The food was really delicious, and both the atmosphere and the service were amazing. The quesadillas were especially tasty and honestly surprised us, and the fish and chips were really good too. Everything came out hot and fresh, but the food cooled down pretty quickly while we were eating. PS: The green salsa is my favorite salsa because it complimented the quesadillas quite amazingly. read more

Decent tacos... I was in town for business and got into Ventura late afternoon on a Sunday... PT was highly recommended, so I decided on DD instead of going out because jet lag was setting in. All-in-all... Not bad, but not nearly as good as the 4.5 stars rated on Yelp. Would I order again? Probably, but there are much better local taco joints in Ventura and surrounding areas.

We stumbled upon this quaint taco spot a few years back and have fond memories of that day, so we decided to try and find it again and so happy we did! Though we were doing it for the nostalgia, we were also hungry and ready for some good food. We ordered the surf and turf burrito, a fish taco and a scallop garlic taco. They were all delicious! The fish taco was breaded very lightly and had the perfect crunch with every bite. The scallops were made perfectly (like fine dining level) and the burrito, so so good! Next time we're in the area we'll be sure to stop by again. There's also a 2-hr public parking across the street, perfect for dining in and taking a stroll along the beach after a great meal. Happy eating! read more

The place is super cool. Small cozy but perfect size. Outside seating in front and the neat little area on the side where I sat. World Cup was on and the vibe was awesome. The girl that took my order was super friendly. The problem was the food. Maybe the oil wasn't hot enough because my fish tacos tasted like they were soaked in oil. Same situation with my wife's fish and chips. Pretty disappointing just based on location and vibe. Hope it's and isolated incident. The Mexican Cokes somehow make everything better though! read more

Adding 2025 menu pics. Prices seem to increase almost 1-2 years. This place is a gem, but parking main be the main hindrance. You may or may not be able to easily find a spot if you come for dinner or on the weekends. Will have best chances if you come for weekdays at non lunch rush hours. Pierpont Tacos also has some of the best veggie options for a tacqueria. Really tasty grilled veggies mix, not just beans, lettuce, and tomatoes for veggie option. read more

EXCELLENT FOOD. I don't think I've capitalized my enthusiasm for food via yelp reviews in quite a while, however this place was incredible. I ordered garlic scallop and shrimp tacos and I was floored by how fresh and flavorful everything was. We ordered tacos and a bowl with a variety of protein and the guacamole which was also made to order. Seating is smaller, but this is a close walk to the beach and absolutely the perfect spot to stop at if you want some incredible Mexican food in Ventura! read more

Bait & Switch! Menu advertises a Surf & Turf Burrito with Shrimp + choice of additional meat for $16.00. I've ordered this burrito many times and been charged the menu price. Today they added an additional $2 charge "for shrimp". I was told the owner now requires an additional charge because there are "two meats". What's going on here? read more

What started as just another business day turned into such a fun food find. We were starving, craving something different, and on the way to the beach I spotted this little place tucked in among all the others nearby. My cousin had been here before, but the rest of us were first-timers, so choosing what to order was not easy because honestly, everything sounded good. Thankfully, my cousin told us to try the Parmesan-dusted tacos--and wow, that was the move. They were super crunchy, packed with flavor, and the kind of thing you just keep reaching for. I'd come back for those alone and definitely bring more people with me next time. We also tried the pastor street tacos and the asada nachos, which were tasty, but the Parmesan-dusted tacos were the real standout. Seriously, those are the reason I'll be coming back. It was a amazing day to sit outside enjoying the ocean breeze and sun shinning. read more

I have eaten here a few times and once it was mediocre at best. Last few times the food has been horrible. Fish Taco - soggy batter and absolutely flavorless fish that just appears very old. Crispy beef tacos - almost a rank taste and the meat even appeared gray in color. Assuming this was left over from previous days. Maybe drive just a little to the pier and get fresh and tasty food. read more

Worth the drive from the SCV! We've been here multiple times and it always slaps! We noticed a few new items on the menu. But still pretty simple. Not overwhelming at all. It's a little small. But I like it. Service is great all the time. read more

The tacos here are absolutely delicious! They also have specials going on, excellent prices and generous portions! Located right by the beach, this is the ideal casual spot to grab some food. Service is wonderful, they are very hard-working here and the food was ready quickly.We tried a variety of their tacos and all of them were absolutely delicious! Don't forget to grab some of their homemade salsa to finish it off perfectly. Highly recommended if you are looking for fresh and authentic Mexican food in the area! read more

I didn't know I needed scallop tacos in my life...but consider me obsessed. These scallops were the size of what I expect to get in fine dining restaurants (and never get!). The scallops were cooked perfectly so the texture was amazing. The flavors were all fresh and the green salsa topped everything off with mild spice. Can't wait to go back read more

This was my first time visiting pierpont tacos after wanting to try it for awhile! Right out of the gate: super friendly staff. Very welcoming and patient as it took us a while to decide since everything sounded great. Their green salsas are both so good and I'm pretty picky when it comes to salsa. I ordered the veggie burrito and it was great! I do wish I knew it didn't come with chips as they looked so good.. would have ordered a side. Good to note for next time. Overall, very solid local spot and looking forward to trying the tacos next. read more

Had such a great experience at Pierpont Tacos in Ventura! I went there with my son and everything about it was fantastic. The tacos were absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with Love. But what really stood out was the people. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole visit even better. It's one of those spots that just feels good to be at. Definitely looking forward to coming back! read more

