Really quaint spot in downtown Camarillo run by a husband and wife team. Food and experience were amazing, will definitely be back!

My niece Delilah and I visited a fairly new restaurant in Camarillo, and we were really impressed. We started with the pork belly bites, which were absolutely amazing--so good that I set a couple aside to bring home for my kids. We also shared one of the best burgers I've ever had, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Delilah ordered the bone marrow, and she loved it. The lemonade could've used a bit more sugar, but otherwise it was good. Our server, Ely, was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Overall, a delicious meal and great service. We'll definitely be back! read more

Another wonderful dinner was enjoyed at Azafran. Mauricio is friendly and makes excellent suggestions. I tried the outstanding seasonal mushroom soup. My husband had the vibrant broccoli soup made with coconut milk and pepitas. We shared the seared salmon which was served with the most creamy and delightful mashed potatoes. The mint lemonade is frothy and fabulous. You can't go wrong at this restaurant. Everything has been delicious. read more

Called to ask a question and the person( Lady) who answered the phone was plain rude. I understand busy and having to make reservations but she was just plain pushy. Sad because we went there a few times when they first started and we enjoyed every time. Maybe she did not like that I asked for corkage fee but if eating good food ( which it is) I like to bring my pick of wine. read more

I can see why this place has nearly 5 stars. The burger was cooked perfectly and so delicious! Loved the sauces and the house potatoes were amazing. Service was super kind and friendly--can't wait to come back! read more

Azafran Restaurant - Burger with house potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Camarillo, California

Wasn't sure what to expect, but beyond glad we stopped to eat here. On our way to Paso Robles, we got hungry for breakfast and turned to Yelp. This small, open restaurant that sits on a busy corner popped up. We walked in, were asked to sit anywhere and were helped right away. The waitress and chef were super friendly and worked well together as a team. The fig and goat cheese sourdough toast was spread and cut perfectly. The Crillo (I think that's how you spell it) was on another level. The sauce on the side was indescribably good! The steak was cooked perfectly. Overall it was all amazing! read more

I had been wanting to try Azafran for some time as I had heard only positive reviews from locals. I am a vegetarian so have to make sure that anywhere new has options for me besides a salad. I went for lunch with a friend. She ordered Avocado Toast. SOOO good. I had the Pesto Pasta and asked them to add Broccoli. It was VERY good and a generous serving size for a lunch entree. Prices were incredibly reasonable for the quality of food. The are a couple of other options (Veggie Sandwich, and Veggie Omlette) that I look forward to trying soon. Excellent food and value! read more

Azafran continues to amaze me. Tonight it was the ribeye!!! I am working my way through their menu. So far everything has been top notch.

Small place unique atmosphere. Food was good. Like home cooked . good but a little slow. Not sure if it's always that way we've only been there once. read more

This place was absolutely amazing! My fiancée came in around 5:30 on a Thursday night. Ely was our server and she was the best. The food was the star of the show. We ordered the octopus, the bone marrow, the shrimp tacos, the fig and goat cheese toast, the ceviche of the day and the mussels. These were all appetizers and everything was spectacular. Shrimp tacos and octopus were the top two. Chef Weyland has got something really special happening in Camarillo. If you're in town go to this place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. read more

I felt so guilty for delaying trying this restaurant after we finally went. All this good food could've been in my life for the past 7 months! Everything we had was excellently delicious!! They don't just taste homey but the presentation was pretty too. I had dined here 3x now. I had tried a mix of their breakfast and lunch menu. - Chaufa with pork belly: love this fried rice flavor. - breakfast arepa: I really like this too. Good amount of steak - goat cheese & fig toasts: standard, but lovely. - chicharron sandwich: the pork belly is good, tastes better with the sriracha mayo sauce. - steak and egg: cooked perfectly. - pulpo (octopus): my favorite!! The staff & the chef are super nice and friendly too. read more

I have been here many, many times. Food is superior to anything we have here in Camarillo. I do find the seating lacking and not super comfy given the quality of the food. Service is good, friendly and they remember me which is nice. Prices are steep but well worth the money. Highly recommend. read more

The food was excellent my wife had the salmon dish and I had the duck. Both were perfectly cooked and tasted wonderful. Service was awesome !! I couldn't have been happier. This was our first time there and we will definitely be going back We want to try the paella . read more

I absolutely love their burger! I get the egg and avo on the side. Sooo tasty and yum!

We really like this restaurant!! Also, everyone that we have taken to this restaurant, loves this place too. Their breakfast, lunch, and dinner food is all delicious. They even carry a few different bottles of wine that pair nicely. The burger is very good, also the duck, and pork belly, and fish dishes are cooked perfectly, seasoned well, and the taste is excellent. Please give this family owned restaurant a tray read more

I'm here writing this review as I just finished my meal. The burger is off the chain! My wife had their omelette, home potatoes and amazing.

