    A great place to dine near the ocean, my friend and I stayed at my residence near Oxnard beach. Our beach house, this restaurant is right by the beach and we decided to eat here. I wasn't too hungry so Martin just ordered what he wanted. He ordered the cowboy burger combo with fries and a soda. The burger I had a small portion was okay, it was not bad, fries cooked well and tasty. The ambiance was nice, lots of people, service was friendly and relatively nice. The ambiance of the beach nearby is pleasant. A lot of the menu items are found through scanning a QR code in your phone to prevent users from looking at a paper menu. Overall a solid place to eat when hungry.

    Corn beef hash

    Update came back when visiting again with another person this time service was great, wasn't too busy and had parking available. I got the corn beef hash again and this time was way better, maybe last time was just busy or an off day. Anyways it was pretty solid and came out quick.

    Good n hot!

    We love it here! A fantastic mom & pop local community breakfast/lunch spot! Great location, awesome service! And we love their dog friendly patio! Super busy here (as always) and everyone enjoyed their food, I had to send back my breakfast sandwich back for a redo because the cooks burned the bread so bad, squished thin as paper, burned to a crisp and I do not even know how they allowed it to leave the kitchen like that? But our server was a doll and had them remake it for me and it was awesome! I really hate sending food back but this? It needed to be fixed. Anyway I will always highly recommend dining here! Back soon!

    I used to frequent this establishment when I lived in Ventura County. Never had a bad meal. We recently visited the area and took wife there for the 1st time. She ordered avocado toast with eggs and I ordered corn beef hash with poached eggs, and by far one of the best renditions of home made corn beef hash to date. She loved her breakfast, and it's located in a beautiful area by the beach there in Oxnard. Service was great, food was great, what more do you want or need?

    Chili cheese tots.....

    We had a great Valentine's Day brunch at Hollywood Beach Cafe! We joined the Yelp waitlist while walking over from our hotel and ended up waiting only about 25 minutes for a table around 10am, honestly impressive for Valentine's Day. The process was super easy and made the wait feel seamless. We were seated on the "outdoor" patio, which was absolutely delightful. It's covered, so it feels like you're inside, but it's still open-air and pup friendly, which we loved. They even have a pup menu and bring out little metal water bowls. Our doggo was living his best life. The menu is large with tons of options. We initially tried using the QR code (which is great because it includes photos), but ultimately asked for a paper menu, sometimes it's just easier to flip through. My husband ordered The California (eggs, bacon, and pancakes). This breakfast also comes with toast and your choice of potatoes. We upgraded to the chili cheese tots, thinking it was just a small upcharge from the standard side, and didn't realize until we got back to the hotel that we were charged $8 for them, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the tots were tasty (just eat them quickly because they cool off fast!). His eggs were cooked perfectly, but the $3.50 upcharge to add blueberries to the pancakes felt steep, and the bacon was mostly fat and a bit overcooked. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with poached eggs, and the eggs were absolutely perfect. The dish was bursting with flavor. My only critique was that the beans were a bit too liquid-heavy, which made the tortilla very soggy, I couldn't finish as much as I would've liked because of that. The Bloody Marys, though? So good. Highly recommend! We both loved them. Our server was pleasant and friendly. Oh and there was a Char Man hot sauce on the table that was EPIC! Overall, we would definitely come back, we'd just try a few different menu items next time... except for the Bloody Marys. Those are a repeat order for sure.

    Cool wall of customers canines enjoying Hollywood Beach!!

    Just and foremost our server on July 17, 2025 was awesome! The restroom had a line and our server did us the favor of letting my wife use their employee restroom. So HIGH MARKS for that level of customer service. Secondly, they greeted and seated us immediately. The space was a bit cramped, an entire family came in with the plague because they were coughing up a black lung, and it can get loud. We ordered only one thing as I was the only one hungry. I got their Hawaiian Loco Moco "The Crazy Burger". It was a 10 out of 10! A Sweet and Savory flavored comfort food, drenched in rich brown gravy goodness. My son said he will order that next time so that I can order their Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs. I noticed a wall of Beach Dogs. Speaking with one of the personable service assistance, he said that they are customer's dogs. Talk short a fantastic way of connecting with the community. 5 out 5 experience and we will definitely be back.

