Ventura’s historic and cultural neighborhood, known as the Avenue, has Mexican restaurants dotted all over the place. And on Taco Tuesday, it’s time to see what’s cooking. MUNCHIES Hosts Jeffrey Alan Belzer and Malachi Gallegos start their day with some sunshine and surfing, before heading to taste a variety of Mexican specialties.

First stop is Angie’s Deli and Mexican Food, which is hiding in the back of a liquor store, where Jeff and Malachi sample al pastor breakfast burritos, chilaquiles, and their first tacos of the day. Next, they head to El Jarocho, which brings its Veracruz style seafood specialties like Baja Fish Tacos and a gargantuan seafood cocktail to Ventura. After that, they head to Lalo’s for a bunch of classic tacos, as well as some off cuts, before wrapping the day out at Tepatitlan where birria, nachos, and mole burritos are on the menu.

    Thanks for making this cool video. Suddenly I have a reason to go to Ventura and make the drive from Santa Clarita. Previously it was just to watch the waves. Or take one of my cats to a vet specialist.❤

    The people in Ventura and Oxnard think they know great food but they don’t – they are clueless on tacos. If Leo’s Taco Truck or Tacos el Gordo or Tacos La Frontera any of those would destroy all these mediocre taco spots around here. I’m surprised Taco de Mexico didn’t show on this list, a lot of people in Oxnard rave about – it’s not all that. Nothing comes close to LA spots around here. There are very few gems in Ventura County. Here are some gems Tacos El Diablo and Panaderia Herrera at 2pm (bread comes out hot) Mondays thru thursdays are gems. Back Bench Pizza for the NY pizza lovers on Ventura Main St and La Huerta Juice Bar in El Rio are gems. Chinese food in Ventura sucks too – forget about it; people say Peking but their Orange chicken sucks. No Chinese food spots here. Santa Barbara has a decent spot for Orange Chicken called Mandarin Palace upper state on 5 Points.

    Angie’s is my go-to spot. Hopefully they can gain some more business from this video! Better speak some Spanish if you plan on going!
