This is awesome! Open very early. Have vast selection of foods that you can choose from, whether you want to start your day with just a pan Dulce and a champurrado or coffee, or a burrito or quesadilla, or tamales, whatever you're craving, even tacos, they can make you some! The people are nice and friendly, helpful with ordering too. The inside is a small, you just come inside to order, then go outside and wait till your number is called. Small restaurant, but good enough to get the job done of making whatever it is that you're craving while everywhere else is still closed. Come here and getting your early breakfast satisfied. Perfect for fishing. read more

Came in because it was the only place open early and I enjoyed my experience here. It's a very small storefront with an ordering counter, and you order and stand outside to wait if there's a line and they bring it out to you. There was an ongoing line the whole time we were there. We got an asada burrito, 3 different tamales, chicken quesadilla, pumpkin concha, and donut with blue glaze. Everything was good, the tamales were moist and have a good balance of meat masa, and the donut was different but also really good. The only thing we didn't enjoy was the asada burrito because it was beyond salty. Service was friendly, easy parking. read more

Got this recommendation from a fellow yelper. Glad I went by to check it out. Inside is super small, you walk up to the counter and order what you want. They have such a wide variety of deliciousness they sell. Service was quick and friendly. We walked away with four red tamales, a bag full of bread and a large champurrado. It was super good. Best jelly roll I have ever had. The tamales were flavorful and not too spicy. The Champurrado was creamy, thick and you could taste all the spices. It was very good. I've driven by this place so many times and had no idea this authentic goodness was waiting inside. read more

OMG OMG .. these tamales are legit. So good! I am picky with tamales and don't appreciate the sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and whatnots going on to be put on my tamales. I like to keep mine traditional. Do not .. I repeat .. do not .. mess with centuries of goodness! Although the state my family is from they do add cabbage and queso fresco but none of what I mentioned above. Service is quick . Place is clean and very popular. During the holiday , you'll see a line out the door for the tamales. read more

A couple of years ago, I was craving champurrado on a summer night but couldn't find a bakery or taco truck that served it--until I stumbled upon this place. I was surprised to learn they offer champurrado every day, so I rushed over to try it. I wasn't expecting much, but to my surprise, I was beyond pleased with the taste. I also picked up some pan dulce, and it was fresh and delicious. Years later, I still come back because their baked goods and champurrado are consistently fresh. Five stars for a clean environment, a decent selection of pan dulce, and for serving champurrado every day they're open. read more

Very disappointed in this place. I don't know what happened, but the tamales used to be my absolute favorite! I would drive 20 minutes just to have them for breakfast. I've given them multiple chances to make a comeback, but every time I end up disappointed. The tamales are now about 5% meat and 95% masa. I even opened one up so you can see what I mean. It's really sad because I used to love this place, but I don't think I'll be trying them again. read more

The pastries here were pretty good. I don't recall the names of them, but we ordered 3 and all 3 were good. The tamales were not that good, defintely a skip. read more

To be honest I've never had anything but the food. The burritos and the tamales around the holidays. Everything is really on the spicy hot side. I wish it wasn't so that way I could enjoy my meal. I'll still come back from time to time so see if they toned down the spicy/hot level, but I can only hope. read more

La Mexicanita Bakery in Oxnard is a solid spot, especially if you're craving tamales--they're amazing and definitely the highlight. The bread and cookies are good, though a bit on the pricey side for the portion. You can get a small champurrado for $3.25, but just a heads-up--it's very sweet. I usually dilute mine with milk and it's perfect. Overall, a nice place to stop by, especially for the tamales. read more

This place opens at 4:00 a.m. I go to work at 4:15 so it's perfect for me. The tamales were savory and just the right amount of meat and masa. The service was great and the bread was delicious but conchas were soft and sweet. I would recommend this place to anyone! A plus a plus a plus a plus read more

Horrible experience. They over charge you for extra pieces of bread and pretend they made a mistake . They are rude and very unprofessional. Never coming Back Please pay attention when you pay them read more

Bread is always hard. Almost like if it was a few days old. Location is clean and staff if friendly

I used to frequent this place often because I always bought fresh baked bread. Not now!! The past several times that I've been there,they have been selling stale bread or day old! Very disappointing that they are not letting myself and I'm sure others know that they are going to sell you stale old bread. Many donut shops have lower prices for day old donuts that they are selling and they let you know that is a choice you have. They don't just knowingly sell them as "fresh" just to make money. So I would recommend this Panaderia do the same!! I wish Yelp had an option to NOT leave them any star but unfortunately they don't so I am forced to give them 1 star rating!! read more

I got a Chicharron burrito. Very disappointed it was gross. would not recommend this place.

1st time here... i was craving conchas and I wanted to buy some fresh baked bread. Everything was really good and did taste fresh. The ladies at the counter were friendly and greeted me as I walked in. They were helpful while I was deciding on what to order. I want to go back and try their tamales and more food options. read more

The reason for 1 star is because everyone here is so RUDE the bread and champurrado are good but the costumer service is not it. If these are the owners acting this way clearly yall have issues. read more

Food 1star Vanessa is better Pan dulce 3.5stars better than Vanessas on A st. But not as good as it used to be. Since La Doña retired and hired the baker. She now makes eg elotitos with the anise like la doña did. Before she didn't. My other fav is Sesos pan. It's good here but getting smaller. Still priced on dollar less than Vanessas that bread doesn't have flavor at all. Burrito here is terrible. I shoulda gone to Vanessa's on A str for the burrito. And the ladies should be as fun and hospitable to their female customers as they are to the male customers. I wish I could add the picture of this bean n potato burrito that they gave me when I ordered chorizo con huevo. An OJ, burrito & one pan dulce $21.00. wtf. Never agAIN. SO SAD TO SEE U GO but u gotta go with this happening . Noway not worth it. A str. And El Rio is worth the drive. La mexicana two blocks away. Still better to drive a few miles. read more

This hole in the wall has Fantastic food, great service. Usually a line out the door to place take our order.

