Adobe Cantina is a beautiful Mexican restaurant in Agoura Hills. There is plenty of parking along the surrounding streets, plus a few spots right on the restaurant property. We've been here several times for both lunch and dinner, and it has consistently been great in both food quality and service. They have a large selection of food as well as a pretty extensive drink menu, so there's something for just everyone. We came around 5:30pm for an early dinner today. It wasn't too crowded yet, so our party of three was seated right away. Our waiter brought us water and the chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. He was super attentive throughout the meal, keeping our water filled and checking on us several times to make sure we got everything we wanted. We ordered the sizzling beef fajitas and pork quesadillas. Both came out in about 10 minutes. Everything was fresh, tasty, and generously portioned. The fajitas arrived sizzling, and the pork quesadillas were packed with cheese and meat. It's always a pleasure dining here. The atmosphere is relaxing, the service is consistently warm. Definitely a nice neighborhood spot when you're in the mood for Mexican food while watching the games of the day on their screens. read more

Adobe Cantina - Fajitas chicken and shrimp - Mexican Near Me - Agoura Hills, California

I have lived here my entire life, and only just recently tried this restaurant. I am obsessed. I'm a sucker for a good sit-down Mexican restaurant and this is the place to be. Service is always excellent and fast, everything I've ordered has been amazing, their chips and salsa are some of the best I've had, and they have the absolute BEST Diet Coke in the area. Even better than McDonald's Diet Coke. If it wasn't frowned upon, I'd go just for chips, salsa, and Diet Coke. The outdoor patio is a really nice place to be, and I've gone to a couple of big birthday celebrations here and even with large parties, service was still fantastic. I'm really picky with my steak, I oftentimes find it to be flavorless or too fatty or something. Their steak is so flavorful and tender! I love getting the street tacos with steak. Chicken is not my most favorite, but theirs is actually very good and also very flavorful and tender! I will say, it's a bit on the expensive side but what isn't expensive these days? I'm very glad to have discovered this place and part of me wishes it wasn't so close by! I'd prefer my clothes to still fit me, haha. read more

My favorite chips and salsa! Delicious quesadillas with peppers. Refreshing large margaritas! Great prices and beautiful outdoor patio. read more

Surrounded by garden patios, Adobe Cantina is the heart of Conejo Valley's Mexican food scene. Whether you're in Thousand Oaks or Agoura Hills, this spot is your next weekend favorite. Experience traditional Mexican cuisine--fresh, vibrant, and passed down through generations. Unique flavors! Authentic recipes! The indoor dining area was a little dark so we decided to eat outside. They do have a full bar. I love the patio garden dining area, which is a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. We started off with The Adobe Margarita, which was so refreshing and chips & salsa was good. It has a bit of spice! The WOW factor is this Molcajete (for 2) with an amazingly delicious guajillo pepper red sauce, which I put on EVERYTHING!! It comes to the table bubbling hot! Although, I would have liked for it to stay bubbling hot a little longer. It's filled with steak, chicken, shrimp, panela cheese, fresh cactus leaf, chorizo and grilled onions. I would have preferred for the onions to not be on top (there was a lot of them) and for the steak to show more instead of being buried. I would have liked a better presentation (from other Molcajetes I've had). The Cochinita Pibil is a slow-roasted Yucatán-style pork that's wrapped in banana leaves. I would have liked the banana leaves for presentation. It was tender but nothing about it wowed me. Service was a little slow even though it was not too busy. We didn't get our water refilled throughout our whole meal. And, it took awhile to get our check. read more

Adobe Cantina - Blackened Ahi Tuna Tacos & Picante Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Agoura Hills, California

This place was shockingly good all around! I tried their Caesar salad they're iced tea and their fajitas, not very Mexican inspired dishes, but the overall experience was very good. They seem to be a little bit backed up with one guy trying to manage too many tables and so the service was a little bit slow but once we got his attention it was completely fine. I definitely will come back here with a bunch of friends to share the experience. The overall ambience for the place has a very inviting open feel, I think the pictures that I saw online ahead of time do it justice. This place is also located a little bit by itself which I feel adds to a more relaxed feel, definitely a destination spot but not a far walking distance to the local shopping and eating center. read more

I live on the east coast, however, my son, who lives in Agoura Hills got married this past weekend. Since he has lived in the area for a few yers, we have eaten at Adobe Cantina many times. The food here is EXCELLENT, the prices are very fair and this is all topped by exceptional service. We had my son and daughter in laws wedding welcoming dinner (rehersal dinner) and then brought immediate family there a few days later to celebrate our other two sons' college graduation (see pic). We will definately be there when we visit my son and daughter-in-law! read more

