    Pastrami on rye
    Jonas A.

    We arrived at 11 AM to a nearly empty dining room. We ordered a tuna melt, pastrami on rye, famous loaded fries, onion rings, and regular fries. We were told to expect a 20 minute wait for our food, but it took 40 minutes to get our food and our meal was cold!?! The sauerkraut in my pastrami still had the chill from the refrigerator. The fries were undercooked and the famous loaded fries were barely above room temperature. The tuna melt had tuna but no melt. The kitchen was overwhelmed by online orders as they were turning away walk-in customers who being told it would be an hour before they'd get their food. Management needs to better balance takeout volume with the experience of guests sitting in the restaurant. When you're cranking out food that's not representing you well, it's time to step back and rethink what you're doing.

    Pastrami Sandwich

    Got the pastrami sandwich. Thick pastrami slices yet tender. Sauerkraut wasn't too salty or overpowering. Overall good portion size yet light. Service was good, expect to wait but it'll be worth it. Ambiance was very relaxed for a Friday, especially noontime but expect guests to get food on the go. Will come back to try more on the menu.

    The place was so cute and I loved all the aesthetics inside ! They featured so many local artists and popular movie references. The burrito portions were huge and I took like a WHILE to finish, splitting it over lunch and breakfast. I really liked how the hashbrowns within the burritos were crunchy. Yet my sausages were soft. The chorizo burrito was flavorful. It is street parking so make sure you come in a little early if you want to find good parking. Overall, I would definitely go there again. Not just is the food good but it's a really pretty place around by water and the community seems very hospitable.

    Breakfast croissant sandwich

    We ordered over the phone on Saturday for pick up and they have a few spots saved for pick up because the space/parking lot is small. We ordered 2 breakfast burritos and a croissant bacon & egg sandwich. Pick up was easy, quick, and friendly. The place has a great beach shack vibe. The food was so so so good! I'm so jealous because I'm from out of town and would love this place in my hometown!!! The breakfast sandwich was hot, big, and so filling. Same with the burritos. They are big enough to share or save half for later. I'll be back every time I'm in Oxnard!!

    So the girlies and I were in need of some serious sustenance after working out yesterday. We wanted something nearby the beach, causal and tasty. As always, found this spot with the help of Yelp. The Strandwich is a badass little hole in the wall sandwich spot and their breakfast menu is absolutely elite! Breakfast sandwiches and burritos with all of the fixings and so many protein options. You order at the counter and then find a seat. Fair warning, this place is small and cozy, so get here early if you want to find a table. Our order was whipped up by a couple of baddies and they brought the food over to our table. I'm a sucker for anything Lychee so started with their Lychee Hawaiian juice and it was the much needed sugar rush I needed after our 5k race. We ordered up a couple of breakfast croissants and breakfast burritos and let me tell you, THEY WERE BOMB! * My bacon, egg, and cheese croissant was a 10/10. It absolutely hit. Loaded with bacon and the perfect over medium egg. The croissant was light and fluffy. The perfect breakfast. If you love sandwiches and want to eat in a little punk rock meets beachy oasis, then this spot is 100% for you. Can't recommend them enough.

    The Strandwich has some of the best sandwiches that I've ever had! Let's start with the Fireman Mike. Tender brisket with a little bit of fat on delicious sourdough with cheese, with some added jalapeno poppers for kick. This sandwich is an easy 12/10. Every bite was delicious. Next, the Vaquero which is also brisket but burger style with chorizo and jalapeños poppers is delicious as well. The burger fixings like pickles and onion gave this one a different feel, and the strand sauce was so good. I'd have to say an 11 or 12/10 for this one as well, but I'd give the slight edge to the Fireman Mike. The regular brisket sandwich is good as well, but I definitely prefer the fireman Mike. The toasted sourdough is my preference over the hoagie roll. I'll give the brisket sammy an 8/10. The roll was nice and buttered but it needs something else on it to take it over the top. All in all the Strandwich is one of the best places to grab food in the whole 805. I'll be back to try much more of the menu, I have my eye on the Tri Tip cheesesteak, the burger, and of course more Fireman Mikes! The service is excellent as well with very nice people working here. I like the outdoor seating options also to enjoy lunch on a nice day. Would recommend to anyone!

    Bacon burrito, yum!

