    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.

    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.

    California chicken burrito

    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.

    Chicken Ensalada

    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.

    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.

    Good food, great service, and a fairly quiet ambiance make a great local spot for lunch.

    This is their idea of a carne asada plate. Very dry and no flavor

    I love the food here. But I usually only buy the tortillas, that's only because it's expensive for Mexican food.

    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!

    I'm not sure what's going on with our usual go-to Chinese restaurant in Newbury Park, but after a…read moreyear and a half absence from getting takeout from them, they don't appear to be open. Their voicemail message continues to say "temporarily closed." So I started searching closer to home, which is a challenge because I don't usually view any Simi Valley restaurant as being worthy of our patronage... yet, I searched anyway. I found Bao Su on Yelp, so we decided to give them a try based on other Yelper reviews. Bottom line is that my husband and I were incredibly impressed with their food, not to mention, happy that it is so much closer. We ordered the following (takeout): Shrimp Fried Rice Shrimp with Lobster Sauce Szechuan Style Eggplant Sizzling Chicken Mongolian Beef I had a bit of a problem deciphering their menu because there weren't a lot of details as to ingredients, so I took chances and prayed they were dishes we've had before. Everything was delicious, plentiful and mostly recognizable... with the exception of the shrimp with lobster sauce. That was more soup-like and watered down from what we're used to, but it was still really good. All dishes were loaded with protein and vegetables, well seasoned and sauced, and textures were soft or crunchy, just as we knew them to be... and just as we loved them. We've since ordered from them again, and they were (very happily) consistently delicious. We are sooooooo happy to now have a LOCAL Chinese restaurant that we can trust and enjoy. We may even dine there and not do the takeout thing for a change. (I really would like to ask them what some of their other dishes are on the menu cuz I would like more options, truth be told. However, if the dishes above are the only ones I would ever choose to order, I'm fine with that, too.)
