Vicente and Connie Cossio based Coni’Seafood within the late Nineteen Eighties within the yard of their Inglewood house, ultimately rising the small marisqueria into what would grow to be Coni’Seafood, a restaurant that most likely has completed greater than another to popularize traditional Nayarit-style coastal cooking in Los Angeles.
Convey buddies and order the pescado zarandeado, crisp-edged, slow-grilled snook marinated with recent citrus, chiles and mayonnaise. When you favor daring flavors, the aguachile — massive, head-on shrimp marinated in a spicy citrus marinade — is great.
For pure consolation, attempt the snacky fried tacos full of smoked marlin, or the tostaditos, mini tostadas paved with a marlin pâté and layers of minced shrimp and octopus. Second location at 4532 S. Centinela Ave., Los Angeles, (310) 881-9644.