All this food was wonderful, I had the lamb shank and it was absolutely amazing. It's hard to find a great sit down Mexican food in this world of trucks and fast Mexican food but the ambiance and everything was simply satisfying!!!! Thank you! read more

We brought a party of 11 for a Mother's Day evening dinner and I must say that the food was really good. The service wasn't that great and I think it's possibly because they were overextended on Mother's Day trying to take care of everybody. Our Server was a college age person that got the drinks wrong, we asked for straws he forgot to bring them back, ask for water that took 20 minutes when we got the bills, they were all mixed up. My Wife and I are going to come back again just the two of us because we thought the food was really good and I'm sure that it will be much better next time with the customer service. read more

Stopped by Catina late night while catching up with friends from out of town and even made a few new ones along the way. Such a fun, relaxed vibe for winding down the night. Drinks were on point, and the late night snacks hit the spot. Must come try the molcajete ! And my friend Gerry says that's a electrical mezcal ! Outside seating with warmers , just a Perfect place to hang out, chat, and enjoy good company. Will definitely be back! read more

So my husband and I have been coming to this place for 26 years now. I remember when they used to have their nitro hot sauce that's how long we've been coming. This was a spicy barbecue sauce that my husband used to always get Four for his pulled pork plate. Unfortunately, they don't have that spicy barbecue hot sauce anymore, but they still have amazing food. This place has always been where we come for good food and exceptional staff. The atmosphere here is absolutely beautiful. You feel like you're tucked away and on vacation especially when you eat outside. Both patios are beautiful. read more

As close as we can get to feeling like we are in Mexico, while sitting on a patio in Agoura. We come with our dog and he highly recommends the fajitas, the fish tacos, chicken enchiladas and the shrimp tequila. A relaxed, perfect outdoor vibe; management and crew are always welcoming. When family is in town, it's our stop-over on the way back from the beach. I'm happy to see how busy they are and I love the fact that we can bring our pup when we go there. read more

Adobe Cantina transports me--pulling me from the winding hills of Agoura and dropping me gently onto a sun-washed patio that feels pulled straight from the heart of Mexico. It's got that effortless charm, like you've wandered into a friend's courtyard back home--dry breeze in the air, umbrella overhead, a cold beer kissing your lips. It's familiar in the best way. The chips and salsa? As they should be--bold, textured, unapologetically fresh. None of that watered-down, food-colored filler passed off as salsa in lesser joints. This has body, bite, and soul. My go-to is the Caesar Chicken Salad, and yes, there's a reason. It's a quiet homage to its roots--born not in Rome, but in Tijuana, by the hands of Italian immigrant Caesar Cardini on the Fourth of July, 1924. There's something poetic about enjoying it here, in a setting that feels like an open-air ode to cross-cultural flavor. The house margarita, on the other hand, missed the mark. Lacking real lime, real pulp, real punch--it leaned too heavy on the mix and not enough on authenticity. But I'll give them a pass this time. The salad held its own, the salsa brought me back, and sometimes, that's all you need. Next round, I'll keep it simple: a crisp "chela", just like they do it back home. read more

Went there for taco Tuesday, 3 couples. So the chips and salsa was at our table within 2 minutes. And was really good enjoyed by all. Everyone except for 2 of us had skinny margaritas and enjoyed them. So I had chicken street tacos, small corn tortillas. Wifey had fish tacos 2 couples had tacos and the third couple had chicken quesadilla. The service was excellent. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. and everyone felt that way. no one had the bad thing to say.the outside patio is very nice place to enjoy your meal. read more

What a great "old school" Mexican Restaurant! We enjoyed a beautiful night on the patio with our favorite waiter Pablo, who even gave us a few more tortillas to take home for the Fajitas I couldn't finish! I love the steak/chicken combo and it was sizzling as Pablo served it. Janet went for a cheese enchiladas, chicken taco and house salad aka "Juanita's Combo"! Too full to get a dessert tonight, but the churros with ice cream, flan or chocolate lava cake with ice cream are awesome!! read more

Adobe Cantina - Mexican Near Me - Agoura Hills, California

Adobe Cantina is colorful dog-friendly Mexican spot off the 101. There are two large patios with plenty of shade and a large indoor seating area. We were seated right away and our server brought out complimentary chips and salsa. The complimentary salsa was a good mild, chunky salsa. The menu has lots of fish/seafood options which is what I was craving. My boyfriend and I ordered the regular ceviche for an appetizer and shared the blackened ahi tuna taco plate (2 tacos) for dinner. Good quality fish and each taco was large so we were happy that we shared. They also had quite a few lobster options and the table near us got the Molcajete, which looked really good too. read more

