Serenity! If I can use one world to describe Lazy Dog in Oxnard is Serenity! We come here to celebrate the good times. But it is different when you need to escape the chaos and a "bad" day/week. Not only it is the confort food we seek, but it's the atmosphere! Adam, our FAVORITE MANGER, always takes the time to stop by and say hello. We met him as a server and since then he was one of our favorites! Another favorite person is Josiah. His energy is so positive, it turns our frowns upside down and we leave this place feeling like we received the hug we needed for years. He wasn't our server tonight, but he stopped and made us feel like we were family! And I cannot forget Kat and Viktor. Our server was awesome and took care of us. Viktor took his time to check in on us. Please come by Lazy Dog in Oxnard, when you are celebrating something, but more importantly, when you are not having a great day, you will leave feeling embraced! read more

I am not about to stroll into Oxnard and pretend I am some linen-shirted coastal ethnographer with a tote bag full of artisanal certainty. I had never been here before. I was merely a road-battered pilgrim, six hours removed from Oakland, washed ashore near the freeway at the velvet fringe of Ventura County, in that glossy new development called The Collection, where every building looks as though it was approved by a committee whose mission statement was: Let there be ambient lighting and retail optimism. My dinner choices arrived like mildly desperate contestants in a televised pageant. Cheesecake Factory told me the wait would be twenty-five minutes and that they would text me. Reader, I assume that text is now trapped in a ravine somewhere, being nursed back to health by quail. Then there was some steak place whose name dissolved from memory before I finished looking at it. So into Lazy Dog I wandered, hungry, tired, spiritually fragile, and very open to persuasion. And I have to admit: the place has a certain charm. From the back at night, Lazy Dog is weirdly enchanting. The warm lights, the patio glow, the bottles shining through the bar, the whole thing looks like a lodge designed by someone who wanted to seduce exhausted motorists into believing life is still full of promise. Yet the actual entrance is oddly easy to miss. The restaurant is basically playing hard to get. A chain restaurant with mystery. A flirt. A woodland princess in practical shoes. Inside, the vibe is part upscale sports bar, part polished suburban den, part "let's make everyone from picky teenagers to diet-conscious moms to semi-hungover road warriors feel included." Buffalo Wild Wings, but after therapy, better lighting, and a semester abroad. The seating is not what I would call voluptuous. You are not sinking into a cloud of velvet mercy here. But the room is lively, social, and good-humored. It hums in that specific modern way that says yes, you may order tacos, noodles, a burger, or a cocktail with fruit in it, and no one will judge your lack of culinary allegiance. The cocktail situation was fun. I had the raspberry sangria, which tasted less like old-world wine-country sophistication and more like Hawaiian Punch got hired by a vineyard. It was bright, sweet, cheerful, and only slightly ridiculous. A prom queen in a stemmed glass. I did not hate it. I also did not see God. 3/5. Service was reliable, friendly, and sincere, which in today's dead-eyed hospitality landscape feels almost mystical. No fake grandeur, no attitude, no emotional frostbite. Just kind, competent people doing their jobs without making me feel like an interruption in their evening. That deserves respect. The menu is broad enough to make you nervous. Burgers, Italian-ish things, Thai-ish things, tacos, bowls, pizza, noodles, probably a diplomatic treaty if you ask politely. Usually a menu this sprawling suggests culinary panic. But Lazy Dog somehow lands on the right side of chaos. Not transcendent, not revolutionary, but steady in a way that is more useful than many trendier places would like to admit. The fried hard-boiled deviled eggs were the surprise star. In theory, this is the kind of appetizer that sounds like America whispering, "What if we made the picnic more reckless?" In practice: very good. Crispy outside, creamy inside, faintly absurd, and impossible not to admire. 4.5/5. The shrimp tacos were also solid. Bright, fresh, avocado doing its usual California diplomacy, pickled onions bringing color and sass, and the whole plate looking just photogenic enough to make younger foodie civilians feel seen by the algorithm. 4.3/5. The shrimp Thai noodles were decent too. Not an oracle, not a revelation, not the kind of dish that makes monks ring bells in the mountains, but flavorful and more than respectable after a long drive. 3.8/5. That may be Lazy Dog's real strength. It is not trying to be a sacred culinary temple guarded by tattooed sommeliers and fermented foams. It is trying to be open late, fun, dependable, and welcoming enough to make a tired traveler feel the night still has one last good chapter in it. And after six hours in the car, that is not nothing. That is grace with parking. So no, this is not the hidden gastronomic throne of Oxnard. But it is a lively, late-night, good-energy landing pad with charming exterior glow, sincere service, fun drinks, and better food than a cynic might expect. Would I come back? Absolutely. Mostly because Lazy Dog fed me, comforted me, and acknowledged the passage of time, which is more than I can say for Cheesecake Factory. Also, points for being open until midnight, because some places close early as if adulthood itself should have a curfew. Lazy Dog, by contrast, understands the nocturnal needs of the weary, the under-caffeinated, the gossip-prone, and the mildly glamorized freeway drifter still chasing one last decent meal before surrendering to hotel-sheet oblivion. read more

