I love having breakfast at this restaurant. First of all, the service is great and the food is delicious. The price is also relatively reasonable. I especially recommend it for people who like Mexican food. I always order coffee, and of course refills are free. Suitable for couples, families and groups. Good for breakfast and brunch. There isn't much parking in front of the restaurant, but street parking is available nearby. read more

Was passing through the area on my way back home to West LA and had heard amazing things about this little diner so tried it for my first time this past weekend and can say I was honestly really impressed. Service was fantastic, our server was extremely polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast and for a very fair price. I loved how fresh all the ingredients were and the produce was especially delicious. I would call this a local country diner that was absolutely packed when we visited on Saturday morning. They don't have outdoor seating but plenty of indoor options. There's also a large free parking lot attached so finding a space was really easy. They have a very large menu filled with all sorts of classic American and Mexican breakfast options. For this visit, I chose the Chilaquiles Verdes and thought it was really good. I added some of their homemade salsa with it, which was a great combo and I would highly recommend this dish. I also got a biscuit on the side, which was very fluffy and really hit the spot. It's really lively on the inside and had a really great atmosphere so I would highly recommend this place to anyone passing through or to anyone in the area. read more

Come here for a solid, hearty breakfast/brunch. You won't be disappointed! We ordered a large variety of foods all with large portions. Highly recommend the menudo and the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. It's super unique and literally tastes like both a cinnamon roll and a french toast. All the food we ordered was solid. Its good but I wouldn't say it's mind blowing. It's what I needed and met my expectations. I saw some of the tables nearby me order lunch foods including a quesadilla and a huuuuge burger and I really wanna give that a try next time. The service was quite excellent. The server was so attentative. I drink a lot of water lol and she probably refilled my water like 5 times without me asking. Thank you!!! Very much appreciated lol read more

Good spot and closer than we realized! We were at my son's football game craving breakfast burritos and found this place on Yelp. Ordered three to go -- the staff was super friendly, burritos were huge and very good, and the salsa was great too. A bit pricey compared to other breakfast burritos in area but to be honest, you got a bang for your buck bc they were huge ! Not the best we've had, but definitely worth a try as they were still very good! We're excited to come back and try other menu items! read more

OMG. Four words. Chile Verde Breakfast burrito. Ridonkulous. This thing was huge!! (See pic). I ordered a side of their house salsa just because I love it, but I will definitely order an extra side of the chile verde sauce next time only because I want to slather every bite in it. Very friendly service and that's that my order was To-go! I've had dine-in breakfast here and the vibe has always been high. Can't recommend highly enough. read more

If you phone in a order prepare to be hung up on or rudely talked to. If you ask why they hung up on you they will say they don't know Prices are too high for this level of contempt for customers. I will take my business elsewhere and anywhere but here. read more

Visited Oxnard for the weekend and stumbled up on this cozy family style dinner. To my pleasant surprise, they had the best chili Verde and pancakes. Service was immaculate. Our server made sure we were well taken care of. I think it was the owner that also made sure we were all good too. With service and food quality and ambiance, I give this place 5 stars. I recommend this diner to anyone looking for good food and great service. read more

Their name doesn't lie. They truly are The Best for breakfast. We had the pork in Chile verde with sunny side up eggs and wanted to lick the plate but, it would've been unseemly. :D We had to behave with decorum. Delicious breakfast in a warm, diner-style experience-- can't wait to return next time we're in the area. read more

It has a lot of good reviews so we tried it. The vibe is an old diner; even if we were early, the place was already packed. We were seated immediately and given menus. Ordered porkchops, pancakes, forgot the other one. food was flavorful! you cannot go wrong. there's parking outside the building too plus street parking. read more

The Best Breakfast Cafe - Florentine omelette - American Near Me - Oxnard, California

