"Ceviche and fresh baked pastries aren't always found under the same roof, but such a magical place does exist at the small but mighty Lonzo's, a hybrid bakery and Peruvian restaurant in Culver City. These days, the restaurant section has mostly taken over the room, with a handful of tables sharing appetizers like ponzu topped with spicy rocoto pepper sauce at dinner. Colorful seafood dishes and decked-out cocteles take up most of the menu here, the latter of which are served in tall sundae glasses brimming with tangy cured fish, octopus, shrimp, and crushed corn nuts. Make sure to ask for some of the house bread to soak up the tart leche de tigre left behind." - sylvio martins, brant cox
