Ventura County restaurants have officially been allowed to reopen their dining rooms at a limited capacity, and we want to provide you with the most up-to-date information. For now, we’re simply going to focus on what we know: Which places are opening back up and what to expect based on the statewide restrictions. Like you, we’re monitoring the situation day-by-day (more like hour-by-hour), and we’ll continue to update this guide as restaurants reopen in these Ventura County cities.
Currently, the majority of Ventura restaurants have not yet reopened their dining rooms. For our full guide of takeout and delivery options in the area, check out the LA Neighborhood Delivery & Takeout Directory.
