    Carne Asada Burrito cut in half
    Robin W.

    Small family run restaurant worth seeking out!! I've heard good things about the Burritos at Jesse's and finally decided tonight was the night to try it. The family behind the cash register and flattop are so friendly and seem to know most of the customers. You can tell the food is made with love judging from the line of people waiting. I ordered 2 burritos to go, one being the Asada burrito because of the rave reviews -did not disappoint! When I got home, I saw how big the burrito was so my hubby and I split it, saving the chicken burrito for tomorrow. The green salsa is bomb and the flavors are so good! Saved Chicken burrito for lunch and cut into it, -check out all the clean meat inside wrapped with rice, beans, onions and cilantro. Just the way I like it! Jesse's is small but an efficient use of space with limited indoor seating. I will definitely recommend and keep on rotation!!

    Carne asada
    Myra C.

    Great soft tacos and burritos. It's a small mom and pop shop in an old downtown Oxnard building. Nothing fancy. You order, sit and eat. For something different try the chicharon taco. It's spicy and seemed to be marinated prior. Pretty good carne asada. The carnitas are ok, the meat a bit too soggy for my liking. Overall, an excellent place to great food.

    "Al Pastor fries", aka Bean fries!
    Pättÿ B.

    Ordered Al Pastor fries, received bean fries. When I received the plate it was very heavy, once I opened it I then saw how many toppings it had on top. After eating up some fries all I tasted was the beans, I moved around the top and found bits of Al Pastor but hardly any. The picture on instagram and the one posted on here as a review show nothing compared to what I received not even close. The beans overpowered any flavor these fries could have had. The green you see is not the guacamole but the green salsa I asked on the side. Would I give them a try again? Probably not, I hate wasting money when I have been disappointed before. For reference on the pic I took I never moved anything around to begin with so this is exactly how I received my plate minus the green salsa I put before eating.

    Got a chill relleno burrito. Ask for no onions and cilantro. It look very unappealing and the chile was cut in pieces with cold cheese

    Best Burritos in Town!....
    Antonio F.

    Honestly I been to a lot of burritos spots, but Jesse's El Taco De Mexico has been consistent with their quality and service. Just a small business and shop but Wow on there Food. Thanks Jesse! See you all soon...

    Asada Burrito
    Gabe C.

    Fast service! Simple! Nothing glitzy or glamorous about this place but it's a classic Mexican restaurant that get never disappoints. Asada burritos + horchata go crazy.

    Asada fries and tacos
    Kristen L.

    Delicious, affordable tacos. Usually when I order chicken it's dried out but their chicken was super moist! Had the asada fries, so unique! There was a long wait so you know that's a good sign!

    Carne asada fries - highly recommend
    Nina R.

    Ah, another hole in the wall spot! These types of places hold so much promise, and I find that they often have the best food. We'd heard that the carne asada fries are the best bet here, so that's what we ordered. They were indeed excellent. A layer of fries topped with asada and cheese and sour cream and guac and pico ... it was heavenly. It was also very rich and very filling, so it took 6 of us to polish it off, but polish it off we did! Lost one star because seating was a bit of a mess and the tables were dirty.

    Great burrito place, I love their breakfast burritos. Quick service but it does get packed.

    Michael C.

    I recently seen a video on their instagram page of someone making a good looking burrito. It was breakfast time so I decided to go try it out. Not gonna lie. The burrito was better than I expected it to be. It comes with chilaquiles, beans and eggs done your way, but I add asada which was an extra charge. I think I found my new breakfast favorite. The service was very good and helpful. The location is small and convenient for pickup or even if you and a friend want to grab a quick bite to eat. The ambiance passes the vibe check. I recommend giving it a go.

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.

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.
