The brainchild of Frank Mendoza, El Sushi Loco is a place to bond with family and a lively place to hang out with friends. El Sushi Loco may be the truest expression of East meets West, with tastes and textures both exotic and familiar. The flavors and ambiance provide the perfect place for a festive and tasty lunch or dinner.

El Sushi Loco History
Frank Mendoza purchased a street vendor food cart from a Craigslist ad. He paid $1200 and began selling his unique cuisine on the streets of Tijuana, Mexico. Mexican sushi is not your usual street food and was a hard sell to both Tijuana’s tourists and locals. The undeniably unique taste required a unique population of foodies for Frank Mendoza’s dreams to be fulfilled. In 2010 Mendoza pushed his cart across the border and into the United States, eventually setting up shop on the streets of Los Angeles. In its food-cart days, the Mexican-Asian fusion food concept was called Sushi Island, and Frank Mendoza, his wife, and his nephew developed the brand tirelessly, serving high-quality Mexican sushi and mariscos.
