Great historical restaurant. My partner and I’ve waited way too long to try this amazing restaurant. Yummmy! We also visited towards the end of the evening. Service was so amazing! They made us feel welcome and comfortable. Huge delicious portions that reheat so well when brought home. Definitely going back.

This has got to be one of the worst restaurants that I’ve been to.
The waitress didn’t have a warm and inviting attitude, which is important if you want your business to succeed.
When she saw that I wanted to try the happy hour menu, she made an obvious face. And not a nice one.
The food was extremely subpar. They reminded me of middle-school lunch. The horchata did not taste fresh.
The lady who took my payment at the end was this establishment’s saving grace.
I do not recommend this place.

My wife and I had considered this our “go to” Mexican dinner place for 4 years. However, our most recent visit for dinner changed our minds. We ordered with our meal and drinks a side of beans. Typically we never give it a second thought. But when this incredibly tiny “dollop” of beans arrived, about the size of an ice cream scoop for $6.95, I laughed. I pointed this out to our waitress, who was far from apologetic, not even offering to take the plate back to the kitchen a portion representative of the price.
Disappointing. We will find another restaurant. For 25¢ of beans, they lost a repeat customer.

I’ve been dining here since the 70’s, and it’s still good as always.
On my recent visit I had carne asada tacos with rice and beans. It was perfect.
The chips and salsa are good as well, with a nice kick.
The margarita was just ok. It seemed to be weak on the tequila.
We’re always glad to return!

I go there basically once a week. My 4 year old loves their soup and rice and beans. I don’t like spicy so my favorite foods there are chicken and beef fajitas and top sirloin quesadilla. My husband eats other dishes I can’t remember the names but he loves it too. The chips are always warm and fresh.
Their service is great!

I stopped by El Tecolote in Camarillo to visit an old friend of mine. Ben and worked together at Jack’s Deli for many years. The food is awesome here. They have been open since 1948. Come by and check it out. 333 North Lewis Rd Camarillo.

It’s been over 30 years since I ate at El Teclote and to this day it’s still the greatest chicken tacos I’ve ever had. Perfectly tender, perfectly seasoned. I’m happy to see it still going strong but certainly not surprised. 5 stars !

Here’s a suggestion: Do not use a cart to deliver food. It shows the customer that you’re letting orders stack up and then distributing them all at once. Food comes out cold thay way. Also more importantly don’t put the food on the lowest shelf of the cart. It is right next to the floor and is kind of unsanitary and not the most pleasant sight. Thanks for reading and hopefully next time will be a better experience. Chips are pretty good too.

We had a family reunion at El Tecolote. Everything went well and everyone enjoyed the food. We were a group of 20 people and everyone was served at a similar time.
Congratulations to the staff and cooks who made this possible.
Sandra helped us out and she was wonderful! She helped me with the panning of the family photo and made sure to help moving tables and chairs to make our photo happen.
NOW the Food: It was Excellent. Look at my chicken and Shrimp Fajitas. The portion is large and comes with beans, rice and tortillas. The Shrimp were large and the chicken juicy and caramelized on the outside. All the food was delicious. They had set up Chorizo with cheese and beans for a dip with large thick chips. We all loved them.
The Flan and chocolate cake were rich and full of flavor.
There was a constant stream of local to Port Hueneme and Camarillo.
You will love the food, the décor and most of all the crew who was great with a very large party.