This was the worst customer service I've ever experienced. The staff responded to my questions with sarcasm, and my tamale order was delayed far beyond the agreed pickup time. I cannot recommend this bakery. Try La Central Bakery on Meta St. for tamales. read more

Disappointed. It was my first time there and the girl in the front all she was doing was complaining to her coworkers that she had been on register all morning and I even said this is my first time here.. also the two coconut cookies I asked for weren't in my bag when I came home. I probably paid for them, but I didn't get a receipt. I didn't get as much as I wanted because she didn't seem to want to take my order all she kept saying was do you want anything else? Do you want anything else? Not very good customer service complaining in front of customers. read more

although the tamales, burritos, and bakery items are igood, they make it clear that white people are not welcome.

Used to be my go-to spot for tamales for years but the last couple times, they weren't as good and the cheese tamales weren't good at all. The cheese used is different than they or anywhere else I've been usually uses. I wish they didn't switch up ingredients, read more

Excellent Mexican bakery.... Tamales are Awesome.....Great family owned place.... Get there early morning for tamales

Conchas are always soft no matter what time of day, the employees are so kind! I recommend the green Chile tamales too!

My wife just bought a chile verde burrito, which is what they told her it was and it had not one bit of flavor of chile verde. it had nopales , old hard rice , the meat "PORK" was so dry and tuff, and it was $10. this was the most awful , disgusting burrito i have ever eaten. Please just work on your bread and stop skimping in the cream in side of the breads please . And stop making food because it's not good at all. I will never buy food from this place again. I have given this place a second and third chance and that's it never again, because it seems like it's just getting worse and worse. They have stopped cooking with passion. read more

First thing...FYD: Forget Your Diet. This is no place for all that nonsense. :P Seriously. This place has been in business forever. The pastries here are gorgeous, perfectly sweet, flaky, rich, fresh, irresistibly delish and flavorful while balanced. Definitely a mouthful. Don't be intimidated with all the choices in their cases. If money isn't an issue, get one or two of each to try and share with your favorite person. Even if you do so, it's highly doubtful you will make much of a dent in your wallet. Each generously sized pastry is anywhere from $0.50-$1.00 & some change each. Incredible value for authentic Mexican goodies baked throughout the day that tastes just as good as they look. Trust me. Overall, LM Bakery is so worth the drive, bike ride, walk, time, money, energy, day off, inconvenience, effort, gas or any other preconceived sacrifice you have to make to get there. Just go. :) read more

This place sells the best tamales in Ventura county. We drive from simi to come here for their delicious tamales. The masa and meat have just the right portions and not dry at all. It's $29 for a dozen but I think it's well worth the price! read more

Love this place! It's our go-to for pan dulce. Very friendly and efficient service too!

Pastries!!! We got way too much! But it's all good. Favorites: pineapple, custard or apple 'turnover' also have pumpkin but not as tasty. Strawberry coconut pastry. Pastry that tasted like a sugar cookie. Savory included cream cheese ham & jalapeño Small cafe with 1 table. Lots of choices! read more

Would not recommend this place, if I could I would give this place 0 stars, staff is really rude; girl with blonde streaks and a much older lady were giving me attitude. How are you going to give attitude to a customer who doesn't know what they have in stock when it comes to ordering food. I do not work there. If you're not happy working there then they should just look for another job. read more

Super bad service sold me tamales that were old and wrong flavor. Went back for a exchange was called a liar and mistake was on me. Do not recommend this business. The customer service is a joke and they're super rude. read more

Whenever I'm feeling homesick I come here to buy empañadas de piña, conchas & tamales they are amazing. The bread is always delicious. I've ordered tamales de pollo con Chile verde twice both times they have been delicious worth every penny ! Customer service is amazing everytime I talk to them they are always nice & helpful. Will be going back for sure ! read more

Ordered mass a week in advance. Went to pick it up day before Easter and they had no masa. Luckily La Central had enough and it was great.

The menudo here was so very disappointing. It tasted like they bought and sold us canned menudo. What happened to this place? A year ago the menudo was great. Now it's just terrible. read more

I've been coming here for years for tamales and they've always been great. This year they really went out of their way to put almost no meat in their tamales. You can get better tamales at Pollo Loco they were terrible this year. I almost want my money back. read more

I love this little bakery! They make great Mexican pastries and they put enough sugar in for my gringo taste buds. Their pastries are sweeter than 99% of Mexican bakeries I've been to, and taste like they're made with really good ingredients. My husband and I love their coconut macaroons - they taste like they're made with real sugar instead of corn syrup. My other favorite are the Palmier style cookies. I always stop here when I'm in this shopping center. The other thing I love are their prices. VERY inexpensive. I can get a huge bag of cookies for just a few bucks. Actually it might help my diet if they were more expensive... oh well! read more
