This place is amazing!! Absolutely delicious and unique dishes. Loaded with spice and flavor. Beautiful colors and rich sauces that tantalize the taste buds. Every thing on the menu is a “must try”. One of my favorite restaurants in LA.

A totally unassuming gem in Downey. The Diabla Shrimp Quesadilla is one of the best quesadillas I’ve ever had. The lobster nachos were delicious as well. I’ll definitely be coming back here again.

Do food and customer service go hand to hand?. A typical restaurant greets you even McDonald’s does. No greeting. There’s no direction here. Nobody told me where to sit or how many in my party. It appears that this restaurant is family run. Ppl come in and out whether they’re workers or friends who knows but looked unprofessional. It’s a small place with a predicament like that you expect ppl to be careful. While I was there one guy knocked over cup lids and another guy knocked over a water cup. Now the food. Aesthetically it’s great. Taste wise not so much. The mahi and shrimp tacos have a fusion of flavors that don’t go well with each other. Too much lime, dressing and seasoning. One taco I couldn’t finish because it was just too wet from the juices. I don’t like giving bad reviews in fact this is my first 1 ⭐️ review. The ppl seemed cool and friendly but I have to call them out. The floor was dirty and the clumsiness can’t go overlooked along with the bad service and food, B food grade on window by the way. If you’re reading this I hope you guys step up your service. You guys are successful and noteworthy but even so one should deliver everyday. Yes I’m just one customer with a bad review that should not be disregarded.

The place is scrumptious!!! Lol … I had the sampler tostadas which u had a choice in between 5 different style … Your able to pick three. I had “Mariquita”, “Conejita”and Mango. Don’t let the pink sauce fool you. Flavors are good. First time coming differently will back to try the rest of the Flavors!

The staff was polite. We took our food to go. Waiting time was 30-40 minutes, but everything was delicious. Tacos El Diablo was yummy. The restaurant was busy and small. As I waited, customers came and went to dine or pick ups. I would return.

Got a friendly greeting by Derek and gave us great service. Everything on the menu looked good and it wasn’t overwhelming. Went with the ceviche sampler and fell in love with the Mango one. The other two were really good too. The coctel de camarón was good and above average. The lobster fries was the best! Simply outstanding and best tasting fries I’ve ever had. The lemonade were refreshing and good but a bit too sweet.
Now for the bad and why it lost one star… The place didn’t look like much from the outside and the inside seemed okay. Furniture, interior was outdated, wobbly, menus, worn+dirty, and a couple tables left a little dirty. Not a big deal but this took off one star for me.

Don’t let this hole-in-the-wall for you. It’s definitely worth the 30 minute wait just to even sit down. The tacos are awesome and the tostada mixta is spicy but worth the burn!

I was visiting from out of town and saw this place when looking for both seafood and tacos. El Coraloense checked both boxes. It’s a small place in a tiny strip mall, but the good was fantastic and the service very helpful and friendly. I ordered the pastor still mahi mahi tacos and they were fantastic! I love pastor style tacos and this was a different and very good take on that style. The flavors were very good, and if I’m back in LA anytime soon I would go back.

Definitely go and try their delicious food. Everything I tried was so flavorful. I recommended getting the taco revolcado, the Mahi Mahi is cooked to perfection.
