Very glad to have stumbled into Arturo's about 4 or 5 years ago. The "Mid Century Mexican" architecture caused me to U-turn and then blew me away. Sven's photos nail the whole vibe of the place. I remember sipping on a margarita one evening while looking out one of those very large plate glass windows into the parking lot, watching two great big Raccoons ambling between the cars... escapism in Lomita, CA...fantasy inside, reality outside! I wish I was a restaurateur with a lot of time & money...
