    Mikey C.

    In the day we sweat it out on the streets Of a runaway American dream... OK, I'm peculiar, I admit it. I don't like the food at Wendy's. You couldn't pay me enough to eat a Wendy's hamburger. Nevertheless, I am a huge fan of their Frosty. I never eat them as they serve them, though. I prefer to take them home and freeze them until they're solid. I like to keep a few in the freezer for when I want a little treat after dinner, or when I want to cool off on a hot day. But living in Ventura, we very rarely have hot days. Temperatures here typically range from 46 to 76 degrees F. Only rarely does the temperature here go below 39 or above 82. This last week, however, was insanely hot. Over 100 degrees. Like for a whole damn week. I looked in the freezer for a Frosty and, dammit, there were none to be found. I told myself, as soon as it cools off, I'm gonna stock up on some Frosty. (interesting side note, according to Wendy's twitter account, the plural of Frosty is Frosty, like the plural of deer is deer) About a month ago I saw a commercial on TV that said Wendy's was introducing the Strawberry Frosty. Wow, I thought, I gotta try one of those! So today, it was finally cool enough to go out and do stuff. I headed directly to Wendy's to score a Strawberry Frosty. Only to find out the Strawberry flavor Frosty was a temporary menu item, and it was discontinued a couple days ago. How disappointing! I sure hope they bring it back sometime in the future. I figure they probably will, it seems like nearly all the fast food chains follow that pattern these days (e.g., McRibs at McD's, Fiesta Potatoes [& Mexican Pizza] at Taco Bell). I was just about to order a few Kid's Size Frosty. I didn't see them on the menu, so I asked how much the cost. The sweet employee on the drive thru intercom told me they were a dollar something each, but they had a special deal right now. If you buy a "Boo Book," you get five Junior Frosty for $1 I had never heard of a Boo Book. Sounded like a scam to me. OK, I asked, how much does it cost to buy a Boo Book so I can get the discount. The nice woman said a dollar. She explained the book had 5 coupons, each good for a Jr size Frosty. Five Frosty for a buck? Wow, what a deal! That's what I said to the friendly voice on the intercom, What a deal! Yeah, I'll take one of those Boo Books. She asked me how many Frosty I wanted, I told her four. When I pulled forward to pay I was grinning from ear to ear. And then, you aren't going to believe this, the deal got even better. Get this: the Boo Book costs a dollar, flat. As in no tax added. Wow, wow, wow! I love this deal. I have to admit, just for a second I thought about our Governor, Gavin Newsom. I felt bad about the Big Guy not getting his cut. Gavin gotta eat, too, you know? I briefly considered the financial impact on the state of me for once in my life making a purchase without paying tax. Then I told the cute cashier at the window, give me TWO of those Boo Books!

    I wouldn't suggest eating inside this restaurant alone. I have had no problems in the drive thru however inside the restaurant is another story. The parking lot is dark. I am not impressed with Kailey the manager. On 12/12/2019 at 5:30pm I walked into the restaurant to find a woman sleeping in one of the booths. On the table was a ton of trash with coffee cups from another location. I found this strange but went to order my food. I stood at the register for a few minutes and was finally greeted then ordered my food. As I was waiting I watched and heard one of the employees training a new employee while she made somewhat degrading comments and spoke ill of the district manager. The restaurant also had a portion of the lights either turned off or out. I'm not sure which, but I ate in the dark. At 7:30pm I went through the drive thru and the same trash was still located in the same booth as at 5:30pm and the woman was no longer there. I reported this incident later that evening because my 5:30pm visit left me feeling uneasy and as a manager I would want to know these situations if I wasn't present. On 12/13/19 I received an email from Kailey: Hello, I am reaching out to you via email from the feedback we received this morning from yesterday's visit. I would like to know more information. Time of visit, who the manager was, and what the homeless person looked like. Feel free to call me back at 805-648-7325 ( the restaurant number). Thank you, Kailey I returned a call on 12/13/19 and followed up with Kailey. I asked to speak with the district manager and she questioned my story and said she was there the evening prior and didn't see any of this happening. I reminded her there were cameras in the restaurant and she was free to verify my word. I wasn't impressed with the way she spoke to me but she emailed me saying she would forward my contact information to the dm and he would be calling me. It is now 12/23/19 and this has still not happened. I will follow up after the holiday.