    Ordered the breakfast burrito and it was a tad bit greasy. Not bad just too much grease. It's a good spot my coworkers and I frequent.

    This surfer's hideaway is located near the Silver Strand Beach. It's a great place to stop by and grab some delicious food, before/after taking a walk or surfing on the beach. There aren't many shops around this beach, so having a place like this here is nice. I liked the interior, which had a beachy vibe. There are a few tables inside, and there is outside seating. The service was friendly and excellent, and the price was reasonable. I tried a chicken BLT sandwich and that was good. The chicken was crispy but not dry. It came with a small package of chips. There is a parking in front of the restaurant and a wheelchair parking space, but you can park a car on the street.

    What a neat place! The menu is amazing! They even have gluten-free bread in the freezer, for those of us who need it. My eggs were cooked perfectly. The bacon was delicious. Tater tots are a safe & funoption!! Paul was friendly and I loved being able to watch the Seabees flow in and out while I ate. Will absolutely be back!

    This place is sooooo gas. We ordered the brisket, torta and bacon breakfast burrito both great prices and insane flavor. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

    This simple, unassuming light brown beach house, with the surfboard decoration over the front door is a GEM. The staff is friendly, the vibe is 100% beach town, and the food is excellent!! BBQ PULLED PORK, as good as any sit down. Brisket, as tender as the one I do on my home smoker. The Brussels sprouts !?!? A "fan favorite" we were told; and they did not disappoint! It tastes like these sandwiches were made with the care and detail of a chef. If you're in the Oxnard Silver Strand area, this place is a MUST!

I should have made the review before, to remind me that it's not worth it. The service was ok. Our waitress tried her best. She might be better off writing down what people ordered instead of trying to remember things, she missed three things with our party. First, my niece asked, before ordering a pancake combo, if she could get one pancake made with just blueberries and one with just chocolate. Waitress came back and said yes, but that's all she told us.. Second, my wife ordered her corn beef hash with home style potatoes. Instead, the order came to the table with hash browns. I tried her corn beef hash, it was one of the worse ever. Definitely canned stuff, and not made right. It's like someone thought they could make it, so they must went ahead and did it. Third, I ordered a standard burger with onion rings, it came out with fries. For my order, I told the waitress and she got this corrected right away. The burger was just ok. The bun was nice and buttered, brioche. The meat was juicy and cooked medium as requested. It was under-seasoned, but was okay for me as I usually try to get low sodium, but this makes it taste incomplete. Let's talk about my niece's pancakes though, they came out mixed, both blueberries and chocolate in both pancakes instead of two separate pancakes. And when the bill came, I was charged extra charge for each thing. $3 for the chocolate. $3 for the blueberries. Plate came out over $22, that's crazy. Inside is decently clean and large. Lots of space, although maybe it was because we came in a weekday early at 8:45. Anyway, skip it, not worth it. I prefer the local IHOP.

The process was super easy and made the wait feel seamless. We were seated on the "outdoor" patio, which was absolutely delightful. It's covered, so it feels like you're inside, but it's still open-air and pup friendly, which we loved. They even have a pup menu and bring out little metal water bowls. Our doggo was living his best life. The menu is large with tons of options. We initially tried using the QR code (which is great because it includes photos), but ultimately asked for a paper menu, sometimes it's just easier to flip through. My husband ordered The California (eggs, bacon, and pancakes). This breakfast also comes with toast and your choice of potatoes. We upgraded to the chili cheese tots, thinking it was just a small upcharge from the standard side, and didn't realize until we got back to the hotel that we were charged $8 for them, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the tots were tasty (just eat them quickly because they cool off fast!). His eggs were cooked perfectly, but the $3.50 upcharge to add blueberries to the pancakes felt steep, and the bacon was mostly fat and a bit overcooked. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with poached eggs, and the eggs were absolutely perfect. The dish was bursting with flavor. My only critique was that the beans were a bit too liquid-heavy, which made the tortilla very soggy, I couldn't finish as much as I would've liked because of that. The Bloody Marys, though? So good. Highly recommend! We both loved them. Our server was pleasant and friendly. Oh and there was a Char Man hot sauce on the table that was EPIC! Overall, we would definitely come back, we'd just try a few different menu items next time... except for the Bloody Marys. Those are a repeat order for sure.
