Some very solid tacos and reasonable prices. I especially like that I can get a fish taco on a crunchy shell here. The chips and salsa are also pretty good.

Albondigas
Brent O.

Lots of people order takeout, but we ate in. Amazing service and such a great menu. My wife had Caldo and really enjoyed the veggies and protein. I had albondigas, loaded with veggies and meatballs. Also had a tamale, and I just say, the filling was just so melt in your mouth. It's a place you can pick up relax with your friends.

I'm regular customer here, I love their food but today service over the phone was very disappointing. I ordered huevos chorizo and I decided to do no pico de gallo because YOU HAVE THE OPTION ON THEIR WEBSITE to do so... also the website shows this particular dish with rice, beans. Bottom line I called the store to PLEASE, substitute the pico for green salsa ( 2oz cup) instead, and to get my dish without rice, so, they told me that I need to pay extra charge for the salsa and that rice don't come with it. ( clearly it does according to picture on the website) look at the pictures attached. It looks like team isn't properly trained, I just wanted someone to know what happed.

We tried the Carrillos in Simi... we love the one in San Fernando. Simi did not disappoint. The restaurant is cute, clean, and very inviting. As expected, the food is absolutely delicious. Our group had Menudo, Chilaquiles, breakfast eggs, and a gordita. We learned that the tortillas are still made in San Fernando and delivered fresh each day. Of course we had to take some home. The seating was very comfortable and on a Saturday morning it was not as crowded as the one in the Valley. I hope others will support this family owned business. It is absolutely delicious.

California chicken burrito
Hyd F.

I got a California chicken burrito that has chicken, guacamole, potatoes, cilantro, abundant chicken, but I got it to go and it wasn't very warm and I opened it a minute later they do put a lot of chicken in their burritos price for chicken burrito with tax was $15.55. I thought it was a little bit high. You do get a little bag of chips and salsa also. Friendly environment with nice cashier clientele.

Burnt Asada Classic Burrito
Sara Q.

Was not impressed the first time we went in. The chorizo breakfast burrito was extremely salty. A week after, my husband was craving an asada burrito. We doordashed them. An Asada Classic Burrito and Carnitas Classic Burrito. They were not good at all. Poor quality and very bland. They didn't bother to send salsas or napkins. The asada was way over cooked, burnt almost and had a lot of nerve.

Chicken Ensalada
John Michael S.

My family has been coming to Carrillo's for 30 years and it's been a true Simi Valley mainstay as far as I can remember. My Mom always loved getting the chili releno, cheese enchiladas and the Chicken Ensalda. As a result, she got me hooked as a child and even now as an adult it's always a blast to come here. Steve and the rest of the staff consistently provide wonderful service every time I've gone. Whether grabbing food to go or eating in, Carrillo's is a must visit for Mexican cuisine.

All you need is love and burritos
Youri Y.

It was a post-golf morning and my boyfriend and I were craving Mexican food. We found this little spot on Yelp in Simi and they had what we were craving: burrito and pozole. The restaurant is located in the strip mall plaza behind Panera with lots of parking. We were the only customers there on a Saturday morning so it was pretty empty. I got a full order of pozole with corn tortillas and he got a chorizo breakfast burrito. We also asked for free chips and salsa as well. I was also parched and ordered a horchata. We took our order for takeout and enjoyed it at home. I felt that the horchata kinda hit the spot but felt a little watered down. The pozole also felt a little watered down too but overall it was OK and had some good meat pieces and hominy. I loved all the toppings that came with the pozole. The chips were tough so it felt hard to crunch on. I had higher hopes because the restaurant has a 4/5 star rating but maybe it didn't meet my expectation.

Menu Board. But there is more than this.

Do they use any meat, chicken broth or lard in the rice, beans or tortillas? Looking for vegan options.

Hi! Thank you for your question! The rice has a touch of chicken base and we also use chicken stock. The beans are vegetarian, as well as the corn tortillas. Our flour tortillas and tamales are made with lard.

Is the menudo only available on weekends or all days? Reviews have stated both and most places only make it for the weekends.

Hello! We prepare our menudo every Saturday and Sunday. Whatever is left over we sell the following day. We tend to sell out but usually we will have extra. We also offer Caldo de Res, Caldo de Pollo, Pozole and Albondigas all day every day!

Food: The restaurant has a massive book with pictures as their menu. Everything we ordered was tasty. The soup dumplings were tasty and we would reorder next time.

Just a few minutes away, tucked into the corner of a shopping area next to a Target, it is easy to get to, easy to order, and available for takeout or dine-in. The menu offered several tasty-sounding vegetarian sandwiches, so I really had to spend some time deciding before I even got there. I settled on the Californian (house-marinated artichoke hearts, avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, green leaf lettuce, herb aioli) and some kettle chips as an add-on. It does come with a small green side salad (Urbane House Side Salad), with a vinaigrette dressing. The sandwich was very tasty, with plenty of vegetables, and clearly had artichokes aplenty. I ordered with extra aioli on the side, but in the end did not need it, as the sandwich was very moist as made. (I did use it as a dip for the chips - no waste here!) Quick service, good value, tasty food, clean location - for a small chain sandwich shop, very good!

Finding healthy, quick meals has been a priority, and Urbane Cafe is a good option. I was in a rush and ordered a chicken bowl. It was a wholesome meal that fit what I was looking for. My main criticism is the portion size, particularly the chicken. For a chicken bowl, I would have liked a more substantial amount of protein. To the general manager, if you're reading this: I understand food costs are high, but a little more chicken and a little more rice would have gone a long way. That adjustment would have made this a five-star experience for me. Otherwise, I'd recommend giving them a shot. I hope they take the feedback into consideration! Jerome

I knew it was good basically because anybody who comes here had to look it up. They didn't just walk by or drive by. That was the first sign I knew the food was good. Number two, when I came in they had phone orders and everybody was ordering. This was around five o'clock on a Friday night. It was packed. I waited to get a seat and then I got one. The seating area really only holds about 20 people in there. I was trying to decide between the drunken noodles and the Pad See Ew. I went with the Pad See Ew. I also got the wontons. I was told the wontons had chicken in them. I was so hungry I didn't really see the chicken, but I will say this. If I travel around and eat, that Pad See Ew is in the top five. The Pad See Ew had hearty portions, pictures below. I liked the noodles and the thickness of them. The chicken was good. Good portion size. The food came out so hot I have a picture of the steam coming out. I should have probably just asked for extra vegetables, but it was really good. I see why people come here. I just drank water, didn't have any other drinks, but the food was extremely good. Four and a half stars, which brings them up.

Not only was everything absolutely delicious like it was the first time (especially the seafood curry!) but they held my leftover food for me in their fridge while we finished cleaning out a storage unit. They get five stars for having great food, gluten-free options, and going above and beyond with their customer service. Highly recommend!
