The Best Mariscos Restaurants in LA

"Drinking micheladas and snacking on crispy fish chicharrón at 106 Seafood Underground was high on our list of perfect summer experiences. Sadly, that semi-secret backyard restaurant Inglewood spot is closed, but the chef and his Nayarit-style mariscos menu (which shares the same lineage as the one at Coni'Seafood) relocated down the street to an equally laid-back space with more parking. The covered patio has lots of tropical foliage and ceiling fans to dry sweaty foreheads, and you can expect the same bright, punchy dishes like tropical fruit ceviches, spicy langoustines, and whole grilled pescado zarandeado." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder, brant cox
