Impressed! Home style feel, portions are more than adequate for a hearty breakfast. The omelette was decent but the Chilaquiles with the homemade refried beans, delicious with a nice spicy kick too! I added a side biscuit and gravy just to try. The gravy is peppery and better than average but the biscuit was fluffy big and top notch. This is a very busy big place but we were seated within 5 minutes on a Sunday morning. We maybe at times got a little forgotten about but if you're not on a time crunch with good company, who cares. Quick notes: Bottomless coffee for $1. Tax looked like it was included in the menu price o Overall: Big scores for keeping it simple and getting staple breakfast entrees right! We are happy to return. read more

BG's Cafe - Tax included on menu price, neato! Bottomless coffee for $1! I'm loving the old school keep it simple attitude. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oxnard, California

BG's is a delicious spot for a family morning breakfast. I was introduced to this place through my sister and now we keep coming back. They have the best breakfast chilaquiles with just the right spice! They're even vegetarian friendly! The pancakes and French toast have an orange kick to it that is a must try. The service is good and the space is just big enough that I've never had a long wait. read more

The huevos rancheros deluxe is so freaking delicious! If you're not sure what to order, order this you won't be disappointed!

I've been here other times and I'm not gonna lie. The food is good. The 2-star rating is due to the poor customer service. My family and I waited about 15 minutes without being greeted, handed a menu or even glanced at. The restaurant was busy but not so busy that a hello have been shared. The waitress stopped by the table next to us no less than 4 times before we got up and left. To be honest, there's too many breakfast spots in the area to sacrifice for service. read more

The menu was filled with lots of options, which made it compelling to check out. However, it wasn't any different than Tomas down the street. The food was okay, big portions but nothing too authentic or flavorful. Plenty of other spots I'd go before coming back and giving it another shot. read more

I enjoyed the breakfast enchiladas with home fries as well as the Philly Cheese Steak with sweet potato fries. I ate both orders myself for lunch , though I have a big appetite. read more

Food is great, the staff is kind and attentive. The homemade salsa is fantastic... You can even buy it to enjoy at home. And the location can't be beat! Always enjoyable and filling. read more

They have great breakfasts here. The food is quite good and the prices are very reasonable. The only downside is that at peak times they often get quite crowded (deservably so) and you might have to wait for a table. The service can also sometimes be slow. However, you won't go wrong if you decide to eat here. read more

I love this place! Incredible variety of food, good portions and friendly service. Try the BG's Salad, the Tri-tip Sandwich or anything on the breakfast menu. The Mexican food is also outstanding and authentic. My favorite restaurant when visiting relatives in Oxnard is BG's Cafe! read more

BEST. CUSTOMER. SERVICE. EVER!!! The friendly staff are at the door greeting you with a smile. They truly make you feel like family and take the time to learn your name and orders - which is amazing considering we're all in masks and taking orders on the phone!! Any time I ask for something like a different cheese/specific order they are honest with what they can and can't do. I love this place!! read more

Tri tip was the bomb good pricing healthy portion clean and friendly like I like it.. breakfast out of this world love it

Wish I could give no stars. Gave this place many chances and they fail me everytime... this last time was the last. Ordered curbside, got there, call and girl says I have to go inside to pick up. We order curbside for many reasons so why offer it if you're not going to follow it? I'd understand if it was busy but it was literally dead... girl was just being lazy. It's okay, that wasn't the main issue... picked up my order, and I immediately got an attitude... still not the main issue, they forgot to give me an item which I then went back for and asked politely for.. her answer... "well did you check the bag?" .... LMAO omg, why didn't I think of checking the bag???? Like hello, genius? Of course I did lol they need to work on their customer service or hire someone who will do a good job. read more

Great menu, pancakes are amazing! They have like an orange vanilla flavor to them. Service is always great.

My favorite breakfast place in Oxnard. The chilaquiles are amazing. Love the endless coffee service here as well!

BG's is officially my favorite place in the entire United States. Food is just perfect. I just had a chile relleno omelette, and it is 10/10. Their staff is very professional and friendly. read more

Was a good breakfast, had eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast. Not sure what coffee they have, but it has a sweetness to it when drinking black.

Delicious food, kind of long wait but it was worth it because the pancakes are delicious and their bacon is delicious

AWSOME service. Food is delicious. Hamburger is made fresh. I love it. Take out now. Bread pudding is to die for

I've been here twice. The main reason this place doesn't have a 5 star yelp rating is because of their slow service. (If you want faster service, try seating near the main area so you can flag them down. If you sit far away, you'll get extra slow service) The food is excellent! The chilaquiles are some of the best I've had, and I usually order these when i go to Mexico. The hash browns are crispy and cooked all the way through. The potatoes are always cooked through perfectly (which is rare for breakfast places). The pancakes are pretty good and the eggs are cooked well. Ask for extra salsa bc theirs is homemade and tastes amazing on eggs. Their biscuits are great and their country gravy appears homemade and tastes great as well. Try their sausages, they're amazing and cooked to perfection. I do admittedly stay here at least a half hour longer than I'd like, but come with ppl you don't mind talking to lol. I rarely rate places based on service, as all I care about is the food. To those who rightfully get angry with slow service, sit closer to the waiters and don't be afraid to ask for things that you want. This place rocks of you have time to relax and eat a longer breakfast with friends you enjoy hanging out with. The chilaquiles are a must try here! read more