We showed up around 11:30am on a Saturday and were seated right away on the patio. Perfect! Our server was great, food was delicious, and everything was quick! We would definitely come back. It's in a huge shopping center with a Tesla supercharger, target, and more. Perfect stop on a road trip! read more

Great lunch yesterday on our way to do some escape rooms. We've eaten at a Lazy Dog in Fresno before and everyone in the group really enjoyed it so we stopped by this one for a meal. I had the fried chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Chicken was nice and moist, Havarti cheese and IPA mustard made for the perfect combination. The fries were hot and crispy and were the perfect addition to the sandwich. My wife had the veggie enchilada casserole and really liked it. It was a little too spicy for her but she said the flavor was great, everything seemed very fresh as well. It was a great meal and just another reason to stop at any Lazy Dog you come across, great food, great service and very good prices. read more

Consistency generally rules with Lazy Dog Cafe. No matter what town or even what state for that matter LDC is usually consistent in the quantity of their food and level of service. Here in Oxnard they have a nice size outdoor area that you can enjoy when the weather is right. On this visit I went the campfire pot roast which is always a winner. Being Cinco de Mayo I had to wash it down with a Cadillac Margarita with Tajin on the rim. Allgood as I've come to expect with any LDC. I gotta say I do miss the complimentary dog bone breath mints though...An anchor restaurant here at The Collection. Sorry no pics on this one. read more

FOOD: Nothing too grand or special but they did taste great. Portions were perfect and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. I had the korean ribeye bibimbap bowl. The meat was nice and tender and full of flavor. The marinate had a great sweet and spicy taste to it. The veggies were great I just wish there was more seasoning and a splash of sesame oil on it but otherwise still really good and a great crunch to the veggies. Would get it again! SERVICE: The staff were great from the host, server and manager(s). They helped us with bringing down the shade when the sun was out, gave us plenty of time with the menu and refilled our drinks promptly. They kept checking on us as well. I would say the service was quick even when it was getting busy. All our orders were correct and quality was not sacrificed. Had the cocktail sampler as well. Although tasty, I did not taste the alcohol. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing lol but to each their own but delicious nonetheless. AMBIANCE: Plenty of seatings indoors and outdoors. Dog friendly! They have a dog menu available as well. High ceilings and cool inside. Kitchen smell is nonexistent. Clean tables and floor. Great ambiance for date nights, solos or groups. They have a bar area as well. Overall, enjoyed our visit with great service and decent food and drinks! Will come back again. read more

I saw the positive Yelp reviews including one from a Yelper that I know...so I decided to try this place. I was surprised to see that it looks like many a chain restaurant in terms of layout. Very large restaurant. When I entered no one was there to greet me. The host desk had nobody there. I grabbed a menu to look over. Finally someone came to seat me. Luckily, the waitstaff and food were better than the host! I ordered the Korean Ribeye Bibimbap because another Yelper liked it. Glad I did. It was really yummy and there was plenty of food. My food came out promptly and piping hot. I was very happy with my meal and O definitely recommend Lazy Dog Restaurant! read more

Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar - Korean Ribeye Bibimbap* - Comfort Food Near Me - Oxnard, California

