Literally my favorite spot for mariscos... Delicious Quality seafood & great service. One of the most underrated spots at Grand Central Market... You must try it. Faves: tostada de ceviche, shrimp tacos & guacamole with chips! This last time I went I tried their tacos dorados de camaron not bad at all but the regular shrimp tacos are my fave just wish they kept their yellow corn tortillas they originally had pre-Covid era. Can't wait to go back! read more

I visited La Toastadera and ordered the fish ceviche. Unfortunately, it wasn't for me. The ceviche consisted of large chunks of fish, and I found it to have a strong fishy taste that I didn't enjoy. The texture and flavor just weren't what I was expecting from a ceviche. While others may enjoy it, this particular dish wasn't to my liking. I may come back to try other menu items, but I wouldn't order the fish ceviche again. read more

If you're into bold flavors and serious spice, Tostadería definitely delivers with the mixed tostada. I ordered the tostada mixta with octopus, scallop, and shrimp, and the habanero heat was no joke--in the best way. If you like spicy food like I do, this hits. The scallop and octopus were the standout: tender, fresh, and packed with flavor. The homemade tostada had a great crunch, and the cherry tomatoes added a subtle sweetness that balanced everything nicely. Unfortunately, the shrimp really brought the dish down. It tasted boiled, lacked seasoning, and had that farm-raised flavor that just doesn't compare to the rest of the seafood on the plate. It felt out of place compared to how well everything else was executed. Price-wise, $17 for the tostada felt fair for the quality--at least for most of it. But getting charged $5 for a bottled Jarritos mineral water was a bit wild. Overall, great spice, strong flavors, but inconsistent seafood quality. The shrimp alone is what keeps this from being a higher rating. read more

Seafood cocktail was horrible. The customer service and attention needs a lot of work. I would not recommend this place.

They have a burger made out of shrimp and Oaxaca cheese, 100/10 I absolutely love it! It's a pretty messy burger so get lots of napkins and be ready to eat lol Staff is always friendly! Can get busy in the grand central market, but you can usually find a seat for small groups read more

I was very curious about the black at Aguachiles. So I decided to give them a try. Lily was the person taking my order. We talked a bit about what she recommended. Ultimately, I decided to stick with my initial choice of the black Aguachiles. They did not disappoint. The serving was very generous. Lots of large shrimp, Red onion and cucumber. The sauce was perfection! It was just the right amount of Spicy. Very lemony, and full of flavor. I would definitely get this again. read more

Stopped by on Sunday, 11/02/25. Located inside the Grand Central Market, my boyfriend ordered the following for the both of us to share: - 2 carnitas tacos = $10.86 - 1 Coca Cola = $5.18 SUBTOTAL = $16.04 TAX (9.75%) = $1.56 TOTAL = $17.60 Way too overpriced but hey, it's the Grand Central Market. The tacos were really good; you can split the 2 tacos into 4 since there's 2 corn tortillas under 1 taco. I'm disappointed that there's no guac or pico de gallo - unless we didn't spot any. read more

So many amazing choices here at grand central market but we decided to try La Tostaderia cuz it looked so good! We got the sampler, shrimp ceviche tostada, and the lobster roll (not pictured).. the lobster roll was wrapped in a burrito but so good!! In fact , everything was so fresh and tasty! There was a line to order so naturally the food took a minute but well worth the wait! read more

La Tostaderia - Mixta Tostada!!! - Seafood Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ordered their lobster roll and they gave me a bean and cheese burrito with chunks of lobster in it. The lobster was so extremely chewy that I had mistaken it for octopus at first. I thought I could still salvage it and eat however it was inedible and such a disappointment, I had to throw it away. The biggest insult is that they charge $22 for this plus tip. I don't normally leave reviews but this was so egregious that I had to leave a warning for other customers. Their description does not clarify that is comes as a burrito when the menu item says "Lobster Roll" you would expect lobster in a buttery bread. Hands down the worst item I've eaten at Grand Central market. read more

DO NOT ORDER THE LOBSTER ROLL. It's a burrito that would be delicious but they overcooked the lobster so it's deep fried, chewy, and inedible. It's false advertising. I'm so bummed. I'm sure their other stuff is delicious but this was baaaaaad. read more

