Coni’Seafood

Been a long-time fan on Coni at their original location so was very excited to see they cut down our drive by opening a location in Hermosa! Food and service were great and everything came out quickly so seems like they've worked through the opening jitters that the 2 star reviewer mentioned. If you order the snook it does take a little longer to come out since they have grill it fresh but it's worth the wait! Will definitely be coming back!!

Coni’s Seafood is sooo good. My husband and I went twice in one week, which says everything. We started with the michelada and the chips and salsa. Be careful with the chips and salsa because they are so good you might get full before the food even comes out. The camarones ahogada roja were bomb. We also ordered the zarandeado (1 lb) and wow, it was amazing. The caramelized onions, perfectly cooked fish, and warm tortillas together were so good. Our waitress Jaimie was the cherry on top. She was cute, sweet, and super attentive, always checking in to make sure we were good. She really made the whole experience even better. We will definitely be back.

I just finished lunch at ConiSeafood in Hermosa, and I absolutely loved it! I can't say enough about the cerviche--it was a hit as an appetizer for everyone at my table. For my lunch, I got the tequila shrimp, and it had a nice kick if you're into spicy food. I've been to Coni's other location before, and I'm amazed that all the locations still have the same amazing flavors. I highly recommend it if you're looking for excellent seafood. Service/Atmosphere: Friendly and fast service.

So great! We love the original Inglewood location and are thrilled there’s now one in Hermosa Beach—with the same wonderful menu, quality, and service… plus a full bar. The only difference? The music: ABBA and the Bee Gees in the South Bay.

Great food - the Tostados were fantastic! Also the butter & garlic shrimp is a must! Our server was super friendly and attentive - we’ll be back!

Exceptional food. Wonderful staff. The kind of atmosphere and energy you want from a restaurant in Hermosa. We will be back!

The Dinner That Never Was. Some advice...Don't open until you are ready. Regretably,I must leave this review about my most unfortunate experience of the newest iteration of Coni' Seafood. I can't comment fully on the food as my dinner never reached my table. The service was abhorantly lacking as there was only 1, maybe two servers working in the packed restaurant. It took 15 minutes for our table to recieve waters and our drinks. I had to hunt down the staff when we were finished to bring the check and a to go box. Our server was nice enough but the restaurant was woefully understaffed. Chips and salsa, if you could call it salsa, were brought to the table. The flavour profile was good enough tasting of spicey chile and lime, but the consisistancy was akin to water and the miniature sized bowl they served it in made it nearly impossible to get any of the substance to stay on the chip which was saltless and no salt was to be found on the tables. The menu is also curious in that they list apppetizers like ceviche and tacos around 24 dollars which is a similar price as there entres like fish and shrimp plates. We ordered a ceviche appetizer that had the same spicy liquid as the stuff they called salsa for the saltless chips. The ceviche was not great as there wasn't much seafood in it. The majority of it consisted of vegetables. I ordered the seabass for dinner. When the entres came to the table, mine wasn't present. 5 minutes later, I asked if he remembered my order to which he looked down nervously after saying yes. A couple of minutes later he came out and appologized that there was an issue with the seabass and asked if I would rather have something else, perhaps some tacos. At this point an hour into this nightmarish affair, I was utterly displeased and in no mood to wait around god knows how long to receive somethimg else. My party was ready to leave and as we sat there twiddeling our thumbs waiting for a check that woudn't come, I finally hunted down the staff to direct them to our table.

Best Ceviche. All the food is so tasty. No wonder they got respect from the Michelin raters.

