    I can never give enough thanks to my favorite Mariscos spot. I called last minute for a ceviche mixto bowl the day of my daughter's party. It was ready within 30 minutes. Amazing service, lots of tostadas limon full bottle of tapatio. Always fresh always flavorful and always on point. Love this place!

    Mango ceviche

    Huachinango a la Veracruzana: Red Snapper Vera Cruz style
    Gary I.

    Mariscos Corona is in a tiny stripmall with an equally tiny parking lot. Frequented by Latino families and Gringos doing mostly take out. Minimally decorated, but pictures of Revolucionarios, Francisco Pancho Villa (aka José Doroteo Arango Arámbula) and Emiliano Zapata as well as Cuautémoc Tlatoani, last Aztec Emperor. His courage in resisting the Spanish invasion, both during the conquest and after his capture, has made him a powerful symbol of Mexican national pride. 1) Mariscos Corona has a rare item not found in most Mexican menus: Huachinango a la Veracruzana which I had the pleasure to enjoy at the Restaurante in the Hotel Prendes in the port city of Vera Cruz on the Gulf of México. Whole red snapper, head, tail and all is lightly covered in a wheat based batter, then fried to a crisp so that even most of the bones are eaten like potato chips except head & spine. The white meat is moist, dense, but flakey with a touch of sweet, sea minerality. The frying technique was very competent with use of fresh oil so as not to leave stale flavours from other fried foods from before. The classic, associated Salsa was a light, fresh tomato sauce kissed with garlic, onions, sliced brined Spanish olives and sometimes capers. The Mariscos Corona version is battered & fried and then slathered with what seems to be heavy, thick, gooey tomato paste sautéed with slices of onions, red & green bellpeppers. Garnished with a lime to add a gastrique at one's discretion. However, Mariscos Corona did not follow the classic Salsa a la Veracruzana recipe. 1a) Very refreshing, chopped, green leaf lettuce topped with chopped tomatoes dressed with 1,000 Island dressing possibly due to concession to American influence. 1b) Dry, friable, short grain rice with bit of frozen veggie medley added for color. 1c) Frijoles de Pinto are creamy, thick with a bit of texture from other beans that are closer to smashed. Scattering of soft Queso Fresco for more richness. 1d) Three standard Tortillas de Maís 2) Excellent Salsa Fresca: Chopped fresh tomato, onion, cilantro, orégano Mexicano, pleasant acidity, earthy, garlicky with a satisfying scent of fermentation. Totopos/fried corn Tortilla chips are denser, plodding in texture. 3) Tried out the Culichi bottled Seafood Salsas from Sinaloa. a) Culichi Hot Seafood Salsa Habanero: like Worcester sauce with sweetness from a bit of brown sugar b) Culichi Negra: minty Worcestershire c) Culichi Hot Seafood salsa Chitilpin: Fermented fruit flavour with again a minty scent. In conclusion, I really couldn't taste a huge difference although a tangy, burnt sugar caramel flavour seemed prevalent. 4) Rather weak tasting Horchata made from rice, vanilla, sugar slaked my thirst on a very hot end of August late afternoon. Servers are efficient, and the younger lady was charmingly accommodating. Not exactly Huachinango a la Veracruzana, but not bad for a restaurant more leaning toward Jalisco. 4- stars

    Mojarra Frita
    Mina M.

    This has got to be my favorite Mariscos restaurant so far!!!!!! Everything was just a perfection with no complaints at all. I ordered the mojarra frita with fries and rice and salad (normally it's beans instead of the rice but they can always swap it for you). OMG the fish was so juicy and crispy at the same time and was so full of meat like I never had it before. It was just cooked to perfection. The service did not disappoint at all and they are literally willing to get you anything with a smile on their faces. The place itself is a little small. Can't imagine it on a busy weekend night where lots of people would dine in!!!!!!!! People would be on top of each other. But it just feels like one of the places you go in a small town in Mexico itself. I loved the place and even tho it's a bit drive from where I live. I'd definitely be visiting here over and over and over.

    Like I said before, this is definitely my go-to spot. The food is consistently amazing, the service is always top-notch, and the welcoming atmosphere keeps me coming back. Highly recommend!

