We were introduced to a concept called Musical Bingo that day, and I was delighted to make my first visit to the brewery on my 55th birthday in May. Every single one of the employees there was kind, gracious, and warm. The food was absolutely amazing and the Musical Bingo is so much fun! I have since been dragging people left and right there and recommending you guys because of what a great laid back family-friendly atmosphere it is. I will be back again and again and again. and I will bring everyone I can with me! 😊🎶🤘🏼”

“Delicious food. Very, very good tomato pie, pizza, and other items (unfortunately they run out of tomato pie too early). Nice, courteous people working there. Problem is last time I went the music was so loud it was hard to have a conversation. I'd prefer some soft meditative music--I wonder how other customers feel. Are there any good songs about frogs--that seems appropriate given the frog figures displayed? Is there a song from Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? Or frog and swamp sounds perhaps? They try to be inclusive, in the sense of treating their employees well, which is to be highly commended. In my mind, there are no inclusive restaurants in Ojai, since a lot of elderly people and others on lower incomes can't afford to eat out. A restaurant, the Green Table, in Santa Barbara, was truly inclusive. It had a bulletin board where people posted donations of meals to those who couldn't afford to eat at the restaurant. I would believe in inclusiveness if I saw that--otherwise, it's just words, not complete. Nevertheless, a nice restaurant, and to be recommended!”

“Beacon Coffee is a reminder that great coffee doesn’t need to be complicated. The menu is simple, the atmosphere is clean and welcoming, and the focus is exactly where it should be: on making an excellent cup of coffee. Every drink feels thoughtfully crafted, letting the quality of the beans speak for themselves instead of covering them up with endless flavors and toppings. If you appreciate coffee for what it is, this place is absolutely worth a visit. As a bonus, my son absolutely loved the blueberry muffin. It was fresh, delicious, and the perfect pairing with an already great coffee experience. Sometimes the simplest approach creates the best experience, and Beacon Coffee does that beautifully.”

The staff handled the party with aplomb and assured everyone enjoyed the evening. This is some of the best craft beer you can find. The food was amazing and plentiful especially the short ribs. I would encourage a visit for some great beers. And if you are having an event, I would strongly suggest working with these folks. These are some of the nicest people you will find at any establishment in Ventura. I will be a regular.”

“I had jury duty at the Ventura courthouse and when I was through, I was starving so I decided to go to eggs and things I ordered the chorizo, scrambled eggs, and English muffin with strawberry raspberry preserves and then of course you get the Swedish pancake, which is exactly why I’m so obsessed with this place. The service was spectacular. I got iced tea to drink. I never waited for anything. Everything was always there. The owner of the of the restaurant was so nice. Make sure everything was good. I can’t wait to go back. I’ll actually make a special trip to go to that exit and things particularly cause the service was so great and the honor was so nice.”

While there we had some amazing food and oh boy do we miss it. Nothing compares to authentic Greek Cuisine and this place has it. From the Gyro to the bakery items, this place made me feel like I was back in Greece. I definitely recommend trying it out and falling in love. We will be forever customers ❤️”

Then desert came. OMG.. blackberies, basil, yogurt and rubarb ice on top sprinkled with sea salt. I was in shock with the first bite. The desert was a true moment of delight. I have no words.

I was seated at the bar & the service was slow and terrible.I was ignored and finally after stopping someone I was able to place my order. After 45 min and lots of asking they apologized as my order never made it to the cooks. They rushed it through. I couldn't even get service to pay my bill to leave. I should have been given a discount at the least. The food was terrible this time around as it was rushed & it tasted like it. Not sure I will be back.”

Every single one of the employees there was kind, gracious, and warm. The food was absolutely amazing and the Musical Bingo is so much fun!

We also sat at the table in front of the fireplace, it was raining & windy out, but the exit area in the patio where we were seated was the only area not covered from the cooler weather & the heater was broken. Luckily the fireplace kept a few of us warm but everyone else was cold. We would've moved but we were a party of 6 & had already ordered drinks and apps. & didn't want to get up and move.”

