I'm just a visiting local out-of-towner looking for some bulk to catch up with the hangover. It's been quite the weekend. Good job! CritDicks

    Very mediocre. Skip this, go somewhere else…read more The food is not worth it. Nothing was great. I've ate here in the past, and couldn't remember if it was good or not. I should have made the review before, to remind me that it's not worth it. The service was ok. Our waitress tried her best. She might be better off writing down what people ordered instead of trying to remember things, she missed three things with our party. First, my niece asked, before ordering a pancake combo, if she could get one pancake made with just blueberries and one with just chocolate. Waitress came back and said yes, but that's all she told us.. Second, my wife ordered her corn beef hash with home style potatoes. Instead, the order came to the table with hash browns. I tried her corn beef hash, it was one of the worse ever. Definitely canned stuff, and not made right. It's like someone thought they could make it, so they must went ahead and did it. Third, I ordered a standard burger with onion rings, it came out with fries. For my order, I told the waitress and she got this corrected right away. The burger was just ok. The bun was nice and buttered, brioche. The meat was juicy and cooked medium as requested. It was under-seasoned, but was okay for me as I usually try to get low sodium, but this makes it taste incomplete. Let's talk about my niece's pancakes though, they came out mixed, both blueberries and chocolate in both pancakes instead of two separate pancakes. And when the bill came, I was charged extra charge for each thing. $3 for the chocolate. $3 for the blueberries. Plate came out over $22, that's crazy. Inside is decently clean and large. Lots of space, although maybe it was because we came in a weekday early at 8:45. Anyway, skip it, not worth it. I prefer the local IHOP.

    We've been to plenty of fancy restaurants in OC and LA but this place probably beats out majority…read moreof them. The food here is absolutely AMAZING. We came here to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. We each ordered a cocktail. She got a blueberry margarita and I got a cucumber gin mixed drink. Both were refreshing and delicious. We ended up ordering another round. For appetizers we ordered the crispy maple Brussels and tuna & salmon tartare. The Brussels were fried to perfection and glazed a sweet maple syrup. It also came with thick cuts of bacon. Definitely recommend this. For the tartare, it was also delicious and fresh. It was mixed with avocado and turnip. We thought the turnip would be off putting but it actually meshed well with the flavors. Came with fried wonton chips. For the main course we shared the NY strip and Lobster Malfaldine. The steak was cooked to perfection with a very nice sear and flavored well. Probably one of the better steaks I've ever had. Definitely beats out any steakhouse steak. The Lobster Malfaldine was also absolutely delicious. Most of the time, lobster pasta is usually a bit bland and lacking in lobster. NOT HERE. They included big chunks of lobster and the sauce was so good. Lastly, we ended our dinner with the Strawberry Hand Pie. This is basically a warm strawberry strudel with vanilla bean ice cream. They used locally sourced strawberries and I'm still thinking about it as I'm writing this review. Adrienne was our server and she was very nice and attentive. Since it was my girlfriend's birthday, they comped our dessert. Super nice staff!

However the quality control & staff members are sadly inconsistent. They are slow to greet slow to check back in (poorly trained). Some times the Bloody Mary has salt sometimes not, sometimes there is 5 pieces of bacon for breakfast sometimes 3. Food often comes out not at the same time so some items are cold while others just arrived (again poor training). At that price point everything should be on point!

As a vegan, I was prepared to accept my usual limited selection at a real Mexican restaurant, but I was pleasantly surprised to see a few unique options other than fruit & potatoes. I ended up getting the street corn (I asked for it plain because I just love naked corn lol), with a side of nopales. Wow, those nopales were amazing! Covered in a green chile salsa that had the perfect kick of heat, and I ordered a side of tortillas to make my own tacos. Yum! Bonus points for my refreshing margarita w/ that good crunch ice (iykyk) & hubby's bottomless mimosa w/ choice of juice (he went w/ cranberry). The restaurant was clean & comfortable, with plenty of parking. Full bar semi-separate from the dining room. We'll definitely be back!

They also have an espresso bar and we got a mocha latte and cafe de olla... both were top notch! The chilaquiles were really good and the red sauce on them was amazing! It was very flavorful yet mild. The chicken fried steak was one of the best I've had in recent memory. The meat was nice and tender yet the breading was nice and crunchy. The woman serving us was kind, informative, and attentive as well. I love the old school diner vibe as well. The place is very spacious. They also have a full bar which we did not utilize at 8 am this time around. Overall it was really great and we will definitely be back! My new favorite breakfast spot in Oxnard!