4++ This place is located in the Grand Central Market. What sets this place apart from some of the other taco stands in the market is that it specializes in seafood items. The folks here are friendly and there is a good variety of items to select from, but still pretty streamlined. Because it is located in the Grand Central Market, the place feels always pretty busy around you, whether there are other folks sitting around you or the people here filling to go orders. There's a general sense of hustle for sure, but when you are dining there, the vibe can still be chill. Another cool thing is that they have the items on display so you have a good idea of what you're ordering (at least when I went around lunch time) I got a couple of the gringos tacos with just shrimp. They were delicious and had a good amount of ingredients on it giving it a great texture and flavor profile. This place is definitely a great place to scratch that mariscos itch while being reasonably priced. You can order the tacos mixed with octopus (which is supposed to be the really popular item), but I personally stopped eating octopus. read more

La Tostaderia - Shrimp Ceviche Tostada - Seafood Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming to La Tostaderia consistently for the past 3-4 years -- easily 30 to 40 times a year -- and their fish ceviche has historically been one of my absolute favorites. It's always been incredibly fresh, bright, and refreshing -- exactly what you want from a great ceviche. The customer service has also always been a highlight. The team is friendly, and the cashier even recognizes me at this point, which makes it feel like a neighborhood staple for me. That's why it's tough to write this. Over the past couple of weeks, I've come in twice, and both times the ceviche has been extremely salty -- to the point where it was honestly hard to eat. It's a noticeable shift from what I've come to expect over the years. I tried reaching out directly before leaving a review, but unfortunately none of the phone numbers listed online (website, Google, social media) seem to work. I'm leaving this here because I genuinely want this place to get back to what it does best. When it's right, the ceviche is top-tier. I'm hoping this is just a temporary issue and that the recipe or prep can be adjusted back to that fresh, balanced flavor that kept me coming back all these years. I'll definitely give it another shot -- just hoping for the La Tostaderia I know and love. read more

Wow wow wow. I have never in my life had a seafood soup this amazing. It was a cold, rainy day and I was craving something hot, so I decided to try the seafood soup. The menu said it had black cod, shrimp, carrots, zucchini, and (I'm forgetting the name of the broth -- but you can see it in the video I uploaded). OMG. It was loaded with shrimp and fish -- they did not skimp at all. Every single bite was packed with delicious seafood. It was almost too much... which is definitely not a bad thing. If you're in the mood for a seafood soup, this will satisfy you 100%. read more

I ordered the shrimp ceviche tostada, omg sooooo good! It was juicy fresh and delicious. The avocado was prefect didn't taste weird. The shrimp wasn't chewy at all , it was prefect!

Seafood was really fresh! Just know the sample platter comes with bite-sized food and ceviche... for about $25 you're probably better off getting an actual plate. My favorite taco was the shrimp with chipotle. Service was pretty fast- took about 15 mins to get the food. Overall, I give it a 6/10. read more

La Tostaderia - Sample Platter - Seafood Near Me - Los Angeles, California

in grand central market where there are so many great food options to choose from, la tostaderia still stands out! their menu is so full of different seafood options that it was hard to choose from! luckily, they offered a sampler platter that comes with 4 small tacos (fried fish, fried fish, and 2 gobernador tacos) and 2 ceviches (fish and shrimp). I thought that the sampler platter had exactly the variety I wanted and allowed me to try a bunch of different options for a good price! the platter was $25 for 6 small tacos/tostadas that left me very full and satisfied. all of the ingredients were also very fresh and not fishy at all. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for Mexican food while browsing grand central market and aren't sure what to pick! read more

Flavor was on point, super refreshing, and felt like a good portion too. Not a 5-star spot for me just yet, but I'd definitely come back to try more off the menu. read more

