Ensenada's Surf N Turf Grill

Their seafoods are perfect. It's really fresh and great. The parking space is nice. They got a really nice and clean rest room as well. I really love the place.

This is my go-to fish taco place . I love the salsa bar and the food is so hearty and authentic

I came in today for my first time to pick up some shrimp tacos and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the leading cashier who helped me when I arrived was absolutely amazing—very kind, welcoming, and professional. I was order number 30 and placed a takeout order. However, the pickup process was very frustrating. I understand that sometimes dine-in orders may be prioritized, but the gentleman handling the takeout orders (short, dark-skinned man who was prepping/packaging food) skipped over my number multiple times. He called numbers 31 and 32 before mine and 33 , and I even saw another customer who ordered after me receive their food first. When I asked if number 30 had been called, he said no and gave me attitude. Shortly after, another customer who ordered after me also got their food before I did. When I asked again where my order was, he said, “Oh it’s right here,” and my food had been sitting there the entire time. As a first impression, this was disappointing. The lack of organization and customer service from the takeout area really took away from what could have been a great experience. I hope the team can improve communication and order management moving forward.

They make the food quickly. You get a decent amount of meat for the price. It is very yummy.

This place has been our go-to for fish tacos in the South Bay. Been coming here for years. Come early or it gets very busy during peak times. Parking lot is small, but if needed you can park down the street and walk. They have great deals on Wednesday for their fish tacos! It gets busy! Place itself is small and cozy, with indoor and out door seating. Staff is very friendly. Now for the food, I normally order three things, breaded fish tacos, breaded shrimp tacos and ceviche (whatever protein I’m craving or I just get the mix) Price is very fair, it’s not those small fish tacos you get elsewhere. Large piece of fish and not overly battered or greasy on double tortilla. Plenty of veggies and sauce. It’s a perfect balance. If you like shrimp, the portions are great as well. Most times, two tacos and an order of ceviche is perfect or if I’m especially hungry, I’ll go for a third taco. Ceviche is fresh and on display. Pick whatever protein you prefer or if it’s your first time, get the mixed! One of the best things about this place is the complimentary condiments bar. Lemons, onions and peppers are complimentary. I love the peppers, I feel bad that I eat so many while I’m there. If you’re in the mood for fresh ceviche and delicious tacos, definitely try this place out!

Let me tell you all about my experience here, my second time at one of these locations, 1st location was in Lawndale and it was delicious. Fast forward to 6 years later, and idk why it took so long to go back lol. We ordered a Mahi-Mahi burrito and it was huge and so good. We also ordered a battered Baja style fish taco and a battered Baja style shrimp taco and a carne asada taco for my little one and an horchata and Jamaica which were not too sweet. What we LOVE about this place is how fresh the food tastes and how the food is not dripping in oil. Very filling and not to the point where it's so heavy that it makes you feel tired like most food. I felt light and energized after my savory meal. We agreed that we would be back more often! Oh and BTW the young lady at the front had amazing customer service so shout out to her.

Some of the best fish tacos of my life. Their beer battered fish tacos are light and fluffy and filling. Made perfectly with a golden crisp. At 18 weeks pregnant all I want are fish tacos and I’ve been roaming around trying fish taco spots. Fish tacos are all I can think about. This place takes the cake for beer battered fish tacos, hands down. Their employees are super friendly and helpful. I wanted to order tacos to dine in, and tacos to go. They helped make that possible under one bill so that I could take fresh fish tacos home when I was ready. There’s a bar with grilled guero chiles (yellow/blonde chiles) that are epic. Dusted in fine chili powder and salt, they make the perfect addition to any of the dining options on the menu. You can see their ceviche options when you order, all of it is delicious and yes I took a bite while pregnant even tho I shouldn’t and I feel just fine. Order online ahead of time or enjoy the tacos in the nice ambiance provided by the restaurant. Plenty of free parking out front in their parking lot.

I wanted to eat everything. It’s just really good, fresh, tasty and delicious food. Loved the fish tacos and the ceviche - will be back to try the rest! Family were so nice too.

I'm a regular here, and I absolutely love it! The Baja taco is a favorite of mine--super tasty and quite filling. I'm also a big fan of their tostadas and the Campechanas. Honestly, I've yet to try anything on the menu that I don't like--everything is just so good! If I had to be picky, I'd say the aguas frescas could use a little improvement. The place is usually pretty busy, so finding parking or a spot to dine in can sometimes be tricky. That said, the staff is always cool and super helpful, which makes the experience even better!

