Pescado Mojado Seafood Grill

Horrible shrimp burrito — a few shrimp (not even seasoned) with beans and cheese. It was flavorless. The ceviche on a half avocado was dry. Also paid way too much for such a bland lunch. I won’t return.

Burro was legit, with 10 – 12 flavorful shrimp and guacamole for $ 7. Size was also exceptional for price: almost what I would consider a monster burro. In dire need of salsa verde since it was flavorless except for shrimp. Also, they don’t use hardly any cheese, so it desperately needs «extra».

I ordered on Unilocal,when I got there most of my order was ready but didn’t take long. Love that I didn’t have to wait in line since I had paid online as well… customer service was great and their green salsa was bomb…
I ordered burrito de camaron and papas, everything was good. I would definitely go again.

This place is not located where it says it is. It’s on the opposite corner. The ladies there were really helpful and we got our food pretty fast, with in 5mins. The only downside to this place is that the food didn’t taste fresh. I got the ceviche tostadas and they didn’t taste like shrimp nor crab. You would think they would taste limey too but nope. That was a bummer

The food was fresh and delicious. I ordered the shrimp bruschetta and the rice and beans that came with it was really good. Tastes home made! I will be going back! Was there early (11:30am) before the lunch rush hour.

Sooooo good! I really didn’t expect much coming here because of its appeal from the outside but the place was great! We got the ceviche (both shrimp and fish) and it was all really fresh! The avocado that came with it was good too. I would definitely come back. Reasonably priced as well!

Consistent as hell!
I order the same tilapia fish dinner everytime. And lawd today… this fish is banging. So good. Everytime.
I love that it comes with this buttery rice that pairs really well with the beans and toss some pica de gallo inside of the mix. Delish. (Did I use «delish»?)
The salad is obviously kind of thrown together with a pretty mix and avacado. But hey at least they add avacado.
This is not somewhere you go trying to fancy smancy. Bring someone you can get down with! If that’s a date … you probably should marry that person.
The portions are perfect and it pairs really nicely with a beer. Which you can also buy. It’s about 5 different types.
I heard the camerons soup is on point too. Trust me on this one. This is a good LA secret.

Fish ceviche is good but not amazing. (for legit fish ceviche,
)
Got a quesadilla and it was not good at all (shrimp). Super dry.
Rice and beans are legit gross IMO.

I hate seafood with a passion, just as much as I love Pescado Mojado.
How can this be, you ask? How can someone who hates seafood love a place with a name that translates into ‘Wet Fish’?
I used to drive past this place every day for a year, and struggle to contain my forthcoming vomit while imagining what kind of horrifying things were hiding inside. Images of a dark and dank room, filled with rows and rows of dead, wet fish lying on ice flooded my mind. I imagined bowls of soup, overflowing with the stuffs of my worst ocean nightmares, being served out to huddled-​over wrinkled seniors whose taste buds were on the last leg of their journey.
Then one day while passing by, I noticed a normal-​looking young family of four leaving the restaurant. Incredibly, they all looked happy and content, and were even laughing and high-​fiving each other. Based on their gestures and expressions, it was evident that they were each taking turns proclaiming their undying love for this restaurant.
Flabbergasted, I went home and looked it up on Unilocal.There were appetizing photos of chicken soft tacos and other normal foods. Only then did it hit me that Pescado Mojado serves normal burritos and tacos, just like any other Mexican restaurant!
Pescado Mojado could have many more happy customers if it didn’t seem so seafood-​y. To the not-​insignificant chunk of the population that dislikes seafood, the name and appearance of the restaurant broadcasts ‘Don’t eat me pls!’ to this group in flashing lights.
Now, I love getting the $ 6 beef/​chicken burritos. It has guacamole, cheese, fluffy yellow rice and beans inside, and is quite filling. It comes with free chips, and unlimited house salsa. Order time is relatively quick, and the place is rated an ‘A’ by the Department of Public Health. In summary, this is a solid alternative to sketchy food trucks and the ever-​popular El Taurino.

Love the shrimp and fish ceviche stuffed avocado. Only $ 4 with big portion! Must try!
It is not too hard to find parking in the plaza but maybe because i went before dinner time.

The shrimp ceviche on half avocado was indeed worth the hype. Think fresh shrimp ceviche piled on a fresh avocado. I tried the grilled fish tacos which were also tasty. But I’m coming back for you, shrimp ceviche and avocado! The salsa is delicious, and the service is nice and fast too. Come to Pescado Mojado for a great meal!