This place has the best customer experience I have received since 2 months of trying out new restaurants in Ventura. Victor was my server and he was absolutely amazing! Very welcoming and attentive, always checking in on me with pleasant energy and demeanor. With that said, the pictures of BBQ Ranch Bacon burger called to me and that's exactly what I got when I visited this time. It comes with fries and the amount of food you get for the price is well worth it. The burger that I ordered medium rare was juicy and the bacon had sweet taste to it that really makes the overall taste unique. I do wish I had asked for no pickle and for grilled onions if possible. The one thing that might have really pushed this burger to an even greater level would be if they had grilled the buns to make them crispy. The normal French Fries were also an absolute delight! Perfectly crispy and cut. I would say the expectation of it being a BBQ burger was not as expected though. I had to ask for BBQ sauce to add on even more so I wonder if I should have just gotten the Bison Burger instead and layer on the BBQ sauce on the side. read more

The outdoor patio was very nice and we enjoyed the sparkly lights and music. Our server was pleasant. The Brussels sprouts appetizer was delivered but we had no forks or napkins so we sat several minutes waiting for our server to return. The bibimbap was deliciously spicy and had tender rib eye steak. The sea bass was perfectly cooked and had tasty no-carb cauliflower purée and veggies. The lemony sauce was a nice accompaniment. read more

Really yummy spot in the collection! My friend and I both ordered chicken Parmesan pasta and deviled eggs as an appetizer. The pasta was ok I think both me and my friend both wanted a bit more sauce but other than that it was delicious. More than enough chicken. Flavors were good. And we absolutely adored the deviled eggs we wish there was an option for 6 eggs haha. 4 felt not enough and 8 felt like it too much so we simply wished for more but not a second order. Over all a really Nice lunch in a quiet setting, I really enjoyed it. read more

The food was great , large portions and reasonably priced however the service was poor . The hostess was so mean and rude to me and our server forgot about us and was rude as well .

Adam was our fabulous server! He was super friendly, knowledgeable & funny. Adam 5/5! Keep up the fabulousness... I so appreciate you asking me if I had any allergies. Very few servers ask that. We had a large party of 13 & Adam was definitely on top of things. I noticed some new menu items & will definitely give those a try. There is literally so many items to choose from, that it's always hard to decide what to order. I was surprised I enjoyed my salad. I would get it again, if I'm craving a salad. Actually, I have ordered this a couple times lols!.. Everyone's order looked so good! We inhaled our food & had a good time. So Glad the celebrant enjoyed his birthday dinner with the Fam :D read more

Unfortunately, the server wasn't very attentive when I came in for my regular burger this evening. That's okay, it's not the restaurant's fault. I'll keep coming here; I always make an effort to support local spots, especially while I'm traveling for business. read more

I'm going to give these guys 5 stars not only for the food, ambience but for the excellent customer service and food guarantee they offer. They didn't have a dish the wife was wanting but the waiter offered to him a close comparison and she went with it and loved it. Bison bacon wrapped meat loaf. It was really good. I enjoyed the bacon blue burger while the kids had the basic chicken strips n fries. Really great location and very clean. read more

I've always wanted to bring my dog here so that's exactly what I decided to do today! I decided to take advantage of the Happy Hour menu during my time here. Overall, I was very happy with my experience today. For my dog, we got him a $5 grilled hamburger patty bowl. I was very happy with the price of this. The meal is very simple - a grilled hamburger patty, white rice, and a few vegetables in a bowl. I love that the servers were very kind to my dog and offered him a bowl of water immediately when we were seated as well. My girlfriend and I ordered a few items from Happy Hour menu: $5 onion rings, $8 street corn tots, $8 burger, $9 buffalo wings. This was a pretty good and filling meal for the two of us. Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. I was only mildly disappointed with the wings. I had expected a full serving but I guess the happy hour option only comes with five. It's reasonable, but I just expected a lot more. The quality of the wings were also mediocre. Everything else - we loved. We also ordered two drinks: $8 lemon drop martini and $9 rose aperol spritz. Both were really good. Overall, this was a nice early evening meal for a pretty good deal. Thank you for treating us and our dog with great service. read more

I came in after a graduation ceremony at CSUCI. I came in with a party of 12, we were sat in less than 10 mins which was a big plus. Not only were they super accommodating, professional and very kind people but they had a sweet gesture. First, we had a server who started us with drinks and I believe his name was Conner, he was patient and treated us with respect and kindness. We then got to order with who ended up being our server Trevor. He was also friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The whole experience was great, smooth and the food was 10/10. Trevor was prepared to handle a large party from refills to checking us out, he ended the night by giving me a card signed by all the employees and that made me feel extra special. read more