    Cute restaurant, bright inviting decor, staff was nice service was good. Good happy hour specials , great portion although the food, all three of my dishes could have used more flavor down to the fries . Looks can be deceiving .

    Shrimp Large Coctel
    Keith S.

    Food was great! I got the shrimp and oyster cocktail. Oysters didn't seem the freshest but the shrimp was really good. My girlfriend got the shrimp and mango ceviche and it was also very good! Service was friendly and very nice. The dining room is small but still has enough room for small parties. I want to come back and try more things off their menu. I was looking at everything coming out of the kitchen and it all looked delicious!

    Tostada mixta con pulpo y pescado
    Josh M.

    Lovely small business in Van Nuys featuring ceviche, aguachiles, and a whole lot more. I got the tostada mixta with octopus and fish. The seafood smelled and tasted fresh, was a perfect temperature, and had a nice balance of acidity and salinity on its own. The habanero salsa rounded out the flavor for me. Their friendly staff warmly greet patrons including families and workers on their lunch break. Plenty of space in their own parking lot or on the street. Very affordable price for decent quality raw seafood.

    Sea bass and shrimp
    Grace O.

    Cute little strip mall seafood spot. I read about the aguachiles and wanted to try it. A beautiful presentation and ample portion. It was tasty but not as spicy as I'm accustomed to. I'm not sure that's a bad thing. The light spice made it possible for me to enjoy the other flavors more and without drinking constant water to cool my mouth. I liked it. I also had the sea bass and garlic shrimp with a salad. The sea bass (not sure it was sea bass the way it was presented but whatever) was a little overcooked and too oily. The garlic flavoring was overcooked. I liked the shrimp but prefer no shells. The salad was ok. Overall, the meal was good. I'll return for a second try. The place was clean, staff was super friendly and it was a calm atmosphere.

    Shrimp Taco

    Stopped in for shrimp tacos. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The tacos were 10 out of 10, Amazing! Made just how I like! The restaurant was extremely clean and the food was quick. Will always support this taco spot when in the area! Plenty of options for pescatarians.

    Any live music during the weekend?

    yes there was a old guy singing with a guitar around 12pm - 1 pm on Sunday. It was pretty distracting and turned me off from eating inside, and I just ordered take out. I recommend try to avoid the musicians if you can.

I don't know what is going on with both Oliva and this Crab House restaurants? It was dark inside as I snooped to see what the place looked like, was not able to see anything, except one side of the restaurant the chairs were placed on top of the tables. Again, either they are going out of business, or sold the restaurant to someone else. We dialed their number, no answer, left a message (twice), and no one called us back! Even until today. What a shame!! Was so looking forward to it. We were there on the 7th of this month at 12 noon. My friend drove all the way from Tarzana so we could have had lunch, but both restaurants let us down..

The space is really quite large. I was happy to see there was a seafood counter with a display case of smoked fish, a couple of dips, aged beef. The guys were super friendly behind the counter. I spotted the cafe area where they serve coffees and teas - I made a note that I had to come back to try that. Back to the deli counter - they recommended I try the smoked sea bass since they don't get it in often so I took some of that and a smoked salmon collar. The hand roll bar was empty since it was late in the afternoon but too early for dinner. I promised the sushi chef there that I would return. So I went back today with a couple of friends. We sat at that hand roll bar and had the best hand rolls I've ever had. We ordered a la carte and I absolutely loved those creations - full of flavor, texture - unique and tantalizing! I'm curious to go back and try some of the other things on there like the burger? the shabu shabu? I can't wait to see how they serve those items. Their little market area is fascinating as well - with small bottles of soy sauce aged in bourbon barrels and other delicious sounding ingredients. I did end up taking home a shaker bottle of their house made furikake. Can't wait to try that! I'm so happy this is in the neighborhood. It's a great spot to introduce friends to and serves as inspiration for anyone who loves to cook.

