7 Mares Caldo. I was amazed to see the most enormous tureen of soup imaginable, with a King crab leg, a large clam, calimari, half a fish that tasted like catfish ( but was billed as halibut), various veggies, cilantro and chopped onion, flour tortilla, various kinds of hot sauce, nachos, salsa and 2 bottles of Bud Light. I took enough home with me for 3 more meals, good hot or cold. The soup bowl was big as a helmet. I'm coming back to sample three half-a-lobsters (4 different kinds). Who cares if the service was slow? The little place was packed!
The score does not do this spot justice. The rating should be much higher, and it seems some of you are fools for not loving on 7 mares! we drug our hungover ass' out of bed, and thank god my la boo knows the best cure for a hangover is this little spot of joy. i had one fish taco and one shrimp taco which came with chips and salsa, and we were also given an order of pork tacos free of charge. not only is the food extremely low priced, but the food is so rich in quality and portions are great. it's fresh, flavorful and divine in every way, and please enjoy it there sitting in the la sunshine. nothing beats an afternoon delight of great food, sunshine and good company. i am daydreaming about the food as i type. so do me a favor, and get their score up! they deserve it! bravo!

Mixed bag of seafood. One of the quintessential SoCal experiences: enjoying a fish taco in the sun. If you were in San Diego, you'd most likely be doing this by the Pacific Ocean. In LA, you're more likely to be at a food truck or taco shack. The atmosphere at El Siete Mares may not be everybody's bag: lots of sun and some dirty tables along an unremarkable stretch of Sunset. But they do make a mean fish taco. On Tuesdays, you can snag one for $1, and with the portions they provide, two will satisfy (but not fill) you.
Other things I've tried have produced mixed results. The shrimp taco dorados are pretty good. Toastada Ceviche was also decent - though a bit messy. The shrimp and fish flavors of each aren't particularly strong, which is a mark against them. But they're satisfying and inoffensive. Speaking of offensive, I recommend you stay away from the oysters. You can get 6 for $5, and that should have been a red flag, but I kept an open mind. I felt kind of nauseous after eating a few of these. One in particular left me with a bad, spoiled taste in my mouth.
In short - go for Fish Taco Tuesday. It's worth a couple dollars to at least try.
