    Pastrami Sandwich
    Nate E.

    Got the pastrami sandwich. Thick pastrami slices yet tender. Sauerkraut wasn't too salty or overpowering. Overall good portion size yet light. Service was good, expect to wait but it'll be worth it. Ambiance was very relaxed for a Friday, especially noontime but expect guests to get food on the go. Will come back to try more on the menu.

    Pastrami on rye
    Jonas A.

    We arrived at 11 AM to a nearly empty dining room. We ordered a tuna melt, pastrami on rye, famous loaded fries, onion rings, and regular fries. We were told to expect a 20 minute wait for our food, but it took 40 minutes to get our food and our meal was cold!?! The sauerkraut in my pastrami still had the chill from the refrigerator. The fries were undercooked and the famous loaded fries were barely above room temperature. The tuna melt had tuna but no melt. The kitchen was overwhelmed by online orders as they were turning away walk-in customers who being told it would be an hour before they'd get their food. Management needs to better balance takeout volume with the experience of guests sitting in the restaurant. When you're cranking out food that's not representing you well, it's time to step back and rethink what you're doing.

    The place was so cute and I loved all the aesthetics inside ! They featured so many local artists and popular movie references. The burrito portions were huge and I took like a WHILE to finish, splitting it over lunch and breakfast. I really liked how the hashbrowns within the burritos were crunchy. Yet my sausages were soft. The chorizo burrito was flavorful. It is street parking so make sure you come in a little early if you want to find good parking. Overall, I would definitely go there again. Not just is the food good but it's a really pretty place around by water and the community seems very hospitable.

    Breakfast croissant sandwich

    We ordered over the phone on Saturday for pick up and they have a few spots saved for pick up because the space/parking lot is small. We ordered 2 breakfast burritos and a croissant bacon & egg sandwich. Pick up was easy, quick, and friendly. The place has a great beach shack vibe. The food was so so so good! I'm so jealous because I'm from out of town and would love this place in my hometown!!! The breakfast sandwich was hot, big, and so filling. Same with the burritos. They are big enough to share or save half for later. I'll be back every time I'm in Oxnard!!

    So the girlies and I were in need of some serious sustenance after working out yesterday. We wanted something nearby the beach, causal and tasty. As always, found this spot with the help of Yelp. The Strandwich is a badass little hole in the wall sandwich spot and their breakfast menu is absolutely elite! Breakfast sandwiches and burritos with all of the fixings and so many protein options. You order at the counter and then find a seat. Fair warning, this place is small and cozy, so get here early if you want to find a table. Our order was whipped up by a couple of baddies and they brought the food over to our table. I'm a sucker for anything Lychee so started with their Lychee Hawaiian juice and it was the much needed sugar rush I needed after our 5k race. We ordered up a couple of breakfast croissants and breakfast burritos and let me tell you, THEY WERE BOMB! * My bacon, egg, and cheese croissant was a 10/10. It absolutely hit. Loaded with bacon and the perfect over medium egg. The croissant was light and fluffy. The perfect breakfast. If you love sandwiches and want to eat in a little punk rock meets beachy oasis, then this spot is 100% for you. Can't recommend them enough.

    The Strandwich has some of the best sandwiches that I've ever had! Let's start with the Fireman Mike. Tender brisket with a little bit of fat on delicious sourdough with cheese, with some added jalapeno poppers for kick. This sandwich is an easy 12/10. Every bite was delicious. Next, the Vaquero which is also brisket but burger style with chorizo and jalapeños poppers is delicious as well. The burger fixings like pickles and onion gave this one a different feel, and the strand sauce was so good. I'd have to say an 11 or 12/10 for this one as well, but I'd give the slight edge to the Fireman Mike. The regular brisket sandwich is good as well, but I definitely prefer the fireman Mike. The toasted sourdough is my preference over the hoagie roll. I'll give the brisket sammy an 8/10. The roll was nice and buttered but it needs something else on it to take it over the top. All in all the Strandwich is one of the best places to grab food in the whole 805. I'll be back to try much more of the menu, I have my eye on the Tri Tip cheesesteak, the burger, and of course more Fireman Mikes! The service is excellent as well with very nice people working here. I like the outdoor seating options also to enjoy lunch on a nice day. Would recommend to anyone!

    This surfer's hideaway is located near the Silver Strand Beach. It's a great place to stop by and grab some delicious food, before/after taking a walk or surfing on the beach. There aren't many shops around this beach, so having a place like this here is nice. I liked the interior, which had a beachy vibe. There are a few tables inside, and there is outside seating. The service was friendly and excellent, and the price was reasonable. I tried a chicken BLT sandwich and that was good. The chicken was crispy but not dry. It came with a small package of chips. There is a parking in front of the restaurant and a wheelchair parking space, but you can park a car on the street.

