Mariscos El Chito

Tried this hidden gem of a seafood tacos/mariscos place in El Sereno (East side of Los Angeles) for the first time on Sunday. This mom and pop place is literally a family cooking and serving food at tables and chairs on their patio/carport. And the food is delicious and inexpensive. I had a fish taco and shrimp taco (plus a free shrimp dorado on the house as a first time customer), and they were all amazing.Took my kids with me again (yes, 4 days later I love this place so much) for Taco Thursday. It was epic. In addition to the Taco Thursday specials fish taco (3 for $6), shrimp taco (2 for $6), and shrimp dorado (3 for $6) we also ordered their pulpo (grilled octopus) tacos (2 for $8) and oyster Rockefeller (half dozen for $18.50). OMG amazing. It was hard to pick a favorite.Chito said they also have Wednesday specials (whole tilapia, fish tacos, fish ceviche) and Sunday special (menudo, which takes over 4 hours to make). Even though all three of us left completely stuffed, we can't wait to come back and try all their other items.Oh and, they are super nice and friendly. It felt like being invited to a laid back dinner at a friend or relative's house. 10 out of 10 all around. Go check them out!!

MY MARISCOS WERE BOMB ?? DEFINITELY WILL BE GOING BACK, THANK YOU IT WAS VERY WELL PREPARED...

Chito 's is my new spot to go when I 'm craving food that is authentic, fresh, delicious, and as I like to say comida de casa . This spot is at their home and they have a beautiful set up 3 tables and lots of chairs for people to sit down and enjoy their food while enjoying the California sun and weather. As soon as we walked in we felt welcomed and they asked us if this was our first time, if it is, you 'll get a delicious free taco (unheard of in LA)! They kindly take credit cards and Apple Pay, making it all that much easier to go and eat a delicious meal. The food was FANTASTIC. We ordered the ceviche, the shrimp, fish, and marlin taco, and the fish basket. Everything was soooo delicous tasty, flavorful. I 'm so happy we found this gem, I will be placing my order ahead next time!
