27 Best American Restaurants in Camarillo

“This hidden jem will not disappoint. The food is on point and deliciously fresh and tantalizing! They have a menu that fits every type of eater, including vegetarian selections and healthy tidbits. For those who love to indulge, mouth waters glasses of ice-cold milk shakes dipped in chocolate await you, with leftovers in the container and a spoon! There are waffles with maple syrup, Hawaiian pineapple chicken sandwiches, Serrano peppers mixed in with scrambled eggs, and kids menu items that can feed two very hungry preschools from a single plate. I always have leftovers. And to top it off, the prices are pretty reasonable, especially for the huge portion sizes. When you pull up, you may notice that the lines may be long, but don't let that hijack your food craving. Stop the car and come on in! They have a fast system, and it works like clock work. I don't know if it's because they are located at the airport where people traditionally need fast service? Or if they carry on the excellence, always model from it being an early military insulation moons and moons ago! But it works! You place your order before you're even seated and pay right away. Then you have many opportunities for seating. You can go outside and observe the plans and helicopters up close and personal on the top deck. Or there are several covered see through patios. Each is well heated and ventilated. Or you can snuggle inside in a booth or at a table with friends. You will find plenty of staff who check in on you, and are constantly on the move, providing exceptional, high quality customer service. It's a pleasant atmosphere for families, friends or individuals. You can even find a seat at the counter and watch the food service in action. So check out this community treasure whenever you're in Ventura County! You will not be disappointed but will find a home away from home.“

“Great experience. Stopped on our way home to San Pedro from Ventura. Read the Yelp reviews. Sounded too good to be true. But honey, it was true. Loco Moço worthy to serve on Maui Chile Verde was deeeelicious. Staff all friendly and greet you with big smiles. Will definitely be going back.“

“Great breakfast and dinner!All you can eat for less than $12 person.You can tip them as you walk out.Staff is AWESOME! Clean.Food varies and it is delicious. They have from Chile regenos to salmon to chicken to create your our pasta. Of course, every day is different.It’s buffet style but BETTER because it is prepared for you there. You want a veggie omelette 1st time, then 2nd serving you want meat omelette. Go for it. You eat it - you order it. It is not like a regular buffet where food is left. This is a very well organized, clean and great foods.It has salads and sandwiches for those with other eating habits. Ice cream and pastries until your tummy is full. My favorite, Coffee and soft drinks all you can drink.Please be kind and take all your plates and trash where it belongs. You walk-in and serve yourself.Staff is amazing and this is the college cafeteria. We take care of them. We are nice and polite. Visit and enjoy.Parking - please pay for parking. Parking is monitored.Hours for cafeteria start in August 2023.Contact cafeteria for hours of operation.Unfortunately, they are not open during the summer. It’s okay because the food and service is great. I’ll wait for them.“

“Great food, very reasonably priced, and very pleasant atmosphere!!!😊😊 I do like the store, but my only gripe is that when I’m with my wife, she loves to shop and it costs me more. 😂 However most of the items are very reasonably priced.“

“Latitude 34 is our favorite restaurant (not just in Camarillo). The food is fantastic (lobster bisque, filet mignon, halibut, salmon, ribeye, scallops, sesame ahi, Seabass, Brie chicken, filet mignon bites, chocolate cheesecake are some of our favorites). The servers and the rest of the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive.“

“My wife’s comfort food was so good she eat much more than the small portions she normal eats. My shrimp street taco was as good as I have ever had.“

“If I could rate 10 stars, I would. Matt, a bartender, is amazing. My first time there and he made sure I felt like I was a regular customer. He’s 10/10 rating for sure. If you’re ever in the city and looking for a bar to go to, this is it. I’ve never felt more welcomed in a place than this.“

“Stopped in on a whim and was greeted promptly. Had the 1/2 & 1/2 soup & sandwich combo. Best potato leek soup - ordered another serving! Nice plating on the grilled sourdough cheese - 10/10! I’ve cooked at various restaurants in my 35 yrs - Ric’s is great!“

“We were on our way someplace else but it was just too busy and loud for my taste so we decided to try Onyx. So glad we did. Fantastic food and a great glass of Chardonnay.“

“Breakfast at Tony’s is so good! We had eggs Benedict with the home fried potatoes and the eggs Florentine with hash browns. Both were delicious. The Benedict sauce was so good with a hint of sweet, maybe from the ham ? The potatoes were so good and done perfectly with onions and peppers. A perfect combination. Eggs Florentine with hash browns didn’t disappoint either. Both meals were yummy. I highly recommend Tony’s .“

“We went there yesterday to celebrate the 85th birthday of my sister. We were a party of 8, which included her 3 sons. We each enjoyed our specific orders, service was prompt and everyone we dealt with was attentive. What really stood out, though was the attentive and exceptional service we got from our waitress, Jennifer. She was always cheerful, moved fast, and what impressed me the most was how she constantly checked if we needed anything, and she was there with refills for our drinks even before we can ask for one! Wow, I was super impressed! I had never seen a waitress that awesome in any of the restaurants I’ve eaten, here in the US or even abroad! Way to go, Jennifer! I hope your employers know how lucky they are to have you!“

“It was our first time in US and in 24hours working restaurant. We were pleased and surprised about good service, tasty food, warm waitress at 3:30 am. We are Europeans, so portions looked unbelievably big! It was a great experience and I’m waiting for trying it again in other town.

“By far the best bar in Camarillo. I grew up here and Camarillo has been so boring my whole life. I like Institution and Topa Topa but there isn't a more comfortable place to have a drink than Outlaws. I had the pleasure of having Joe as a bartender and she is awesome. Just fun and laid back. Will be here more often.“

“Came with a party of 11 and it was delicious. Still gave it 5 stars even though the kitchen only forgot my meal and it was an extra 30-40 minute wait for me because the waitress brought my food and told me that it was ridiculous it took so long so they took it off the tab! It was the professional thing to do and there was no need to ask for some kind of compensation.

We all ordered different kinds of things: chicken club sandwich, fries, Brussels spouts, tater tots, burgers, prime rib cheesesteak, chipotle chicken sandwich, mahi tacos, & steak tacos. We all enjoyed our meals and it was delicious, would come back here again! Thank you!“

“What a great place , must get the cheesecake delicious , Twisted Oak Beer was outstanding, everyone was super nice .“

“Went to eat at 12:40 AM after getting back from a long trip and the waiter his name was Diamonte served our food he was a fantastic. Young man and very polite!!!! He was a pleasure to see after a long tiring trip!!!!!!!“

“This place is a lot of fun to watch sports. There are many sports fans, lots of TVs, and enthusiastic people cheering, creating an exciting atmosphere. The place is filled with people in their sports gear. The service is good, and the waitstaff work as quickly as they can. They try hard and are very friendly. Overall, it's a fun place to enjoy watching sports!“

“So my 1st time at this place, pretty surprised to not see it overflowing on a Sunday. It was nice, staff was friendly, but they almost pulled a fast 1 on me. It was early afternoon but i was in the mood for dinner, got a 10 breaded shrimp plate with mashed potatoes with the skin on it, which I'm not fond of, n cheese sticks, n tartar sauce, not the red sauce. They serve me my plate, and my cheese sticks. I started on cheese sticks cause the waitress never brought tartar sauce, she brought the red sauce. Then i look at my shrimp plate n count only 7 shrimps, wtf. Like the cost of food isn't going higer, n you trying to rob me of 3 shrimps, what nerve. Anyway bon appetit to ev1 else.“
