29 Best Seafood Restaurants in Oxnard

“We just found this amazing eatery in Oxnard by chance. OMG, it was so good! I have been cursed with the capsaicin sensitivity gene, so I can't tolerate the"heat" 🥵 that many other ethnicities can handle in their customary cuisine... dang European ancestry 🫠😆, but I do enjoy things to have seasoning and not taste like cardboard. My husband loves the hot stuff and got it on the side. Too often I end up not being able to eat the food from most taquerias, even after explaining my issues, but not the case here, everything was awesome. The beans are flavorful, soft, & not hard nor mushy. The rice is cooked perfectly, so it was fluffy with a soft mouth feel without being mushy and not a single undercooked grain to break any teeth, as I find all too often. The herbs & veggies are very fresh. They also used red onions instead of white, which also added flavor without the heat that I was so grateful for. The plentiful asada was cooked fresh for your order, no heat lamp nuggets or brown bits here, and tasted great! We happened to just drop in for lunch, had a wonderful conversation with the staff and other customers, and totally enjoyed our excellent meal. They specialize in Ceviche, having won 1st place at the Ceviche Chow Down the last two years, '24 & '25, that's held yearly at the Olivas Adobe. The event raises funds for Mission FISH, a non-profit dedicated to providing fishing therapy trips for Veterans, Active Duty Military, First Responders, and Gold Star Families. Proceeds this year were to support “Operation Anacapa 2025,” Mission FISH’s 10th annual fishing trip that gives over 100 heroes a day of Fishing, Interacting, Sharing & Healing. Great people and excellent food! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!“

“Fantastic staff, fantastic food and fantastic decor. My favorite!“

“I found this shop scanning GMaps. But as I was driving thru an industrial park I began to think they led me off course. So it’s where they do most of the mongering but they have a little shop that serves most of the people in the industrial parks and vicinity. It was funny, they called me out for it lol.

But the girl was super nice and helpful and led me to the Fish Tacos. Well worth it. Light bread in, good crisp and flavor. I would def come back but it’s a lunch spot for the locals. Don’t let that scare you away.“

“Tasty fresh fried seafood. Rustic environment, gives a true beach experience. Chef took a quick break to check on various guest, was interesting and pleasant to talk with. Ordered shrimp and scallops, not a typical meal for me, yet was highly edible. I'll come back with a more complex order soon.“

“I enjoy the Boiled shrimp, Cajun sausage and corn on the cob.“

“Chowder is always on point. Recently ordered ceviche and was disappointed to find out they no longer make it with fish, but rather shrimp only. You have to ask for lemons and hot sauce which was typically made readily available in the past. We miss when this restaurant used to be upstairs.“

“Cabo Seafood Grill And Cantina was absolutely delicious! The food was fresh and full of flavor. One of the best parts of our visit was the tableside guacamole it was made fresh right in front of us and tasted amazing. You can really tell they take pride in quality because they also make their tortillas fresh.

The restaurant has a nice bar area as well as outdoor seating, which gives you great options depending on the vibe you want. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the overall experience was wonderful. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re in the Oxnard area!“

“Wow! Wow! What can I not say about the dishes? EL 30 Mariscos delivered. They served fresh roasted salsa, ceviche, and chips. To many favorite dishes to list. Check out the pictures and see for yourself!!!

When in Ventura this is a most...“

“My favorite spot in oxnard!! We make a point to try new things on the menu often because everything is so good!! Full of flavor and super fresh ingredients. The tacos are by far my favorite but the fresh made empenadas are a close second!! Everything's made fresh to order so it's hot and delicious! The owner is also super nice. Great spot.“

“We came to Santa Barbara for the long weekend, but our car broke down and we got in pretty late. We tried ordering through DoorDash, but delivery wasn’t available since we were about 30 minutes from the restaurant. We called and explained what happened— and they went above and beyond. They delivered the food themselves, didn’t charge us for delivery, and it arrived hot. Truly couldn’t have asked for more. Seriously, a great restaurant.“

“Moved to Vegas 25 years ago. Miss 3 things about Oxnard - Family, the beach and Otani’s. Been fortunate to eat in some of the best restaurants in the U.S. I would choose Otani’s Fried Teriyaki Snapper with double rice over any other meal that’s out there. Otani’s was a staple for me growing up and had the fortune of knowing the family. Crave it constantly and go there every day whenever I make it back to town.“

“This is obviously one of the coolest place to eat in the region. Anytime I come to this place I am deeply happy. They maintain their high level service and the topmost level of cooking they provide. You always win with this restaurant. Very recommended.“

“rmuy buena atencion...SIEMPRE QUE VENIMOS A OXNAR VENIMOS A DISFRUTAR AQUI .....DESDE LOS ANGELES CA.“

“Delicious and service is awesome 👏🏻“

“I’ve Always Had A Great Time at Tradewinds I Enjoy The Food And Drinks and the Great Service by All the Servers it’s just a friendly environment“

“Had some time to kill this week and headed in to have some lunch, ordered a carne asada taco and albóndigas. Having worked in Mexican food places I figured the soup was gonna take longer. But it took about 20-25 mins to get the taco and the soup. The soup was delicious! But I had to cancel the taco since it took so long. If u are in a rush do not eat there..
If you have plenty of time and like homemade tortillas head in. The workers where friendly, but sadly I never got my money back for my taco 3.50 isn't much but it does leave me with bit of a poor experience because of it. Could have been 5 stars. Again food is delicious and greatly seasoned.“

“Good place to hang out and have drinks“

“i recommend it a lot..great service and the food and as Excellent 👌😊“

“service was friendly. Food was good.“

“Food is delicious and the servers are super friendly! Will be going back!“

“gd food first time here. visitor to cali. would come back 🙂“

“Best clam chowder soup 😋 great service , fast and more like casual dining but excellent food, great crispy fish, good seafood.“

“I only got to try them recently due to DoorDash and I have to say I like them way better than the snooty ones at Seafood. Their section is smaller but they are so generous with their portions. There's usually 2 ladies that work behind the counter and they know how to handle orders from the app, updating new items and removing those that are out vs the ones at Seafood are so dang clueless that they usually end up cancelling my orders. I do take my time to pickup the food so I know it'll be ready when I get there. I have returned countless times now, almost at a weekly basis, trying out different dishes and all have been delicious so far. The folks are friendly and take great care of packing the food ❤️“

“Highly recommend! I ordered uni (sea urchin) and otoro. They were excellent: fresh, rich, and high quality, with no off taste or smell even without any extra preparation. The staff were friendly, and pickup was smooth and quick. The uni also came in a beautiful wooden box. I’ll definitely try other kinds next time!“

“La Vero’s is a must visit!
Everything from the fresh chips and salsa to the entrées and drinks—was absolutely delicious. The flavors are authentic, the portions are generous, and the drinks are perfectly made. You can really taste the love in every dish.

Special recognition to Nubia, who made the experience even better. She was attentive, friendly, and honestly one of the best servers we’ve ever had. 😁“

“I try not to visit the big brand name juice places because there are lots of little ones that need attention. This is one of those small places play finally visited and I am glad I did. We have more than just juices here, but I settled for the mango papaya large size, but I should have settled for something smaller. It was too much for me but I did like it a lot. Service was good.“

“Exelente servicio . Todos muy amables y la comida riquisima 100% recommendados 👌“
