Mariscos y Sushi Los Tomateros — Restaurant in Lynwood

Heard about this place on the news, they gave it some pretty good reviews and I'm always into trying fusion foods... Sadly I was was very disappointed... First off, the place looks abandoned, very badly maintained, parking lot is small. The interior is nothing special but it was clean... I ordered 2 rolls. A deep fried roll with fried onions strings (can't recall the name) it was so bland, all I could taste was the breading. The 2nd was a simple shrimp tempura roll, big mistake, shrimp smelled so bad... My wife was NOT gonna order sushi here, lol... She ordered the camarones a la diabla.

Included is the menu I saw and...

With that said, the food was pretty solid. I’m not a big ceviche type food person, so if you like fresh fish with citrusy flavors, they...
