    Herbal tea and side salad
    Terri W.

    The restaurant is amazing, clean and the food was so good all around! The Chaufa (fried rice) was definitely an order again item and we definitely will be coming back! Our waitress was nice and patient with us and we're so glad we decided to have a quick dinner here!

    Chaufa with pork belly
    Brittany C.

    I ordered the chaufa with pork belly. It was really good. I've pork belly was flavorful. The rice also had tomato's and red onions. Overall delicious. Seating: plus size friendly. They have tables and comfortable chairs with no arms.

    Lamb Foreshank

    After picking a random spot, we were not disappointed! The staff is very friendly and seems to work well under the volume of customers. The restaurant was clean and well kept. The lamb was beautifully cooked, with bold flavors, delicious mushrooms and a mashed potato bowl so smooth. My only complaint would be the excessive amount of oil in the bottom of the plate. The steak & eggs were cooked perfectly to order, also with bold flavors. We will definitely be back! 4/5. Will return.

    This place is a hidden GEM!! The food is so, so good and the service is impeccable. It's very clean inside and the vibe is so fun. Family friendly but also a great date night or girl dinner place too! We ordered- steak and eggs, a chicken sandwich, and the salmon toast. We also tried the white sangria and it was DELICIOUS! If you haven't tried this place, you're missing out. Love, love, love Azafran and we will be back for sure!!!

    Had a wonderful lunch today at Azafran. Gabby was our amazing server assisted by Ellie another wonderful individual. The ambiance is chill and positive and the food delicious. We started with drinks and my wife had the Coconut Lemonade and I had the Herbal Tea. We asked Gabby questions about the menu as this was our first time here and we landed on the Sweet Potato soup. It was scrumptious. For our entrees we both had the Chaufa with chicken, another delicious choice. The food, service and ambiance was stellar. We did not have space for dessert but saw many pass by our table and the mango cheesecake looked out of this world. Great lil place. Highly recommended

    Coffee presse with utensils

    You know that happy feeling when leave a restaurant after a wonderful experience? Yes, I found that restaurant right here in Camarillo-- Azafran! Admittedly I was craving steak and eggs, and was curious to know what this Azafran restaurant was all about-- actually my visit was long overdue as I had targeted the restaurant for some weeks to visit -- I wasn't to be disappointed. The drive to the restaurant was easy and parking also, so it kind of sets you up for success when the traffic obstacles are minimized. Upon entering the restaurant you're greeted by a very pleasant floor arrangement with tables nicely spaced, and decorated with utensils, napkins and flowers! The hostess also offered a warm welcome and shared the menu-- even though I had decided probably an hour before what I craved. Even though I wasn't thinking about a pre-meal drink I was also surprised by the coffee offering which was served in a nice press., accompanied by cream and sugar-- enough for 4 servings. The chefs kitchen is close to the seating area although it's out of eye level you can still see them working together to make your food. As you can see from the pictures the steak and eggs are presented in a very clean and enticing manner-- honestly I literally devoured this offering-- who wouldn't! I probably could have consumed a second steak it was that good! One last note, which I found very satisfying and that is there's no rush with the bill here -- you just take your time and savor the moment of the fine food and might I add the equally competitive pricing! Perfect Sunday.

    Steak and Eggs
    Lou H.

    I wasn't sure what to expect when I stopped in to try this place, but I'm glad I finally did. The flavors of the steak and eggs, along with the side sauces that have a slight spice, all had my taste buds celebrating. Even their fresh squeezed orange juice was a perfect pairing for the steak and eggs. My buddy said his ribeye sandwich was amazing too. The place was clean, ambiance was nice and service was friendly. I can't wait to come back and try more menu items. Update: the very next day I came back with the wife. The place was busy, there's only 1 server, but she did a great job in juggling all the tables. This time I true the ribeye sandwich which was another amazing dish. My early valentine date for the Chaufa with chicken which was a cross between a paella and chicken fried rice, also pretty good and a hefty portion. As an appetizer we had pork belly bites which ended up being my favorite. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

    This restaurant is absolutely incredible. I cannot believe it has been open for two years and I live so close. I wish I had discovered it sooner because everything was amazing from start to finish. The dessert, the appetizers, the atmosphere, all of it was perfect. I had the paella and it was outstanding, full of flavor and beautifully prepared. We will definitely be coming back. If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Do not miss this hidden gem.

    Smoked salmon 5/5
    marissa l.

