Ceviche

[homebound]

Has anyone had really good ceviche lately? I recently made the mistake of ordering ceviche at Malibu Seafood.

Ciudad in Downtown LA! This is one of the places I take tourists as they come through Los Angeles. I don't know if they still have it, but they used to have a Ceviche Sampler, of anywhere from 3 to 6 types of ceviche.

There is a little shack ( cant recall the name ) on Lincoln 1 a few blocks North of Rose on the West Side of the street. Pretty good rendition there. Look for the line of people outside. Drawback is the outside eating there. I actually like the Tosta Mixta ( seafood ) as well.

La Playita.

I don't like their ceviche at all, way too sweet and the texture is off. If we're opening it up to taco truck/shack ceviche then the ceviche at La Isla Bonita (taco truck on Rose near 4th) blows it out of the water.

I love the ceviche at Senor Fish...

My favorite is the fish ceviche at Tacos Baja Ensenada. So good!

I like theirs too. When I'm in a ceviche-only mood... I get one fish and one shrimp... never been disappointed!

I had an excellent ceviche as part of the salad bar at Sampa Grill, the new churrascaria in Encino. I don't know if they have it daily, but it was part of the dinner salad bar last Friday.

Also, the ceviche at Ciudad is quite good and one of the only decent items on their menu.

Best ceviche I've had in greater L.A. is at Kotosh at Kamiyama, a hole-in-the-wall in Lomita.

Had a dish called "cebiche misto" at Kotosh -- BIG portion, enough for a dinner entree, although I think it appears on the menu as an appetizer. It consists of a wide variety of fish with a very tart citrus dressing.

Delicious!!

I highly recommend the ceviche at Border Grill. I'm not a fan of the shrimp, but the seabass and the ono (served tiradito-style) are really yummy.

Los Balcones del Peru has truly awesome ceviche if you can bare the bitty service.
Here's the link to a JGold review that includes address etc:

I also am fond of the ceviches at El Polla Inka and if you visit the Torrance branch you can get a Pisco Sour, a foamy gorgeous cocktail not readily available in LA.

I second Los Balcones del Peru. Really good stuff.

Las Quenas [Peruvian Restaurant], on Sherman Way and Bellaire Avenue in North Hollywood. Make sure -- even though it sounds gross -- that you get some octopus in yours because it is just plain delicious.

I had good ceviche at Pacifico's in Culver City. I also make my own using fresh Chilean Sea Bass, fresh lime juice, celantro and a little salsa. Chill for 30 min.
