Ventura Taco District
Ventura Taco District
Shopping
If you love tacos, you’ve found nirvana, but know that, here, exploring nirvana will take some time — Ventura Avenue’s Taco District has a lifetime of offerings (and many locals have spent a lifetime enjoying it). Small Ventura restaurants sprinkled up and down the Avenue, the offerings are ridiculous — and the real deal. Taqueria Ventura Doña Raquel has amazing fish tacos. Johnny’s Mexican Food serves an unforgettable (really) corn burrito. Angie’s Deli has a great breakfast burrito, and Taqueria Tepatitlan has some of the best menudo (a beef stew with red chilis) or albondigas soup (meatballs with vegetables) you’ll ever find. To add to the ridiculous largesse, there are taco trucks too.

The Olivas Adobe, located in Ventura, California, is an adobe built in 1841 by Raymundo Olivas. Olivas built the adobe home in 1841, and expanded it in 1849 to two stories, making it the only such building in the area. He and his wife and their 21 children lived here until 1899. It later became part of Max Fleischman's holdings (of yeast and margarine fame), and it was he who donated the land and the house to the City of Ventura. The Olivas Adobe is registered as California Historical Landmark #115 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