Ok viewers I keep coming to this place because it is off the chain delicious When we travel from out of town here I make it point to stop here at least twice while in L.A because they serve the best Mexican food ever Our food was flavorful and hearty portions I love the yellow peppers by the Dozen I tell you. You must stop by here and devour your hearts delight

Ambiance: it's a corner spot with private parking lot, it feels very chill inside, limited seats for large group, and it serves more like a place for takeout or quick bites Service: very friendly and patient with questions, provided useful suggestion Food: seafood emphasized menu for taco, burritos, tostadas, ceviche etc., they have the self serving bar for yellow peppers, lemon slices, and onions BAJA TACO Grilled - **** Shrimp & Fish, fresh taste, recommend BAJA TACO Battered - **** Shrimp & Fish, crispy texture, recommend ENSENADA TACO - *** Surf n Turf, shrimp and beef, average taste Ceviche Tostada Baja Style - ***** mixed seafood, including shrimp, octopus, scallop, fish, conch, clam, imitation crab etc., fresh and tasty, highly recommend Price: generous portions and reasonable prices for the premium quality, about $20+ per person for a very full filling meal

Fried shrimp tacos are amazing. Same with the Baja burrito. Both were great portion sizes, especially the burrito. That thing was like 2-3lbs. I'd skip the beans and rice but make sure you grab a pepper from their salsa bar. They season it with something that tastes savory and sweet. They accidentally served us grilled shrimp tacos instead of breaded and those were underwhelming. Im so glad they fixed the order and gave me the breaded option. My friends ordered the ceviche which was super flavorful and a great portion for someone that wants something light. They also ordered the sting ray taco, which was fatty and super fishy. It kind of had the consistency of a scallop. They would not recommend ordering that in the future.

Some of the most fresh Fish tacos I've had in the South Bay. This location is my favorite. The customer service is great here. At times the line can get a bit big but they get to everyone pretty quick. Love that this location has a little outdoor patio section to eat if the indoor area is full. The freshness of the tacos and fish are great, if you get the grilled or battered they are both delicious! Their Tostadas de Ceviche are so so good! Anything and everything you get hits the spot. I like to get them plain and have the toppings on the side that way they don't get soggy. Their bathrooms are always clean & there is always plenty of parking inside or on the street.

The place isn't too big, but the food is awesome I love this place. Everything is fresh and tasty. If you want a fish taco this restaurant does not disappoint. Quick and great service

My sea food spot!! Not many places with a great food and decent prices A less a go there every week

I was feeling some fish tacos, so I decided to try this place based off the good ratings on yelp and I'm glad I did. Its right off a big street and from the outside, it looks like a really average restaurant. Once you go inside, you'll notice how crowded it actually is and how its hard to find seating. I'll caveat that this place isnt that big, but its always nice to see a ton of people going in and out. I tried a couple of fish tacos (grilled and battered) for variety as well as ceviche and an Ensenada burrito. I know this place is popular for their fish tacos (ranging from $4-$5 each), but i actually really enjoyed their burrito. Not only was it big in size, but it was also full of shrimp that was cooked perfectly and beef that was juicy and tender. It also had a creaminess to it, which helped bring all the flavors together. I would definitely come back to get it again. The prices here are not super cheap compared to other mexican joints, but the price is well worth it.

If you guys ever raise your prices or close down I will cry! Broke full time student here and I can get a breaded fish taco and 1 order of regular shrimp ceviche and leave feeling full and satisfied. It is very affordable as well. One of the few places where you can say that nowadays! And I know this is part of a chain but I used to work by the el Segundo location and that one does not even compare and 3 times in a row they over charged or messed up my order. So that is why I love this location. The ambiance is small, and always crowded (because the food is mouthwatering and FRESSSSH!) They even have a side bar where u can get peppers, limes and onions. Sometimes those look a mess and sometimes the limes are not fresh but still edible. Thanks again for having delicious and quality food for a great price!

Solid tacos. My favorite is the fish taco(on Wednesday they are on sale). You won't be disappointed but be sure to go early since there's always a line. Service is fast. Pro tip:make sure to ask for the white sauce

This place was recommended by a coworker for having excellent food, and man oh man was she right. They have such a variety of food to choose from it makes it hard to choose. The great thing is you can try something different everyone you go. It's a small place but they do have indoor and outdoor seating. You get free seasoned chili peppers to take as well as salsa and pickled onions to complement your meal. The burritos a ginormous and can be shared depending on your appetite lol. The food is delicious. I usually get the Surf and Turf Burrito with shrimp, and steak and all the fillings inside. The service is always friendly and fast. It may be a short wait because it's crowded due to the food being so good. They have free parking but the lot is small. Anywho you're going for the food and not to park overnight lol.

