Chile Peppers Mexican Eatery

The blond waitress made it a wonderful experience.

This is for the Natural Juice spot! DELICIOUS! My fave Saturday morning foodie run. Open early! I get the Asada Torta with extra meat (so worth it), extra avocado & cheese- it's the cojita cheese that doesn't overpower the flavor of the meat. Fresh, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, mayo and pickled jalapeños bring it all together. Don't sleep on the juices! They are made with FRESH fruit- no added sugars, sherberts or flavoring just pure juicy fruits. So far I tried Dracula (beet lovers dream), Green Juice (fresh and tastes so green!) & One in a Melon (OMG! The Watermelon & Cantaloupe really comes through- SOooO good). It can definitely get a little pricey, but it's fair for the quality, portion and freshness. A torta & a XL juice is perfectly shareable. They have seasonal drinks and food as well!

Absolutely loved loved loved their Molcajete de Mariscos. It is super hot and spicy, exactly how I like it. The salsa gravy with full of seafood, just awesome. Loved their Michelada too. We will visit again to try at the restaurant with proper setup as we had to opt for takeout due to covid. Definitely recommending.

What an amazing experience! Our only down side was that we had not been sooner. The food was fantastico!! Hands down our favorite since being at Ventura county. If you are look for authentic and unique but delicious Mexican then you must have dinner at Chili Peppers and try their Molcajeta!

It was recently explained to me that this is a Mexican style seafood restraurant, not just a common taco shop. Don't get me wrong, their tacos are still pretty good. However, tonight with my new understanding of their fare, I decided to try something new and ended up falling in love with the Chili Peppers Piña! (Seafood stew served in a pineapple) Of course with a classic margarita.

1st time. Great food. Our waiter was very polite. Will go again and invite all yall know

Really good place... Micheladas are what y expected, I try the chili peppers pinaple and it was exelent...

It's my favorite place in town! My family are regulars. Perfect salsa and quality dishes. Love the atmosphere but also very quickly to go.

We Love this place. Makes us feel like family. Food is great, staff is fantastic. Plenty of seating and fast service.

Came here last Friday with my wife because I recommended this place based on a friend’s suggestion, and honestly, it was some of the best food we’ve had in a while. We started off with the aguachiles let me tell you, they were amazing! Very rich in flavor, though definitely on the spicy side. The molcajete was just as good, it came with a variety of meats like chicken, chorizo, carne asada, and more. My wife and I will definitely be coming back again very soon!!!

Best original Mexican cooking in Camarillo, even the tortillas are made right there. Tastes like my mother used to cook. The service is great and friendly. My absolute go too when I'm craving Mexican food. The draft beer is nice and cold and their Margaritas are yummm!

Very good food and drinks but a little on the expensive side. The service and speed of cooking is fast. Everyone is really nice at this restaurant. I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Well best thing is it's fresh. One item was over salted and greasy but had real potential as shrimp was fresh and cooked just right. I'm not crazy about Chipotle flavor anyway. Salsa v fresh and chips ok. Burrito was generous and ice tea was huge. Fried ice was excellent. Overall freshness wins out.

The Asada Nachos were great! Cadillac Margarita was good but the Don Julio Margarita was way better! Chips & salsa was good the salsa was excellent

They have a good food, good drinks and great service

+4

Good, but not amazing food. Unfortunately we were seated next to the bar which was very noisy. We all thought it was overpriced for what it was. Would not recommend.

The food here was really good. I had the Small Chilli peppers Cocktail and a half dozen oysters and they were very fresh and had great flavor. The only reason I only gave them 4 stars is because the service was a bit slow. The waitresses were very nice and polite it just took a long time to get our drinks and food. I would definitely go back on a regular basis. Oh and the prices aren't bad at all!

I been have visited the restaurant 3x both pervious the AC was out .it made it vary uncomfortable. this time great. service was on point . food good I need to try the shrimp next time.

This place specializes in seafood, and they do a good job at it. It's a little pricey, but you really don't want to mess around with cheap fish taco's in my book.... Service is friendly, food arrives quickly and is hot and tasty.

The restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived, we ordered drinks by the wat are delicious. The prices are kinda high . My grandson was a little disappointed with his bacon shrimp wraps. He said they were chewy. He only ate one, he loves his seafood so I know they were not very good. Overall, it's a pleasant restaurant.

Quality and quantity are really good. Mariachi arrived during our Sunday 2:15 visit. Sports were also displayed on the TV's.

Food was good and service was great. Good selection of drinks and they got happy hour. Enjoyed the food and would go back. Pricing is on the higher end but is not terrible.

Chili peppers oysters are amazing!! Plus their ceviche and aguachiles are very yummy too. I've tried some regular Mexican style dishes like enchilada and another friend had something else, can't remember, but it was mediocre. Not so good. Their seafood dishes are bomb tho. And so are their molcajete dishes! Drinks are good here too.

If you like Mexican food this is the place. Everything was delicious and service was very good. I tell you what I had to eat but I can't even pronounce it.

Decided to visit a new restaurant, ordered the combination plate with one mini burrito verde(pork) one mini burrito rojo(beef) both good taste, my favorite the verde, if in Camarillo worth a visit.

Shredded beef taco and enchilada were great. Cantarito drink was good too. The only slight negative was that for a slow nighr the waiter was not very attentive.

