BJ's Fish & Chips

No, it's not the same at BJ's Brewery. The fish and chips there are probably up there with Fresh Catch (in Oxnard), and I'm so glad there's a place that's semi-nearby where I can get some good fish and chips. Their clam chower is also excellent - and not from the can!

Who knew that I could eat an entire meal without meat? I went there a year ago and I just love their vegetarian sandwiches. They also have a lot of other vegan meals like salads (duh), soups, and veggie burgers.

This is kind of like a fast food Japanese restaurant and it's pretty good. I had the curry rice bowl the time I was there and I thought it was good. This place will not break your budget, however, I probably would not buy sushi there since Visalia is pretty far from the Ocean!

I love you Tony! The last thing I had there was the Jenny roll, which doesn't have any rice in it. It was actually a butterflied, large sheet of calamari, stuffed with salmon, cream cheese and avocado (if I remember correctly), dipped in tempura and deep fried. IT IS SOOOO GOOD!

I had their kids meal and it was so cute! They have a limited selection of sushi, but they have every kind of Japanese noodle dish you can imagine as well as various meats/veggie on sticks. It's such a cute place!

Their lunch special is really good and if you like Korean barbeque, I think this is the only place in Oxnard.

Who's down for all you can eat all you can eat fish and chips? Cuz if it's Tuesday, you know I am! I let myself down, I let my co-workers down, and I let my firm down -- because on all you can eat Tuesday, I could not finish half of my first round. I have never had fish and chips this good and many of the regulars there can tesify.

This place is really good and the happy hour kicks ass! During happy hour, I got a personal pizza for like $3 and it was good. If you visit the Oxnard location, it's one of the brewery locations.