About two weeks ago, a third location of the well-lauded Coni'Seafood opened in Hermosa Beach, two blocks away from the water. I had just learned of this spot days ago through a two-year-old episode of a podcast and knew I needed to pay a visit. Being hindered by my own small stomach, I ordered a Modelo Negro and shrimp aguachiles but wanted to order more food. My server promptly brought over thick golden tortilla chips in a deep bowl with a small ramekin of puckering lime juice, green chili and perhaps cucumber, and then checked on other patrons. The Modelo arrived in a large chilled glass mug alongside some ice water in a mason jar. I didn't time how long my aguachiles took but the website clearly states that all raw seafood is prepped to order. Can't rush perfection! My order of 8 butterflied head-on shrimp arrived looking freshly prepped and super plump, each dressed with green marinade. The deveining job was also commendable and slivers of red onion each sliced the same width, I understood why this place hangs awards on its walls. Each shrimp was about two bites. Popping open the heads like car trunks revealed a third slurp of oceanic soft brine. By the time I got to shrimp number 8, it looked more opaque and "cooked." The website, but not the paper menu, stated that all raw orders are cold cooked and can be modified upon request. I think on my next visit, I'll let the shrimp sit in the lime blend a few minutes longer before digging in, purely personal preference, and request a spoon so I can drink up all the leftover marinade. I found myself tipping the plate attempting to catch juices on my tortilla chips. For those who want a little more cure on their raw seafood or aren't ready for fully raw shrimp, I'm told ceviche receives a longer cure time versus a super short cured aguachile. I was surprised that a large beer, 8 shrimp and a bowl of chips filled me up so much but I'm excited to come back at try more from the menu.

The same mouth watering taste, ingredients, and menu you'd find at their original place but in my opinion this place blows it out of the water for its location over the others, the service was great/fast even during a typical busy weekend in Hermosa beach, and my favorite part was the addition of new and tasty cocktails. Like i said the location was a great choice in terms of quality of environment, and the restaurant itself is like walking in vintage old town speak easy. It's my favorite out of the three locations!!! Great Job to the owner for not compensating quality over quantity, like once the oysters are gone, they're gone, they won't have it unless they're fresh.

Ate here for the first time and am officially obsessed. Going to be a regular going out staple. Got the snook, jalapeño shrimp and ceviche. Food was sooo tasty. Could not recommend more -- just made a reservation for next week for a friend's birthday!

The portions and quality here were NOT as good in comparison to their other locations ... hoping it's the restaurant just getting their footing since they only recently opened... but I'll wait a while before going back.

The single star is for the friendly if inaccurate service. Overpriced, unintersting food. Smell of grease in the air clung to my clothes. Serving multiple Modelos to the table, mine was 1/3 empty (foam went down I suppose). Nice server brought me a second full beer at no extra charge, thumbs up there. We order ( party of 8 for a birthday because we had always heard how good the food was and some of us had just returned from Mexico). Two of us CLEARLY TWICE said that we were sharing the pescado. They end up bringing us two entrees. I complain briefly, but the guy says, I will bring you a box for the leftovers. (Bear in mind this food is not a bargain). I do not complain again because I JUST complained about the beer, but have afterburn about this. It is not my fault you served me a beer that was 1/3 empty or that you brought two entrees when we clearly asked to share (even asking to be sure to bring an extra plate). Big thumbs down there. There is no dessert offered on the menu. However, after we asked if birthday girl could receive a tequilia shot that was done for her, and it was very generous. Thumbs up there. Overall menu: having a menu that is almost all shrimp and basically tastes the same (I know because we all shared bites of the food) and has no desserts, salads, or sides is kind of unattractive. Restaurant had two other tables with people actually in them. I give this location a month. I certainly cannot go back after spending double what I had planned to spend on an entree I didn't want (yes, both my friend and I who were supposed to be sharing had half of our individual plates left over). And that grease smell in the air, and minimal decor -- no, not when I can get better and cheaper seafood Mexican elsewhere in Hermosa (La Playita) or better and more expensive/upscale elsewhere in Hermosa, too (Palmilla). Who is going to return here to eat similar tasting dishes that are overpriced with no salads, sides (except very bland rice with a bit of corn sprinkled in), or vegtables? Not to mention the chips at the table. Heavy, oily, cold, and seemingly old. WHY? Guys, go to La Playita. Crisp, hot, light, not greasy, far better salsa, and ACCURATE SERVICE. Or go to Palmilla and have an actually crisp cold elegantly served beer for two dollars more with delicious fresh made flour tortillas and three salsa choices. Who is going to return HERE when you are misserved and the response is to say "I will bring you a box." The correct response is my mistake, no charge and I will bring you a box. Yes, I am annoyed with myself for not saying, huh uh, unacceptable. Had it not been a birthday, I definitely would have done so. I work hard for my money and I don't need to spend it on mistakes. The fish itself was bland, oily, uninteresting. Greasy green peppers and onions to top it which somehow even though they missed the part about us sharing that entree, they did get right the part of putting that stuff on the side, rendering it rather edible. 20% gratuity built in, btw. But the tequilia shot and the replacement beer (again, sloppy mistake tho) were friendly responses. Is this really how it is at the Michelin bib awarded Inglewood location??? Were the reviewers sober at the time?

