    Ventura local here. This is easily the best Mexican food in Ventura. Sopes, tacos, nachos, birria, horchata. Literally everything I've ever gotten is fire.

    Chili Verde Taco & 2 Al Pastor Tacos

    Super quick and easy experience! We parked, ordered right away, and our food came out fast. The ambiance is really charming, and the back outdoor area is such a hidden gem....quiet, cute, and perfect for enjoying a meal. The food was delicious and super affordable for the portion sizes. The chili verde had a great kick, but the fish tacos totally stole the show. Light, crispy, and full of flavor. Definitely a great spot to sit down and enjoy a tasty, budget-friendly meal. Plenty of parking, though it can be a little tricky to get into the lot during rush hour. Will definitely be back!

    Two chicken tacos... Get the habanero salsa!

    "Tacos El Diablo is hands down my go-to spot for killer carnitas! I can't get enough of their gorditas, sope, and the nachos de carnitas of course-- every bite is packed with flavor. The vibes are chill, the portions are perfect, and it's the kind of place that makes you crave tacos all week long. Highly recommend if you love authentic, delicious Mexican eats!" Make sure you don't offer the quesadilla because, at this location they don't make it "tortilla de mano" its a regular flour tortilla... I was heart-broken about this! Please adjust your menu to reflect this our have the person taking the order say this... $15 for a quesadilla is not worth it... if it's a regular floor tortilla! By the way... I love the sweet girl with the colored eyes she has the best customer service! Thanks for being kind!

    Street tacos

    Must go place if you are in Ventura,CA. One of the best Mexican food i had when i was visiting Ventura. Everything i ordered tasted great. I ordered quesabirrias, street tacos and quesadillas. They all were good portion and reasonable price. Will definitely come here back when i visit Ventura next

    This is a big burrito for 10 dollars, the green chile is bomb to and there nachos are loaded and huge .

    I love the Asada burrito and the fries are loaded. Also don't forget to get the chile especially the green one.

    Best Tacos in Ventura -- Hands Down! Tacos El Diablo is the taco spot in Ventura. I've tried plenty of places, but nothing compares to the flavor and quality here. Their meat is incredibly tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. And don't even get me started on the salsas -- the red and habanero ones are absolutely to die for. Spicy, bold, and packed with flavor that takes everything to the next level. If you're a taco lover, this place is a must. Consistently amazing food and the kind of spot you keep coming back to. Five stars, no question!

    Yellow Sauce is the Habanero one
    Damian S.

    Little hole in a wall, you can easily miss it but if you do, you will miss some good seafood tacos, we had gotten two battered fish and shrimp tacos to keep it light. They were actually pretty big tacos, def worth your buck. Heads up if you get the Habanero Aioli or Habanero chipotle, I forgot what it was called but can't handle spice don't put it on, if you spicy- only a few drops, and love spicy- drench it. I forgot to taste it and poured it, mouth was burninglol

    2 fish tacos and 1 Asada taco

    Was traveling through Ventura and stumbled upon this place. It tasted amazing and food came out in 3 minutes! Did not disappoint. Definitely coming back next time I'm in town

    Pastor Torta

    We came here for lunch and the food we ordered is good and flavorful. The flavors are very rich, not salty. The outdoor sitting is such a great way to enjoy your food :)

Parking is, well, if you know you know. :( REVIEW: This is a great little restaurant and I prioritize coming here every time I am in DTVTA. Recently, I was at the Rubicon Theatre and needed lunch after a show. This location is located within walking distance of the Rubicon and is usually so busy each time I come! My marker of a good place to eat is usually on how busy they are. :) This recent visit I had a torta (my first, didn't catch the name) and it was outstanding! The meat was fresh and hot and the bun was flavorful! I did note that on my next visit here I want to try the Hawaiian (?) torta! Can't wait to be back! The service is always great each time. Thank you to the ladies who are friendly and respectful and greeted us (and all the customers) with a smile. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend!

First, let me say I am not family to anyone that works at Spencer's although I am a long time customer. I'd like to point out how understanding my waitress was today, her name is Jackson. I received my food right away and refills when needed but I'd like to comment on the three women seated in the table next to me and how Jackson handled them. Kindly put these three were demanding and not very understanding of Jackson's time. The MANY times they asked for changes to the food, several other things they "asked" for Jackson kept her cool and quickly gave them what they requested. It's hard being a server and Jackson may have working at a first of second job (she looked 17-18) but she was a star. Well done Jackson...keep up the good work.

