“We always get take out and decided to dine in, WOW. It was already amazing and it’s just much more amazing in person. The man is perfect. Samosa perfectly crispy. You must stop by. Overall, they are very attentive and friendly!”
“VERY very overpriced lack-lustre food. The food took a long time to come out and was not hot. Very sad as we'd heard it was good. Will not be back!”
“Mom and I enjoyed a wonderful Prime Rib dinner tonight! The food was prepared perfectly and the service by our waiter Derek was outstanding!!!”
“We have driven by the Shores probably over 100 times and have always wanted to check them out. Went Friday night 10/11 and was pleasantly impressed. Was a little busy and took a little bit to get our food but it was well worth the wait. Will definitely be back.”
“I gotta say it was my first time going to Lazy Dog super friendly staff, beautiful ambience, cozy outside patio with heat lamps I order the chicken lettuce wraps, the cheese burger and fries, and my white peach & Raspberry Rose Mixed Sangria. it was a deelish experience!! hands down!!! Follow Your Taste Buds!!!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“We stopped here for a short visit on Labor Day weekend. Why wife tried a couple of the hazy IPAs and I a couple of the West coast IPAs. All four were excellent! We'll definitely make it a point to get back when in the area again!”
“The sashimi is consistently of higher quality - fresh with smoother texture - and the tempura lighter without the oil drenched heaviness of old school home cooking. Overall, the food has a tasty, lighter, and balanced flavor profile that we enjoy. But talking about service, can you imagine our surprise when a waitress walked over to our table and gave us 50.00 in cash (not credit) saying that we overpaid on our last visit - a month ago! Some years earlier, one of the sushi chefs and former student of mine paid for our meal as a surprising and much appreciated gesture of gratitude. Thank you.”
“Super classy great food/service at reasonable price - in historic surroundings. We visited for our anniversary, and I can’t recall a more enjoyable evening. The settings & furniture were exquisite. Get to your reservation a little early and enjoy the surrounding historical buildings gathered from around Oxnard into a Heritage Center. Each property has a little description that is quite educational. Or, wait until you’ve enjoyed the great food for that after-dessert stroll. The food was amazing, from Mahi Salad to full steak dinner with excellent merlot. Same a few sips of that red wine to enjoy with their chocolate cake with raspberry, whipped cream & pecan topping. Whew. As you can witness with the photo, the servings are huge. (We took home another full meal - really.)”
Restaurants with Delivery
“I absolutely love this. The management is amazing. All the employees are so kind warm and welcome me so I’m part of the family during the daytime. There is a manager that works only two I believe 2 PM so she must work the earlier shift and please forgive me for not knowing your name, but I know She is the most amazing kind person quite honest that I’ve met in the last 5 to 10 years just an absolute And you guys should be so grateful to have such an Team leader manager or whatever she may be thank you guys again everything is always wonderful. That’s why I keep coming back.”
“The Manager, David, goes above and beyond for his customers. We ordered delivery and the third party delivery service, Uber Eats, picked-up our order but never delivered. David was patient and understanding with me and went ahead and compensated our meal by re-making it for us. I had my husband pick it up because I'm sick. Uber Eats on the other hand was not apologetic and did not try to fix the situation. Thank you David for your kindness and to other patrons, don't use Uber Eats.”
“Best guacamole anywhere. Made fresh at the table, but somehow there is still something they do that makes it amazing. They make their tortillas in house. For lunch, two of us shared the guac, had a taco a piece and shared a chili rellenos. Everything was delicious. Excellent chill rellenos.”
“Like a trip to Mexico without the hassles at the border!
Two visits so far -- one on the weekend and one midweek. There's a mariachi on the weekend, and futbol on the TV screens always.
Three of us split a big order of ceviche the first time and it was just plain wonderful! The second visit I tried the sopa siete mares which ended up providing me with lunch the next day! Others in our group had fish prepared different ways, all of which were excellent.
The wait staff was helpful, personable and didn't make fun of my ordering in Spanish (and checking in English)!
So don't hesitate -- try this place!”
Outdoor Dining
“Awesome options for local brews good luck to the new owner, super great vibe when your down on the strand for the day, not sure they have food yet maybe popcorn when I was there, super fun and beach so close looks amazing at sunset. Visit every sunset at the strand and then go to the strand they're open later”

“Stopped by for shrimp tacos, 3 for $14 and they were absolutely delicious! Juicy tender shrimp, crunchy red cabbage, pico de gallo and pickled onions. The hot sauces are spectacular and spicy, especially the red and habanero. Outdoor seating was plentiful and very clean. I highly recommend.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We decided to forgo the traditional Thanksgiving feast this year and opted for Smokin' Js instead, and it was an incredible choice! For our group of 8, we ordered the pulled pork and pulled chicken, along with baked beans, cheesy potatoes, and Southern green beans. Every dish was absolutely amazing! The flavors were on point, and we loved that we had plenty of leftovers for several meals afterward. It made our holiday even more special. Thank you, Smokin' Js, for providing such delicious food! We can't wait to come back for more!”
“Visiting family and found this awesome location! Food was amazing we had enchiladas we had beer we had tacos at our store. We had tacos de Asada and tacos de lingua. All amazing pretty sure I’m going to save this so I can come here every time I visit my family
Hello, where is the restroom?”
“Food and drinks here are always great. Sometimes the wait is long because there aren't enough servers. Poke nachos are a must at every visit. I'm not really sure why they give you a salad serving fork to eat with. It's meant for giants I guess. It's ridiculous.”

