INSPIRATION GUIDE

OLDIES AND GOODIES

While our emerging restaurants are
sensational, Ventura has always had good
eats. Here's the rundown of locals' longtime
favorites that have stood the test of time.
Ventura Avenue, aka "The Avenue," is just
north of Downtown and home to the Taco
District. Lalo's Fast Food is a casual stop
with walk-up ordering. Yes, the tacos are great;
so is the ceviche tostada. Come extra hungry
if you want a burrito.
With its large, colorful outdoor patio, Tony's
Pizzaria has been a Surfers' Point institution
since 1959. Its famous thin-crust pizza oozing
with mouthfuls of cheesy goodness comes
by the slice or whole pie.
Pete's Breakfast House serves up hearty
breakfasts like fluffy omelets and buttermilk
pancakes. Lunch's Chorizo (and beef) Burger
features longtime employee Jose's special
habanero salsa recipe.

Go ahead, indulge: All of the burgers at Finney's Crafthouse & Kitchen are
worth it - including the Hickory BBQ Burger with fried onions and bacon.

High ceilings and plenty of windows make this a hip historical
building, while lots of TVs make sure you won't miss any action.
A large menu of crowd-pleasers runs the gamut from flatbread
pizzas and crispy tacos to salads and burgers. If you're hankering
for something decadent, go for the JalapeƱo Egg Burger.
The patty's made with beef chuck, brisket, and hanger steak.
(Check out the Skee-Ball game upstairs, too.)
Steps from the popular C-Street beach you'll find La Cosecha
Modern Cocina. The upscale Mexican restaurant puts its focus front
and center: La Cosecha means "the harvest." In the chefs' capable
hands, local, seasonal produce and sustainable seafood become
Mexican flavors infused with local spirit.
The dining room's tastefully modern, but the real treat is sitting on
the patio taking in views of the Pacific Ocean and the Ventura Pier.
Wherever you sit, enjoy some Carne Asada or Camarones Al Mojo
De Ajo (grilled garlic shrimp). Or opt for appetizers and a tequila
flight hand-picked from the many high-end and organic offerings.
Afterward, head to the beach for a leisurely stroll. Ahh.

Casa De Soria Restaurant has been around
for over 60 years, serving up the tastiest
dishes from all around Mexico. Order the
made-from-scratch Chicken Mole served
with handmade corn tortillas.
You'd expect super-fresh fish from a
restaurant at Ventura Harbor, and Andria's
Seafood Restaurant & Market doesn't
disappoint. Indulge in creamy clam chowder
in a sourdough bread bowl - and milliondollar views.
Duke's Griddle 'n Grill is a stone's-throw
from the sand at the end of Seaward Avenue,
and inside you'll find beachy murals and a
surfboard motif. The menu includes burgers
and sandwiches like The Bronx half-pounder
with pastrami.