    Second time here and I'm in love! It's such a peaceful yet vibey space . Service is great and food is phenomenal. We ordered: Smoked salmon is a must have! 5/5 Neapolitan 5/5 I dream about this dish it's so good. Calentado 4/5 It was really good just not my fave next to the Neapolitan and salmon. It's light in flavor so I'd suggest have this first . French press Coffee was coffee but in a press! Herbal tea (in a press too) 5/5

    Sangrias and smiles!

    This place was delicious. We stopped in for a late lunch. Enjoyed the sangria, burger, and prosciutto sandwich. The service was excellent! What a little gem of a place.

    Flavor has hit the streets of Old Town Camarillo. A family owned and operated Colombian and Peruvian fusion restaurant is bringing much needed flavor and tradition to downtown Camarillo. All of my friends have ranted and raved about this spot saying they are a must try! With almost a perfect 5 star rating on Yelp this spot has been on my "need to hurry here" list for a hot minute. Azafran has made a name for themselves and are definitely a favorite amongst locals. The menu is intriguing and there is a perfect mixture of classic breakfast dishes and more unique plates. Staff are friendly and welcoming, it's definitely a family friendly restaurant. Here's what we had: Chicharron Sandwich : This was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time! The Chicharrón - pork was extra crispy and flavorful. Perfectly done and I loved the fatty bits. The fresh and pickled veggies gave a lightness to this sandwich and the side spicy mayo aioli-oil drizzle was heavenly. Some papas on the side, this was a filling and delicious dish. I'll be coming back for this again and would HIGHLY recommend. Lox Toast: my friend had a generous portion of Lox Toast which she was super happy with. The portions are generous and the toast also comes with a side of their famous papas or fruit. If you are looking for a more classic breakfast dish here their toasts all sounded fabulous. To drink they have some unique creations. I opted for a Coconut Lemonade which was so refreshing and tasty. My friend had a gorgeous Colombian cold press coffee. We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and it definitely was a delicious meal. The food is a 10/10 and the interior is cozy and warm. The staff were very friendly and the pace is very casual and laid-back. This is the kind of place you go for a slow weekend meal with friends and good conversation. Can't wait to come back soon and please give this local small buisness a try.

    Tres Leches Cake
    Chris S.

    Happened to be in Camarillo today. We decided to try Azafran. First time here. We walked into a very comfortable dining room. It wasn't terribly busy and we were seated immediately. We started with the shrimp taco appetizer. It was very flavorful and you could immediately tell that the shrimp was extremely fresh! I ordered the Pomodoro pasta with Mushroom and Shrimp. My wife asked for the Steak Chaufa. I received the Parpadelle with mushroom and shrimp in. Not exactly what I ordered, but I ate it and loved it. My wife's fried rice with steak was good too. We both could not finish our dishes. They were filling. The topper though was the Trees Leches cake (yes we saved a bit of room for desert). It was moist and had just a touch of sweetness. I prefer it this way, not too sweet. Overall, it was a great find. The server was very nice. The atmosphere was very comfortable. I bookmarked this for a future trip to Camarillo.

    Duck ! The best ever
    Jeanine S.

    This meal was just amazing . We always forget how incredible every meal we have had here is . Tonight we came here and the halibut ceviche it was so fresh . It came with sweet potato smash which seems not right but when you taste this infusion of flavors coconut milk and all the secrets , wow is about all you can say ! The combination of flavors is so unique . I had the duck . That duck was the best I have ever had ! We asked for the owner who is the chef to just say how good it was ! The perfect amount of salt crunch moisture and just the flavors was perfection .i have had duck I make duck ... this duck wins . The service from Elle was good too , she knows the dishes and exactly the region they ate from . The menu offers many options . Something for all but not overwhelming with too many choices . This restaurant is so quaint in our town of Camarillo Thank you

Popped in for a quick bite, then a treat at Mr. Softee, just down the street before hitting the outlets. I knew Hubs would be keen on just a plain hot dog, which he ordered and enjoyed, but said the bread - THE FRESH BAKED BREAD! - is what really elevated it. He wants to return and get a sandwich on THAT BREAD! lol I hadn't seen any photos of salads on Yelp, but let me clarify they are fresh, delicious, yummy, HUUUUGe and fairly priced! Service does, indeed, seem to be handled by a Mama and a Nona. Be patient, speak clearly. I think I talk really fast when I order, so I got a side of oil & a side of vinegar when I had requested ranch dressing. No biggie, just took it back in and they got me the ranch. Inside has A table and 2 chairs, but was a bit warm, so we took advantage of the patio seating with lots of shade, plenty of room and a fresh sea breeze. Perfect for people watching as well! We grabbed a punch card cuz we could easily see ourselves stopping by again to get road trip sammies. I also have an eye on that homemade pistachio baklava.... Cheers! "CC"