“I recently stopped by Mothers Tacos and had a great experience that reminded me why small local spots are often the best places to find amazing food. From the moment I arrived, I felt a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere that made me excited to try the menu. The tacos were absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and the perfect balance of seasoning and toppings. Every bite was full of character, and it was clear that the food was prepared with care and attention rather than just made quickly. The tortillas were fresh, the fillings were flavorful, and all the ingredients worked together perfectly. The portions were satisfying, and the overall quality was impressive. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made the visit even better with their positive attitude and great service. I appreciated how comfortable and genuine the whole experience felt—it had that authentic local feel that makes a place memorable. Mothers Tacos is not just about good food; it’s about creating an enjoyable experience where people can relax and appreciate well-made Mexican cuisine. I left completely satisfied and already looking forward to coming back to try more dishes. I would definitely recommend Mothers Tacos to anyone looking for delicious tacos, great flavors, and a place with a welcoming atmosphere and a lot of heart.”

“Service is always welcoming and friendly here. Even when we haven't been here in a while, they remember us and greet us warmly. Chips and salsa to start. The salsa is pretty good, and has a nice spice to it. The chips seemed typical tortilla chips. The fajita trio was served up warm and looked really fresh, the colors of everything were very appealing. Tasting the fajitas confirmed that they were light and fresh as they looked. There really wasn't much in the seasoning added, so it really was ‘au natural’ and simple. It worked well on this dish with the fresh vegetables. The tortillas were typical, nothing special to say about these. I did enjoy the beans and cheese, mashed up nicely and tasted great. Overall, a nice place to stop for Mexican food. Not a lot of spices added to the food here, but you can count on the freshness.”

“Impressive customer service, while our waiter was busy w/other tables (which is understandable and totally fine) there is a busy bus boy buzzing around with water, clearing off plates and bringing extras people are asking for. Our waiter came and took our drink order. Malbec for me… so good, I had to ask what it was: Öko 🤤 and my husband ordered a smash berry something. THAT was SO BOMB! A hint of mint and full flavor of berries bursting bar god deliciousness! We ordered the butter board, now the presentation could use some work… I’m more about flavor and that butter (two options) was finger lickin good. The waiter took a few minutes to chat and told us it was pineapple butter. 🤯 it’s served with small pieces of… maybe focaccia bread (which btw alone was so good too). Meanwhile, the manager has his eye on everything. He saw the moment we put down our menus, and was there to ask is we has any questions. I did: there’s no house salad on the menu & he accommodated my request for one, which was a deciding factor for my main course. The SoCal Bolognese was bursting with flavor. This is new to the menu, we’ve been a few times… my husband is a fan, I was never impressed… until last night. The chorizo was spicy, but not overpowering, pasta cooked perfectly. The house salad could’ve used more tomatoes, but I really can’t complain since it’s not on the menu to begin with. My husband ordered the ahi steak on top of green beans and he said it was really good. It looked amazing, but I was in heaven with the butter board & the bolognese, my palate couldn’t handle the flavor overload 😜 After about 6 visits, I finally found something worth writing home about. For sure putting this place back into rotation. And the prices… very reasonable. Might be coming here a lot more. Everyone was super nice and helpful.”

I’ve driven several hours more than once just to eat here, and every time it’s 100% worth it. The fish tacos are unreal—hands-down the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked, super fresh, and packed with flavor, with just the right amount of crunch and spice. They’re the kind of tacos that ruin you for all others. But it’s not just the food that makes this place special. You can feel the family-oriented values the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and you can tell this is a family-run spot that takes pride in everything they do. Spencer Makenzie’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a destination. Whether you’re local or traveling from hours away like I do, this place is an absolute must-visit. Can’t wait for the next trip back to Ventura just for another bite!”

“Ordered the corn burritos, asada street tacos, and potato tacos. All very delicious and flavourful food and in my opinion, better than what you'd get at most restaurants. Service was amazing and everyone there is very friendly. Would go again the next time I visit the area! :D”

“Wow the food were amazingly delicious!! So much flavor 😋. I have to say the Thai fried rice is probably the best around here in Ventura county. We also ordered the crispy chicken Pad Kra Pao which was everyone's favorite. The fried tofu was crispy on the outside but soft in the inside. Tom Yum soup, Pad see ew(big flat noodles), and gyoza were good too. Very reasonable prices and they seem cheaper than other Thai restaurants. We will definitely come back here. Also where else can you find a Asian restaurant that open til Midnight in Ventura county.”
