    Horchata with cinnamon

    Carnitas were good, juicy. You can taste how fresh there aguas are. Horchata was bomb . Homemade tortillas were soft and warm . Good prices and great customer service

    Pablo M.

    The food is okay, but this business is living in the Stone Age. It's bad enough to get charged a fee for using a credit payment, it's whole other thing for that fee to based on a percentage of what you buy. So in other words, the more you buy from them, instead of being rewarded for buying more, you are unappreciatively being charged more the more that you buy. This business needs to get with the times. Especially considering how successful it is. To be nickel-and-dimed extra fees is preposterous and discourteous. It is on those principles, that I will not return to this establishment. I dont need to eat there, I have plenty of other food options. They on the other hand, need my business, but have a real funny way of showing it. So I will take my business down the street to Carnitas El Brother, where such shenanigans are nonexistent.

    If you are a Carnitas Foodie, this place is the real deal. The star of the show on the menu is YUMMY Carnitas (best we've had - hands down)) with side dishes of beans, rice, pico de gallo, red and green salsas, large homemade tortillas. Everything was delicious, staff very competent and friendly, they keep the huge lines moving, very clean - they even had a very competent parking attendant in the back directing traffic it was so busy. We have never seen a restaurant so packed. The tacos are huge and delicious. Trust me, you will want to go back for more - enjoy!

    I ordered green tamales and it was so delicious, I'm definitely going back every Thursdays for their tamales. The service was great and the restaurant was so organized and clean. I will definitely be coming again, the food was amazing.

    I always pass by this place on Thursday when I'm in Oxnard for work and been wanting to stop by and try it. Finally I was able try this place and let me tell you I am glad I did this place is great the carnitas are really good. Carnitas were moist juicy with so much great flavor. They gave me a small side of rice and beans I don't know if it's because I came right when they opened but the rice was so good and fresh like it was just made. Another thing I didn't expect was their hand made tortillas really good and big also. I will definitely recommend it.

    Yummiii Carnitas !!!

    Best carnitas I have had. The rice and beans are freshly made. They do add skin etc but if you don't like that you can say meat only.

    Fresh carnitas, good value for your buck. $2.99 taco is almost a meal. There are combos as well. Can order by the pound.

We knew the food was going to be good when we walked in and saw how packed it was. I had a Jamaica to drink and it was refreshing. It was a bit warm that day. I would suggest maybe putting a fan in the back area to get more air flow, but other than that we enjoyed this spot and if ever in the area again I would definitely come back.

I went there for lunch on a weekday, and I was pretty pleased with the service and food. The woman at the counter did speak English so that's always feels more comfortable, especially if you have any special requests. They have an open kitchen where they assemble orders, and the cook was rather friendly. I ordered a roasted pork burrito (I can't remember the name, but it's not carnitas). The meat was tender and tasted like it was slow cooked. The tortilla is not anything special, but all the fillings (rice, beans) were good. There is larger rice than beans ratio, but they give plenty of meat protein. I have been here several times in the past. I remember totally ratchet seating areas, where there were large holes in the floor. There seems to be some updates and the seating area is cleaned up (but I've only done takeout). They now also accept credit cards. For a low cost burrito, this is satisfying. Most burritos are ~ 10.
