Mariscos el vago — Restaurant in Maywood

I wouldn’t recommend this place. I tried to call to place an order for pick up and no one answered.

The salsa had a spicy flavor and that’s what I really like in a salsa. Their ceviche was good too, however the shrimp and jaiba weren’t marinated and I was slightly disappointed because it had little flavor. But I guess they have their reason for not marinating it.