I love Turkey Burgers, this place has a very delicious Turkey burger! All the items on the menu are definitely worth a try as well! To go or sit in, you must try when you're in down town! read more

AH-MAZING!!!! Saira was wonderful. The food was phenomenal. The corned beef had was the perfect ratio of meat to plates and moist, not dry. Buttermilk biscuits were great especially with the gravy. The French toast was delicious. The deluxe huevos shouldn't be missed. The chorizo hash was yummy. The salsa can't be beat as the awards show. We highly recommend BGs! read more

Bring your appetite! This is down home cooking and large servings. And great waitresses. My favorite is their fresh blueberry pancakes and bacon for breakfast and second is their french toast. This seems to be the spot for all the locals and it's always packed, so you know it's good. read more

I have been here a few time. Everything I have try is good. I just had chorizo , egg and potatoes. Delicious!!! The salsa is not spicy but is tasty . I know the food takes a little to come out but I think it is because they make it as you request it. I am ok with waiting a little bit it is going to be as good as it is. read more

Chilaquiles and Eggs ($8.50) is crispy tortilla strips tossed with onion and tomato, topped with red salsa and cheese, served with sour cream and your choice of either home fries, hash browns, refried beans, sliced tomatoes, cottage cheese, or fresh fruit. It also comes with your choice of toast, English muffin, buttermilk biscuit, or tortillas. These are one of the best chilaquiles you'll ever have. Since they use their award-winning salsa, the tortilla strips absorb the flavors of the tomatoes, onions, and spices. It has a slightly spicy kick but is not overwhelming. The sour cream adds a creamy cooling quality to finish it off. Rating: 4.5/5 One Biscuit and Country Gravy ($3) is really a meal in itself. The homemade buttermilk biscuits are gigante! They are light and fluffy and you can tell that they are freshly baked that morning. The gravy has a great peppery sausage flavor with a creamy texture. Rating: 4.9/5 Avocado Eggs Benedict ($12) is two poached eggs on grilled English muffins with grilled tomatoes, two slices of ham, and topped with creamy hollandaise sauce and sliced avocado. The creamy hollandaise works excellently with the buttery avocado. The thick-sliced ham adds a meaty texture and saltiness to the dish. The perfectly poached eggs have flowing liquid gold yolks and the tomato adds a hint of sweetness. Rating: 4.5/5 Chile Verde Omelet (look for this as a special) is beautifully made with tender pork chunks in a slight spicy chile verde sauce. The cheese is gooey inside and also melted on top. It is a wonderful fusion of an American style omelet with Mexican flavors. Rating: 4.4/5 read more

Our favorite after-church breakfast spot. On our last visit, I went with the nopalitos omelette, which was chock-full of a tasty nopales/tomato/onion mixture. Our friendly server offered to add beans on the side as well, but I declined and just stuck with my giant omelette full of goodies and crispy, not-too-greasy hash browns on the side. (If my grandmother ever figures out the internet and comes across this, she will laugh herself silly at the thought of me eating nopalitos, considering the five-alarm tantrums I'd throw as a kid when faced with anything remotely cactus-y. It may have been because I watched a drunken relative fall rear-end first on top of one at a particularly lively birthday party, and also bore witness to the guy dropping trou to show us all the cactus stickers in his bum. Not especially convincing to an 8-year-old that such an obviously murderous plant could also be something suitably tasty for breakfast. But wow, do I digress. It was a freakin' good omelette, okay? Stop laughing, Nana.) My kids' standard order is toad-in-the-hole, which is a big piece of French toast with a hole cut in it and an egg cooked in the hole. I do this at home too, but it doesn't evoke the impressed squealing that BG's does. If it means my pickies will eat it, I'm totally okay with this. They're also won over every time by the coloring books that come to the table. You can only do so many IHOP word finds on a paper menu, I guess. Hot tea comes to the table in a cute teapot, and my poor husband had to listen to me chirp about the dang teapot all morning long. I'm sure it was scintillating conversation. (It was really cute, though! Bright yellow!) Luckily for him, the food is awesome and keeps me occupied enough to shut my yap for at least few minutes. No wonder he keeps suggesting we go back. Hmmm. read more

Second time here. First time had the French toast combo which was ok. This time I was sad to find out they didn't have waffles, but that's ok because their country eggs Benedict was the bomb!!! They sprinkle sautéed mushrooms on top and it reminded me of the mushrooms my mom makes The hollandaise sauce was really good and make sure to get the home made salsa. We also had biscuits and gravy which were good. The chocolate chip pancakes were good, but felt heavy for me. Best of all, my son picked up the check. I will be back for the Benedict and ask for more mushrooms!! read more

