Do not let the lackluster locale keep you away. The food here is delicious and it’s been run by the same family for YEARS.
My fave (off-menu) item is the Breakfast quesadilla. You cannot miss the fresh habanero salsa. And the tamales, genuinely the very best in town!

We came to visit a relative in Oxnard and found this small hole in the wall type of place through the Google review and I am SO glad we did! The food was fresh and delicious. Family owned and the workers were so nice too! Will be coming back again when we return

My Grandpa use to see oranges in there parking lot. He knew the owners, he was great friend’s with the man of the bakery. He would give me any bread I wanted. My Grandpa would order a burrito for lunch. Great place friendly people. Yes we live in Texas now. My Grandma is resting with my Grandpa in Santa Clara cemetery. Guadalupe Martinez / Georgina Martinez. Wonderful y’all still remember him.

I am so happy to have La Especial back. We tried the ground beef tacos for the first time and they were delicious. I highly recommend them. And the machaca burrito.

Just went back for the first time after being closed since Covid. Lovely family service as usual and amazing burritos. They don’t have a full menu yet, but you can get your fix again of chorizo egg and potato burritos. So excited to support this neighborhood business again. Welcome back! Sorry, I ate it so fast I forgot to take a picture.
Open Saturday and Sundays for now until 1 pm.

We found this restaurant on YELP @ it was all or better than expected. The hush puppies with blue cheese & bacon were amazing. So light & the sauce was the perfect amount of spice. We shared the pulled pork sandwiches & they were delicious. BUT best of all was out server Jodee, she was fun, helpful & prompt. Would go again when we get back to the Phoenix area. Good wine selections. Affordable menu.

It’s one of the main locations I like to go and pick up burritos. The food is actually pretty good I enjoy the chile relleno. the location is not really close to many locations that I’m nearby all the time. But if I’m in the area and I need to eat something I would definitely stop here. It’s a small type of shop so don’t expect something fancy. every time I’ve been there the people have in nice so I never had an issue with the people being rude or having an attitude.