“We came in to watch a movie on July 4th so we walked around oxnard having a hard time finding a place that was open. Luckily we found El Dorado. Immediately when we were sat we had homemade chips. Staff was very attentive. They had full bar and all the food we got was top notch. Important to support local businesses and was happy to during the holiday.”
“My husband and I were actually looking for a place to buy coffee. To our surprise this was not a panaderia but a restaurant. I had no idea what a "memela" was and ordered that. My husband ordered a carne asada burrito. We were both very happy with our selection. The season was perfect! This place seems to be a good spot for menudo. By the way corn tortillas are hand made. Oh ! What's a Memela ? It's a thick hand made tortilla with melted cheese and the sauce of your choice. Yes!!! An opened quesadilla! Between a quesadilla and a gordita ! I opted for the green salsa because it's their most mild salsa. But so delicious! Provecho Everyone”
“Tasty food. We enjoyed rice sizzling soup, pineapple shrimp and beef and broccoli. All dishes had fresh ingredients and perfectly cooked with exact balance of sweetness and salt. Tried the pineapple shrimp for the first time and loved it. Clean place, great and very attentive service.”
“Sent my dog to the groomers nearby and had time to spare so I went here with my mom. Absolutely fantastic experience there. Portions are great and the food is so good you can’t stop eating! My mom is very picky and now she’s always asking me the next time we’re going back. The service is very kind and helpful if you’re unsure of what to get. Everyone there is so kind and I’m definitely going back again.”

“Very friendly staff! Immediate greeted as soon as I walked in the store. Read back my order and everything! I ordered a famous start medium combo with crisscut fries. Very hot and fresh food came out pretty quick. Clean everywhere I looked. Definitely recommend coming here!”
“Alondra made my quick lunch visit super pleasant!! Made my online order exactly how I Love my meatball sandwich!!!
But what really impressed me was
I noticed her putting on fresh pair of gloves as she greeted her next customer !! And this is how I know mine was done with the upmost sanitary fashion as witnessed!!
Thank you subway for having such phenomenal employees !!”
Takeout Restaurants
“I've been going to this place since I was attending Rio Mesa! I have since moved to Vancouver, WA and there are teriyaki places EVERYWHERE. None compare, still. Sauce is a perfect texture, veggies are always perfectly steamed, portions are amazing. I was so glad to see that this place survived Covid.”
“This is the best authentic NEW YORK STYLE pizza and calzons. If your from the East Coast Freddy's pizza is a most try. Service much more friendly. Great ingredients the sauce is Devine. Price ? About the same as P.M.D. MORE choices then Toppers and almost as expensive. Honestly you can't put a $$$ amount cause it's worth it”
“I order online The plate of Carnitas and the food is always perfect and neatly packed and delicious . can’t really give a star for atmosphere because I’ve yet to step foot in there establishment as I order online . my friend will serve this always at her house and I’m addicted. It’s delicious. They are very accommodating with the notes when you ask for delivery if you don’t want rice if you want something else, they will be. They are very accommodating, this is so delicious.”

“Wow, so amazed that the quality of food I never thought I could find such good Mexican food in the city of Oxnard. Too bad I live far away otherwise I’d be there every single day. Yeah I give them a five star if I can give them more. I would as a small spa hole in the wall, but it’s man it’s amazing. The food is so hot warm homemade homie food. It was perfect thank you guys so much Was on point.”

It was huge so if you are not starving, you might want to get a small ... although I did manage to finish it because it was so yummy. :) Highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back ... I have a long list of things that I want to try!”
“One of the better Korean lunches I’ve had. And what I didn’t order that went out looked even better. Great flavors, friendly staff. A little pricy but the potions warrant paying a little extra.”
Cheap Eats
“Going back to east coast and couldn't leave without visiting this amazing establishment. The food was wonderful. The other guests that sat at the outside tables consuming food with us were awesome too. People you must get out and go to these places and meet the citizens of this wonderful town! And eat this fresh, hot and amazing food while at it!”
“This is actually the only pizza I care to eat in the city of Oxnard. I mean it's cheaper than Topper's and I think it tastes better.
My wife LOVES the cheese sticks and the margherita pizza. I kid you not, seeing I brought her home the cheese sticks puts the biggest smile on her face every time.”
“Amazing place, I had a long time without having an authentic and delicious tacos. The service is great, they're really friendly and super fast getting your food ready.

