My family moves away and they still can't get over how great and fresh the meat is at Castillo's! Does not compare to any other carnicería in the county!!! My Sisters/family members that live out of county, come to town freeze meat at my house and take back! We are obsessed with the quality of meat here. They did stop selling raw menudo awhile back. So that we buy elsewhere now :/ Years ago .. they sold cooked menudo, carnitas /burritos but that also stopped. I will continue recommending this place to anyone and everyone :) Happy we have a great carnicería in Oxnard. Will never buy meat or chorizo from a grocery store NOT even close in quality! Customer service is good. Place is clean , though busy at times.

When I walked in I felt like it was like an old fashioned butcher shop, the staff is very warm & welcoming. I bought some pork steaks, marinated chicken breast, jalapeño poppers & also took home some apple sausage. For the quality & everything I bought, I think it's priced very well. I decided to bbq everything I bought & I couldn't have been happier, it was so good, I even had some family over who were complimenting how good, & tender the meat was, & asking were I bought it! Im so excited to go back, maybe next time a trip tip & more chicken breast. Oh I almost forgot don't ever leave without the poppers there delicious.

Saw it neatly nestled off Hueneme Road on the North side- 'pert-near' Perkins Street. So Yesterday (10/26/2017) I went in, not because of any fancy outside sign or Store Front but for quite opposite reasons. Those 'reasons' are for another time & place. As I walked in, I found the "Meat Section" waaaay in the rear right corner of the store. They only have two small 'Vitrinas' refrigeradas side by side (as I recall). The meat choices are very small but the Butcher is very attentive, courteous and eager to please the Customer Anywho- I had decided to make a whole potful of POZOLE for which pork is required. Pozole is a Mexican Iron-Kettle-Stew-Type-Dish, Older than American Pepper Pot Soup. And I just had a feeling Las Playas would have pork meat. They did. I bought a 1 kilo and some delicious, hot chicharrones. As a whole, the store stocks what it can. It's sort of like a Mom & Pop business, Reminds me of that old adage, "Support Your Local Sheriff", so I'm for supporting Local Business most likely than not. If you're near Las Playas, go in and drop off some greenbacks.

Best tacos in town, they got it. A cold one after a long day, yup they got it. But I must say their burritos are the best out there! So huge and full of flavor. For a price that you can't beat. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Can never get enough of the garden market in Santa Paula.

We decided to try a seafood staple in Oxnard during our latest jaunt down south…read more We parked on the street in front but there also was a parking lot right next door. Dinner that weekend was quiet with a couple other tables occupied. The wall showcasing the generations of Otani's in Oxnard was a good read while we waited for our order. A large white board was the menu. Lots of options to pick from. However with the variety we ordered the food was just ok with the grilled snapper and fries being the stand outs. The fried fish seemed a bit too oily, the tempura batter too thick on the vegetables and the clam chowder needed more flavor. Given the years in business, I was hoping for more from the food.

When you are seeking all seafood vibes this is your place, from POKE, sushi, raw seafood, or ceviche options they have them all. Variety of ceviche options and all the needs for your plates from variety of sauces, tostadas and more. Love the creativity in this place! Nothing like it in the area. Pricing is fair enough and suits everyones budget. Large plates can serve up to 3-4 p and smal i would say 2 people. or 4 tostadas. Food is good. Can be somewhat inconsistent. We tried this place when a family member brought some and it was well seasoned and delicious. Now this time I would say there was a lack of flavor and salt was much needed. Unfortunately after ordering a fly flew in the case where it made me second guess. Anyways, I would suggest something for the flies due to fish attracts them. Overall quick service, multiple options, easy to find, plenty of parking.
