Overview

El Chilito is located at 733 South Oxnard Boulevard. The Santa Clarita Valley Signal's 2025 guide to the Oxnard Taco Trail describes a menu of caldos del mar (seafood soups), tostadas and tacos, and highlights its tacos gobernador: corn tortillas filled with shrimp and jack cheese and finished with a spicy sauce.

Visit Oxnard also lists El Chilito in its taco guide, where it is grouped with drinks spots, suggesting the restaurant is as much a place for micheladas and cocktails as for food.

Taco gobernador

In its common form, the taco gobernador is made with shrimp sautéed with onion, chile and tomato, then folded into a tortilla with cheese and griddled until the cheese melts. Sources do not give El Chilito's founding date or owners.
