    Belgian waffle and eggs
    Anastacia M.

    Was waiting to get my car done and they recommended this place. Great service they keep your coffee refilled! My son loved his steak and eggs snd biscuits. They have a bunch of great specials and they let you substitute the bacon for turkey bacon at no extra charge! My Belgian waffles were great. The eggs come from happy local farm raised chickens and you can taste the difference! Generous portions! We will be back to try something new.

    Special #1 pancakes eggs and bacon

    This is one of the most consistent things in my life--Henri's. I frequent this place on the weekends, and even at their busiest, they do a great job serving, making sure your coffee cup is filled, and are so friendly. I always get a big smile and hug from my favorite server. I get the pancakes eggs and bacon and I haven't found a place that has as fluffy and flavorful pancakes. Nice portion and good syrup too. I love a diner style breakfast joint that keeps it simple but quality.

    Awaiting car repairs...I decided to dine at a local mom and pops cafe down the street. Henri's Cafe was the name of the local diner. My daughter and I wasn't escorted to the table. The lady greeted us near the entry door and told us just take a seat wherever. We sat in a booth and I notice the place wasn't the cleanest. I ordered a 6 piece chicken wings as appetizer and grilled salmon salad as the entree. My daughter had cheese quesadillas along with French fries. The service sucked and could be a lot better. The taste of the food was not enough to patronize this business again. This place needs strong leadership and a little love and care and could actually have the potential of being a great diner due to its location.

    This place always leaves me satisfied it's a classic breakfast spot. They keep the coffee filled and fresh the staff is always friendly. The food comes fast portions and prices are good. Very clean restaurant and I enjoy watching all the cars and people of the five points. One of my favorite go to breakfast spots

    Clam chowder - fridays only
    Alex W.

    First time coming and can't say the food was superb, but can't say they were bad either for a cafe. At a busy intersection, getting to the lot itself will take some patience as the lights take a while. There is a small parking lot on site. Upon arriving, we were told to sit anywhere along this side of the wall. Once seated, we were asked for drinks and they came promptly. We ordered their specialty dishes - meatloaf with clam chowder (added) and the wife did country fried steak. Appearances, the food is decent looking. The winning visual I thought were the plates. There is just something about eating on nice heavy plates at a diner that is appealing to the experience. For the meatloaf, I quite enjoyed it. Strong meaty flavor with diced celery and carrot pieces inside. The carrots and celery could have been diced more finely for better visuals, but it was fine as is. The mashed potato and steamed veggies were average. Not much taste to the veggies and the potatoes were on the dense side of things. The gravy was a bit salty, but it wasn't too bad as the potato and veggies were on the blander side. For the country fried steak, I'm told it was okay. The batter is a bit different and the chicken inside reminded her of chicken patty instead of a chicken steak. For the clam chowder, it wasn't bad. Had decent quantity of ingredients and a nice creamy texture and taste to it. The garlic bread that came were spicy. I'm not sure if that is intended, but we think cayenne was sprinkled on top instead of garlic powder. All in all. The food is pretty average. Even though I liked the meatloaf, everything else was mediocre at best. It is what a diner gives for quality and quantity, but they aren't terrible at least. Nice to have once in a while to change the pace/taste buds perhaps. Worth a try to formulate your own opinions.

    This will be our new brunch spot. The food is a bit better than the other breakfast places here in Oxnard. Also, this is a homegrown business which will definitely get my support. Service is good even during rush hour. I can't wait to try the rest of the dishes.

    Great place, food was delicious, wonderful service and great prices. Breakfast is served all day. They have plenty of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as a great kids menu. We will definitely be back.

    Corned beef and hash....crispy to perfection.

    This place is always crowded for a reason....fantastic food for a fair price. They keep hitting the mark time after time.

THEY HAVE INCREDIBLE FOOD HERE. This place can get busy in the mornings but they have many tables here and usually isn't too long of a wait if you do end up waiting.

    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.

Save yourself the headache and eat somewhere else. -- We were told our wait would be approximately 15 minutes. It ended up being closer to 30. Once seated, things got even worse. We sat for roughly 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging our table and had to flag down two separate employees before we were assigned a server. Despite arriving over an hour before I needed to leave for a scheduled appointment, our food didn't arrive until approximately 11:35 AM. Spending over an hour at breakfast for a simple meal is unreasonable, especially at a resort restaurant where guests often have reservations and activities planned. Unfortunately, the food wasn't worth the wait. The chicken sausage arrived room temperature, and my pancakes were raw in the middle. Not undercooked--raw. After waiting over an hour for breakfast, receiving food that wasn't properly prepared was incredibly disappointing. As if that weren't enough, the restaurant somehow managed to charge our credit card twice while also posting the charge to our room. Resolving the error became an ordeal of phone calls, receipt photos, waiting for managers, and multiple follow-ups. What should have been a simple correction ended up taking a significant amount of our vacation time. The most frustrating part wasn't even the mistakes themselves--it was the lack of urgency in fixing them. Nobody seemed particularly concerned that guests were waiting excessive amounts of time, receiving improperly prepared food, or dealing with billing errors.

The process was super easy and made the wait feel seamless. We were seated on the "outdoor" patio, which was absolutely delightful. It's covered, so it feels like you're inside, but it's still open-air and pup friendly, which we loved. They even have a pup menu and bring out little metal water bowls. Our doggo was living his best life. The menu is large with tons of options. We initially tried using the QR code (which is great because it includes photos), but ultimately asked for a paper menu, sometimes it's just easier to flip through. My husband ordered The California (eggs, bacon, and pancakes). This breakfast also comes with toast and your choice of potatoes. We upgraded to the chili cheese tots, thinking it was just a small upcharge from the standard side, and didn't realize until we got back to the hotel that we were charged $8 for them, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the tots were tasty (just eat them quickly because they cool off fast!). His eggs were cooked perfectly, but the $3.50 upcharge to add blueberries to the pancakes felt steep, and the bacon was mostly fat and a bit overcooked. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with poached eggs, and the eggs were absolutely perfect. The dish was bursting with flavor. My only critique was that the beans were a bit too liquid-heavy, which made the tortilla very soggy, I couldn't finish as much as I would've liked because of that. The Bloody Marys, though? So good. Highly recommend! We both loved them. Our server was pleasant and friendly. Oh and there was a Char Man hot sauce on the table that was EPIC! Overall, we would definitely come back, we'd just try a few different menu items next time... except for the Bloody Marys. Those are a repeat order for sure.
