Best Seafood in Corona
Master Critic Review
J Nazca Palace
7.8
A newer Peruvian restaurant on Junction Blvd that leans into mariscos—seafood chaufa, arroz con mariscos, and ceviche—supported by cocktails and late hours. It works best as a casual-but-upgraded night out when you want seafood-focused plates and a livelier room than the old-school spots.
Must-Try Dishes:
Arroz Chaufa Con Mariscos, Arroz Con Mariscos, House Ceviche

What to order: Arroz chaufa con mariscos, arroz con mariscos, a ceviche to share
Insider tip: Build the table around one rice-with-seafood dish per two people, then layer ceviche and sides rather than over-ordering mains.
