Named after a fishing village in Baja California, the homemade salsas here are good enough to be sold in stores. Try the hot pineapple salsa . It hurts so good. Read more

LA Weekly

Originally planned as a taco stand, the owners of Best Fish Taco in Ensenada (in Los Feliz) opened a sit-down restaurant , with crispy fish and shrimp tacos still at taco-stand prices. Read more

Justin Ordoveza

Made fresh to order. You add the salsa and crema (sour cream ). There is only street parking . The potato taco is good but you come here for the fish tacos .

Will Scholl

You should basically just get one of everything on the menu. Cover the fish and shrimp with slaw , green chili , and crema .

woody thompson

Always get the combo one shrimp two fish and the works. Don’t miss the radish , cabbage , hot salsa and sour cream . Say hi to Joseph the owner.

Patricia Yuen

best fish taco ever! joseph is super nice and everything is really fresh and cheap . doesn't get better than $1.50 fish tacos and $2 shrimp tacos ! i crave this place

Alex Robertson

Yeah it’s like a 6.5/10. Tacos come “naked” u dress em yourself. 2.50 for fish 2.95 for shrimp

Davaish Singh

Dont let the cliche name fool you. Get the fish and get the white sauce . Shrimp is ehh, and the veg is ok. Parking is a challenge

Kyle Chadwick

Great fish and shrimp tacos for cheap . Also potato taco and some drinks and that's the whole menu!

Los Angeles

The fish and shrimp tacos are fried to order and served "naked" in corn tortillas . Now comes the fun part: doctoring them to your liking.

Thirsty James

Yes the fish tacos are freakin great but seriously, chomp down on the Papataco !

Carter Morrison

AMAZING fish tacos at a very reasonable price. Will henceforth always be on my list of places to go when in LA. Try all the salsas , but the radish was my favorite! Read more

Jesse Jr

Don’t know what happened to this place but back in the day this place was a good spot with great tacos . It has gone down hill with flavor now.

Adam J. Richman

Day party! Last Sunday of every month = 'Most Awesome Sunday'! Quality local DJs spin tunes while you eat, 2pm till dark! Bring your appetite, your dancing shoes , and of course - BYOB !

Mz Ahmad

Two fish tacos and one shrimp and don't forget to try all the fresh salsas made on site.

Ask Joe whether their horchata is "the best you've ever had" and he may give you a free sample . Incidentally, it *is* delicious!!

Stacey~Marie

Amazing, affordable and the owner is so nice!!! Love this spot so much! The horchata is bomb too!

Brandon Hoang

Outdoor patio is the best spot to snack on the tasty fish folds

Katy Tafoya

Sadly, could eat any if the fish or shrimp tacos since they're all breaded . But the potato tacos are quite yummy.

Winnie Khoo

Always check for deals: Foursquare, Yelp, Groupon! Fave: fish taco

MIMI

Everything on the menu is under $3

Michael Villar

They really need to take down the signs that advertise the wrong prices of their tacos . I know your going for the Mexican feel, but that's rediculous!

Shelya Jones

Decent tacos . Nice, friendly crew here.

BJ DeHut

Great cash only hang out spot. Grab beers at the end of the block at Cap'n Cork and try both tacos !

Sam Friedman

The horchata , Jamaica, and tamarindo drinks rock. And now they have potato tacos !

Jordan Gons

FYI: It's BYOB for alcohol . Prices raised to $1.75/$2.50 for fish/shrimp respectively, but it is still so worth it. Very good taste.

Amara Poolswasdi

This place gave us an awesome birthday special! Call ahead to get it :D They are super nice here.
