    I had the privilege of meeting the owner and I absolutely loved how much passion and pride she has for business. I informed her it was my first time trying the food and I ordered the #5 combo plate. The chicken enchiladas were amazingly authentic and delicious. I highly recommend giving this place a shot and I definitely will be coming back and trying something else. At times it can be difficult to find parking. Park across the street and save some time if you're in a rush.

    Small family owned place with friendly service. Located across the street from 7-11 in the mini market that's always packed because LA Mexicana, laundry, & boost mobile. Food is made to order fresh so yes the wait is longer then your average joint but I didn't mind. Prices are normal for the area, 1.25 a taco, $6.25 burrito.The food is good, I personally don't think it stood out but I did notice the al pastor was a much different texture and taste then my regular go to spots in east Los or tacos el gavilan, but that's not saying it was bad, just different and was still good

    Quesadillas de camaron

    I recommend the quesadillas de camaron. The order comes with 3. They are pretty decent sized and 3 should fill you up easily. They tasted really good and I will definitely go back for more. Overall the place seems to have a large selection of items and it is kept very clean

    Big group, small place.

    What a great little place. I was here on Taco Tuesday and filled up on the pork and beef ones. Not a fancy place but very clean and the staff was so welcoming. I'll be back next time I'm in the area.

    Post workout meal!

    I don't usually hype spots like this, but Mariscos El Moreno in Lynwood truly never disappoints…read more You know how some places taste amazing when you eat there, but when you get it to-go it's just not the same? El Moreno is the opposite -- it hits every single time, no matter what. Before coming here, I thought aguachiles were the top tier... then I tried their salsa morena and that changed everything. Now I don't even bother with anything else -- morena sauce on EVERYTHING. That sauce is on another level. The ceviche mixta with morena sauce is straight fire. We even ordered two big charolas for my son's first birthday party, and I'm not exaggerating -- almost everyone at the party kept asking where we got the ceviche from. That tells you all you need to know. Only downside is the parking can be a little tight since it's on a small corner, but honestly, once you taste the food, you forget about that real quick. If you go, do yourself a favor: get the salsa morena on everything. You can thank me later.

    First impression: The music is seriously pumped up--think concert, not dinner party. We had to yell…read moreacross the table like we were hailing a taxi. By the end, I wasn't sure if I'd eaten seafood or just done vocal warm-ups. The good news: the food holds its own. The seafood is super fresh, which is a blessing when you need something to focus on besides the bass drop. It's a cozy little spot--parking lot fits about 11 cars, so it's like musical chairs on asphalt. Street parking is an option, just keep an eye out for that street sweeping sign unless you want to donate to the city's "surprise fund." Bottom line: great for a lively, no-fuss meal. Just bring your appetite, your patience, and maybe a subtle hand signal system.

She patiently took all our orders with a cheerful attitude and made sure everything was correct. The food was good, came out in a timely manner, and Cindy checked on us regularly to see if we needed anything else. Toward the end of the meal, she kindly split the check per couple, which we really appreciated. The best part? We were surprised with fried Oreos and ice cream on the house--such an unexpected and delicious treat! Then, to top it off, the manager came by and offered us a second round of fried Oreos and ice cream, also on the house. How cool is that? Nice place, good food, and excellent service. Highly recommend!

The sauce in the bag felt a bit... watered down like it went for a swim before meeting the seafood. For a party of four, we ordered: SHRIMP LOVER COMBO, LOBSTER ROLL, SIDE OF RICE, BASKET OF SEASONED FRIES, AND MAD DOG XXX SAUCE on the side. Portion-wise, we left comfortably full and only slightly questioning our life choices. The Shrimp Lover Combo can't be modified. We chose Stinkin' Special and Spicy, which came with a plastic glove so you can dig in like a civilized gremlin. The Stinkin' Special was a generous blasts of Old Bay and enough garlic to ward off vampires. The Mad Dog sauce wasn't shock-your-soul spicy, but it definitely lingered. I was still feeling its friendly burn hours later and well into the evening. The LOBSTER ROLLL was tasty but fleeting. It's one of those dishes that makes you realize the meal is almost over right when you're hitting peak satisfaction. A little emotional damage there. We wrapped it all up with deep-fried Oreos and ice cream, which was an instant win. Sweet, cooling relief after all that heat. Tip: Sign up to their text newsletter at the restaurant and enjoy a free basket of fries. BTW, their website is down. :(

This guy consistently goes above and beyond, and our most recent visit was no exception. What really sets Alberto apart is how he anticipates everything. He checked on our spice tolerance mid-boil to make sure it wasn't overwhelming, and he kept the wet wipes and extra lemon coming without us lifting a finger. The food was phenomenal as always but Alberto's energy and genuine care elevated the whole experience. He's friendly, efficient, funny without being over-the-top, and clearly passionate about making sure everyone leaves happy and stuffed. If you're at any Stinkin' Crawfish location and see Alberto on the floor, request him--you won't regret it. Thanks again, Alberto--you're the reason we keep coming back! Highly recommend--food is , but service like this is priceless.