B G's is an Oxnard institution. It's got a real "lived-in" look, just like I like in my diners. Downtown Oxnard is a cute area, with a great little town square, lots of meter-less parking, and new construction standing side by side with businesses that have been in Oxnard for decades. B G's is one of the latter. The food is good, solid diner food. They always serve breakfast. When I was there Monday, I ordered the chicken avocado Swiss melt on sourdough, which was fabulous. I asked for a side salad in order to avoid fries, but was immediately sorry I did, because the sweet potato fries are AWESOME. Our waitress was sweet and attentive, and the food was fast. My little sis ordered an omelet, and I promise you this: next time I go to Oxnard, I will have one of those omelets. It was great! p.s. I love all of the historical Oxnardalia on the walls. Aerial shots of Port Hueneme, Ventura, and Oxnard adorn the walls, along with vintage vegetable labels sporting Oxnard's name proudly with artwork of the surrounding farmlands. read more

My buddy and I are always looking for Sunday morning breakfast stops when we are on a motorcycle ride. We did a search on Yep a few weeks ago and found Bg's. We both had the Chile Verde Omelet and they were great. The service was excellent and the drink refills were right on time. So, Bg's is now on our list of Sunday morning favorite restaurants. We will be back! read more

This is the third time we've eaten here. The food is good and the service is too. I got the pancake combo and my wife got the breakfast burrito. You definitely won't leave this restaurant hungry. All the kids were stuffed! read more

BG's Cafe - The breakfast burrito. It was delicious. We went on a busy day but the service was still good. Very friendly waitress. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oxnard, California

The coffee is not good... Its watered down and flavorless. That being said i only tried the breakfast enchiladas, they were good, the chorizo is made there and it was tasty. Service took long but the staff was attentive and nice. I. Took a cinammon roll home my son and boyfriend loved it! Its Huge! Overall, i would come back and try other items on their menu. read more

My hubby and I love hole in the wall places. This was a great find. Fast friendly service. Huge menu. Daily specials. Food was great! You could tell there were a lot of local regulars. Would definitely come here again. read more

It good. Its not I have to take a pic and post it on social media good. Its a nice change of pace type place. Its homey, nice staff, and a little run down (Cool with me). I ordered my current favorite Corned Beef Hash. It had onion in it, which I've never had seen it that way. (I don't eat onion, but do like the flavor it) They had options for your potatoes, I chose the county potatoes (They looked like scallop potatoes) over the hash browns and potatoes O'brien. Me likey. I will come back, but probably when I'm either close or with friends that enjoy this place. FYI.. My three stars is not bad you guys. read more

The wait can be long. I noticed gnats flying around the table. Bathrooms were clean. Lots of servers who are very kind, but they seem inefficient. We had to ask a few different times for water, we were given just two napkins and when asked for more we received just one. The creamer is non dairy so you need to ask for half and half. I would put up with these things because I loved the food. I want to try everything on the menu.. I went for the cinnamon roll and it DID NOT disappoint. It was just as good or better than Cinnabon. They have unique items on the menu. I ordered the roast beef and green chili sandwich on toasted sourdough. The bread was a bit under toasted and too soft with butter. I would have thought it was perfect if the bread was crunchy. I had fruit on the side. My friend had a medium rare beef patty and eggs. He asked for lightly cooked potatoes and everything was served as per his request. There is someone who constantly serves coffee so you are never with too cold a cup or empty. This is my new breakfast spot! read more

My son and I recently went to BGs for lunch. The restaurant is a cute, little diner with adorable backward running clocks on the wall. We decided on Chorizo omelets, & a healthier side of fruit. When we reçeived our order, I noted the omelets were good size, & were completely delicious! Also, the waitress was very friendly & attentive... We'll be going back again soon! read more

Busy place for a work week day, you can tell this is the spot for the regulars . Reasonable prices. Coffee $ 2.75-3.00 (not sure? Coffee wasn't strong). Food was plentiful. Pancakes ok. The interior is outdated, but works for this area. read more

In town for a wedding, my boyfriend and I stopped in here for breakfast - his favorite meal. Service was quick and very friendly, a welcome change from many of our LA spots where good customer service falls to the wayside. The coffee was delicious, piping hot with low acidity and then the food...OH THE FOOD. I had the homemade chorizo and eggs - did you catch that HOMEMADE! So scrumptious I even saved some for a midday snack. My boyfriend had the nopalito omelette alao divine and country potoates (cubed - they also have sliced) and we shared a warm, buttery, cinnamon bun. It oozed with deliciousness, I didn't think we'd finish it but...it was gone in minutes and I kept scraping the plate hoping for more. Prices on point, hospitality and quality food. A+++++++ in my book. We'll be back! read more