Never been here before and will never be back again. Had the worst experience during our vacation. Summary: Received the wrong order and denied of any refund or remake of the order. Add some gaslighting on the side. Ask about the Gringo tacos since it's not even on their menu and they'll blame you for not asking for it. Tuesday 7/23/25 @ 5:30pm: Ordered the gobernador tacos, fried fish tacos, and an agua chile. Spent $50 and tipped 20% because I'm in the industry as well. I had no idea how much I would regret that. When I ordered, the cashier asked me to confirm my order on the screen and I specified that I wanted shrimp for the Gobernador tacos, because their menu literally says choice of "Shrimp or Tuna". Of course they gave me tuna tacos and, to make matters worse, it came with a literal PINCH of tuna. My cousin and I were splitting the tacos. They were so tiny that he ate his in 2 bites before I took my first bite, when I realized there was no shrimp. Disappointingly, I told the cashier about the mix-up and she tried to blame and gaslight me! She told me that their Gobernador tacos always come with tuna and that I had meant to order their Gringo tacos. I take a look at the menu again and said "but the Gobernador tacos literally say Shrimp or Tuna?" Also the Gringo tacos were nowhere to be found on their menu. She went on saying that I didn't specify what I wanted and how she's used to customers pointing out what they want from their plates on display. I told her I had definitely and specifically asked for shrimp when I ordered. She went to talk with the chef and when she came back she said they could only give me my correct order if I returned the tuna tacos. I decided to just go enjoy the last meal with my family before we had to leave to LAX. Once we were done, we took back the taco I never ate and she said nope, no refund. Just an ABSOLUTE JOKE of a place this is. I spent $60 including tip here, and you couldn't even fix my order? Any other place or service would simply apologize and just remake it. Why are you even asking for the food back? And when I do take it back you still deny a refund? I actually saw some reviews how they've re-made other people's food for being too spicy. So you can remake other customers' orders but not Latinos who are here to support and have a nice meal? It really be your own sometimes. Learn some professionalism and customer service. And fix your damn menu and that B score. read more

This will always be my favorite place in DTLA for fresh Mexican seafood cuisine! They consistently serve up mean tostada mixta every time I visit over the last 10 years at least. Service is quick as they can be, and the seafood has always been fresh in all my experience. This is the place I get seafood tostada and I would walk here instead of going anywhere else! read more

Walking around grand central market, seafood sounded good. I came across La Tostaderia. Lots of ceviche options. I decided on the mixed seafood tostada. It's easily 16oz of octopus, whole shrimp, and bay scallops mixed with cut in half cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, thin sliced red onions, radishes and cilantro. There is a ton of lime juice and really spicy. All of this and 2 tostadas shells. Glad I opted for the mix instead of just one fish. The dish had equal parts of each seafood item. When I ordered I was told it would be 8 minutes. The food did come out a few minutes faster than stated. read more

Such fresh seafood. Excellent food. Good portions and great quality and price for what you get

I was inside grand central market and wanted something yummy but relatively healthy. I came across La tostaderia, and their freshly sourced seafood caught my eye. The service was great, I modified my ceviche tostada to have soft corn tortillas vs the crunchy to ensure gluten freeness and they were very accommodating. The food itself was good but not mind-blowing. My ceviche was slightly more acidic than I am used to (maybe more lime juice?) but tasty regardless. If I was not gluten free I would have tried the octopus tacos, those looked standout. read more

I ordered the fish ceviche- yum. No complaints! My husband on the other hand ordered the sampler platter not realizing that 4 of the six items were spicy. He took one bite of the octopus taco and his mouth was on fire. - We are not spicy people. The chef offered to make him the Shrimp burger with no chipotle. It was very good and the cheese eased the burning sensation in the mouth. The chef came over to check if the food was okay and offered to make something else if needed. The service and food are awesome! read more

Wow, thanks to The LA Times, I was able to find this glorious taco called Gringos. It's with grilled shrimp and octopus, wrapped in melted Oaxacan cheese, filled with grilled Fresno peppers and topped with chipotle aioli and radishes. The shrimp and octopus and were perfectly cooked while the cheese didn't overpower the flavors, nor was it greasy. This was one of our first stops for our taco tour of LA Times list, and damn it did not disappoint! read more

Pre-theater dinner at Grand Central Market doesn't get much better than the seafood-centric Baja street food at La Tostaderia. My friend and I gobbled up a luscious Patrona Burger--jumbo shrimp smothered in Oaxacan cheese, tucked into a seeded bun with avocado, potato strings and chipotle aioli--and two huge crispy fish tacos. Lots of flashy stands may vie for your tastebuds here, but this unassuming cevicheria should not be missed. Highly recommended read more

Inside of grand central market lies a gem called La Tostaderia. These were some of the best fish tacos I've ever had (top three!!) There was no line, lucky us. Absolutely phenomeal I wish we got more. It was the avocado puree on the tacos for me. Or no better yet, it was the salsa roja on top. The slaw on these tacos was ridiculous, I licked my fingers after. Fish was amazing. Would definitely get again. read more
