CALIFORNIA CHICKEN SALAD! Wow what a excellent salad !! chicken marinade is perfect ! Really good house made dressing . Get this !
LaRusso V.

Loved eating outside and they had the best salad, the California Chicken Salad! Try it, it's big enough for two people to split. WOW this will be my go to spot for now on. The owner and staff are very accommodating.

2 hard taco combo plate
Marcia G.

Love supporting really good local businesses and this one is one we keep coming back to. Previously I've had a burger, teriyaki bowl, salad and all were delicious. This time I had the hard shell tacos with beef which was very good and so filling I barely touched the rice and beans. I love that the menu has so many options to please everyone in your party and the food is great! The owner is really nice (usually at the register taking your order) and will help walk you through the menu.

First time here and oh boy was it good! Loved the cheeseburger pastrami everyone was kind and attentive :) will be back with more people to enjoy

Fries
Peter X.

I stopped by this Burger Express place this morning to grab my lunch. I looked at their menu beforehand to see what I wanted. I saw they had a turkey sandwich so I figured I would order that. I found the place easily and there was ton of parking spots. When I walked inside, they were not busy at all and I was able to put in my order for the turkey sandwich and fries. I asked what was in the turkey sandwich and the guy working the cashier said lettuce, tomatoes, turkey and onion. So I asked for no onion, too bad it doesn't already come with bacon. I only had to wait like 5 minutes for them to make my sandwich. During that time I was just checking out their indoor seating and little bar area they have. I really like the fries here and they give you a lot. I thought the turkey sandwich was okay, it didn't fill me up and I think having bacon would've help a lot.

Bacon avocado burger. Fries

Hole in the wall. I almost turned around. So glad I didn't. Customer service was phenomenal. I got the avocado bacon burger. Price was a deal!! I was shook. Nice burger. Large helping of fries. Nice outside seating and they bring the food to you. This place rocks. I'll be back (Arnold voice)

Mexican heart attack served Keto style. No bread or no thousand Island dressing. Best deal in Simi.
John H.

Burger Express is a local treasure. The food and service are not fancy but always very good. The place is tucked away in a strip mall and parking can be a challenge at busy dining times, most of the time you can get right in. Some of the better dishes are the shrimp a la diabla, the Mexican heart attack, and the BLT. We love this place and you might too if you give them a chance.

Breakfast Burrito with egg, hash browns, and bacon
Mary F.

Great little place with great food and great service!! Looking to get breakfast on a Sunday morning and my boyfriend's son recommended the breakfast burritos from here. The place appears small from the outside but it was pretty big inside. If you dine there you place your order at the counter and they bring it to your table, however, we placed our order to go. Although it was pretty busy for a Sunday, they had it down. While in line, a nice lady took the order and gave you the order ticket and then you gave the ticket to the gentleman at the register. This made it very quick and efficient. Inside dining appeared nice and clean, they have a full bar inside, and a nice patio set up for outdoor dining. Noticed they were serving Bloody Mary's to a fairly large group seated outside. The breakfast burritos were excellent, by the way. Definitely will go back and maybe try the burgers or a bloody mary and dine there.

Chile relleno combo. Delicious!
Sarah B.

I had a Chile relleno which is my favorite, and always the way I measure the quality of Mexican food. Trust me they are authentic! Not only that but they serve you in reasonable time and my photo doesn't show the chips and salsa which I DEVOURED! The portions are generous for the price and they have a great variety. I also like going for their Mexican breakfasts and it's no problem because they have standard fare, such as pancakes and stuff-for the kids; so we are ALL happy. Finally, this is a truly locally owned restaurant.I've known the owner for thirty+ years and he is a courteous manager of his restaurant. Kind, and knowledgeable, since I met him as a waiter years ago at el Torito. If you want to support your locally owned business this is your spot. Great service and delicious foo. You can't go wrong!

Elvira's Mexican Grill - Steak and Shrimp fajitas

First time here. Nice atmosphere and welcoming staff…read more We started with chips and salsa. I appreciated that you can get a small side of guacamole. I had the Chile Relleno combo with a chicken enchilada. My wife had the steak and shrimp fajitas. The Chile Relleno was the best. It was stuffed with real Mexican cheese. Very tasty. The chicken enchilada was good, bit needed more chicken. The fajitas were tasty, but maybe not the best we've tried. Still worth getting. We left extremely full and satisfied. Our waiter was super friendly. We will be back.

Well this place is hopping! Friday night 6:10pm ish and packed! Parking is challenging but worth…read morethe frazzle! I've been hearing about how wonderful this Mexican restaurant is and I can see the community agrees! We waited about 20 minutes to be seated - not bad at all! The hostess, servers and busboys are so friendly and on top of EVERYTHING! They have a full bar, the margaritas are great! It's very loud in there so be prepared! Five of us dined and everyone loved their food! We started with shredded beef nachos which were wonderful! The chili verde, chicken enchiladas and asada plate were all a hit! I personally could not wait to order the chicken mole' enchiladas (I LOVE mole' and heard theirs was amazing) BUT THEY RAN OUT! So disappointed! That's all I wanted, never even looked at the menu! It's not even 7pm yet? Why oh why do you not have enough for the Friday night rush!!?? When our waitress came back to to tell me they ran out of it, (she was very sweet and apologetic) and she had already put everyone's order in - I had no idea what I wanted ‍ so I ordered a chicken taco which didn't come out until about 5-10 minutes after everyone else's food was served. Other than that snag (my reason for the 4 stars not 5) their food is awesome! I'm definitely wanting to come back for the mole' and highly recommend coming here!