Good place to hang out. Food is consistently good. I can count on one hand how many things I don't like here (I'm looking at you chicken lettuce wraps), and that's saying something. They have a new sip and share promotion where you can order two glasses of wine and 3 starters for $30. If you order this and an entree salad to share, it will leave you satisfied but not stuffed and just enough room for dessert. Speaking of dessert, make sure to sign up for their eclub and they will give you a free dessert on your birthday. read more

"Poor attention to detail" We were seated quickly, but the service fell apart once the food arrived. My husband specifically ordered a burger with the sauce on the side, but it came out with the sauce already inside the bun. We had to wait far too long to get the mistake fixed, which ruined the timing of our meal. The staff needs better training on paying attention to specific customer instructions. By the time the second order arrived, the burger looked oily and rushed, as if they slapped everything on top of each other. We won't be back. read more

Perfect place to take your dog out for a meal because they offer a dog menu, we chose chicken and rice and a pup cup for dessert for our dog. Plenty of patio seating so you can take your fur babies.

My second time here, party of 9 on a Friday afternoon happy hour. I wish I could link my last review from 7 years ago, because this last experience on Friday May 2, 2026 was the COMPLETE OPPOSITE with regards to service. I had an awful experience 7yrs ago, food took forever, was never asked for refill, waiter was impatient, distracted, and overall did not care (I felt). However, this past Friday, I had the complete opposite. The waiter was VERY warm, friendly, personable, ATTENTIVE. He frequently asked how we were doing, asked if we wanted refills, took our pic, expressed happy birthday to our colleague who was celebrating, took note of our co-workers dog. I have never felt such personalized attention before! I regret I did not note his name (he did introduce himself, but since my prior experience was awful, I did not pay attn). All I know is the server who attended to us was serving the patio this past Friday May 2, 2026 and we were a party of 9 and were there for about 5hrs (celebrating a birthday and a work reunion of sort) We were seated on the patio so it was nice for me. The food was excellent as prior. I know this review is pretty disjointed as I am a little sleep deprived. I just want to emphasize and post how my 2nd experience was EXCEPTIONAL! Kudos to our server who provided EXCELLENT excellent service. read more

We really love this place! We come here 4 to 5 times a month. Everyone is friendly and courteous. We love sitting at the bar on Friday nights. Brandy, Daniel, and Elizabeth are usually bartending. They are really wonderful people! They always say hello and make you feel special! Everyone seems to really love working there, which makes a huge difference with customer service. When people enjoy their jobs and are happy to be here, the feeling is contagious. We really enjoyed each time we come here. Highly recommended! PS: I'm so excited about their new fall menu coming next week! Can't wait to see and try the new items! read more

Our server Tesora is amazing! She is so friendly and so patient with us being indecisive. Also gave us her honest suggestions on what's good and what to avoid. The most impressive part was when a little girl accidentally spilled a glass of water and broke the glass all over the floor. Tesora rushed over and squatted down to the little girl's level to tell the girl it's ok and make her feel better because she was starting to cry. We ordered 10 Jolene's wings (Cajun lime and Nashville hot with Nashville hot dipping sauce and umami dipping sauce). It's on special for $1 per wing. Such a great deal for very meaty deliciously seasoned wings. We also had the Campfire pot roast with gravy on side because I read a review that it was too salty. But it actually wasn't salty and was seasoned very nicely. The meat was a little tougher than I would have liked because they were very lean pieces, but overall I still enjoyed it with the mashed potatoes, carrots and wilted spinach. We also got the Bison burger medium rare with onion rings. The burger came out perfectly cooked to the right temperature. The onions rings were yummy too.

I was pleasantly surprised when my friends suggested we have lunch here a couple weekends ago. It was beautiful weather so we sat outside where there was ample seating and umbrellas. I ordered the peach Bellini but was disappointed. Had much better in the South. Then I had a cup of the tortilla soup. It was not too spicy but just a twinge of hot. I was so full, I asked for my Cuban sandwich to go. Sorry folks, no pic, but it was delicious that night! My friends both ordered a half turkey club sandwich and side salad. They both said it was delicious, as well. I snatched a couple fries and they were perfectly seasoned and cooked. read more

I enjoy coming to Lazy Dog, especially since my usual order is the five-cheese grilled cheese sandwich. Usually, I hate one of the cheeses, which throws the whole sandwich off, but I love every cheese on this sandwich. I've also tried the tomato soup, which is very thick and tastes like it has more spices/flavoring than tomato soups I usually prefer. The orange chicken and rice are delicious, while the Buffalo burger is okay. The drinks are a hit-and-miss here, but I can always find something that makes me happy. The servers are friendly, and I like that they don't have to take your card away to pay your bill. They have a credit card reader they bring to your table. Lazy Dog is one of my go-tos when I want to go out but want something reliable. The food and drinks are consistent, and the service is efficient. read more

Delicious food. Wonderful selection. Dog friendly. Fun atmosphere. Family loves coming here.

