    Chicken Enchiladas

    In town for work. This was the closest Mexican Food spot to me. Small parking lot. Plenty of parking. Clean Exterior and Interior. I was immediately greeted. I dined in. My server was in excellent, fast and efficient taking my order. They give you chips and salsa on the house. Chips were great. Salsa was just ok. I ordered the green salsa Enchiladas de Pollo combo. Comes with refried beans and Mexican rice. With a dab of sour cream and guac. Honestly, my meal was solid AF. My server promptly checked in on me. This place is perfect for small to medium sized groups. They had a lot of Seafood plates, but I just wasn't in the mood. I would Absolutely Recommend them!!

    To go Breakfast Burrito
    Jennifer F.

    Wanted a Breakfast Burrito today so we stop here to check it out. This place is now on my brain for breakfast burritos. Options were ham, bacon or chorizo. I tried the bacon breakfast burrito. We got ours to go & each burrito was in it's own bag with chips, red & green salsa & napkins. Great quality tortilla to start off, eggs, cheese, beans, potatoes & your choice of ham, bacon or chorizo. It made a great hardy Breakfast! The red salsa was my favorite being not too spicy but great chipotle flavor. The green salsa didn't smell spicy but it burned! The beans were DELICIOUS! Next time I'm wanting a bean & cheese burrito I'm coming here. I also want to come back for their Nachos. Overall very tasty & definitely coming back.

    Chorizo Breakfast Burrito
    Michael F.

    Stopped in for a breakfast burrito, and I'm glad I did! I ordered the Chorizo Breakfast burrito. The burrito was nice and hearty, packed full of chorizo, potatoes, cheese and beans. The chorizo was not greasy at all and had good flavor. The potatoes gave the burrito depth and fullness. The beans.. wow.. I really enjoyed the flavor and the consistency of the beans, somewhat creamy or mashed. The tortilla itself was thin, yet pliable, and held the burrito very well. The salsa rojo had a chipotle smokiness and tasted great. The salsa Verde was spicy! It didn't smell spicy, just the aroma of tomatillos but surprises you with a spice in your mouth. Overall, a very very good breakfast burrito. Can't wait to return to try some of their other food!

    Love it here always the aqua chilies sauce is the best ! The chips are fresh and the watermelon juice is fire

    Mexican rice

    This is definitely the most amazing authentic Mexican food I've ever had! Been to many restaurants instead the US and Mexico and nothing compares. Garlic shrimp bursting with flavor, fresh salad, tasty beans, and rice the way it should be. These tortillas did not disappoint my goal was to get on the freeway but after tasting this food, I sat here and ate it all I am definitely a foodie and very picky. 18 Wheeler truck parking available across the street just pull up! One more thing they did not skimp on the shrimp in regards to the size or the quantity.

    Burnt fish meat
    Maria P.

    I ordered 3 fish tacos and they where awful. The fish must have died 100 years ago & put behind the freezer. Literately burnt and there was 0 meat left. It's not hard to make fresh fish tacos, a little goes a long way guys. I hate to leave bad reviews but I was so disappointed since my tacos where over 5 bucks. I also ordered a salmon burger that was obviously not fresh either and was just plain embarrassing. I didn't expect it to be a delicacy since it's a Mexican restaurant but man oh man ... I just can't

    SUPER IMPRESSED! Clean-authentic & delicious! I sometimes work in The surrounding areas and I frequent the car wash across the street. I've always eyeballed this Mexican restaurant. Today I decided to go in and order some food to go for my family. I believe the gentleman might've been the manager, he was very kind and attentive and wanted to make sure I understood the menu and explained all the different foods to me. While waiting for my to go order, he offered me chips and salsa and ice water that I had asked for Definitely recommend it! My family enjoyed the food!

    Ordered some tacos to go. Quite possibly the worst I've ever had. The chicken was dry and flavorless. It actually looked like cut chicken from a bag of frozen chicken you can buy at the supermarket. The carnitas was just as bad. It was even drier, as if it was a week old. The other sign it was dry and old, was it was salty. Inedible. I was scared to finish eating them. Go elsewhere. There are plenty of other places nearby.

For over 25 years, this spot has remained a "go to" in the community, and we love seeing these old school treasures continue to thrive. From the moment you walk in, you get those nostalgic, old-school vibes. Loved all of the decor and pictures of fisherman throughout the place. The service here was awesome. Super friendly and welcoming, and the gentleman at the register gave great recommendations. He knew the menu well and was able to help me out with some suggestions. Honestly, the menu is so extensive it was hard to choose, but here's what I went with: Fish & Chips (2 piece plate): 5/5. The batter was light yet perfectly crispy, not overly heavy, and the fish itself was fresh, flaky, and high quality. Paired with a solid tartar sauce, this is a must order dish. The French fries were classic and I loved their coleslaw. Grilled Thresher Shark Plate: 4.5/5. This one was a standout for me given how hard it is to find shark on menus nowadays. I actually grew up eating shark, so this felt super nostalgic. The staff highly recommended it, and I'm so glad I listened. The grilled shark was mild, tender, and full of flavor thanks to their delicious balsamic glaze marinade. If you've ever been curious about trying shark, this is the place to do it. I'll be back again for this soon. Overall, the food was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying and the best part? It doesn't break the bank. Prices were reasonable and portions were generous. Definitely check them out if you haven't already, a great old school restaurant in Oxnard.

REVIEW: First timer here (what.) and it was so good! Quiet, not too busy on the day we went (during the week). I remember in my baby years of Yelp I used to note that a restaurant was "good" if it was busy. Post-shutdown and currently 2026, it's OK to me if it's ghost town inside. :) We ordered the Clam Chowder Bowl and Sweet Potato Fries. GREAT! The chowder had nice flavor and was thick, and the clam pieces were tasty. The bread was warm and soft, so full of flavor. Service was good. Love the vibe inside, too. Love the decor and the entire vibe. As much as I love seafood, I can't wait to go back to try their other menu items. Thank you for a great meal. Highly recommend!

There was no wait, and we stood there for about 10 minutes without being helped. Finally, a waitress came over around 8:05 PM and told us they were closed at 8 and couldn't seat us. That doesn't make sense--if you close at 8, you should still be seating guests before that time, especially when they've been waiting and there's no line. The lack of communication and basic customer service was frustrating and unprofessional. It wasn't about the timing it was about how it was handled. Standing there with no acknowledgment and then being turned away last minute is just bad service. Definitely not the experience we expected.

Everything was amazing -- especially the tacos gobernador. They were packed with so much flavor, and the rice they came with was sooo good. The cóctel de camarón had great flavor as well; we added extra salsa since we love spicy food, and that really took it to the next level. I didn't personally try the mojara since I'm not a big fan, but my mom absolutely loved it. The ceviche was good, though I think it could've used a little more time cooking in the lemon -- still very tasty overall. I would definitely recommend this spot and will for sure be coming back, especially to enjoy the ambience when dining in next time!