My friends and I came here for dinner the other night and I was absolutely blown away by this spot…read more Visually, it's a stunning place and they've done a fabulous job with the aesthetic as it's the kind of place that feels like a party. Neon lights, cute signage, and overall they just did a really great job with the design and execution. There's a lot going on but it doesn't feel cheap. Ambiance is definitely A+. For dinner on a weeknight we found this spot wasn't too busy but we also came after happy hour. It was a relaxed vibe. Service was overall pretty good. I felt like all of the gals working were very very sweet and nice. Also, anytime we stopped them to ask for refills and such we got what we asked for. That's my only upgrade as since it wasn't super busy, it would have been nice for the staff to catch the refills on water or salsa on their own/more proactively but hey, it was again a relaxed lowkey night and the staff couldn't have been lovelier. I'm just curious how the service would be if they were super busy? Now on to the food and drinks. The menu was very impressive! Solid cocktail and drinks menu. I'm bummed I didn't get a cocktail but my party doesn't drink so it was more fun to get an agua Fresca with them. The guava one was good and served nicely chilled. However, next time I'll definitely get a cocktail because their drinks looked fun and beautiful. The food was definitely the standout for me. I ordered the cheese enchiladas Suizas and they were a 10/10. Not comparable to most enchiladas I've had but the sauce was fantastic and unique. I really loved these enchiladas and I'd honestly get them again. Solid flavor in the rice and beans as well. My friends also enjoyed their meal and it seemed like everyone was happy. The pricing is a little steep for Mexican food but also the ambiance and presentation make sense to me why it'd be a little more. For the three of us the bill was over $100. And that's for three mains and three non-alcoholic drinks. Normally at $33-ish a person I'd hope for at least a beer with my enchiladas, so keep that in mind. As a special occasion place or a spot to celebrate this spot is truly fantastic. I honestly loved my meal so much that even with the price point I'd rush back and bring more friends because this spot is vibey. Nice staff and a cute spot to diner, 5 stars in my books given the quality, taste of the food and the overall experience.

First time we went to this establishment mariachi local Grill and Cantina is hands-down bomb ass. I…read morerecommend this place to anyone. The tacos are off. The hook and portions are great. You don't go home feeling hungry. The staff was stupendous. It was a great evening and a nice place to check out for the first time we will be back if you guys want great tacos great salsa and the drinks are unbelievable and I think it's reasonably priced B V Simi Valley CA

If you want a legit breakfast burrito, Fast N Fresh is where it's at! Got the Meat Lover Breakfast…read moreBurrito that included both bacon and sausage along with eggs, cheese and potatoes. They do not skimp! My burrito was quite hefty and included a hearty amount of the ingredients. Paired with the smoky spicy red salsa, this is one burrito that will last all day long - it's great for two meals! Aside from being a considerable amount of food, it was absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Also, the cheese pull is quite impressive! Got it for take out and haven't dined in yet, but I will definitely be back!

Pros: Good parking. Accessible and available…read more Clean establishment Food came reasonably fast. Chips were great Corn tortillas seemed fresh and homemade. Service was a below average. Didn't really feel welcomed. I got as much welcome as from a fast food establishment, which isn't all too bad...just doing the job. Cons: Food was bland (breakfast burrito and Huevos con Machaca) compared to Mission Burrito. Salsa, came in plastic bottles red or green, were very weak. Overall, price for food was average. But considering what we didn't get which is flavor, I thought price was too much. Not sure if I'd return, but only if someone pays for my meal first which I'll gladly reimburse if they made it better. 3 stars is average, so I'd give it a 2.5 at most.

Second time here and Maria's just keeps getting better…read more What I really like about this place is how consistent it is. The food tastes fresh, homemade, and not overly greasy like a lot of Mexican spots can be. You can tell they actually care about what they're serving. The portions are generous without being over the top, and everything comes out hot and well prepared. I've tried a couple different things now and nothing has disappointed. The flavors are spot on and feel authentic. The staff has been helpful and patient both times, which makes a big difference, especially when you're deciding what to order. Service is friendly and you don't feel rushed, which makes it a great place to sit and enjoy your meal. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. It's one of those places that feels like a local favorite once you find it. Definitely becoming a regular stop for me

The portion size of the fajitas themselves was very large and well prepared. Service was okay.

Seating was comfortable and they have booths, chairs and an outside patio. My Fajitas did not come with cheese and they charged an additional $1.50 which I think is fair, but cheese should come with the dish. We enjoyed the food and will come back.
