Honestly the best asada tacos I've had in Ventura. Their entire staff is so super friendly and fun. My dad and I make it a habit to go there at least once every couple weeks, and they know our orders at this point by heart lol. We don't even have to look at the menu. They also have awesome, huge burritos, totally reasonably priced. I'm actually kind of fantasizing about tacos and a pacifico later today since we're going there in a little over an hour. A++ will be eating again read more

The staff was very nice but the food was disappointing . We ordered and asada burrito and an asada torta. I tried both and they were both lacking flavor. I really hoped this place was going to have really good flavor. The meat was also chewy and tough.... Square cheddar cheese doesn't belong on a Mexican torta! read more

My coworker told me to go to Lalo's if I were to visit Ventura and try their seafood cocktail. I went there for tacos for my wife and daughter. There tacos were disappointing. The carne asada had too much hot sauce for my daughter. She didn't like it. The fish taco had a small piece of fried fish. My wife commented that she has had better. The seafood cocktail was excellent. It was full of mixed seafood including shrimp, octopus and abalone. The small was enough to feed me. My coworker was correct when he told me about the cocktails. You won't go wrong with the cocktails here. read more

Always delicious! Lalo's is a longtime local go to. Chile relleno is outstanding. Everything is good, kinda spendy but quick and dependable!

was listed on Yelp as having a drive-thru, but that turned out not to be true, which was the main reason I came here. I ended up ordering anyway and taking the food to go, but it was overpriced and honestly wasn't all that. Workers were cool and the building was clean and painted nicely. But that's it read more

This place has been my go-to for Mexican food for years now! This review is long overdue for sure! There's another Lalo's in Ventura, but this one is the one on the Ave. I usually place an order over the phone and grab my food to go. Although last time I was there, my family and I decided to eat there because we were heading somewhere else nearby afterwards. They have tables outside, and I never knew they also have tables indoors. We sat down in a booth, and a waitress brought us freshly made chips and salsa while we waited. We ordered a couple of tacos and shrimp cocktails. This place definitely makes the best shrimp cocktails ever! Everything tastes so good and fresh. One thing I really love about Lalo's is that they are always really consistent with their food. Besides their delicious food, they also have soft drinks such as Mexican agua frescas, Jaritos, and Coca-Cola. The service was good. But it's more of a fast-food restaurant, so don't expect to have someone check on you regularly. Their parking is small, but we have almost never had an issue finding a parking spot. Great place to grab delicious Mexican food! read more

I've tried this place quite a lot over the last year and it always seems to be hit and miss. This last time I picked up my burrito, drove it straight home and it was completely busted open. You could tell they destroyed it when they made it, but they wrapped it up anyway. Content coming out the side; small at the bottom and far too wide at the top. And the worst part? My stomach's been bothering me since yesterday and I've been burping it up too. There's just no excuse for this kind of thing, specially if you want $15 for a mediocre, busted burrito. read more

Lalo's - What happened to this place. I picked up a burrito and it was completely busted open. Seriously? - Mexican Near Me - Ventura, California

One of my favorite spots on the Ave, I love their Sunday menudo & breakfast burritos!

It was just okay. We ordered a Chile relleno burrito + carne asada and a steak quesadilla. The carne was definitely salty and I had a LOT of scrambled egg in my burrito, making me wonder if it's a deconstructed relleno. The one at DVs on Telegraph is much better. As for the quesadilla, although the meat was dry, it was very cheesy in a good way. If I were to try this place again, I would try burgers or sandwiches. read more

To be honest to service is great the kids at the window are very polite but I dont know where the lost In translation happens between the order. I ordered food a certain way and it didn't have any onions any beans nor jalapeños even though I asked for extra I can't believe I payed 15 dollars for a torta the looks like it has ham from vons and the cheap one for that matter For the prices thats very disappointing read more

-Truly divine shrimp cocktail! Always flavorful & on point. Small hole in the wall Mexican restaurant on the Avenue. Don't let that fool you, the food is amazing and worth a trip! You can sit inside or outside. On weekends it gets pretty busy. They are known for their seafood. So if you're a fan, you'll enjoy! We reside in Oxnard but make a trip to Ventura because it's THAT GOOD! Great service and quick food. 10/10 highly recommend! read more

11 am I passed Lalos twice. Lost on the Avenue. Since the restaurant is so eye catchy I decided to regroup have a bite and try to find my original destination. I'm so glad I stopped! My husband got the 3 enchiladas plate with rice & beans & I opted for the 3 taquitos. Service was quick got our food in less than 5 minutes. Maybe because of the time. They offer outdoor & indoor seating both very convenient comfortable and inviting. I will be back!! So much on the menu I wanna try! read more

