    Carne asada
    Myra C.

    Great soft tacos and burritos. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small mom and pop shop in an old downtown Oxnard building. Nothing fancy. You order, sit and eat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For something different try the chicharon taco. It's spicy and seemed to be marinated prior. Pretty good carne asada. The carnitas are ok, the meat a bit too soggy for my liking. Overall, an excellent place to great food.

    "Al Pastor fries", aka Bean fries!
    Pättÿ B.

    Ordered Al Pastor fries, received bean fries. When I received the plate it was very heavy, once I opened it I then saw how many toppings it had on top. After eating up some fries all I tasted was the beans, I moved around the top and found bits of Al Pastor but hardly any. The picture on instagram and the one posted on here as a review show nothing compared to what I received not even close. The beans overpowered any flavor these fries could have had. The green you see is not the guacamole but the green salsa I asked on the side. Would I give them a try again? Probably not, I hate wasting money when I have been disappointed before. For reference on the pic I took I never moved anything around to begin with so this is exactly how I received my plate minus the green salsa I put before eating.

    Got a chill relleno burrito. Ask for no onions and cilantro. It look very unappealing and the chile was cut in pieces with cold cheese

    Best Burritos in Town!....

    Honestly I been to a lot of burritos spots, but Jesse's El Taco De Mexico has been consistent with their quality and service. Just a small business and shop but Wow on there Food. Thanks Jesse! See you all soon...

    Asada Burrito

    Fast service! Simple! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nothing glitzy or glamorous about this place but it's a classic Mexican restaurant that get never disappoints.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Asada burritos + horchata go crazy.

    Carne asada fries - highly recommend
    Nina R.

    Ah, another hole in the wall spot! These types of places hold so much promise, and I find that they often have the best food. We'd heard that the carne asada fries are the best bet here, so that's what we ordered. They were indeed excellent. A layer of fries topped with asada and cheese and sour cream and guac and pico ... it was heavenly. It was also very rich and very filling, so it took 6 of us to polish it off, but polish it off we did! Lost one star because seating was a bit of a mess and the tables were dirty.

    Asada fries and tacos

    Delicious, affordable tacos. Usually when I order chicken it's dried out but their chicken was super moist! Had the asada fries, so unique! There was a long wait so you know that's a good sign!

    Great burrito place, I love their breakfast burritos. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quick service but it does get packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Michael C.

    I recently seen a video on their instagram page of someone making a good looking burrito. It was breakfast time so I decided to go try it out. Not gonna lie. The burrito was better than I expected it to be. It comes with chilaquiles, beans and eggs done your way, but I add asada which was an extra charge. I think I found my new breakfast favorite. The service was very good and helpful. The location is small and convenient for pickup or even if you and a friend want to grab a quick bite to eat. The ambiance passes the vibe check. I recommend giving it a go.

    Chicken tacos, pork tacos, drink

    The food is great. It's one of the best tacos I have ever tried. Service is good. Ambiance is average. The place is not in the best area

Very friendly waitress greeted us upon entrance upstairs. We ordered to go as we had our little one with us. Food came quickly while only one other customer was present. We ordered Honey Walnut Shrimp, egg drop soup, and the shrimp corn dumplings. We liked the soup the best. Will have to return earlier in the day to and give it another chance.

Authentic Chinese food, Beijing pies, dumplings and more ! It's an old building ... est since 1929 I believe. So old decor , nothing fancy and there are stairs to climb. We had red Mongolian Beef and General tso. Mongolian beef had a lot of veggies but beef was tender. Tso was crunchy. The restaurant was pretty empty . I think a lot of people grab to go because we were the only guests for the longest. The chef came out and didn't speak much English but was so excited to let us know he was happy to cook for us. Free soda if you pay with cash. We had cash and our dishes were about $16 . We left tip. Parking can be difficult.

So when I found Peking Chinese Fast Food I was absolutely delighted , that not only is the food delicious, they also give you a lot of it and for a reasonable price! My favorites are the Orange Chicken & Spicy Chicken with Chow Mein & Fried rice. Oh, & don't forget to get the Cream Cheese Ragoon, there is nothing skimpy about these & paired with the sweet & sour sauce & drizzled with Chile' crisp sauce, chefs kiss! Oh did I mention the chow Mein? The BEST fast food chow Mein ever!! So when you think, oh I live in Ojai , Ventura, Camarillo ... I don't want to drive to Oxnard. Shut that voice off in your head & drive to Oxnard , because believe me your tastebuds & tummy will be thanking you! Family owned & a welcoming atmosphere!