“This is my go to spot for sushi, I have been going there for over 15 years now. Food is always delicious, I’m always greeted by staff when entering and service is always good.”
“Pizza is always good! I usually get pizza by the slice for lunch. It's a pretty big serving for just one slice, so it's definitely worth it! The dough is made fresh by them, which makes it even better compared to places that just use pre-made crusts. Highly recommend trying this place out!”
“rmuy buena atencion...SIEMPRE QUE VENIMOS A OXNAR VENIMOS A DISFRUTAR AQUI .....DESDE LOS ANGELES CA.”

“I try not to visit the big brand name juice places because there are lots of little ones that need attention. This is one of those small places play finally visited and I am glad I did. We have more than just juices here, but I settled for the mango papaya large size, but I should have settled for something smaller. It was too much for me but I did like it a lot. Service was good.”
“I have been a fan of Wagon Wheel brewery for a few years now. We discovered them while visiting family, and I will now drive 4.5 hours to stock up on our favorites. I love to spend a great mealtime in the Taproom enjoying hands down some of the best burgers and “pub grub” with the nicest people in the business. Always eager to recommend great seasonal pairings and there is always something fun happening that makes me wish I lived closer to enjoy it more frequently and to bring more family and friends. I go home and Rave about this place! I recommend asking for staff favorites from the bar staff and you will probably get to meet Shawn, the chef, Jamison the owner, or Connor, bar manager. All great Guys!! 5 stars all the way!”
“when you need some potato salad and Mac n cheese in your life. This is the place to go”
“I’ve lived out here 26 years and I’ve been asking everybody where a good tamales are. Yesterday I went here and ordered two dozen and these are the best damn tamales I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve been to Costa Rica & los angeles & Mexico - everywhere !these are just crazy good. Totally authentic tender meat moist masa, I’m really pleased they sell the Birria tacos and other things I’m sure you’d be delighted if you ordered anything on the menu!! Crazy good. The green Molé red sauces are delicious. My sons are just eating them up right now we’re full and we’re still eating them because they’re that good!”
“I am not sure, but I think tue quality of the food has gone down. My food was under seasoned. I will try it again maybe the kitchen had an off day. I do love the location and the restaurant is beautiful.”
“This could be the best thin crust pepperoni pizza I've every ate and at $3 a slice it is quite a deal. The slices are huge. I had 2 and I don't think I could eat anymore.”
“If you're looking for a great time, drinks, and atmosphere, this is the place. Very chill, no judgment zone. Everyone is friendly. Family (adult) atmosphere. Not recommended to getting kids.”
“Everything was going well until I realized that they gave me Javiercito in Green Salsa instead of my laundry pozole?
Also the lady with the fanny pack just spends her time live with a certain Polancoas. And Mrs. Rosa told me to come back until 2027 ”
“Is the best place to be on a Jueves de Parranda where they bring the best Grupos, Norteños, Bandas and DJ’s . It also host a slew of great Rock, blues, and Hip Hop & Old School bands among the many musical entertainers in Ventura County! You can come for the drinks and stay for the Music!”
“Came in and our first server took 30 minutes to take our food and he didn't even put in all we ask for. I understand is gets busy but I didn't see him working as much. Spoke to the manager (she was lovely) and switched us servers. Arvin did an AMAZING JOB ! Gave us recommendations and made our night so much better. If you ever come here ask for Arvin to be your server !”
“My husband and I always visit Buffalo Wild Wings. I love their Chipotle BBQ rub traditional wings.. yummy. Watch a ball game of some sort. Have a great time. Swing by sometime. I would have given a 5 star on service, except she had too many customers in her section, and our service suffered a bit on refills. But still love Buffalo Wild Wings.”

“Upon entering the store you can see the clean area, the music, then a compliment when the first person comes out the official greeting "very good morning" how can I help you... the patience in which I transform my sandwich and at the same time Time to pay for excellent costumer service no matter how many people want to speak badly about the place, nothing like this one located at 2847 vineyard ave. I recommend it”

“35-years ago was my first stop in to Camelot Room. A blue-collar, workin’ man’s bar, Joe owned the place, Yvonne ran it .. bartenders were cool, drinks tasty and cheap, locals tight and friendly .. and this place just immediately felt like ‘Home.’ Over the years, we ate, drank, smoked, joked, sang and screwed our way thru some damn good times!! In 3 1/2 decades, regulars who became dear friends have come, gone .. many passing away. But does the heart good to know the same cool ‘locals vibe’ is alive and well .. and new generations are finding appreciation for what is still, the best kept secret in town. My respect… ??”