Went in yesterday, Saturday morning to support this Restaurant. It did not disappoint Both my friend and I ordered the Criollo dish. Arepas are like corn tortillas but a little thicker and finer dough. Steak was so delicious and tender. Potatoes were yummy. One order of coffee is plenty for two. It comes in a coffee press. Very rich and delicious coffee for only $5. Owner was very attentive. Great location on the corner with lots of windows. Please support this restaurant so we don't lose it. read more

The server was personable and funny, the food and drinks were delicious. I ordered what the server suggested and was really happy with it. Went with friends and stayed a long time talking and laughing and never felt like they were trying to rush us out. I recommend this place highly! read more

Seriously. A must visit. The food is incredible. We've tried breakfast and lunch and both have knocked out socks off. Some of our absolute faves: Fig & Goat cheese toast, avocado toast, pork belly bites, steak and eggs breakfast, shrimp tacos, even the patatas bravas are ridiculous. Service was excellent every time (just understand it is not a rushed environment, so if you're in a hurry, you may want to follow up on getting the bill quickly, but never rush the chef ;)) and the ambience is always chill with just the right music playing. Small business at its best. read more

Our first time!!! Wow!!! Food is 10 out of 10. My daughter and I had a beautiful brunch. Can't wait to try dinner and if you are looking for delicious, amazing food..... this restaurant waits for you. Thank you for an amazing time. See you soon read more

Finally tried this local place for dinner and boy is it worth the hype. Showed up on a Friday evening without a reservation and were able to get the last available table for two. The service was stellar - friendly, attentive and provided recommendations. We had the turnip and green apple soup - very rich, the potatoes - oooh a bit spicy!, and the chaufa with chicken - perfect amount of seasoning, absolutely delicious. We loved the coziness of this small restaurant and the personalized attention. This will likely become our new go-to for end of week dining out, can't wait to try breakfast! read more

So excited to discover this new gem in Camarillo - warm and welcoming service, exquisitely balanced flavor profiles and elevated plating showcases delectable Colombian cuisine. It's a welcome addition to the cultural food scene in Camarillo. My friend and I spent nearly 2 1/2 hours slowly savoring the food and treat. She also ordered a coconut lemonade which was deliciously light and tart- and not at all heavy as I expected it to be with the coconut milk. Shrimp tacos-- juicy, tender, tart and creamy tacos in a corn tortilla that didn't fall apart when handled. As my friend said -- this is not first date food- messy, but finger licking good. Peruvian ceviche, fresh fish, Peruvian corn kernels that are crispy and a good foil to the acidity of the incredibly delectable crudo, which I finished off with a spoon as if it were soup. Sweet potato two ways - a purée with a hint of tart that complimented the sweet, and crispy house made sweet potato chips. The pièce de resistance was the pan seared octopus with a white bean purée that will make you think you're eating the best mashed potatoes you've ever eaten. The octopus is flawlessly seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection. The char is perfect and a morsel of the bean purée with the octopus is out of this world - creamy, crispy, tender, homey and yet so elegant. Tres Leche Cake was delicious with finely slivered pieces of fresh strawberry. Get over there before this place is discovered by too many and is overrun read more

Excellent food. My daughter had the chicken sandwich. It was a bit messy, but she said it was delicious. I have the ceviche and enjoyed it. We were there on a Wednesday and only found out after we had ordered that they offer paella on Wednesdays. We'll have to go back to try it. read more

Honestly, one of the best meals I've had in a looooong time. Service was great. I can't wait to go try their steak dish. Get the sangria. Make a reservation. read more

A delicious Spanish fusion restaurant with quality in every detail. Authentic service and humble beginnings but truly unique place. I love to go for their breakfast almost weekly, and dinner offers some great options too! Can't recommend enough! read more

Azafran Restaurant - Neapolitan breakfast, French press coffee, and side greens/blueberries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Camarillo, California

I am always looking to support small minority food businesses. Also searching for new menus, in this case ethnic food, away from the usual, mundane breakfast or lunch items. Azafran, in Camarillo, is run by a cute Colombian couple and they state that their restaurant is a Latin fusion establishment. The dining area is small but cozy. The menus are very limited, but attractive. First, I had to have coffee. Served uniquely, and bursting with flavor. For food, I chose the Huevos Criollos, a Colombian presentation of scrambled eggs, steak, arepa, corn, cheese and potatoes. The whole dish blew me away, in all departments. The eggs were soft and creamy, not too much cheese (the way I like it). The steak pieces were medium rare, cooked perfect, juicy with char flavor and had satisfying texture. The potatoes had the right blend of crispness, softness and rosemary flavor. If anything needs improvement, I would say that the arepa was overdone and dry, hence difficult to even cut. Service was friendly, attentive, informative and superb. A good find. Muchas Gracias. read more

Happened upon their grand opening today, and I'm excited to see what Azafran will bring to Camarillo! This is a charming, Columbian family-owned restaurant, and I had the chance to chat with Camila for a bit to learn a little more about their passion for food. Her husband, the chef, will be curating a rotating American menu with a little Peruvian-Columbian twist here and there, using locally sourced ingredients. They offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner options and I'm stoked about some of the appetizers on the menu, like Crudo. I tried the Peruvian Ceviche and the Patatas bravas. I would've loved more lime and chips with their ceviche but their patatas bravas were AMAZING - the perfect seasoning and crisp to the potatoes. It seems like they still might be figuring out their overall vibe and are eager to learn what locals from Camarillo (Camarillians?) enjoy. Either way, I'm definitely coming back for that chicharron sandwich! read more

I love this restaurant. Have been many times for breakfast and it never disappoints. Nothing like it in Camarillo. Hot coffee, friendly owners, no wait, good prices. I hope they never leave. It's very unassuming, but when you go in it feels like you're transported to another country. The French press coffee is out of this world. 10/10! read more