K sad cuz I remember Lalos breakfast burritos to be the BEST. This time not so much :/. I got the breakfast burrito no cheese add beans. Got WAY too many eggs, barely any beans! Really no flavor at all. Salsa's both red and green helped a lot. 5.5/10 (the extra .5 for nostalgia). Would not get again. BUT ON THE OTHER HAND. Chile Relleno burrito SLAPPED. Tender meat and super flavorful 10/10. WOULD 100% get again. read more

First time at Lalo's in Ventura. Smaller menu than the other Lalo's restaurants. I was savoring a chile verde burrito for some time. Lalo's did not disappoint. The chile verde was pretty good. I would have liked a bigger burrito. I'm a big eater. Friendly service. Sat outside on the benches people watching. Overall good Mexican food. Buen provecho read more

The restaurant gets super packed during the lunch rush hour, but they can handle the crowd, super quick with getting the food out. I no matter what you get it's always delicious. I always get a shrimp cocktail with a tostada de ceviche, with a large hibiscus drink. read more

Amazing seafood cocktails! Always so fresh. Weekend mornings it can get pretty busy. I often call in orders

We were looking for a yummy breakfast burrito. This is the place to go to. The service was wonderful. The young woman that took our order was very kind and helpful. We took our food to go and 20 minutes later when we were ready to eat it was still hot and delicious. The coffee was great and fresh. read more

I freakin' love me some Lalo's! Always consistent, big menu, lots of options, very accommodating. Service is quick and food is packaged well. Love the old school set up and that you can eat inside or out. Parking sucks so if you have time constraints, plan accordingly. I've tried lots of things here but the shrimp cocktail is hands down my favorite. The small is 16oz and $16 but worth every penny. It's fresh, light and delicious. Huge, plump shrimp, avocado, cucumber, onion, cilantro and option of chips or crackers. I'm doing keto and this has actually helped me lose weight! I can't wait to grab one again next weekend! read more

Fresh and very delicious! Comfort food for sure!! Chile Verde is bomb!!! Chili cheese fries-estilo Mexicana! The folks at the window and answering calls are always friendly, patient and always greeted with a smile! read more

The food was excellent. Really nothing to complain about it. Just wish it was closer to home.

I've always gave this place a 5 star! When I feel like a big back on Friday I definitely come here

The only Mexican restaurant in Ventura that makes me feel like I'm in LA or San Diego. I love this place. It has everything I love. All types of meat. The choices are great. Service is good. Will always go back to this place! read more

Amazing food and service!! Wow!!! We ordered chile relano with rice and beans sour cream and red sauce!! Thank you Lalo's and my friend for introducing me to a wonderful restaurant great atmosphere friendly service !! read more

I'll always be coming back to Lalos. By this point it's an absolute institution on the Ave. I noticed there wasn't updated menu photos with prices- so I uploaded those. Menu has never changed much. The fish taco was good but I ordered it grilled and the few minutes it took me to get home. It was soggy and fell apart on me :/ I do love how their to-go options are now in brown paper trays instead of the styrofoam and plastic they used to use. The burritos are good and the chicken they use inside is flavorful and Smokey. read more

First time at this location it wasn't bad but nothing special for me really . I barely noticed the potatoes in it and was really looking forward to it too. I'll most likely give it another try some time in the near future to see if this was an off chance fluke . read more

Love stopping at lalo's every time I'm in Ventura . The burritos are always on point. Their menu is huge and guaranteed to have something for everyone. I stopped in for lunch today and they had a nice setup with the outdoor seating during this pandemic. They have plexiglass setup between the patio dining tables for safety and privacy. Today I had my usual burrito which was phenomenal and my coworker had the shrimp cocktail. In the past I've had the taco salad which I highly recommend, but I didn't get this time cause I had a two hour drive home and I didn't want to pass out in a food coma behind the wheel lol. Just be aware parking is kind of a hassle cause the area is small so be sure to get there before the lunch rush to secure a spot . read more

We stopped at Lalo's for the first time. My husband enjoyed the food . They did h Get his order wrong and instead of the rolled taco plate and 1 street taco. He ended up with 2 full meals. The rice was ONO it had a good flaver. I really enjoyed it. Me being vegetarian, I had the grilled cheese... I was disappointed but expected from a Mexican restaurant no butter on the bread, and the cheese was not melted. So, needless to say, I had a cheese sandwich. Don't know if I'll dinne here again. But if I do, I won't get the cheese sandwich. read more

My husband and I come here for the three shrimp taco plate! An absolute must try. We generally take it to-go as we work nearby. We order over the phone and in 15 mins it is ready for pick up. Short wait times. Authentic dish at the right price! The sauce on the shrimp tacos is bomb!! read more
