five star review by Prudhomme S:

Always delicious food and service. This locally-owned restaurant is a Victoria tradition for good food. We had the cheese enchiladas and beef fajita wrap. Yum! The chips and salsa were a great start to the meal. Just the right amount of spice! Try the Ventura’s chips for something different.

We were visiting from out of town, and Ventura was recommended.

Ventura was busy on a Saturday night, but we were quickly seated. Service & food were both outstanding. I highly recommend the quesadilla rolls. Will come back.

Me and my husband love this place we recently tried the quesdillas rolls the chicken ones and they were honestly so delicious and light and the breading is fluffy and crispy. The tamales are super delicious and also the loaded carne guisada fries are seriously good

Came here after local recommendation and a review that said best Mexican food anywhere. Got the tacos and the rolled quesadilla. The food was fantastic. They make the shells in house and you can taste it. Service was awesome as well. Highly recommend