Fish tacos - excellent. Maybe fresher on Wed because they're cheaper Al pastor - mediocre. I wouldn't order this again Onions and yellow chile were good to eat with the tacos Small parking lot

Took a friend out for lunch today and she suggested this place. The parking lot is always full, which is a very good sign. Today was no different. Quick service with a friendly staff. A few tables, long tables lining the walls to accommodate more and patio seating. Condiment bar that included slices of lime and huge peppers that would probably create smoke coming out of my head. I had a grilled shrimp taco and a battered fish taco. It came with fresh shredded cabbage, pico de gallo and a cream sauce. They were so delicious. The table also had bottles of various hot sauces for you to choose from. I don't have a photo of the food because the service was so fast, I was so hungry, so I just started chowing down. Don't come for me. Chill, will ya! Just come and try it for yourself. Business was brisk the entire time we were there. No joke. Ok, bye.

My favorite Baja style food near my parents' home. A Southbay local joint been here for years. Fish tacos are must try, not any less than many hyped spots in SD. Ceviche and seafood cocktails are top notch stuff, always good. Love the food and service. Parking can be very hard during peak hours. I do enjoy dining in here, it's a different experience. But most of the time I have to do to-go orders.

Been coming here for a very long time and have always loved their fish tacos. Great prices and service. Only downside is parking and seating. They have other locations but I've only tried this once so far. Definitely a must visit.

Ensenada's Surf N Turf is fantastic. The burritos are huge and filled with shrimp and fish and meat. They are totally worth it. Come on any night and you'll usually find a sizeable line during dinner time. There are two weekday specials that I think are totally worth it. If you come on Tuesday nights, it's Taco Tuesdays where Asada, Carnitas, Barbacoa, Pollo and Al Pastor tacos are $2.99 each (see pic). If you come on Wednesday nights, it's Fish Taco nights where fish tacos are $2.99 each (see pic). The only downside is that the parking lot is tiny so finding parking can be a hit or miss. And it's in the cover of Inglewood and Artesia so the traffic can be hectic. But if you can snag a spot then you're golden.

Excellent food, service was great, friendly staff, and deliciouly fresh and hot food! We will be back!

The fish tacos are soo good! They aren't just all batter and it has so much fish! The service is also great and very fast. They have a self serve little toppings bar inside with these pickled onions and those are must!!

They have so many good items; fish tacos that are flavorful and fresh, delicious shrimp cocktail with a generous portion of shrimp, and fantastic carnitas tacos. I have really enjoyed eating here because everything is delicious!

This spot offers some of the area's finest fish tacos and burritos! The food is consistently fresh, and the service is prompt. Nearly everything I've sampled from the menu has been good! My personal favorite is the Burrito de Pescado; it's both delicious and generously sized, perfect for sharing. Be sure to check out the condiment bar for pickled onions, grilled peppers, and limes/lemons. Parking can be a challenge at this location, especially on discounted Taco Tuesday and Wednesday!

Food was amazing! They are so kind and willing to explain menu! I enjoyed my tacos! So much flavor.

Pros - Good portions. Average prices. Quick service. Cons - Dirty shop and bland, bland food. Carnitas tasted like it had been frozen. Fish tacos had almost no flavor. Take home hot sauce had zero heat or flavor. Beans and rice - present, but boring. Sadly, for flavor, I'd even recommend something like Rubios over this shop, unless you're really looking for something that has that "authentic divey feel" and don't care about flavor.

Delicious! Never disappoints. Everyone always has a smile, which are free. Today I brought my visiting Bestie and she is now a fan.

This my go to place to eat with my kids and as well as my lunch break. Fried fish tacos are my go to. So amazing and the place is clean and employees are polite and friendly. Best tacos in the South Bay.

While on my way to Manhattan Beach decided to use my Yelp app to find a place for lunch. Wasn't sure what I wanted to eat so kept scrolling through reviews. Came across Ensenada's restaurant and was impressed by the abundance of positive reviews. When arriving the parking lot was completely full and not one spot open. I immediately got even more excited! I knew I was in for some good stuff so I patiently waited in the parking lot and after a few minutes got a parking spot. Glad I was patient because food was excellent. Super fresh and great flavor. I tried the fish tacos, shrimp ceviche, and shrimp cocktail. I am a chile Guerritos person so I absolutely fell in love with their self serve condiment bar which had mounds of them. Absolutely delicious place and can't recommend them enough.

