This restaurant is absolutely incredible. I cannot believe it has been open for two years and I live so close. I wish I had discovered it sooner because everything was amazing from start to finish. The dessert, the appetizers, the atmosphere, all of it was perfect. I had the paella and it was outstanding, full of flavor and beautifully prepared. We will definitely be coming back. If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Do not miss this hidden gem.

Steak and Eggs
Lou H.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I stopped in to try this place, but I'm glad I finally did. The flavors of the steak and eggs, along with the side sauces that have a slight spice, all had my taste buds celebrating. Even their fresh squeezed orange juice was a perfect pairing for the steak and eggs. My buddy said his ribeye sandwich was amazing too. The place was clean, ambiance was nice and service was friendly. I can't wait to come back and try more menu items. Update: the very next day I came back with the wife. The place was busy, there's only 1 server, but she did a great job in juggling all the tables. This time I true the ribeye sandwich which was another amazing dish. My early valentine date for the Chaufa with chicken which was a cross between a paella and chicken fried rice, also pretty good and a hefty portion. As an appetizer we had pork belly bites which ended up being my favorite. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

Smoked salmon 5/5
marissa l.

Second time here and I'm in love! It's such a peaceful yet vibey space . Service is great and food is phenomenal. We ordered: Smoked salmon is a must have! 5/5 Neapolitan 5/5 I dream about this dish it's so good. Calentado 4/5 It was really good just not my fave next to the Neapolitan and salmon. It's light in flavor so I'd suggest have this first . French press Coffee was coffee but in a press! Herbal tea (in a press too) 5/5

Duck ! The best ever
Jeanine S.

This meal was just amazing . We always forget how incredible every meal we have had here is . Tonight we came here and the halibut ceviche it was so fresh . It came with sweet potato smash which seems not right but when you taste this infusion of flavors coconut milk and all the secrets , wow is about all you can say ! The combination of flavors is so unique . I had the duck . That duck was the best I have ever had ! We asked for the owner who is the chef to just say how good it was ! The perfect amount of salt crunch moisture and just the flavors was perfection .i have had duck I make duck ... this duck wins . The service from Elle was good too , she knows the dishes and exactly the region they ate from . The menu offers many options . Something for all but not overwhelming with too many choices . This restaurant is so quaint in our town of Camarillo Thank you

Flavor has hit the streets of Old Town Camarillo. A family owned and operated Colombian and Peruvian fusion restaurant is bringing much needed flavor and tradition to downtown Camarillo. All of my friends have ranted and raved about this spot saying they are a must try! With almost a perfect 5 star rating on Yelp this spot has been on my "need to hurry here" list for a hot minute. Azafran has made a name for themselves and are definitely a favorite amongst locals. The menu is intriguing and there is a perfect mixture of classic breakfast dishes and more unique plates. Staff are friendly and welcoming, it's definitely a family friendly restaurant. Here's what we had: Chicharron Sandwich : This was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time! The Chicharrón - pork was extra crispy and flavorful. Perfectly done and I loved the fatty bits. The fresh and pickled veggies gave a lightness to this sandwich and the side spicy mayo aioli-oil drizzle was heavenly. Some papas on the side, this was a filling and delicious dish. I'll be coming back for this again and would HIGHLY recommend. Lox Toast: my friend had a generous portion of Lox Toast which she was super happy with. The portions are generous and the toast also comes with a side of their famous papas or fruit. If you are looking for a more classic breakfast dish here their toasts all sounded fabulous. To drink they have some unique creations. I opted for a Coconut Lemonade which was so refreshing and tasty. My friend had a gorgeous Colombian cold press coffee. We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and it definitely was a delicious meal. The food is a 10/10 and the interior is cozy and warm. The staff were very friendly and the pace is very casual and laid-back. This is the kind of place you go for a slow weekend meal with friends and good conversation. Can't wait to come back soon and please give this local small buisness a try.

Pork Belly Bites
Selene C.

Excellent ! Kudos to the Chef ! The Octopus was delicious and perfectly cooked. The Pomodoro sauce was nice and smooth. The Salmon was amazing with sautéed mushrooms and those Pork Belly bites !!! WOW. Located in the downtown area, the restaurant has nice decor and soft music in the background. Maria was on top of everything, checking up on us, making sure everything was to our satisfaction and IT WAS ! Thank you.

Tres Leches Cake
Chris S.

