" Visiting El Chilito was a treat! Their seafood selection is fresh and authentic. The shrimp ceviche was one of the best I've ever tasted. I was really impressed with the portion sizes too! The ambiance feels like a cozy beachside spot, and live music added to the overall charm. Although the food took a while to arrive, we never felt ignored by the staff. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family! " (*Curated Review*)

The staff is always so welcoming; whether you're a regular or new, they treat everyone with such respect. I often order the mojarra frita, which is consistently done right! I enjoy the outdoor seating area with the live music, making it a perfect hangout spot for friends! I also indulge in their different michelada varieties which are to die for! Couldn't ask for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my first time visiting El Chilito, and while the atmosphere was pleasant and the staff welcoming, the food did not meet my expectations. The carne asada was a bit overcooked and lacked seasoning, but the michelada was top-notch! Friendly service, but the food needs a bit more attention to detail. I might give it another chance, though. " (*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*)
