    California Burrito

    So I came to chronic taco today for lunch. I've never been here before I've seen it. Driving past the mall and I also seen it when I go to the local cupcake store shout out to Nadia cakes in Palmdale California in Jersey Mike's, which is right next-door, which I did get a sandwich from there anyway I ordered a California burrito with chicken no guac and some churros bite first let me tell you about this burrito in the description of California burritos has meat, fries, salsa, guacamole, and lime. This burrito taste like nothing but lime and pico de gallo. The veggies tasted very fresh in the burrito, but that is the only thing that I could taste is salsa, pico de gallo, and lime could not taste the chicken or anything else inside the burrito then I went to try out the churro bites worst churro bite I've ever had. It's still stuck in my tooth and the sauce taste like bottled sauce caramel I would not recommend. in the end I don't know if I'll be coming back to this. I didn't really see anything else on the menu that intrigued me to come back and my first taste was not positive and now my breath stinks thank you. Chronic taco. The service was wonderful. The people behind the counter were very nice. They knew about them menu ambience is pretty cool. It's a really nice restaurant. I can't remember if they have TVs. I'm pretty sure I saw one, but.

    Al Pastor taco... Dry and bland

    Ordered grubhub for lunch and just paid $17.40 for their surf & turf burrito that was about 90% beans and rice. I probably got one bite of asada and it had maybe 3 shrimp. Also ordered 2 al pastor tacos... Very dry... Flavorless. Will not order from here again.

    Not good at all it's all bland best tacos are the taco stand or the trucks better food for your money. This place was dirty and food was not good at all

    Chronic Taco's.

    Ok. I found this kinda off putting. I think this was or will be our last time here. So, hubby was with me, I stayed in the car (CTScan), pulled up and hubby runs in to order my nacho's. I had a coupon for a free drink upon check in, sent hubby the screen shot of said coupon. They (Chronic) wanted my cell since I'm the only one using Yelp. And we're in a pandemic, were you planning on touching my cellphone? Yes, I hit the use now and it clearly shows how much time I had left. Screenshot to hubby. Yet when he went back in with my cell and they said because I hit use it now,was a no go on their end. Fact: anything that's ordered from the fountain drink area is around $.50 with the cup. Well Chronic Taco's you may have lost a customer over $.50. ‍ Bad Intel from hubby. Edit in play. A very nice customer in back of hubby nodded when hubby explained how spicy I like my food. I love Ghost Pepper's and some times that's not enough heat for me. Carolina Reaper is awesome tho. ;-) Nice Customer, knew instantly how spicy I like my food. Thank you. This is more about principal, not a soda. For the new girl behind the counter you get 5 stars, to the woman (Manager, who knows) you get minus 5 stars. When you were asked by the young lady on what to do, instead of doing it right as a lead for the person taking orders, you failed the new worker. Please learn the menu and 5 stars for the food as well. BTW: we are in the 100 degrees area and hubby had to go back and forth to me 4X not cool. We may look younger here due to our ethnicity, we are in our mid 50's. First time, "We don't have nacho's" screenshot to hubby's cell from my Yelp account. Wow, magic occurred and suddenly they had nacho's, wrong on Chronic Taco's. 2-3-4 all had to do with the coupon and Yelp, never had this type of issues in the past. You (Female Manager) only had 1 job, train your new people. Try kindness too, like hubby showed you. Some advice, perhaps a change in career is needed. Best of luck to the young lady running the til. Pretty sure you'll be a great manager.

My husband and I went to Viva Madrid for our anniversary, we went out for the first time alone since our baby was born 1 1/2 years ago. I will say that the drinks and service were great As a chef, I would be so embarrassed to serve the food that my husband and I were served. The mushrooms in white wine sauce were flavorless and slimy. We ordered the pan con tomate and it was like they opened a can of tomato paste and spread it on a piece of white bread. We were informed that any entree would take exactly 1 hour to execute. We ordered the Paella Mixta and Filet Mignon. The mussels were overcooked, the shrimp had no seasoning, and it seemed like they weren't really paying attention to executing the dish correctly. The Filet Mignon was not seared at all, super disappointing for it being a $45 dish! The sauce was drowning the meat and the potatoes were way overcooked. I don't usually expect much but this was very disappointing. I think maybe it's time to reevaluate some of your side dishes or have cooks that care about how your food tastes.

