Best Lunch Restaurants in Oxnard

Service and food keep me coming back. Great ambience in the courtyard under the heaters. Place was packed for good reason. My favorite place for date night or family dinner. The staff treats everyone like Royalty. You guys do it right! If I’m spending money to dine out, this is my first choice in Ventura.

We celebrated my husband's 92nd birthday and it was a great way to celebrate, surrounded by family and assisted by a great waitress. I can't say enough good things about her.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner at Tierra Sur. We had reservations for 2:00 p.m. which really turned out perfect since it was before the rush. The Thanksgiving menu was limited but special. After selecting our wine for dinner, Sam, our server, brought out a plate of sliced bread with garlic oil. For the first course, my husband had the pumpkin soup and I had the salad. I selected the cedar plank salmon while my husband elected to go for the traditional turkey roulade. My salmon was cooked to perfection! The sides were served family style and included dressing (stuffing), mashed potatoes, green beans with almonds, and a wild rice in a squash gourd plus turkey gravy and cranberry sauce. Everything was delicious. We both selected the pumpkin pie for dessert. My husband paired his meal with the Herzog Special Reserve Chardonnay (2022) from the Russian River Valley. I enjoy bold reds so I chose the Herzog Special Reserve Quartet (2021).

We celebrated Thanksgiving with very delicious turkey, ham, and prime rib dinners. Each entree, every side, and dessert was exactly what you would hope it to be, as good or better than home. Service was spot on & even with nearby tables, the noise level was quite comfortable & made it easy to share conversation at our own table. We already appreciated this restaurant with its & location on the harbor, but we love it even more now.

We always enjoy this gem, and it was extra special when we got one of our favorite waitresses, Jennie!
