    Was following this place on Yelp for a while. Got the asada burrito. The meat had a little too much tendon on it for me. Chips were good. I'll have to try different meat next time. Friendly service. Limited indoor seating.

    After seeing the amazing reviews this Mexican spot had I had to come try it. Unfortunately the food I tried I did not like very much! The flavor was not there for me personally. This is decent Mexican food but if you have had great mexican food I would try another place. I had an al pastor quesadilla and it was very greasy. It is a huge portion but I could not finish it because it was not to my liking. It is nice they offer sour cream and they do have lots of seating. Service was pretty quick as well.

    Carne asada tacos

    Customer service was good, tacos are big portions, good flavor, size able and they give you chips which is nice.

    Super Burrito w/ Carne Asada
    Katie C.

    Great little restaurant with plenty of seats to sit inside or outside and enjoy the meal. First off, the staff were really friendly. Nicely flavored carne asada super burrito, delish in the right ways! Not to mention they offered salsa verde & salsa roja too. Wish the verde had more of a kick to it, felt a little watered down for me. I did like the roja more in terms of flavor. I loved the addition of the avocado & salsa. I enjoyed how they had burrito options w/out rice because I have been trying to cut more carbs out of my diet. Shoutout to the workers prepping the food in the back because they were amazing in delivering my request of sauce, lime, & onions too!

    Super burrito

    I had the super burrito with carne asada and I was not disappointed! The carne asada was phenomenal-- tender, juicy, and rich in flavor. The pinto beans were perfectly cooked and the tortilla was fresh. Add in some guacamole, pico de gallo, cheese and that's it! A shout out to their hot sauce -- the perfect pairing to the burrito. Total was $11 with tax. Last year I would have said that this was overpriced, but everything is more expensive these days and the quality justifies the price. Service was friendly and my burrito was ready in a few minutes. Saving this to my favorites for the next time I'm passing through Camarillo.

    They switched their beef to a cheaper cut. It's gone way down hill. I used to love this place, but cutting corners lost my future business.

The churros were incredible and just about made up for the whole thing. They do charge a little extra to use a credit card and although it's only 3%, it's a little irritating. It's 2026, no one carries cash, and I'm a patron who chose to dine with you over somewhere else. Put $0.50 on something to get rid of the fee at check out. It's not a good look. All-in-all, great experience. We'll be back more often.

Immediately in front of you, is a grocery store with fresh produce, drinks, etc.. There's no real service to speak of. You go in, look at the menu above and behind the register, make your choices and pay the employee at the till. When I went, no one offered to answer any questions or sell me anything. The woman at the counter next to the young man behind the register just watched me while I checked stuff out. On the left between a dark room and the grocery, were large racks of Mexican pastries and breads. I have tried Mexican pastries in the past and have not really enjoyed them. But "hope springs. . ." and all that. So, seeing a decent amount of plump pastries and breads that looked incredibly fresh and enticing, I used the provided tongs and placed a few into a bag (also provided). I'm still thinking about going back for more. They were all moist and flavorful with fillings that were delicately sweetened. So so good. I perused the menu acting as though I hadn't come there for one item only - a breakfast burrito with bacon. I liked the breakfast burrito I had here and would definitely recommend it. It's a full meal capable of holding you for a long time. I would probably want to eat one again before a long day of chores, shopping, or a strenuous hike. I need to feel like I earned the calories. And I wasn't hungry until dinner. Behind the register is a doorway to a whole other experience. The kitchen is safely and sanitarily located behind tall countertops and a refrigerated section. I was excited to see the variety of offerings from south of the border. Are you hankering for a goody you can only get in Mexico, come here and look. You'll probably find it. That dark room I mentioned earlier is a huge dining area with dark iconic furniture that I discovered on my first trip to Mexico many years ago. Black leather and wood barrel shaped chairs with black leather topped round tables scattered around a dark room with black tile floors. There were patrons eating at a couple of the tables who looked like regulars. The size of the dining area made me think it would be a great place for a large gathering. I'm now wondering if they ever have live music and if they would be able to accommodate a large birthday party. There are a couple of picnic tables in the back, off the parking lot, where I ate my meal. I believe the notion of putting tables back there was more like an afterthought because it's not decorated and it's right along the back walkway from parked cars to the restaurant door. It's not regularly attended to, I guess, as there were remnants of another customer's meal at the other table. I also had the thought that it might just be a place for the employees to take a break and eat a meal in peace. Overall, I will be coming back and trying other menu items, baked goods and products from the other room.

The decor is a blast from the past and looks like it did inside when I first stated coming here, so they haven't done much to the place but to me that gives this spot that old school charm. I personally love the old time decor and owls all around the restaurant. I find their booths to be cozy and comfortable. The menu is also pretty large with all of the classic dishes. The staff have always been nice when I've come in. They are attentive, friendly and the food is whipped up quickly. Happy hour menu seems to bring in the crowds but I do think there are other places with a happy hour menu that gives you more bang for your buck than here. The food is average in many ways but very comforting. Probably I'd rate all of the different dishes I've tried between 3.5-4 stars depending what you get. I really love their albondigas soup and that's one of my favs. Never steers me wrong. Also their crunchy shell tacos aren't bad. I came for a beef taco with rice and beans and was pleasantly surprised. This isn't Michelin star food people - just classic no frills Mexican food that seems to have kept them operating all this time, impressive if you ask me. My last pro tip is the margaritas are stellar. Huge fan of their mango marg and I'd come back for this alone. Just at $15 that's a little hefty for a hole in the wall spot like this. Same with the food. Two margs and two simple smaller main plates ran us $70 after tax and tip. Seems like it's hard to get a good deal nowadays but for keeping these local gems open, I'll always do my best to support.