Love the food. Service is not that good.

WAY overpriced! The food is good but so not worth the price. The bartender at the time had a horrible, almost threatening attitude. I live very close and wish this was my go to for good Mex grub. Not happening. The juice place next door has the most amazing Birria and Carnitas tacos, and the wonderful Somis Market and Cafe is just down the street. Both have great food and service. Realistic prices as well.

Have been to Chili Peppers a couple of times about 2 o;clock after t lunch rush. There were less than 6 people in the restaurant both times. While the food was good the service was lacking. Seems the wait staff preferred to hang out in the kitchen rather than be more attentive to guests. When the kitchen door swung open a few times our waiter saw us waiving our arms to get his attention. He failed to respond yet we could hear the chatter among the staff . When the waiter did come by he was pleasant Perhaps it was a big lunch time and the wait staff was tired. As I said, the food was enjoyable but we will probably not go back. We had the same experience with poor service there before so we won't be coming back.

Burrito, meat was toasted; over cook. The fajita's not good at all ; small and pricey. Good horchata! Maybe the Sea Food is better. Not planning to go again.

We came here years ago as regulars. We introduced family and friends to this place. It makes me sad to see what chili pepers is today.😔 To begin the waitress took orders for the four of us and wasnt writing anything down, she had to veryfy 4x. All food came wrong. She disapeared. Bartender cussing with patrons at bar. I was embarassed for the 2 we invited there. NEVER AGAIN...

This place use to be on point. Food is NOT that great anymore. The service was even worse. My daughter ordered chicken tenders from the kids menu. She couldn't even eat them because they were totally over cooked. The rest of the plates were just ok. Now, lets talk about the service. There were three servers working. Five tables total. It took about 10min for a server to take our order. She brought stale chips. The salsa was good. The food came out pretty quick. She checked on us once. She never pre bussed our table and we waited and waited and waited for our check. I finally had to stand in front of our table to get her to bring us our check. We will not be going back. Thats to bad because this was one of the better restaurant's here in Camarillo.

Eat at your own risk! I was in the mood for a nice shrimp cocktail so I took my son to this restaurant and he had ordered the carnitas tacos, when my ordered arrived, I took one bite and bit into the nastiest rotten shrimp. If you ever smelled it you know it’s nasty. Imagine biting into it and getting that nastiness in you mouth, how could they possibly serve this!!! When the server returned they offered to replace the plate with some tacos. So instead of getting the dinner I wanted I got a mouth full of rotten shrimp and some throw away tacos. Eat at your own risk. If your looking for some good chum or bait, then maybe check the spot but otherwise, save you money and go to taqueria potrillos where u won’t get old rotten shrimp.

This restaurant used to be my favorite place to eat,I moved out of state and hadn’t been to eat here in over 2 years and missed it so much! their fajitas and drinks used to be delicious. I went there on Friday and the food was terrible I ordered the chili peppers fajitas (usually it’s bomb) the shrimp were not deveined, it was over cooked, very dry and didn’t have much flavor. I was so disappointed. I ordered a mango chamoy margarita and it was basically a smoothie barely any tequila in it. But the worst part was the service! Our server was so rude he forgot to bring half the things we asked for. The other server checked on us and I told her about my meal being dry and she was also very rude. She carried on to argue and defend the cook that’s been there for 8 years instead of relating my concern to our own server. We were then charged for a meal that was not edible. Don’t waste your time or money on this place you will be disappointed!! ZERO STARS!!!

Waiter is slow. Food was horrible. Trying to stay local for mexican food but not going to happen wirh this place. Pricey for lame food

Just like the majority of the Mexican restaurants here in Camarillo - The absolutely suck! They charge way too much money the portions are small and the quality of the food is very poor. They need to learn something from the Los Angeles Mexican restaurants proper priced big portions and super good taste.

Alright so first time visiting this restaurant and it's your regular Mexican style food. The food was good nothing too special about it but I mean it was bad tasting it's just tour classic food. Now the pricing it's ridiculous high for a family of 4 was over $120 yes you seeing this correct $120 for mexcian food.........way too expensive and like I said nothing special about it. Would I recommend this place ? NO I WOULDNT. will I come back again? NO I WONT. if you want this type of food much lower prices and same taste go to oxnard and checkout the restaurants there good example is Lalos in Oxnard and ther in Camarillo. The reason for the 1 star review is just nothing impressive and cost too high. Oh the service wasn't good too you figured spending that much they can at least try to make it good but no they didn't. The cleaning was okay bathrooms are very very dirty.

Fajitas not so good. Comes out warm not hot like they should. Steak is really well done, almost burnt, and extremely over priced for what you get. My wife's burrito was the same, over well done meat. Service is slow, only bringing out one item at a time, not all at the same time. Maybe the seafood might be better, but won't be back to try it.

Will never visit this place again! Was verbally and aggressively confronted by a intoxicated and mentally unstable man while dining in the bar area of the restaurant. After the disorderly guest left he went to the liquor store 2 shops down, 2 ladies that were sitting next to our booth complained to the bartender about his abrasive and abusive behavior. The bartender gaslite the ladies and told them 'he was fine that he has known the guy for years". A bartender that supports and defends a intoxicated and mentally unstable person is not where I feel comfortable dinning at.