We had just moved into a lovely neighborhood in Agoura Hills and on our first night there happened upon a long established (over 30 years) hidden gem family Mexican restaurant called the Adobe Cantina that we'd like to very highly recommend to you. Excellent staff, amazing margaritas, and wonderful food served hot off the griddle. Everything was freshly prepared and delicious. There is a lovely outside terrace with fountain. And there were absolutely NO negatives!!! Our waitress Leslie was incredible and the bartender was also amazing. Maitre'd Rocco welcomed us warmly and saw to it that our first experience there was memorable. We love the Adobe Cantina! It's absolutely worth discovering and enjoying. read more

Good food, great service, and terrific ambiance. Sit out on the patio and enjoy the sunset.

We had 9 of us together for dinner the night before our reunion and we decided on Adobe Cantina. What a great night we had there!!! We sat outside in their beautiful courtyard. The food was fantastic (we were wishing we could go back the next night). The servers were attentive and so nice and the cocktails were the best!! Thank you Jose and your staff for a wonderful evening! read more

Was craving Mexican food and on the way home stuck in traffic on the 101 and luckily found the Adobe Cantina! Happy to wait out traffic while having a delicious dinner. We were quickly seated after immediately being greeted by the majority of the staff. Everyone was extremely kind and welcoming. Our server was very attentive throughout our dinner too! Plenty of seating inside and outside on their fun patio. We weren't in the mood for drinks but they did look delicious. Instead we started out with chips and salsa and each of us ordered our own fajitas. I loved the chips and salsa as the salsa had a slight kick and the chips were nicely salted and crispy. My friend ordered the steak fajita and I had the chicken fajita. Mine was so large we definitely could have shared. I had to take half home and honestly it was almost two more meals. We loved our fajitas as they were marinated with the best marinade and cooked to perfection. The onions and peppers were addicting. We received warm tortillas, 3 each, and ate them all. We were so full but the meal was so good. Definitely would go back again to try more on the menu. read more

Adobe Cantina - Taco salad - Mexican Near Me - Agoura Hills, California

We love this place! It has two patio options-one is more enclosed and cozy and the other is more outdoorsy-shaded by umbrellas and trees. The chips are homemade and always crisp and delicious. Our favorite appetizer is the queso fundido with chorizo-dinner is not complete without it! You have to try the Molcajete-one is enough for multiple people, although you might not want to share once you taste it. read more

Our experience as a group of 30 people, was beyond fantastic. First off, Jose the manager and his staff were super helpful from the start. They transformed the patio area into a delightful space for our party!! It was clean, decorative and comfortable. Our guests enjoyed every moment and our hard working and friendly server, Lesley, was a true professional. She went above and beyond and was happy while at it !! Our guests were very surprised by how delicious their choices from the menu ALL were! The appetizers were a big hit, and the short wait time for the dinner, all 30 of us were completely satisfied !! Adobe Cantina made my friend's 70th birthday party a top notch celebration. I'm truly grateful to the entire staff and especially for the chefs , we would recommend Adobe Cantina to everyone!! read more

The atmosphere was great, not too loud, so that you could hold a conversation. You were able to choose your table when you walked in. There was outdoor seating on both sides of the building, which was nice to have a couple of options, although we chose to sit in doors with it being so warm out. The server was very attentive, answered our questions regarding the menu items, and kept my water coming. Most important is that you do receive chips and salsa while you wait. Wasn't the best chips and salsa, but it's nice to have something to munch on while waiting to order. As for the food, my cousin didn't seem to care for her shrimp cocktail. It was made more like cerviche, and she commented that it wasn't very flavorful. I think it probably would depend on the person trying out it. She did, however, love the seafood burrito. She said it was very filling and a nice blend of flavors. As for my meal, I expected more flavor from the chicken fajitas. The chicken didn't taste as if it was seasoned, so most of the flavor I received was from the peppers and onions alone. There were also a few bitess of the chicken that we over cooked. The rice that accompanied the fajitas was nice and light. The portion was plenty to have leftovers. I chose the flour tortillas, but you do have the option of corn. Can't say that I would be on this side of Mexico again to stop in again, but I'd definitely suggest you checking them out of you are !! read more
