A nice relaxed place to have lunch and enjoy the beautiful Ventura weather. Big parking lot and…read moreeasily accessible from Thompson. There were a few diners on a Wednesday afternoon. They seated us at a cozy booth and we ordered a chile verde enchilada with a chicken tamale plus birria taco combo. The refried bean reputation is well deserved. Thick with just enough seasoning. Rice is good but nothing epic. The chips and salsa are served up fresh with the chips just fried and hot. Very very good. You can taste the tartness of the tomatillo in the chile verde which makes a nice contrast to the enchilada sauce which it is smothered in along with the cheese. Tamale also really good. Never had it served with sauce and cheese before. It would have been outstanding without the topping. Birria and consommé were very salty yet without much of a dominant flavor. The taco was also very greasy and I could only finish about half. Would return but skip the birria and ask for less sauce / cheese.

Instead she helped the next person in the door and then fiddled with her paperwork. Almost ten minutes later I got up to fetch menus so we could see about ordering. She tried to shoo me away. Eventually a waitress came by and we got beverages. When she delivered them she said she'd give us time and walked away, ignoring me when I said "ready!" Another ten minutes and we never laid eyes on her again. In our entire time there there were only two other parties and the to-go order that came in behind us. Left some cash on the table and left. HECK with them.

I remember looking forward to every Friday when they had Goat Birria on tap and I would make every effort to show up and enjoy a bowl with fresh tortillas. This last time, I decided to have their menudo instead and that was a big mistake! I should know better because I am an extremely picky eater and I had a feeling before I even tried it that I was going to be disappointed, unfortunately I was right :/ The tortillas also did not taste the same, they were a lot thinner and the flavor was not there.. All in all it was not a good experience and I hope that I just went on an off day. I'm going to try their Birria again once I am on vacation and if it was just a fluke then I'll come back and update.

They offered Cabeza (meat from the head of a pig). So they have that if you are into that. If you are going to this place with someone that doesn't eat pork, they are pretty much going to be limited to eating rice and beans. I ordered a carnitas burrito. They put rice, beans, cilantro, onion and your choice of salsa mild or hot. I chose the mild salsa. I also got a side of chips. The price is hard to beat. We paid $31 for 2 carnitas burritos and 2 sides of chips. They have a salsa bar but they do not provide to-go salsa containers. They provide paper cup dipping cups for dine-in. You can buy their salsas to go but those will cost $4-6. However; they were nice to give us a to-go food box and we piled our paper cup salsas in it to prevent it from spilling. The staff was friendly, quick and they made us huge burritos! It's all I ate for the day because I was so full. The carnitas was top notch! Juicy and flavorful. It was seasoned perfectly; not too salty.

The food appears to be great, we only ordered two items so can't describe many; we ordered a carne asada torta and the three meat tlayuda. The torta was very flavorful and they use good bread, I believe it was a telera. The tlayuda on the other hand had its hits and misses. The meat was pretty flavorful but not the typical cut for this dish, I enjoyed the quesillo (not certain it was authentic quesillo, very finely pulled cheese) and the tostada (large tortilla) with the beans was the true miss, lacked a bit of flavor on its own. The ladies there were very nice, the lady that cooked and served us in particular was very nice and outgoing, very attentive....she made it pleasant. All in all good place but will need a seconds

This lil taco joint rivals the some of best taquerias I've had in Mexico; it's that good and that's no exaggeration. The place is small and quaint but vibrant, the staff was super friendly, and food was simply outrageous. Note: There's a reason why it's called "Tacos el Diablo", as the hot sauces are no joke so be aware when saucing up your tacos (albeit the hot sauces are soooo good). I'm in town this week for work and Vegas odds are 2/1 that we may just eat there everyday this week... TeD is a must stop if visiting the Ventura or Oxnard areas.

We also got a strawberry lemonaid that was tasty and all of this cost me $23 bucks and it was a lot of food. We were stuffed. Overall, we will come back again when in the area.