Went around 11am, it was quiet and there were some people already inside enjoying their food. I brought my fam here bc we wanted to eat something for breakfast but we wanted to eat something else that was not pancakes, hash-browns or eggs. I was craving some battered fish tacos, so then I remembered I've passed by this place so many times, but never stopped by. We ordered our items, and wow FRESH, that's all I was getting in every bite. From the fish tacos to the mojarra plate I got for my dad. Everything was so delicious. The cashier was friendly and kind, even brought out diced jalapeños for my dad (they don't have it in their condiments bar) but he was inclined to ask just in case they had it. That is going above and beyond for your clients! Now I understand why this place is packed. So so good, I couldn't resist not getting 3 more tacos So delicious! Must swing by if you're in the mood for seafood

I am crazy about tacos. I'm so happy to have found a new spot for fish tacos in City. The tacos are very fresh and are yummy. I have to make myself stop from over indulging.

Yessss!!! Been here twice and I swear I'm craving it on a weekly! I've tried the shrimp ceviche tostadas which are my fave!!! They are flavorful and very fresh! I've had the fish tacos and those are a 5/5! Made to eat right away so don't take it to go! I've had the surf and turf, which is shrimp and steak tacos. They are generous with their portions but it wasn't my fave but not bad either. The prices are great for seafood. The place gets busy but they are good about keeping the line moving. It's a little small but they have outdoor seating too. I love that they provide grilled yellow chilis like hole mole and it's self serve! This is a must try!

So delicious! Best fish tacos in the area. Service was quick and easy. Ambiance is a bit loud during lunch time but it feels exciting! Clean and hospitable.

Love this place and the fish tacos! Please try their surf and turf burrito. Best I've ever had. If you're on a budget this place is not for you. Quality food doesn't come cheap.

I had driven by this place maybe a hundred times and finally tried it. Really good baja style fish and shrimp tacos. And they have the bomb chiles toreados! Recommend!

Driving around Torrance running some errands and I was in the mood for something different for lunch. I've already gotten my fill of sushi and Hawaiian BBQ. One step inside Ensenada's and I knew I found something truly different and special. If you were to judge a restaurant by its clientele there would be a strong vote of confidence here: lots of people bellying up to the "pepper/condiment bar" and lots of transactions in Spanish. The service was very friendly as I placed my lunch order in. The Ensenada burrito was a large "surf & turf" burrito that was filled with shrimp, asada, rice, and pinto/refried beans (my personal choice vs. black beans.) The shrimp was very well seasoned and they did not skimp on the portions inside the tortilla. I also got some ceviche, which was very well balanced- not too sour! Ensenada is a true gem that feels both authentically Baja Mexican and California at the same time. Pro Tip: There's credit card usage fee of $.90- it's well disclosed but something to know before you leave home.

Without a doubt, this is our favorite taco spot in the area. We typically order the fish tacos and some ceviche and we're never disappointed. The food is consistently fresh and delicious, and we love the variety of unlimited condiments. The service is always super friendly and accommodating. Parking can be a bit challenging but it's manageable. We'll definitely be returning for their weekday specials.

Great food! Fast service! Outdoor dining was nice. Great prices! I had the 2 tacos grilled fish combo. It was seasoned well and large portions.

We tried the fried shrimp tacos, potato tacos and the fish burrito. The burrito is dense and will easily make you feel full as it contains rice, beans, fish and salsa. The shrimp tacos were delicious and so were the beans. The potato tacos I would probably skip next time and get the fish and fries basket that I saw others have. This place was constantly busy and the service was friendly and helpful. Great spot!

Apparently it's rated top 12 best fish tacos in Los Angeles accordingly to LA chefs. Verdict: the hype is def real. Staff were keeping the place nice and clean. Service was fast and friendly. I ordered (2) fried fish tacos (pescado), baja tacos (mix of shrimp and fish), and battered shrimp (camaron). Everything was delicious. Batter was light and airy. Not too oily nor salty. Fish was fresh, flakey, and soft. Cabbage slaw added some freshness to the taco. Taco held up perfectly every time I took a bite. I enjoyed the fish more. I think it's worth it to get the baja taco cause you get a little bit of both shrimp and fish. I normally like getting fried than grilled fish. Overall, I was very satisfied with my tacos and super full off of 4 tacos! Very cheap and totally worth! I would recommend!

The food in this place is DELICIOUS, my husband and I started going to this place when it was still called Baja California. Service was usually a hit or miss lol but that didn't stop us from enjoying these delicious tacos. However I understand life is expensive but the prices on this tacos have become way too much! My husband and I got 6 tacos and 1 drink, I think we paid like $40-50 and when we first started going here it was like $20 for is 2 plus our child. I'm not sure if they still have the same flavor as of recently but I've had their Mojarra, Campechana, Ceviche, Fish and Shrimp Tacos, they haven't disappointed. I recommend this please just be ready to hunt for a table and spend a pretty penny lol

Food is great one of my favorite fish tacos! And condiments are great! Always busy so I call to order to go!

