is tight too so go slow and be careful, especially at night. The staff was nice. The answered my questions and explained the difference between items on the menu. They have a "condiment" bar that consist of onions, lemon wedges, and chili peppers. There are small plastic bags for you to carry these items. I've had the fish burrito and the grilled fish burrito here before and at other locations. They tasted okay but for some reason the other locations tasted better. Nothing wrong. It was not bad. It was still decent. But it wasn't what I expected considering seeing long lines out the door and my experience at other locations. It's still good but I'll be going to the other locations. read more

I had an amazing fish taco and shrimp taco. I don't like to eat cooked fish because I had that swallow a bone tragedy that haunts me to this very day. Shrimp was succulent and fish had no bones. Overall it's was a good meal. It's a small place so don't roll in 20 people deep. Maybe a small group of 6 max. Service was fine like they're supposed to be friendly and polite. I would definitely go here again if I'm in the area. read more

If you're looking for Baja style tacos-- this is the spot in LA! Tacos are $4.99 each. They come on two corn tortillas and a big piece of fish. The creama and salsa is amazing! And to top off all the flavors, adding some onion and Chile from the salsa bar. This place totally felt like home! Easy to find parking :) read more

Absolutely the best fish tacos ever. Love stopping here for my fix of tacos and those delicious little chilis

Went there purposely for their fish n chips it was our first time there, only because H&Salt was closed today and we wanted fish. (the fish was totally soaked in grease not crunchy like it looked but soggy and soft) didn't taste good at all!! But luckily I also ordered there ceviche which was delicious really good, so both my husband and I ate the ceviche and tostadas) we threw out both our fish n chips which we paid $28.71 for the fish n chips only!! Don't think we'll go back again...... read more

This was my first time here on a recommendation. I had the grilled shrimp taco as well as a fish battered taco. Both were delicious and incredibly generous with the portion. The service was fast the cashier is right up front when you walk in and ready to take your order. Or in my case let me decide because it was my first time. The inside is a little quaint and small but they make it work somehow. There's ATV as well as the close quarters for chatting with your neighbor and discussing all kinds of items that you want to try that other people recommend. read more

Great place! I used to only go on Wednesday's, when the fish tacos were $1.75, but that was a few years ago. It's still very good, and reliable So, I have a new rating system......I will write what I feel honestly about an establishment. The only ratings I will give are 5 stars, which is enjoyable, or 3 stars which is "needs work." read more

This place definitely deserves another visit. The tacos here were bomb and hefty. They left me salivating as I walked in and first laid eyes on them. Their menu is big enough to have options but also limited enough to not feel overwhelming. The staff was friendly and the food came out quick! Their parking is small but it's definitely worth it to stop by and try everything. The seating area is spacious and the food is mouth watering. Make sure to stop at this place. I will definitely be back to try other food read more

As a person who was growing up in a coastal city & loves seafood, I highly recommend this restaurant. They have real good fresh sweet seafood.

Food is 5/5 but the inside is way too compact for how much traffic this place gets but that little inconvenience is nothing compared to their delicious Baja burrito, crispy juicy shrimp, moist fresh fish.
