" I found El Chilito to be a delightful coastal retreat for seafood lovers. The cuisine shines with fresh flavors and vibrant presentations. I had the caldo de mariscos which was rich and savory, and the portion was satisfying. The live music made for a pleasant dining experience as well. The service was attentive, but sometimes overwhelmed during busy periods. I would definitely recommend trying this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time at El Chilito and I was blown away! The michelada was bursting with flavor and so refreshing. I ordered the ceviche and, while fresh, could have used a tad more seasoning. The ambiance was lively and fun, a great place for groups! The staff was attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. I'll definitely be back to try more from their seafood menu!

Next time, I will definitely try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" For a casual dining experience, El Chilito does not disappoint! The prices are reasonable, and the dishes seem generous in portions. The shrimp tacos are delicious; fresh and perfect for anyone craving seafood. One thing I noticed was that the staff was attentive, which added positivity to our experience. However, my only critique would be that some of the dishes could be a bit more flavorful for the bold taste seekers. Still, I enjoyed my time here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to check out El Chilito Oxnard based on a friend's recommendation and was not disappointed! The atmosphere was lively, with music adding to the overall vibe. I tried their signature michelada which was one of the best I've ever had- packed with flavor and garnished perfectly. The shrimp taco platter was also on-point. Each bite was bursting with fresh ingredients. The staff was attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. I'll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for an authentic place with a lively atmosphere, El Chilito is a fantastic choice! The service is consistently friendly and fast. I personally enjoyed the seafood cocktail which was packed with fresh ingredients. Only criticism is that the dining area can get quite busy and noisy, but if you enjoy that vibe, it’s part of the charm. Highly recommend their micheladas! " (*Curated Review*)