We drove 30 miles in peak morning Hangry to try this place for the first time today. Well worth it!! First of all, you know it's good when you roll up and the lot is full. But we got quickly seated and then launched into the broad menu. Love the Cute family diner feel, all decked out for Xmas Eve Day! We all settled on breakfast. Chilaquiles for hubby, Chili Verde and Eggs for me, Breakfast burrito for sis 1, French Toast platter for sis 2. Hubby eyeballs chilaquiles every time. Here was his take: DELICIOUS, crispy, flavorful. He's full and satisfied. The Bloody Mary helped everything go down smoothly!! Sis 1: she ate the whole dang thing, except for last three bites given to sis 2 when they swapped plates for cross tasting. Two "good" comments on the burrito. Thanks for also providing Cholula. Sis 2: sausage link was nice and plump. Solid French toast plate. Now for Mama.... The Chili Verde was magical, everything I dreamed it would be, and I would order again! Nice warm spice without being too spicy. And Mama Mia, the corn tortillas tasted homemade and they were thick so they didn't crumble when I attempted the bites. We'll be back again--there's a lot on this menu that's calling out to us!! read more

Food and service 10/10 every time! I usually get either the chicken fried steak or chile verde and neither ever misses. I personally do not like menudo but my family always gets that here! read more

Sorry but not the best. Chilaquiles were not that great. Will not be returning ever. The service was fantastic but I didn't go for the service. read more

Delish local place in south! Yummy pancakes! Great family breakfast joint that is very inviting!

"I was disappointed with the service during my visit. Our waiter Fredy seemed distracted i ask for a coffee two times and for some Splenda and he never brought When we asked questions about the menu, the responses felt rushed and unhelpful. Good food loses its appeal when the service doesn't match the quality. I hope the staff receives more training in attentiveness and customer care." It's the second time he attends to me and my experience has not been pleasant. read more

The Best Breakfast Cafe is still around! I guess it's been several years since I've been here... Find them on the corner of Saviers Rd & Pleasant Valley Rd in Oxnard. It was busy when we arrived on a Saturday morning. But we were able to get seated in a couple of minutes. They are open everyday for Breakfast & Lunch between 7am-2pm... Very casual, Family Friendly & Diner Feels... The parking lot can get full, but there's also street parking available. Plenty of options for Breakfast & Lunch. I'm usually here for Breakfast, but the Lunch menu is pretty inviting. I need to try Lunch sometime. Huge portions, which is what we like. The Mister's 1st time here & he devoured his Pancake Combo... I always crave Chilaquiles, but I felt like being somewhat healthy today. So I ordered a Veggie Omelette, lol. Had a generous amount of veggies inside w/ carrots, zucchini, broccoli & cheese. With Omelettes, you get a side choice of potatoes or fruit & toast or a biscuit. The potatoes are good, they were yummy! Of course I ordered an extra side of fruit too. I was happy with my meal & had leftovers :) Overall, It was Good! I was able to save half of my Veggie Omelette & potatoes for the next day. Bellies & Brains left Happy haha. Edith served us today! Thank you Edith & Best Breakfast staff for checking on us. Will definitely return :) read more

First time trying this cafe and they live up to the name. I had an amazing breakfast. I was recommended to try the Chili Verde and Eggs. It comes with tortillas of your choice. It was very tasty and had the perfect amount of spice, but the portions of the meat were pretty skimpy. Overall I had a great experience and the service provided was excellent. The atmosphere was was a good vibe. I'll be looking forward to coming back again to try out the other items on the menu. read more

We were in the area on 10/7 and looking for a breakfast/brunch restaurant. With its fabulous reviews, Yelp brought us here. Restaurant itself is kind of off the beaten path, but there is no reason not to try this place. There was plenty of parking, and the restaurant itself was clean. We were greeted by their friendly staff and taken care of by a very kind young lady(I totally forgot her name)! Here is what we ordered: 5/5- chicken fried steak as phenomenal. Crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. Husband had it with eggs and breakfast potatoes. He also had a side of biscuits and gravy, which was good too. 5/5- chile verde breakfast. This was one of the recommendations made by our server. It's a generous portion of tender pork in green chile with just enough heat to make it delicious and not deadly hot. I had this with eggs over medium and hashbrowns, which were cooked perfectly. It's definitely a must order! Finally- I can't end this review without commenting on their coffee. It was so good! Bold, hot, and a must try to get you going in the morning! read more

