Dominick's Italian Restaurant

Carrie Stracke

Dominick's Italian Restaurant is a hidden gem in Oxnard! 🍝 Nestled on Oxnard Blvd, this cozy spot offers a delightful atmosphere perfect for both solo diners and families.

I ordered the Margherita pizza and it was divine - crispy crust, fresh basil, and just the right amount of cheese! The service was impressively fast, making it a great choice for lunch.

Don’t miss their wine selection; it pairs beautifully with any dish. Plus, the warm, romantic vibe is perfect for a date night. Reservations are recommended, as it can get busy, but it's well worth the visit! 😊

This review is best told by copying the text messages my husband and I were constantly sending to our family chat all throughout our meal.🤩😆 "Can't help myself from repeatedly texting you guys.
It's sooo good.
Best bleu cheese dressing I've ever had." "Unintentionally hip, the best kind.
🥰" "The pizza! Perfectly thin w crisp edges.
The sauce is perfect, not to tart, a wee-bit sweet, thick but not overly saucy.
The ingredients are so fresh and delicious." "And now, le pièce de résistance ...
the cannoli ...
just omg." "We'll have to do a bday dinner here some time." "I swear I thought I was going to see Lady and Tramp sharing a plate of spaghetti in the alley when we walked out 🤣"

First time visit on a Sunday around 5pm and it was a nice time to arrive.
There’s parking behind the building & plenty of seating inside.
The food was delicious! Mood lighting for a romantic dinner if you would like to take a date there.
My husband and I got two appetizers, one entrée to share, the dessert cheesecake, a side salad and two club sodas- We spent around $80.
It was a nice, clean restaurant.

I only order eggplant parmesan the last visit I ate in this visit I took it home, this is the 2nd time this cook made my eggplant and it was so bad I had to throw it out it was terrible, the last chef did not put all the ricotta cheese in my eggplant dish.
Do not order the egg plant unless you make sure it's prepared correctly.
Look at the pictures it was Green crunchy and tasted like catus not eggplant pieces were about 3/8 in thickness horrible.
The best part of my meal was the bread.