    Breakfast with a Side of Beach Vibes! We stopped by Hollywood Beach Café for breakfast after a morning walk along the beach from the hotel next door, and honestly, it felt like a reward for waking up early! Atmosphere: This place is charming in the most "coastal California" way. It's bright, beachy, and full of good vibes. There's indoor and patio seating. Food: I had the Smoked Salmon Benedict , and WOW, it hit all the right notes. The portions are generous (but not coma-inducing), and the ingredients tasted fresh. Coffee is Italian, was strong, hot, and refilled often, which is a win in my book. My friend got the huevos rancheros and wouldn't stop talking about it between bites. Tips: Get there early! It fills up fast, especially on weekends. Street parking is nearby and usually easy in the mornings. Great spot for families, couples, or solo breakfast dates with your book. Bottom Line: Whether you're a local or just beach-hopping for the weekend, Hollywood Beach Café is a must-try breakfast stop. Casual, delicious, and close to the sand, it doesn't get more California than that. Would I come back? Absolutely.

    Pancakes with The California
    Miguel A.

    Came here a few times already . Place is delicious! The pancakes were really good . My wife got the breakfast sandwich which she said was really good . My daughter got a plate of egg and she finished it all !

    The service was kind of good. It took an hour and a half to get in and there's a bunch of people after us and they still let them in. If you're friends with the manager, they just let you in and we're dying of heat. And the Wi-Fi is very bad, which they have online menus. And the hostess is really rude throughout the whole sitting process but the food is good my dad's mayonnaise covered only an inch of the PLT. The bacon was not even cooked right and the tomatoes were marinated in Italian dressing and my mom's food was pretty bad and my dad normally makes his plate clean. He did not do that this time. And they added a tip on were bill.

    Came here for a quick breakfast on a Monday morning. The place was busy, but we were seated immediately. The food came out quickly and was delicious. Parking might be difficult, but it's worth it! Definitely bringing our dog with us next time. Your classic, bustling breakfast diner vibes with friendly staff.

    Breakfast sandwich

    One of my local favorites. A great breakfast and lunch joint close to the beach! Very friendly staff and dog friendly. Really quick service

    Half of the Salmon Benedict with addition of avocado (I started eating before I remembered to take a pic)
    Cheryl R.

    It was a hot summer day and I wanted beach air. I'd never been to this establishment, but the location and reviews were good. Tezra was our pleasant and hard-working server. We decided to share the salmon Benedict with the addition of avocado at the suggestion of Tezra. It was outstanding with perfectly poached eggs, fresh spinach and cedar-plank smoked salmon, with plenty of homemade Hollandaise sauce. I just wasn't crazy about the potatoes with peppers. I give this place one whole star just for having a waitlist I can get on prior to arriving.

We ordered the fish and chips and SB smash burger. Honestly, they were pretty disappointing. SB Smash Burger 3/10: The burger was nothing special and didn't even have tomatoes (a standard burger topping in my eyes). It was a whopping 22 DOLLARS! A bit crazy for a totally average burger and some fries in my mind. They didn't even remember to give us any ketchup and we had to go up to the truck and ask for them. The fries were good though and pleasantly crispy. Fish and Chips 2/10: This one had potential but it fell short! At first bite, the batter was pleasantly crispy and the fish was super soft and tender. But, not five minutes later, the bottom of the fish was soggy! The batter was also a bit bitter. (we suspect maybe the beer batter?) If the batter was less bitter and a bit more crispy, we'd give this a much better score. The service at this little spot was honestly not too good. We had to keep asking for things and they didn't even have utensils or napkins readily available. Furthermore, we asked for an extra tar tar sauce (we had three people and they gave us a half filled container of sauce). The person behind the counter said that they were running low on sauce and weren't giving out any more! Seeing as though the original cup of sauce wasn't even filled all the way, it was a bit disappointing. Overall, I don't think i'll come back. Even though the area is super cute and comfortable, the disappointing food and service is reason enough to find a different lunch spot.

We came here to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. We each ordered a cocktail. She got a blueberry margarita and I got a cucumber gin mixed drink. Both were refreshing and delicious. We ended up ordering another round. For appetizers we ordered the crispy maple Brussels and tuna & salmon tartare. The Brussels were fried to perfection and glazed a sweet maple syrup. It also came with thick cuts of bacon. Definitely recommend this. For the tartare, it was also delicious and fresh. It was mixed with avocado and turnip. We thought the turnip would be off putting but it actually meshed well with the flavors. Came with fried wonton chips. For the main course we shared the NY strip and Lobster Malfaldine. The steak was cooked to perfection with a very nice sear and flavored well. Probably one of the better steaks I've ever had. Definitely beats out any steakhouse steak. The Lobster Malfaldine was also absolutely delicious. Most of the time, lobster pasta is usually a bit bland and lacking in lobster. NOT HERE. They included big chunks of lobster and the sauce was so good. Lastly, we ended our dinner with the Strawberry Hand Pie. This is basically a warm strawberry strudel with vanilla bean ice cream. They used locally sourced strawberries and I'm still thinking about it as I'm writing this review. Adrienne was our server and she was very nice and attentive. Since it was my girlfriend's birthday, they comped our dessert. Super nice staff!