    What a neat place! The menu is amazing! They even have gluten-free bread in the freezer, for those of us who need it. My eggs were cooked perfectly. The bacon was delicious. Tater tots are a safe & funoption!! Paul was friendly and I loved being able to watch the Seabees flow in and out while I ate. Will absolutely be back!

    Bacon burrito, yum!

I parked in the lot intending to walk next door first and then come back to Buddy Burgers for lunch. A man in the parking lot approached me and told me I couldn't park there. I initially thought it was because I had parked near where he was washing a car, so I moved to the other side of the lot. He approached me again and told me I couldn't park there because the parking was for customers only. The problem is that I was going to be a customer. Instead of asking whether I was eating there or politely explaining their parking policy, I was confronted twice and made to feel unwelcome. I still don't know whether the man was an employee or otherwise associated with the restaurant. I called afterward because I wanted to speak with a supervisor or manager and give the business an opportunity to address what happened before leaving a review. I was told there wasn't a supervisor or manager on shift and that there isn't one who works there. The interaction on the phone also came across as dismissive rather than an attempt to understand what happened. I liked this place enough to eat here Monday and planned on spending my money here again today. Instead, I left without eating because of how the situation was handled. That's incredibly disappointing and not how you retain customers. Another thing that confused me was that a car was actively being washed in the restaurant parking lot. At first, I genuinely thought that was why I was being asked to move, so I moved to the other side of the lot. I was then approached again and told I couldn't park there. If the parking lot is supposedly being kept strictly for customers, I'm also confused why cars are being washed there in the first place.

We were immediately welcomed by Juan, and from the start he was incredibly inviting, smiley, and gave off such good vibes. He genuinely made us feel welcomed the second we walked through the door. I'm not sure what his title is because he seemed to do a little bit of everything, but he explained how everything worked, let us know we could sit and come back up to order when we were ready, brought us our food, and even gave some great menu recommendations. He was so kind and attentive throughout the entire experience. The food and beer were also very tasty, and the portions were great too -- definitely worth it. Everything added to the overall experience. Being someone who works in customer service and food service myself, I take good service seriously, and Juan truly went above and beyond. He had an amazing attitude and work ethic, and he's exactly the type of person that brings people back to places. Great service leaves a lasting impression, and he absolutely did that. Loved the experience and will definitely be back!

What we didn't like was having to basically self serve ourselves by having to go to the bar instead of a waiter actually attending us. We didn't mind but this was never told when we first sat down until 20 minutes after no one came to our table. Once we finished eating, there was no room on our table. It took up until us finishing our last drink for someone to pass by our table to pickup our empty glasses and plates What I didn't appreciate was one of the waitresses was upset for not receiving a tip. Unfortunately , no tip was provided due to the Lack of interest service we received. We work hard for us to not be able to enjoy one night without having to try to be guilt tripped for not providing a tip. Rent , food , and everything else is expensive already as is. I also deliver food as part of another side job and not even I have expectation of a tip. I let the waitress know that it's not mandatory to provide a tip especially with the lack of service we received.

We came here to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. We each ordered a cocktail. She got a blueberry margarita and I got a cucumber gin mixed drink. Both were refreshing and delicious. We ended up ordering another round. For appetizers we ordered the crispy maple Brussels and tuna & salmon tartare. The Brussels were fried to perfection and glazed a sweet maple syrup. It also came with thick cuts of bacon. Definitely recommend this. For the tartare, it was also delicious and fresh. It was mixed with avocado and turnip. We thought the turnip would be off putting but it actually meshed well with the flavors. Came with fried wonton chips. For the main course we shared the NY strip and Lobster Malfaldine. The steak was cooked to perfection with a very nice sear and flavored well. Probably one of the better steaks I've ever had. Definitely beats out any steakhouse steak. The Lobster Malfaldine was also absolutely delicious. Most of the time, lobster pasta is usually a bit bland and lacking in lobster. NOT HERE. They included big chunks of lobster and the sauce was so good. Lastly, we ended our dinner with the Strawberry Hand Pie. This is basically a warm strawberry strudel with vanilla bean ice cream. They used locally sourced strawberries and I'm still thinking about it as I'm writing this review. Adrienne was our server and she was very nice and attentive. Since it was my girlfriend's birthday, they comped our dessert. Super nice staff!

Food often comes out not at the same time so some items are cold while others just arrived (again poor training). At that price point everything should be on point!
