" Stumbled upon this fantastic seafood restaurant, and I couldn't be happier! The experience felt authentic from the moment I stepped in, with friendly staff and delightful dishes. The fish tacos were incredibly fresh—one of the best I've had. I also appreciated the clean surroundings. It’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy good food after work! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to Ostioneria Colima for years, and it has always amazed me with its authentic flair. The fish tacos are simply the best, made with fresh fish, and the salsa has a perfect kick. However, the service can be hit or miss—sometimes speedy, sometimes not. The atmosphere is laid back, which I appreciate after a long day. I'll keep coming back because of the food, but I do wish they would work on the service consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ostioneria Colima is my favorite seafood spot in LA! Every visit feels like a family gathering. Their campechana with lobster is a must-try—so rich and flavorful! I love how every dish reflects the authentic coastal flavors of Mexico. I've been coming here for years, and each time, it feels like home. They’ve retained their charm, and the staff feels like part of my extended family. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic mariscos! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many great things about Ostioneria Colima, I had to check it out for myself! The ambience was vibrant and fun, really capturing the essence of a traditional seafood shack. I tried the oysters, which were fresh and delicious, but they were served in a chaotic manner that made the experience a bit overwhelming. Still, I appreciated the flavors and the love that went into the cooking. I’ll definitely return for another go at their famed shrimp ceviche! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! I stumbled upon Ostioneria Colima after a hike and I’m so glad I did. Their fish ceviche had the perfect kick and was complemented beautifully with lime. Although the decor is quite casual, it adds to the authentic beachside vibe. I mostly loved how each dish was prepared with care and you could taste the freshness in every bite. It was just delightful. Plus, the prices are reasonable for the quality you get! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance is casual and inviting but was too crowded during my visit. I loved the energy! The shrimp ceviche was quite refreshing, but I felt it could have had more seasoning. The waitstaff were friendly, albeit a bit slow. Overall, I enjoyed my time here but think they could fine-tune some flavors for a completely flawless experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a seafood lover, I've had my share of coastal places, and I must say, Ostioneria Colima is absolutely delightful! Their ceviches and various tacos are some of the freshest I’ve encountered. The casual vibe is welcoming, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal alone or with friends. I’m a fan for life! " (*Curated Review*)
