Mariscos El Moreno
Mariscos El Moreno is a cash-only Sinaloa-style seafood counter in a Lynwood strip mall, known for ceviches, aguachiles and a molcajete seafood dish called La Morena.
Overview
Mariscos El Moreno is at 11098 Atlantic Avenue in Lynwood, in a small strip mall. The Infatuation, which first reviewed it in 2022 and updated its coverage in October 2024, describes it as a counter-service spot where most customers order at an outdoor window and take their food away. It accepts cash only.
The kitchen cooks in the style of Sinaloa, the Pacific coast state whose mariscos tradition of raw and lime-cured seafood has spread throughout Southern California.
