Very knowledgeable and super friendly with fantastic recommendations. The owners and chief are frequently walking the dining room and making sure you are having a great experience.

“What a find! The food was amazingly good- some of the best pizza and flatbread I've ever had. They had the leopard spots dialed in! We also really enjoyed the charcuterie board and salad we got. Service was impeccable and everyone in our group enjoyed the three different glasses we got and for the person in our party who doesn't drink alcohol, she enjoyed a really refreshing nonalcoholic Negroni. I ordered that as my second drink it was so good. It was a fun and lively atmosphere albeit a little loud, but we made it work. “

“I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review for Side Street, I am always in a happy food comma post-brunch and forget. Side Street has long been my absolute favorite restaurant in Ventura County! When it comes to the menu at Side Street, you genuinely can't make a wrong choice. Personally, I'm hooked on their country fried steak and waffles. Hands down the best gravy you'll ever have! There's something about the way they make their coffee that has me drinking half a pot of coffee I swear. When I go out to eat, I expect the food to be better than what I could make myself at home. It's a standard that so many breakfast/lunch restaurants seem to miss, but Side Street consistently exceeds these expectations without fail. What sets Side Street apart is not only the outstanding food but also their commitment to keeping prices reasonable. You definitely get more than your money's worth here! So many of their dishes come with 1) eggs, 2) toast or biscuits & gravy, AND 3) home fries or hash browns. It's a breakfast lover's dream come true! In the post-COVID era, the closure of so many beloved family-owned restaurants was heartbreaking. Side Street not only weathered the storm but continues to thrive. Stepping into Side Street feels like entering a home away from home. Suzanne, the owner and founder, is a constant presence, working alongside her husband, Ryan, and son, Drew. This is as family-owned as it gets, and that authenticity resonates in every corner of the restaurant. What truly makes Side Street special is the family environment. Every member of the staff makes the atmosphere so welcoming. It's evident that they take pride in providing exceptional service, making each visit a memorable experience. In a time where good, family-owned establishments are hard to come by, Side Street stands out as a beacon of what going to a restaurant should be. From the warm atmosphere to the delicious food and impeccable service, this restaurant will always be my go-to. If you haven't experienced the magic of Side Street, it's about time you do! Truly a hidden gem of Ventura County!“

“ACTUAL RATING: 4.5
Our usual place was closed. So we decided to give Go Fish a try. Definitely not disappointed! Fish was fresh and tasty. Rolls were creative and delicious. Portions weren’t skimpy. The reason for the half star deduction: it is a bit pricey. That said, we’ll definitely be back.“

“Urbane Cafe is hands down one of my favorite places to grab lunch or dinner! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. Their Cobb Salad is absolutely amazing packed with fresh ingredients, generous portions, and so much flavor. It’s become my go-to order every time I visit.

What really makes this place stand out, though, is the team. Everyone is always welcoming, friendly, and genuinely seems to care about providing a great experience. The staff works hard, keeps everything running smoothly, and always greets customers with a smile.

Whether you’re looking for a quick lunch, a casual dinner, or just a great meal made with quality ingredients, Urbane Cafe never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

Wheelchair accessibility: There are designated parking spots and the donut shop is wheelchair accessible.“

“A big Sisters of the Drum shout-out to Topper’s Pizza on Moorpark Road!
Today our Sisters of the Drum lunch group gathered at Topper’s Pizza, and we want to say a heartfelt thank you for taking such good care of us. Our group is part of the women’s drumming class at Goebel Senior Center, led by a wonderful musician and teacher. We take a break from class during the summer, but we still meet for lunch every other week to keep the friendship, laughter, rhythm, and good vibrations going.
Topper’s Pizza was so welcoming, patient, and accommodating with our lively group of amazing women of the “awesome age.” They didn’t mind our laughter, our stories, our songs, or even a little Sisters of the Drum spirit!
We are so grateful for local eateries that make room for community, connection, and a variety of women who bring joy wherever they go.
Thank you, Topper’s Pizza — you rock! 🥁🍕💛
With gratitude from the Sisters of the Drum“