The service was good. Best breakfast, no! I ordered two over easy eggs, sausage patty, biscuit and gravy. The sausage patty was from a frozen container, gravy was terrible. Biscuit was hard. My husband's chili verde omelette was ok. We will not be eating here again. read more

Don't like this place, I ordered the chicken fried steak. It was still frozen in the middle and the gravy had zero taste. The waitor was kind of slow but did his job. There better places to eat in Port Hueneme and oxnard read more

I've been here a few time always have great service and the food is excellent. The best egg Benedict.they have a great menu.

Honestly this is a great place to have breakfast they are super attentive and nice always ready to help and as I was sitting here I over heard several people talking to the waitress by first name basis so it seems like a tight community which is lovely. it was a medium ambiance not too loud but not too quiet. I went with a early bird special with a side of hashbrown and a coffee and It was pretty good I really enjoyed my food and the service was excellent if you're in the area I highly recommend checking this place out read more

Terrific spot for a homey feel and a wide variety of breakfast and lunch. Clearly a popular place with lots of people waiting in line. Even though it was crowded we had quick service. Hearty portions! read more

Stopped by here for the first time for brunch. Looked up breakfast places on Yelp and this one had great reviews. Great job Yelp! All of our food was delicious and they have big portions. I ordered the Cancun Omelette which had bacon, green chile, cheese and sour cream inside. It was really good and filling. I asked for hashbrowns and sourdough toast and ordered a full stack of their buttermilk pancakes. Loved all of it! My husband ordered the California Scrambled. I tried a bite and loved it as well. There were so many mushrooms in each bite, so good. There is a parking lot, we both found spots right away. The restuarant was busy when we walked in but we were able to get seated at the counter right away. The vibe is a classic busy diner with the staff looking so happy and all of the customers enjoying their food and chatting. You pay up at the front. I am really glad we tried this place. Being new to Port Hueneme, this was a great kick off to discover where we want to go out to eat on the regular. read more

First thing first... just put your phone down, pick up your keys, and start heading to this fantastic breakfast joint! From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. The vibe? Cozy meets cool diner energy, welcoming, relaxed, and buzzing in the best way. Let's talk coffee: chef's kiss. Not only was it hot and smooth, but our mugs never saw the bottom. The staff kept them filled like it was their mission in life! Our food came out fast, hot, and delicious!! You can tell they've got their kitchen running like a well-oiled (but buttered) machine. Service? Friendly, fast, and full of good energy. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there, both the crew and the customers. Bottom line: if you're craving a breakfast spot that hits all the right notes, delicious food, strong coffee, great service, and good vibes, The Best Breakfast Cafe delivers. Don't sleep on it. (But if you do, they'll still have coffee waiting.) read more

Great Experience! Definitely our new weekend breakfast spot!! Food was so good, super clean restaurant, attentive and quick service! we got here a little after 9am on Sunday and didn't have to wait. By the time we left it was pretty busy. read more

Food is bad, bland, tasteless, bad quality and bad Custumer service. I tried to tell the owner/manager that my food was not made right and he just removed the plate in a very rude way and went away and didn't offer any help to make my experience better. Terrible read more

Wow! I am.so glad we didn't eat at the hotel. We decided to find somewhere other than the hotel for breakfast. We were looking for an independent, family restaurant, and we found it. We are not from the area, but we are in the area from time to time. Everyone was friendly and were greeted with smiles! It didn't take me any time to decide I would have menudo. My wife had the Cancun omelette. And of course, coffee! My menudo lacked a bit in the amount of tripe, but the flavor was very good. We'll be back when we're in the area again. read more

The first time I went here the food was decent and service was likewise. However the last few times I went back the waitress was rushing and not very attentive. When I asked for an iced tea to go, she told me that they stopped providing that kind of service. I've not been back since and don't plan on doing so. read more