    I've always liked this Wendy's, the food is usually good but not this time. We ordered a single burger, a fish sandwich, and 2 orders of chicken nuggets, everything arrived overcooked and sloppily thrown together. Due to health issues, we've had to order delivery, normally the food arrives hot and yummy. The food was not only overcooked but also cold, and the sandwiches looked like they had been tossed together and then sat on, they tasted even worse. The nuggets were overcooked as well and cold but, since they were for the dogs, they didn't care. Since the order was delivered and it takes days to refund the money (and delivery is expensive), we had to settle for pb&j. I'm so disappointed in the lack of quality and customer service this Wendy's has fallen to. The burger and fish are $5 each so $10 for inedible food, get it right. It'll be awhile before I go back And, is it just me or have Wendy's burgers shrank? They seem quite a bit smaller to me.

After a quick check on yelp, this place came highly recommended. I was a little bit worried when I arrived. We were the only people in the entire restaurant. My wife and I were seated quickly. I did appreciate that the menu was not overly complicated. It made it easy to make our selections. They also did offer happy hour specials during the week. I opted for the double Smashburger and fries. The Smashburger comes with their signature sauce, which you can order at a few different spice levels. The girl at the counter said that normally people go with the regular spice level so I opted for that. When my burger and fries arrived, I was quite surprised at the portion sizes. My basket was filled with french fries and my burger was pleasantly large. In regards to the flavor I do have to say this was probably one of the best tasting burgers I have ever had. I didn't want to note that they do use sweet pickles on their burgers here. But it just works with the flavor that they're going for. My wife ordered the "my girlfriend is not hungry" sampler platter. This came with fries, onion rings, pretzel bites chicken tenders and mozzarella sticks. Everything was great tasting. Their onion rings were cooked to absolute perfection. The restaurant itself on the inside is a little bit small so I could imagine on days that they are busy. It might get a little bit cramped. I did also wanna mention that I did like that. They had a changing table in the restroom. That was a nice touch that you honestly do not see at a lot of restaurants even the mainstream ones.

We also got the sliders. The sliders had a really nice bun. It came with a smash burger Patty, it has wonderful, caramelized, onions, and sliced pickles. It was a very nice combination and they have the yummy thousand island dressing on there similar to In-N-Out. Derick was are server and was doing awesome, especially considering he was alone on a crazy busy day. The food was great, atmosphere decent. We will be back!

This bright blue food truck has always caught my eye and I finally made it in for lunch. Being a food truck, the vibes are super casual and laid back. You place your order, then grab a seat at one of their picnic benches and soak up the sunshine. The staff were incredibly nice, and the sweet little touches like the handwritten note on the to go bag were just too cute. We love those kinds of vibes! Here's what I got: Single Smash Burger: A solid and delicious smash burger! The bun was pillowy soft, the patty had a nice crust, and I'm always a sucker for cheese, thin sliced lettuce, and a thousand island style sauce on a burger. No frills, just super satisfying and done right. Cosmo Fries: Honestly my favorite bite of the day! Loaded fries topped with cheese, onions, burger patty, and their pink sauce...absolutely insane. SO good. I loved the skinny fries they use, and since everything was made fresh to order, the fries stayed extra crispy even with all the toppings. My biggest regret is passing by this food truck for so long without stopping. That was genuinely a stellar smash burger and fries combo, with the added bonus of such friendly and welcoming staff. Next time you're walking around Downtown Ventura and want a casual outdoor bite, definitely make a stop at Cosmos Smash Burgers. (Located at the Channel Islands Juice Co. parking lot just fyi).

I highly recommend eating it there or hopefully near by so it doesn't lose that fresh crunch. However, you have to get any and all fries with their Ranch. I had to get extra as I couldn't seem to get enough. Obviously every fry needed to have a disgusting amount of ranch on it.

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.