We ate there pretty soon after it opened. The food was good, but some issues with the service and our small dog was welcome. We wanted to try it again, but after being seated and given menus, we were sort of rudely told that no dogs are allowed. Funny, it was the same server who waited on us the first time. An outside sign says that they love pets, but I guess that has changed.

We decided to visit the new Hermosa location but unfortunately we were very disappointed with the service. We arrived well before the dinner rush, there were about 2-3 other parties at the time. I thought great it's not busy, we will have time to walk the pier afterwards but what I thought would of been a visit of no more than an hour and a half turned into an over 3 hour visit. Service was extremely slow and they forgot two of our plates. As my son and I are waiting and realize everyone else is nearly done with their dishes, we asked about the missing plates and the server said they are coming. A few minutes later a young lady visits our table and asks what else we ordered, clearly the dishes were never accounted for which is why we never received them. A few minutes later by this time everyone else is done, they bring out the 2 missing plates. By this time, it had already been 2 hours as I had to add more time to my parking, I'm glad I added 2 additional hours as my brother had to return a 2nd time and we were still at the restaurant. By the time they brought the 2 dishes, I was so upset I just wanted to leave and grab McDonalds or something quick, I had waited over 2 hours!!! I felt rushed as everyone was done and the dinner rush had already started. The food tasted great but unfortunately took way too long. We then waited even more, over 30 minutes to finally get our check. The food was great but I won't be visiting this location again. They really need to get it together and work on their customer service.

Great food if you like shrimp . Feel like they need to add some variety otherwise it's just a bunch of shrimp variations

This is the most original Mexican seafood in Los angeles. Everything on the menu ia to diedor.

It was our second visit to this restaurant. The first time, we were turned away because they didn't have food available during their opening days. Wanting to support a local business, we decided to give it another try and went back on a Saturday for dinner. We waited several minutes for a table, even though there were multiple tables available--just not cleaned. During our hour and a half there, the tables on both sides of us remained dirty, full of used plates and glasses the entire time, which didn't create a good impression. It also took a long time for a server to approach us and even longer for our drinks to arrive. On the positive side, the food was good. We had the shrimp soup and the garlic shrimp, and both dishes were enjoyable. Our server was nice and provided detailed information about the dishes. However, the menu didn't list all the prices, and we were told the house margarita was $14 but were charged $16, which we had to ask to be corrected. Unfortunately, the service was extremely slow, and the overall experience was disappointing. We don't recommend this restaurant to our friends and don't plan to return.

Ambience and service are phenomenal . You must try the zarandeado(snook) best grill fish in California. My go to order definitely are the borracho shrimp and marlin tacos . Servers are always so nice and kind

My girlfriend and I decided to grab a late lunch over here. I've always heard good things about this restaurant so we decided to try their new location in Hermosa. It wasn't busy at all during these hours, only a few other tables were sat down but we were sat near the bar away from all the other parties which was kinda weird and we were sat down by the bartender? We weren't greeted by any host or any of the servers nor offered anything to drink. The servers passed by our table at least 4-5 times and didn't say a word to us while they handed 2 other tables their complimentary chips and salsa and they were sat down right after us too so at that point it just felt like we weren't welcomed there because our table was ignored for about 10-15 minutes. I wanna give them the benefit of the doubt because this is a new location but I can't because it wasn't even busy like that for our table to just be ignored. I don't know what the deal was with the service today because I see other reviews saying they had great service but we didn't receive any of that so we ended up leaving and decided to go to their original location in Inglewood and this location was way more busier than Hermosa and the service was way more better, completely night and day. The food was great at the Inglewood location and I'd go back to that location but I don't think I'll ever eat at this location because of how service went today. Sorry for the 1 star review because I really enjoyed the food at the original location but the front of the house needs some work.
