I recently had lunch at this location. The hostess was super prompt and friendly... to everyone but us. My waitress Cheryl was attentive, kind, courteous and totally on top of things... for everyone but us. If she put as much effort into assisting us as she did in ensuring I knew her name, maybe she would have received a tip. Had she not been ridiculously rude about the items I ordered, or about my request for a box, I might not be making this post. I've been to this location before without my husband and had a ple... read more

Just spent over twenty minutes sitting in a booth without service. I arrived to a mostly empty restaurant. I waiting at the front for a bit and a guy (whom I later guessed to be the manager) finally seated me. I started reading through work material. I saw a server about ten minutes later. I have to assume she was on break? I would have been okay if I was able to get a cup of coffee but after twenty minutes, no more sign of the manager and two tables being served that came after me...I decided a slight wait at Pete's for bet... read more

If you like pre packaged food bought from a store this is the place for you. If you like unseasoned probably microwaved potatoes than you'll love this place. If you like your egg yolks runny like water with no flavor as well. Never trying this place again.

Worst experience ever. You figure if you put an online order they would have it done before done in. They told me they never recieved the order when in fact they did they just didn't check. They are not all there in the head unfortunately. Would never recommend this place

We stopped here just before 11:30 for lunch. We walked in and the staff ignored us as we waited and waited. We made sure they saw us and they weren't busy. When a waitress took food to a table we were sure she was coming over to us but she continued to ignore us. As we were leaving I looked over at her one last time and threw up my hands but that had no reaction either. We will never ever come here again and will be sure and let our visitors know not to stop there in Ventura. We have eaten at the one in Simi Valley and th... read more