Baja tacos are so goood!! Service is a always fast And place is always clean And staff is always friendly and helpful

Used to be the best around but honestly, the significant price increases have dampened that quite a bit. And we think the Grand Ave El Segundo location makes tastier fish tacos than this (and the Hermosa Beach) locations. Not sure why, but we think smaller piece of fish, less crispy, and too much cabbage. Looking fwd to see the new Gardena location!

Good food! Great service. My kids love the ceviche. You know it's good when there's always a line out the door.

The service here is always great, and quick to come out. I got the ceviche mixto for the first time and it was a healthy amount. I was surprised! Saved some to go.

SOme of the best Fish and shrimp tacos here at Ensenadas Surf N Turk Grill. We stopped here for some shrimp and Baja Tacos. They were beyond delicious in my opinion. Decent prices, depending how many tacos you buy. But it is still a good bargain here.

You can't beat the fish tacos here on Wednesday! Ensenada's is a local favorite for their taco deals. It's a casual joint with not much seating and there is often a line Tuesday/Wednesday night for dinner. On Tuesdays they have deals on their meat tacos and on Wednesday they have a fish taco deal which is my favorite. The staff are always friendly and service is relatively quick. The meat tacos are tasty but quite greasy. The fish tacos are fried but not too heavy. The breading is always crispy and they give great portions. They have a bar with some lemons or limes and jalapeños on the side. I've seen a lot of people getting their ceviche which looks great. Definitely a great local spot for taco Tuesday!

Ode to Ensenada - nobody makes a breaded fish and shrimp burrito quite like you do. You want a fat fish burrito loaded with rice for carbs and pico for veggies and huge portions of fish for protein? Look no further than Ensenada. My boyfriend and I were going back and forth trying to find a place that served good breakfast burritos, we couldn't find any but we can always depend on Ensenada to deliver on a satisfying burrito worth every dollar. One burrito is definitely enough to feed two people so you can split it. Inside the store, they have a station where you can slices of lime, pickled onion, and big yellow chili peppers. They will also provide small sauce containers as pictured below in your to go bag. They have a slightly spicy tangy sauce (it's not too spicy tho fyi) and a crema sauce (which is just a watery sour cream). I recommend on every bite of your burrito, you put a little spicy sauce, cream, squeeze of lime, and pickled onion. DELICIOUS. Thank you Ensenada for doing fish burritos justice. :) I would also recommend you get the Baja Tacos with breaded fish - they give you a huge portion of fish that barely fits in the tacos, and it's delicious. Personally, I do not like their ceviche - it's too salty and I don't enjoy their tostadas. I'd much prefer to make my own at home. Never had an issue with service - the employees just take your order and call your name or order number when it's ready, so nothing special to note other than they always make delicious food. Only reason for 4 stars is that the ambiance inside the store isn't very inviting and seating is quite cramped and small. Parking lot is also small. Obviously this can't be easily fixed, but the food definitely overshadows everything else.

It's rated one of the best tacos in LA by L.A Chefs, and they are not kidding. You walk in from the packed parking lot, to a busy clean shop with mostly Hispanic clientele, you know you are in the right place for tacos! They use fresh, sumptuous, and delicious ingredients and served with healthy Baja style and very good value. There are lots of varieties on the menu from tacos and burritos to ceviche, (shrimp or octopus) cocktails, and soups. Love the condiments bar with onions, huge peppers, and limes! I tried the $2.99 Taco Tuesday and Shrimp tacos, they were excellent. We have come back and try the stingray tacos!

Their burritos are huge. Ceviche on the side completes my meal here. It's a very small place and the parking is small too. The service here is great and they have a self serve condiments.

We had salmon tacos, potato taco, fried shrimp tacos. They were amazing. Fresh and very flavorful!! The hot sauce was a little spicy for my son but he ate them. We also had refried beans. Everything was delicious. Service took about 25 minutes but the food was fresh & hot! The ambiance was nice very busy but had good energy. I can't wait to go back!!!

1700+ over 4 star reviews ... I don't know what else has to be said but - don't judge a book by it's cover. We almost didn't go in but I'm certainly glad we did. Fresh ceviche and the grilled fish tacos were spot on. I probably wouldn't use the buffet of peppers and onions but I'm that way after years of business travel. I Avoid high touch items. Anyway I recommend with thumbs up. Get yourself some fresh fish and tacos!!