Haven't been here in years and I'll probably have to change that. The food selection is great, so many options I'd try. Went with the Korean Ribeye Bibimbap and a smoked maple bacon old fashion. The Korean flavors were there and the bowl was big enough for two meals if you are a light eater. The meat was really tender and flavorful. The old fashion was on the sweeter side and lacked the complexity I like. The bacon itself is smoked and not the old fashion itself. That is a little misleading. The bacon on its own was delicious, could eat many of those. No other garnish, not even an orange peel which is odd. I don't think I would order that again, but didn't regret trying it. Service was great, we had a fast, friendly server. The place is wide open and huge, lots of eclectic things to look at around the restaurant. Funny enough, it's located next to a pet store. Intentional...? read more

Their christmas decor ties the restaurant in very beautifully. We came in on an afternoon that was not too busy and were seated right away. They have so many options from noodles to bowls and burgers. I decided to be optimistic and try their pad thai noodles and they were actually pretty good for them not being from a thai restaurant. The must try will be definitely have to be their cajun fries. They were crispy and paired perfectly with the chipotle ranch. Their rewards program is pretty great too so definitely sign up before heading in. Service was very friendly as well. read more

I'm very sad to say that the service here is just getting worse and worse. We've been here three times in the last month before a movie with over 1 hour 20 mins until showtime and we have never made it out on time due to horrible service. We always have to wait forever but tonight took the cake. Came in around 5:30pm, tons of open tables. Our server seemed annoyed by our presence, even more so when we only ordered one entree. She checked on us once and we never saw her again. We sat for 25 minutes with no check in, no offer of a box, NADA. But I did notice her go to the same two top table THREE TIMES in those 25 minutes that we sat. I tried to flag down several staff and I was repeatedly ignored. Finally our server comes walking past us carrying her Stanley water bottle, STILL ignoring us until we have to ask her to cash out. She literally tried to walk past us and not make eye contact! It was so soooo bizarre. As for the food: The shrimp Alfredo was also a complete JOKE. Tiny bay size shrimp on what looked like store bought pasta sauce and some weird crispy croutons on the side... $25 for that insulting dish! My 5 year old niece could have prepared it better. Lastly, do NOT order DoorDash from them. They always forget main ingredients (like ice cream with the butter cake... TWICE)!!! I used to love coming here but bad service three times so close together? I'll give my money to a non-cooperate restaurant that appreciates it instead. Done with chain restaurants officially! Just terrible. read more

Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar - Look at this glorious chicken pot pie! Great flavor and comfort food vibes! - Comfort Food Near Me - Oxnard, California

We had a really lovely experience dining here on Mother's Day--even with our dog in tow! Despite how busy it was, we were seated promptly on the patio, which was spacious and shaded with plenty of umbrellas. The staff was super accommodating and even let us order a grilled chicken breast just for our pup. They brought out a water bowl too, which was such a thoughtful touch. There was a bit of a gap in service when our waitress went on break, so no one checked in right away after our food arrived. My husband's burger ended up being overcooked, but he still enjoyed the flavor and didn't think it was worth making a fuss over. Still, when our waitress returned and asked how everything was, he casually mentioned it--and she immediately let the manager know. The manager came out personally to apologize and even offered a refund for the burger, which really impressed us. Overall, the customer service was outstanding, and we really appreciated how attentive and kind the whole team was, especially on such a busy holiday. We'll definitely be back! read more

Just shared a black & blue burger with truffle fries. Man, that was one of the better burgers I've had in a while. They split it for us, and they gave us each a substantial portion of fries and double of the garnish a garlic aioli. The truffle fries were actually the best I've had in a long long time. Service was excellent, food was outstanding, and the restaurant is really warm and decorated super well. I'll definitely be back soon for another burger! Oh, and the Guinness, as always, I as a great addition. read more
