    Cockroach was pregnant and dead.
    Amanda S.

    DISGUSTING!!!!! COCKROACH ALERT!!! Went to Mi Pueblo to get food and waited for a while before being seated. it took a while for food but that's normal for this place. got my 7 mares soup.... started to eat the soup... then found a dead pregnant cockroach. wtf. there were three of us who ordered the soup!!! the manager said she's never seen it. how is that possible?! the cockroach was pregnant. this can't be the first time. look at my spoon in the photo! (for reference the spoon is a lot larger than normal soup spoons!)

    Taco Tuesday carnitas, carne asada, shrimp and fish tacos!
    Amanda W.

    I came here on Taco Tuesday on an off eating time at 2:00 pm. A lot of previous reviews discuss that serious wasn't great which wasn't an issue for us because we had a party of 2 and went during the week on off typical dining hours. For Taco Tuesdays they do carne asada, pollo and carnitas tacos for $1.50 and shrimp and fish tacos for $2. All of the tacos are made on homemade tortillas and you can tell by the quality. Honestly for the price for a battered shrimp/ fish taco you can't beat it. I have noticed it's hard to find Taco Tuesday deals in Ventura County and Mi Pueblo does pretty well. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. We also used our Yelp checkin for a free dessert we got the ice cream sundae. All the fixings on the sundae: vanilla ice cream, whip cream, sprinkles, cherry and chocolate sauce.

    Good service and good food every time I come here. The molcajete mixto is my favorite

    Carnitas plate!

    First time here and I was amazed! It was a Friday and they had karaoke! I had the Carnitas plate and OMG it was the best I've ever had! The Mecheladas were in point! The service was great! The ambiance was clean & nice! I am definitely going to return! Especially Fridays!

    My Pueblo is a great, local, family run business! I went there for the first time a few weeks ago and they didn't disappoint. The food was so fresh, the drinks were huge, and the staff are super friendly. I couldn't decide if I wanted fish or shrimp tacos so our waiter, Sal suggested I try one of each. I'm also trying to eat healthy so he recommended I have them grilled instead of fried. It's always nice to have waiters who pay attention and make recommendations/suggestions based on your preferences. I also tried one of their micheladas and it was huge and delicious!

    We have been here twice. This is relatively a new restaurant. It was a pizza parlor before. We are pleased to say that every time we've been here, we've been impressed with good quality food and good service. I recommend you try the jalapeño poppers. It's an open face jalapeño with cream cheese bacon and tomato and onions. Fantastic! My wife ordered the Menudo and she was very pleased with it. My father, hard to please, ordered the carne Asada burrito and he enjoyed it very much as well. I had the salmon, and it tasted fresh to me.

    I live near by and have been wanting to try Mi Pueblo because it's so convenient for me and I love Mexican cuisine. The restaurant was clean and the parking ample but when you walked up to the restaurant there was an overwhelming smell of sewer which is not what you want before you eat. The hostess seated us right away. Our server Robert was very friendly and attentive. He checked on us frequently to make sure everything was ok. He filled out water promptly. He immediately brought us chips and salsa. I wasn't that impressed. It was kind of bland and tasted like tomatoes with not a lot of flavor. There are so many Mexican restaurants to chose from so you really need to impress me with the salsa as that is the first impression. My husband ordered the shrimp cocktail and I ordered the grilled shrimp platter as this is a seafood specialty restaurant. His shrimp cocktail was not anything special. I've had better at order at the window mexican restaurants in Ventura. My grilled shrimp was ok. The shrimp wasn't very big and most of them were not even clean. The rice was ok. Kind of bland like white rice with some flecks of corn. The sautéed vegetables were not very hot and tasted like soap. The potato salad had too many black olives and that overwhelmed the flavor. For the price point I was really expecting something more special. By the reviews some people had a better experience than we did. I don't know if I would go back. There are better seafood based Mexican restaurants.

We had a group of about 12 girls, and they had all of our coffees ready in less than 30 minutes. Every single drink was amazing. I ordered the dulce de leche coffee, which was perfectly sweet and the baristas recommendation. My friend's pistachio latte was honestly one of the best coffee drinks I've ever tasted, and the chaggacino was just as delicious. Not one person in our group had a bad drink. The staff was so kind, especially the sweet Korean gentleman who helped us. He completely turned our mood around after we missed our train. I also loved that they use organic ingredients. If you're ever at the Oxnard train station, stop here. We left with great coffee, a better mood, and a new favorite coffee shop.

My recommendation if you're in the area and looking for breakfast, slide across the street to Pepe's or hit up the Hollywood beach Cafe. I'm sure wait times are less and foods not a disappointment. If the StrandWich is reading this: Fix your process guys. You're slipping and everyone can tell.

My biggest issue is the wait time and the overall organization of getting orders out. Even when it doesn't seem very busy, it can still take a long time. I've even called ahead before and still ended up waiting after arriving. I completely understand that a popular sandwich shop gets busy, but I do think the ordering and pickup system could be improved. Today was especially frustrating. I waited about 45-50 minutes for my order, only to find out my sandwiches had accidentally been given to an older gentleman who had only ordered pickles. He apparently heard me say my name and ended up taking my sandwiches. Mistakes happen, and I'm not mad at anyone personally, but after waiting that long, it was definitely disappointing. My main issue isn't even the mistake itself. It's the amount of time lost. Time is money, but more importantly, time is a resource we can never get back. I basically lost close to an hour because the pickup process wasn't organized enough to make sure the right order went to the right person. I'll absolutely be back because the food is that good. I just hope they can tighten up the system for taking orders and handing them out. Amazing sandwiches, but the delivery and pickup process definitely needs some work.