    I ate a grilled fish taco at Spencer MaKenzie's many years ago and think about it each time we…read moredrive through Ventura. It was a solid grilled fish taco with not a ton of pomp and circumstance. Just unadulterated goodness. Fast forward to my recent visit - it didn't quite hit the same though I'm sure my palette has since evolved. The World Famous grilled fish taco ($7.95) was good, but was only made better with the in house sweet chili fire sauce. Of the things we ordered, I did really enjoy the ahicado ($13.75) which is ahi tuna mixed in lemon infused olive oil on top of avocado and served with wonton chips. I love a wonton chip situation and paired with the fresh ahi, it made for a perfect bite. The guy next to us ordered several Parmesan hard shell tacos ($5.50) so I did too (with shredded chicken). The flavorful chicken was perfectly shredded so you didn't get unmanageable hunks with each bite. These were unexpectedly very tasty. Highly recommend if you like a hard shell sitch. Judging from the lines at 2:00PM on a Saturday afternoon, Spencer MaKenzie's is a Ventura institution even if I won't be thinking about the grilled fish tacos n-e-more. PSA: dining on the patio is the move even if you have to wait.

I'd been…read morehere before, but only in the morning for matcha, so this was my first time experiencing their happy hour. The happy hour menu has a great selection of both food and drinks at really reasonable prices. We ordered the chicken tacos, the spinach and artichoke dip, and a drink, and everything was delicious. The tacos were flavorful, the dip was creamy and perfect for sharing, and the drink hit the spot. Service is pretty straightforward you place your order at the counter, and someone brings everything to your table. There's not a lot of interaction with the staff, but everything was smooth and efficient. One of my favorite parts was the atmosphere. The happy hour crowd was a nice mix of people, and the place had a fun, lively energy without feeling overwhelming. Since it was a warm day, my friend and I chose to sit inside. We had a spacious table with plenty of room for our food and drinks, which made it easy to relax and enjoy catching up. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back for happy hour. It's a great spot for good food, reasonably priced drinks, and a casual place to meet up with friends.

Ten Tigers is off the beaten path and I've met friends here for coffee but after 4:00 it transforms into Ten Tigers. Hubby read about their Smash Burgers so we split one and the flavors with chipotle aioli were the bomb! We've been going to Third Window in SB for our Smash Burger fix- no need to drive all that way anymore!! For $17 you get a Smash Burger that feeds 2 and perfectly crispy thin fries fried in beef tallow. They even serve chipotle aioli with fries- Best!! I ordered the special White Sangria which Is so good I had to order on repeat. Since it was Happy Hour, we also ordered the grilled chicken tacos for $8. We both thought those were tasty as well and their avocado salsa verde is the just like the one I make at home. Ambiance is well curated with welcoming outside patio feeling very open and airy with organic Boho accents and wood features. The servers were efficient but very friendly. Ten Tigers is legitimately a 5 Star - will Recommend highly! Since this review, we re-visited on a Friday evening and ordered the same drinks and meal. I can confirm the consistent quality of the food. This Friday night was hopping with several groups celebrating Birthdays. We lucked out and found one of the last open tables. The servers were very busy and took a while to clear off and clean our table - not a big deal because their priority is serving the tables and getting the food and drinks out to the tables. There is a longer line at the counter to order just before Happy Hour ends at 6:00. Tip- plan your evening to arrive earlier. Ten Tigers is now on our repeat list in Ventura.

Small line in front, you order, pay, go inside, wait for your order at pick up window. Simple! Tables on the pier, and they have a patio facing the ocean, nice view. Picnic tables! They sell wine, beer, margarita-s. Great selection! But the tacos!!! We got 4 between me and my husband to share and sample: Baja Taco (got fried fish) had fresh ingredients, lettuce and a nice lime flavor! Beach House Tacos (got grilled fish), nice pineapple salsa, tender fish, nice sauces and lettuce. Calamari Taco - fried calamari - fresh avocado and cabbage, nice sauce - chipotle. Marilu Taco with popcorn shrimp with nice chile lime crema, not too spicy. Even the fried seafood here is fresh, not very fried, just a tad, nice and crispy, but not greasy. Loved every taco, they are all different than each other, they use fresh ingredients and vegetables, each had a great, original flavor, they don't skimp on anything - seafood or ingredients. By far, some of the best tacos I ever had, they go in my Top 5. 4 Tacos (they are big!) are enough for 2 people. My and my husband we also shared a portion of guac and chips, they reminded us of Mexico. The guac had a lime flavor and well mashed, the tortilla chips are thicker and extra friend. Great food, nice service, unpretentious taco stand on Ventura Pier. Nice views. Wonderful discovery and a nice place to eat at! I am a fan!

    Beach House Tacos? More like Beach House Snacks…read more I stood in line for 15 minutes just to place my order at the window, then waited another 45 minutes for my food. An hour later, I was handed a to-go box so tiny it fit in the palm of my hand. For a split second, I thought maybe they forgot the rest of my order. Nope. Inside were three of the smallest "street tacos" I've ever seen. I've seen more substantial meals in Barbie's Dreamhouse. I ordered the carne asada, but apparently the salt shaker took the day off because the meat had absolutely zero seasoning. No salt, no flavor, no redeeming qualities. The punchline? This tiny, flavorless comedy routine cost me $10 and an hour of my life. If you're looking for an appetizer for a doll or you're on a strict "disappointment diet," this is your place. As for me... never again.