Small place but great ambiance…read moreand even better service and to wrap it all up is a gorgeous meal Ordered Kale Salad: 3/5 - If you need a good palette cleanser then this is a good one to have. You can't really go wrong with a the kale version of a house salad however there are plenty of other options you could order Scallop Crudo: 5/5 - So incredibly blown away by this? I don't think I've scallop this good in years. Melts in your mouth, the sauce is light but perfectly pairs with the fish. I could not get over this one Gambas Al Ajillo: 5/5 - If I could lick the plate clean publicly and without discrimination I would've. The sauce reminded me of some of the best pasta ive ever had. The shrimp was big and well marinated, oh what fun this one was! It was a crime this didn't have more bread to soak it in. I'm not just leaving money on the table, I'm leaving bliss. Potatoes: 5/5 - These were really good! I loved the heat this had and the sauce to go with it. The seasoning great, the skin was crispy but still a soft moist potato inside. These were great to share. Paella Mariscos - 4.5/5 - After everything we had this was a fairly good portion for 3 people even though it says it serves 2 (I still stand by the 2 serving if you don't have much tapas). With that said I think this was a little more on the simpler side when it came to flavor. You could tell it wasn't trying to do too much while still letting you know she's the star of the show. There was a good amount of seafood all of which was cooked really well. The rice was perfect and the sauce ratio was great as well. I had some the next day and it was even better. I really think those scallops just stayed in my mind the whole night. Bread Pudding - 4/5 - I really appreciated the creativity behind reinventing the bread pudding! It was like a cinnamon roll esc type which was a fun but not blow me out of the water dessert. With that said everything on there looked so good so my eye is on the key lime next. Wine: The Albarino was great! I've never heard of it but was a fan favorite. Paired great with all the food. For 3 the total came out to $280 (with tip) which wasn't that bad. Service: 5/5 I forgot our servers name but he was so sweet! He gave us his recs, checked in on us frequently and was accommodating. I also feel like he was serving a lot of tables so his service was stellar! Ambiance: 5/5 The place is tinnyyy but man I am obsessed with the interior. Its swanky without it being pretentious. Intimate feeling but can feel the atmosphere. Not sure what the noise level was like inside, we were outside (two tables on the sidewalk), but it seems like it could get a little loud. Parking: N/A - Its a prime spot on ventura, only metered so...can't really knock the place off that. Really excited to come back here! Hopefully in the near future!

The food was absolutely delicious, which is why I'm leaving this review, but unfortunately the service missed the mark during our most recent visit. We ordered our steak medium rare, but it came out well done. When our server took our order, our appetizers arrived quickly and then our entrees followed, but we had to remind him about the Starry soda that was ordered and never brought out initially. The biggest issue occurred when the Aguachile Ribeye was brought to our table. One of the plates was broken, causing food and sauce to spill all over me and the seat. While the server acknowledged something happened, there wasn't much concern shown about the spill on my shorts, and no replacement plate was offered. A simple apology and a little more attention to the situation would have gone a long way. Later, when we asked for a box for the leftover steak, it took quite a while and I ended up having to remind our server again. Overall, the food was fantastic and is the reason I continue to come back. The kitchen clearly knows what they're doing. However, the service could use some improvement, especially when it comes to attention to detail and handling issues when they arise. I'll still be back because I genuinely enjoy the food, but I hope the service experience improves on future visits.

In Ventura's industrial area, the Cave is a nice, cozy restaurant that is hidden in the Ventura Wine Company shop. We were greeted by live music which made a lively atmosphere. They have the self vending wine machine with a decent variety of wines for all. I'm going to be honest - I did question the pour size. We ended up buying a bottle of wine at dinner instead and I'm pretty sure that was the economical choice plus it gave me peace of mind. I will say - the plating of the food is strange. Giant plates for small portions never really sits well with me. The kitchen's "thinly sliced" waygu steak was also off putting visually. The Jumbo Scallops w/Leek & Truffle Risotto ($46) is a must order. Scallops perfectly pan seared and that risotto I would eat by itself. The Lemon Chardonnay sauce was incredible. The Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs ($39) was okay. The meat fell apart as it should. The red wine sauce was okay but lacked depth. The creamy mashed potatoes were very good and seasoned perfectly. Wasn't mad that I tried it but would not order again. Wagyu Top Sirloin 12 oz. ($48) was very good despite the poor slicing. The creamy mushroom sauce was perfect to add some flavor but not overpower the protein. The Pepperoni Pizza ($18) was decent for my son. My daughter planned to order the Seafood Pasta until she saw all of her favorite things combined: Mac and cheese, bacon and pizza - the Mac and Cheese Pizza ($21) was honestly top notch. It wasn't overly heavy, the depth of flavor was great and it's extremely tasty. The spicy aioli was top notch. Overall, a good experience at the Cave. I recommend giving it a try.
