They should be a chain! Accept that chains often water down the original. Eat anything on the menu!

Ok fish tacos.But really was not that impressed.

They go a long way with their history and reputation. Ventura is a hotbed of fish tacos. And Spencer Makenzie’s has gained notoriety for their fish tacos.
Is it the best in Ventura? Some would say yes. Others would say they have competition. Nonetheless the fish tacos are good. Really good. And if you’re on the fish tacos trail it’s worthy of a stop.
Was quite impressed with their fish taco. Was not so impressed with the Tuna version of the fish taco. Not sure why clam chowder is on the menu, but it was met with delight. Street tacos were solid. Veggie tacos as well. Great staff with a good attitude and upbeat energy.

Quote from my son: “the only seafood chowder I’ve ever had that beats this clam chowder bread 🍞 bowl is back home in Maryland and it was crab chowder.”
The fish, calamari, & carne asada tacos were excellent but I would concur with my boy that the clam chowder is a must try!

The ahi tacos are amazing! Really great vibe here.

Real choice to have a room temp bagged tortilla as your taco vessel, not a good one, just a choice. It’s hard to rate, the Brooklyn Sauce, cabbage slaw and sweet chili fire sauce all super good, but that was the best part. The grilled fish was dry and the tempura was over fried in bad oil. Overall, should have trusted the recent review referencing white people tacos, very much. Also glad I hit the happy hour, would not have been stoked paying full price for this

I make this stop every time I head through Ventura on the 101. The tacos are fantastic and the cheesy hardshells truly make the experience. I also love their cheescurds, which are fun thing to find outside the Midwest. Do your self a favor and order from the road if you want to save time. The staff are friendly, but orders consistently come up slowly and this place is popular so eating outside at a counter is the most likely dining scenario. If I had one actual critique, it is that they package everything to death in clear plastic shells. The amount of trash generated by a single order is troubling.
Best tempura fish taco and sauce hands down!!