Yum! My office will order catering from Pescado Mojado every once and a while. You have never seen so many ladies snatch food up so quick.
The shrimp ceviche is my personal favorite. It’s refreshing for a lunch on a hot afternoon and tastes healthy too.
They also have tasty yellow rice, skewers with large shrimp/​bell peppers/​onions on them, sides of grilled chicken, quesadillas, portions of grilled fish, and salad. This comes with huge bowls of chips that you have to eat with their fresh guacamole and my favorite green salsa.
The man who delivers our food is always so nice and helps us set up the food and brings a cheese cake along for dessert.
I would definitely recommend this place for a light tasting lunch or dinner.

I tried the shrimp and fish ceviche tostadas. The shrimp was very fresh and very good. The fish ceviche was way too sour and had too much lemon.
It was over all an ok experience, they were very quick, there was lots of seating and soccer was on.

Too bad there are only a few of these left in the city. The original owner was the creator of the El Pollo Loco franchise, who when after he sold El Pollo Loco opened El Pescado Mojado, but it didn’t take off.
Always fresh and consistently good. El Pescado Mojado has some of the best seafood soups. My favorite are the Levantate Lazaro, which is a medley of seafood and the simple shrimp caldo. Their rice is delicious as well. If you buy half an avocado, you will bet a small rice for free.

I have lived walking distance from this place for over a year and just tried it for the first time tonight! It was so good! I had one chicken and one steak brochette with a salad and a small side of beans. Defiantly coming back to the place.

Frescura pura para el paladar de mexicanos q gustan del marisco fresco y con limón y chile de verdad … Aaaay neta que rico

Me & my coworkers frequent this place often. I guess the specialty is seafood but I’m allergic to shellfish so I play it safe by ordering a chicken burrito or chicken tacos whenever I go. It has a tv in which stays on sports, mostly soccer. If you order the chicken tacos, they give you a nice amount of chicken on one taco, so if you order one taco, you’ll have enough meat for a second taco, ask for an extra tortilla. Fountain or bottled drinks, salsa bar & they sell slices of cheesecake.

I’ve acquired a bias based on the shrimp burritos I’ve had since it’s my favorite food; this place did not disappoint! The burrito was a little under five bucks and it even had guacamole — that gave it some plus points. Their shrimp quesadilla is also really good! Ooh and can’t forget it came with tortilla chips!
Their salsa bar is stocked with the best green sauce ever! They have quick and friendly service, and they have a parking lot. Who doesn’t appreciate a parking lot in LA?
I’ll be back at this joint soon enough to try their ceviche!

We were driving around last night while perusing Unilocal reviews in search of some cheap eats… we had been acting like some free-​spending fat asses all weekend, and wanted to balance it out. My boyfriend turned into this driveway when we passed this place, and it was probably the best thing he could have done!
Pescado Mojado has plenty of parking, and seems half fast-​food, half restaurant. It looks like a small cafeteria. You order at a counter (you can also order bottled Corona or domestic beers if you like to pretend you’re on vacation with your seafood), then your order is brought to your table and your used plates are bussed for you afterward too. Waitresses will bring you chips and salsa while you wait, too. A step up from your normal fast food spot!
I immediately was drawn to the Shrimp Ceviche in a Half Avocado, which is always a special at $ 4. Chad ordered a shrimp quesadilla (around $ 5) which came with rice and beans. We also got a chicken taco. At first, I silently judged him for ordering a chicken taco at a seafood place, but it was a dang good taco, loaded with huge, juicy, slightly-​blackened chunks of chicken. A salsa bar with pico de gallo, hot salsa, limes, and cilantro/​onions lets you dress everything to your pleasure.
The ceviche avocado was amazing. Piled high with fresh ceviche and mostly big chunks of shrimp, it was the best thing I could have ordered. Would totally get it again for a light lunch or dinner. The quesadilla was bomb too, loaded with thick, gooey cheese and whole shrimp. Our whole meal was around $ 13!
I love new discoveries in my neighborhood and love that I now know about this one… especially if it’s a time of brokenness and you want something healthy and fresh.

Get the half avocado filled with shrimp ceviche!!! It’s $ 4 and comes with fresh chips and salsa, and is amazing. I’m not normally crazy about ceviche but I absolutely loved this, probably had something to do with the half avocado.
Nice staff, very inexpensive, and *drum roll please* accepts credit cards!!!