“I went to this restaurant to try there food and honestly I feel like I was missing out the yuka was very soft and crunchy and the picture below was my favorite I forgot the name but ask for that. Also the guy who works there is very kind and patient he walks you through the menu and always checks on to make sure you’re fine . Totally worth it“

“It's a Starbucks inside CLU campus. Very nice but very busy during peak hours because of the students living on campus which isn't a bad thing. Just be prepared to occasionally run into a long line if you decide to check out the campus. Otherwise it's a great coffee place in a very beautiful area that'd very laid back and relaxing so enjoy.“

“I visited Nick's Restaurant in Westlake three weeks ago and had an exceptional experience. The service was outstanding, and Madel F was especially nice and attentive, making our dining experience truly memorable. My favorite dish, the Greek salad, was incredibly delicious. The restaurant was impeccably clean, and the service Madel provided was top-notch. I highly recommend Nick's Restaurant for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and excellent service!“

“I've been here a few times since they opened. My favorites are the catfish, shrimp, collard greens, yams, rolls, and hush puppies. The prices are SUPER low compared to other seafood/cajun places and the staff has always been kind. I hope they'll be around for a long time so that I can try everything on the menu 😊“

“Most delicious dogs I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend!!! 😋“

“Absolutely fantastic! I did not remember to take a picture until I was almost done. The breakfast flatbread was fantastic. The soft and crunchy, spicy and sweet, savory and light…perfect, flavorful balance.
The atmosphere was like being with familiar friends, with warmth and strength, genuine kindness with no fluff and yet a certain love for the people, the staff and the quality of food- shown with actions and mannerisms.“

“Creative menu options and always a really satisfying meal. Portions are great, always very fresh and delicious. Love that there is a gluten free waffle also but wish the potatoes were gf also! Fresh squeezed juice, nice atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff.“

“I love love love this place. The drinks are delicious. My favorite is the superfruit tea that contains fresh fruit. Sometimes I just get a plain tea lightly sweetened. They use really high-quality teas. When I'm in the mood for a sweet treat, I like to get either a Thai tea or strawberry matcha with strawberry boba. I'm working my way through the menu. Everything is so good. Fresh teas and fresh fruits make them really stand out. They also have lots of jelly and boba toppings to choose from. The snacks are also quite tasty. The tokoyaki is good. I also always check out the snacks at the counter. Sometimes they have really great Asian pastry snacks. Depends on the day. But it's always fun to check out what they have. The staff are really nice, and the place is totally cute. There are stuffed animals and toys for sale. The stock changes, which makes it fun to look around. Great for gifts! My boyfriend also really likes this place.“

“Good!!! Ordered online and ready when I got there. Quick with healthy options.“

“Amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯“

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Longevity Coffee on our interview date. Sometimes we like to go to coffeeshops to relax, and let me tell you, Longevity Coffee is a wonderful place for that. In fact, it’s downright ‘chill’ with their calming yet warm color palette, massage chairs, and their emphasis on wellness (which consists of an array of organic snacks, superfoods, herbal drops, and general health information). Keeping along with a healthy lifestyle, their menu also provides a fair variety of healthier options of classic staples for both food and beverage. From acai bowls to parfaits to Cali-favorite avocado toast, each item is both nutritious and yummy with a majority of them also being vegan. If you thought you couldn’t decide on food, what until you get a glimpse of their drink menu! Longevity Coffee provides their customers with great blend of 100% organic and low acid coffee, while also including a unique list of signature blends, and house specialties comprised of caffeine and non-caffeinated options (including protein shakes). To top it all off, the shop’s baristas and manager are absolutely delightful! Longevity Coffee is the shop to visit to be taken care of as if you were family!“