Happened to be in Camarillo today. We decided to try Azafran. First time here. We walked into a very comfortable dining room. It wasn't terribly busy and we were seated immediately. We started with the shrimp taco appetizer. It was very flavorful and you could immediately tell that the shrimp was extremely fresh! I ordered the Pomodoro pasta with Mushroom and Shrimp. My wife asked for the Steak Chaufa. I received the Parpadelle with mushroom and shrimp in. Not exactly what I ordered, but I ate it and loved it. My wife's fried rice with steak was good too. We both could not finish our dishes. They were filling. The topper though was the Trees Leches cake (yes we saved a bit of room for desert). It was moist and had just a touch of sweetness. I prefer it this way, not too sweet. Overall, it was a great find. The server was very nice. The atmosphere was very comfortable. I bookmarked this for a future trip to Camarillo.

Duck Magret

Had the bone marrow and duck. The duck was amazing. Highly recommend this place. Third time in two weeks, everything has been top notch Service is great.

Octopus appetizer! Just try it!
Tina M.

Delicioso! Saturday breakfast date, Sade playlist on while Hubs and I shared the avocado toast and açai bowl with French dripped coffee. If you haven't eaten here yet, you're missing out! Would've posted a pic but couldn't wait!

Shrimp tacos
Ryan M.

A Camarillo hidden gem -- what an amazing culinary experience. The flavor profile of each dish was incredible, from the perfectly cooked Grilled Octopus, to the uniquely delicious Peruvian Ceviche. I would come back for the Peruvian Ceviche alone, as it was one of the best tasting dishes I've had in a long while. I ordered everything for takeout, but it held up really well. The server who helped me out was very friendly and patient. Although we didn't eat our meal inside, the ambiance was very warm and welcoming, with nice decor. Next time, we'll definitely have to eat there. We tried the Peruvian Ceviche, Shrimp Tacos, Grilled Octopus, Chow Plate with Pork Belly, and I got a Coconut Lemonade to top it off. Everything was exceptional, and I can't wait to try more items off the menu next time we visit.

AVO toast w potatoes and acai bowl

10/10 everything and server so so sweet and helpful! Avocado toast is best I've ever had

Bone marrow
Megan G.

So happy I found this quaint little spot in Camarillo!! Started off with the pan seared octopus - the sweetness of the pear paired well with the crispy, yet tender octopus. The roasted bone marrow was amazing. The marrow had great seasoning topped with chimichuri for a little kick, and was served with garlicky buttered toast. For my main, I went with the lamb foreshank, which was fall off the bone tender. Service was great and friendly. Ambiance is casual. I really appreciate places like this where you can get dinner quality meals at lunchtime! Highly recommend if you're in Old Town!

This is a hidden gem in our small town! Everything I've had is fantastic: the salmon toast ( all the toasts are very filling), the octopus, the bone marrow, the paella - which is only available Tuesdays and Wednesdays is incredible!! Different types too, seafood paella, vegetable paella, meat paella, all huge portions all delicious. Staff is so friendly, the owner is the chef and so so nice! I went for my first time last week and was back today to try more delish dishes! It's my new favorite spot :)

Chaufa with shrimp!

We've driven by Loru's for years and never gone in. We finally did for breakfast and what a find!…read more It' had a charming mission decor and the inside is packed a little tighter than I might like, but there is plenty of friendly service and amazing food to make up for it. They have an expansive menu that is almost overwhelming, but it's clear each item should be there and is delicious. There are so many options everyone can find something they will love. My son ordered the Loru's Combo with the cinnamon roll French toast. OMG...he loved it and I have to agree. Perfect texture and cinnamon flavor. A must order again My husband enjoyed the Machaca with over easy eggs...perfection! Not a smidge left on the plate. The best item was the Chiliquilles Divoriciados. Wow! Both red and green sauce with beans, eggs and crispy creamy hashbrowns were out of this world and the table agreed. That is a must order again! Pair this with a mimosa and you're in business! This place is packed but moves quickly. Can't wait to come back and try lunch or dinner or another great breakfast!

Have been here twice. Reviewing this time and it's average. We did come on a Sunday so of course…read morebusy. But found service to be nothing ordinary. Needed to get our waiters attention for anything. Asking for water and he had to mention to us he needs to delegate it to the water boy. Food was okay. Mozzarella sticks were hot and fresh. For a Sunday not too bad. Like the location being by the mall. There is a playground to wait at with kids near.