What a GEM near Ventura. I was looking Spey for seafood tacos and found this place on Yelp. When I read that they had scallop tacos, I was sold. Parking is a BEAR, so be prepared to walk. The people at the nearby restaurant are not friendly at all and will watch you to make sure you don't park in their lot. The food here was to die for. The sauces are made in-house and each item is so carefully prepared. My partner and I shared a variety of tacos and EVERYTHING was good. Highly recommend the soft-shell crab and the scallops. Shocked that the scallops were diver size and not bay scallops. Amazing amazing amazing food. Can't wait to revisit. read more

Been wanting to try this place for too long and finally went on a sunny afternoon for lunch! Just what you need, a beachside casual little taco spot. I wanted to try the scallop tacos after seeing so many great reviews about them. I ordered a grilled shrimp taco and a scallop taco, the guy working was so sweet and I told him to put them on whatever tortillas he recommended. We sat outside on the small patio area and food came quickly. Loved the variety of salsas. Must've been a mix-up because my taco came with cheese (requested without) and on a flour tortilla instead of corn, but not the end of the world!! The scallops were good, not amazing, Id love to try something else next time. Shrimp was delicious and perfectly cooked, def my favorite. My partner loved his fried fish tacos. His potato taco was super cheesy and indulgent. Cute spot and would love to come back and try some of the breakfast options! read more

Late review: LOVED their food! Hubby and I were either super hungry or the food was just really good. Ate it so fast, forgot to take a pic. We did a take out. 1. Fish tacos = PERFECT in my opinion. Fish was actually big, worth it for the price. Evenly cooked and battered. Fresh. Dressing and veggies were well proportioned. Every bite was perfect will definitely get again! 2. Chicken, asada and al pastor tacos = seasoned perfectly! Super tasty and yummy. Cooked evenly! Generous with their portions. 3. Fries = crispy and soft at the same time. Super tasty. It hit the spot This is one of the places that we'll definitely go back again despite the almost 2 hr drive read more

I came back and had the Soft shell crab taco, grilled shrimp taco and garlic scallop taco. The soft shell crab and scallop tacos are a definite reorder every time I come back. They are well worth the price. Service was so so this time around. The guy behind the counter was much more friendly the last time I came. Ambiance is still the same as the last time I came. Just a nice casual place to grab some tacos. read more

Fairmont tacos is an extra friendly place with excellent and authentic Mexican food . They have a variety, including several seafood, Mexican options, which I personally appreciate. Fairpoint taco is a friendly place on Seward Avenue close to the beach with some inside and outside seating. They make you feel like you're part of the neighborhood there. read more

There were two people, one was the cook and the other taking orders. The person that took our order was rude and didn't seem interested in taking our order. The person cooking in the back was coughing all over the kitchen and on the food. We asked if they were okay and maybe needed water but we got dismissed. We definitely lost our appetite when the food came knowing that the chef was coughing everywhere. We ended up picking on our food and just tossed it to go somewhere else. I will not be visiting anytime soon. read more

Taco place got great reviews, but didn't care for the food. The papa taco had mushy mash. The fish taco was breaded in some strange breading overall couldn't eat my food and threw it away. When ordering there were no suggestions for add-ons or improvements or changes to what I was ordering no feedback or information. There were only two people so service was slow place was really crowded. read more

Great fish tacos, onion rings and awesome quesadilla! Lots of yummy cheese. Salsas were also very good. We walked from the beach to the shop and took it back to the beach. Friendly workers and a clean restroom. read more

The food was wonderful for the entire group with many different items being tried. Everyone was happy with ages ranging from 11 to 62.

Amazing seafood tacos! We had the calamari, scallop, beer-battered shrimp, Baja fish, and soft shell crab tacos. Seafood was super fresh, fried to perfection (crispy batter, juicy, not oily) and flavors popped. Great value for super quality and large portions. Casual beach vibe. Very nice and friendly staff. If we lived nearby, we would visit all the time. read more

They were so nice to us! Last day of school we went out to lunch. They are one block from the beach, just a few tables, and everything cooked up right then. A basket of warm tortilla chips and four salsas while we waited for our shrimp tacos and fried softshell crab tacos. Delish!!! Mexican recipe coca cola (with cane sugar) in their cooler..... read more

Small spot right next to the beach, looks so pretty and colorful. Family run, amazing service and kind faces. But food was the main star literally came back to eat it again. Recommend the big combo with a little bit of everything and 2 sodas for $35. Will definitely come back! read more

Potato tacos with cheese crunchy shells are delicious! They are topped with salsa & cabbage. They are a bit pricey. If you get the potato tacos with a regular shell they are $4, if you swap the shell to the cheese crunchy shells it's $3 more plus if you use your card to pay there's an additional surcharge. It does add up quickly. But tacos were good. read more

The atmosphere here is what wins. And the food is a bonus. Let's move on. Upon walking in I was greeted immediately. Place was very clean. Staff was attentive and professional. The menu has many options. I tried a few things. Parmesan crusted crunchy tacos. One asada and one pastor. OMG these are absolutely amazing. Meats are marinated to perfection. Produce is fresh. The different type of taco this is really stands out. I will without a doubt be back just for these. Queso taco chicken. BIG taco. Chicken is moist and tender. Seasoned well. Cooked perfectly. If you like cheese and chicken. This one's for you. Chicken quesadilla. Can't go wrong with a simple quesadilla. Nothing to complain about. Overall my experience here was exactly what I was expecting. A very local vibe. But not in a bad way. Everyone was nice. Everybody around the area was chill. Seating options are good. You could definitely Have a large group here in the outside area without an issue. Parking is easy as well. There's a lot right across the street. And of course street parking too.
