Where to Get Your Ceviche On in Los Angeles

Tiradito at El Incomparable Peruvian Cuisine in Reseda

Ceviche especial with mango added at Mariscos Mazatleco in Van Nuys. Find them in the parking lot behind the old Toys"R"Us.

The weather is beginning to get a little warmer here in Los Angeles so I've been thinking and eating ceviche.  People have also been asking me where to get to get the best ceviche.

The dish is said to have originated in Peru, but is also prepared in other countries such as Mexico and the Philippines.

I was saddened to hear that my Silver Lake favorite,  Tintorera, was closing. The chef from Mexico City was preparing ceviche on a high level. To me, he was our ceviche specialist. I loved their ceviche and craft cocktails served in an upscale environment. 

Ceviche Project finally opened their brick and mortar in Silver Lake after operating successful pop-up dinners.  I wish them the best of luck and success opening in this finnicky part of town where restaurants come and go.

Here are my favorite places in the city to enjoy ceviche. Buen provecho.