Although it didn't really necessarily show up as "the best food in LA area" but all the reviews were so good so I became curious to try. Mainly the reviews also raved about the vibes, services, and live music. Well, they were not wrong! It was fairly easy to make a reservation through Opentable, and I made a reservation for two people for my birthday dinner on Sunday night. I put on the notes that it's my bday so it'll be nice to get a nice table near the stage. I didn't have a high expectation, cos I'd never been to the place and I didn't make a call or anything. But wow, they definitely gave us a great table at the very front! As many reviewers had mentioned, the acoustic of the restaurant is really great. You can barely hear other people's conversations. There's a live jazz band playing, so you can really enjoy that. Although it made it slightly hard to hear what other nearby people say to you either, haha. Our server Dawson was a really great one! Very nice, very informative and just has a great vibe that made you feel comfortable to converse with him. We also asked if he could take a picture of us and he went above and beyond with taking our pictures haha. He took the table lamp as our additional "lighting". Such a great service! Dawson also made a few suggestions on food. We ordered the milk bun (so great!), the tiger prawns tostada (omg, my favorite of the night!), braised lamb pasta, pork belly risotto, and roasted broccolini. Everything was really good and really filled us up! We also got the "smokin old fashioned" and "Wake up and repeat" cocktails. It was plenty of food for us so we asked for a check. Dawson asked if we wanted a dessert but we were already full. He asked if it's ok to give us a lil treat for my bday. It was a really nice dessert :). Oh I forgot to mention that they also put a small bday card on the table for me. The prices of food and drinks are on the higher sides, but I feel like it's worth it due to the live music and the vibe. It easily covers the entertainment part. We definitely will go back and recommend this place for anyone who's looking into a nice date night or to celebrate something special. I was informed that Friday has more of a "party vibe" here, although it's still a jazz performance. Sunday feels more laid back :) Overall I'm really pleased by this place. I used to think that I don't care that much about excellent service as long as the food is great, but I was wrong. The excellent hospitality just made the night even better than expected. Thank you for making my bday dinner memorable.

We got the tiger prawns and it was presented as a toasta, which had a great flavor and texture. The apple salad was also refreshing and a good portion to share between 2 people. The broccolini was cooked perfectly and my favorite after the tiger prawns was the Dungeness crab pasta. It had uni on top! The uni elevated the dish, and honestly there were a good amount of crab meat in the dish. Overall well balanced and creamy. The 2 of us left full and satisfied. Highly recommend this place for a date night. There's also plenty of street parking when we went but there is also valet for $15.

Yah boy had been grinding all week at work and I felt like I needed to treat myself, so I ordered the boys Taco Bell from postmates, got them situated at the house and then I stepped out to grab me a steak. I had no clue where I was going, so I pulled over on the side of the street to see which steak place was open until 10pm because it was already like 8:40pm. Blvd closes at 10p on the weekends, so I shot to Sherman Oaks! I found parking across the street but they do offer valet but there was no need since metered street parking was free at that time. As I walked up, security opened the door for me, the hostess asked how many and took me to my table. The place was very nice with a huge bar in the middle. There was great music playing, which was 90's hip hop and some r&b. Apparently, the owner has a few famous hip hop artists investors and is a hip hop head himself. He also owns Taisho sushi restaurant across the street along with Anderson Paak (that's the word around town). Anyway, the place was very nice and classy! Definitely a grown folks vibe with hip millennials dressed nice at the bar and reciting the lyrics to the music and a few grooving to it as well. My waiter was great! He helped me decide on my order and I decided to go with a 6oz petite filet, the sautéed shrimp and the smashed broccoli. Everything was top notch! That steak was everything I could ask for and the bread and sauce together with the shrimp was that chef's kiss! I'm not going to lie, this place was so good that I told my wife about it and we went back two days later. With her we tried the meatballs, which were fire! We also got the wedge salad, which was good but the pancake croutons or whatever were a little weird and I got the same steak but with blue cheese crust and broccoli. We also got a few drinks (Peach Julep & Watermelon Margareta) and the butter cake with fresh strawberries and ice cream. All of which were amazing! We went all out! Our bill was crazy but it was well worth it just to get out and have a date night. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking to have a date night. We were going to hit a movie or go dancing after but we were way to tired after all of that lol. Def hit this spot up for good food and great service! We'll be back for sure! OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros
