This campy 1950s style diner on Main has become a Ventura landmark. Pop in for a root beer float, raspberry-lime rickey, hot fudge sundae or one of many classic American food favorites.

Busy Bee Cafe

On the Westside, at 176 N. Ventura Ave., just around the corner from Main Street. A Mexican food institution in Ventura. Try their famous shredded beef burritos prepared "three way"—meaning with beans, rice, and cheese!

Johnny's

One of the best Indian restaurants in Ventura. Dinner will set you back about 20 dollars a person.

Taj Cafe

Small restaurant near the beach that serves up very fresh, tasty sushi.

The Sushi House

This is the best little pizza shack in town. It's perfect after surfing or hanging out at the beach. Also, the guy there will talk to you like he's known you for years. The pizza is thin crust style, and is very good.
