Danny M.

My wife and I decided to take the easy way out instead of cooking dinner at home, so I picked up some food from Carrillo's Mexican Deli on Sherman Way in Winnetka, California. I went with my usual to start a grande with chicken and no tomatoes, since I have acid reflux and can't have tomatoes. I ordered the chicken tostada grande because, aside from the pico de gallo, there aren't supposed to be any other tomatoes in the meal. I also ordered some hard-shell chicken tacos for my wife over the phone and picked everything up on my way home from work. I always seem to get heartburn when I eat from here. I usually tell myself it's worth it and assume it's just because I'm eating more than I should but the food is just too good to stop. This time, though, I looked down at my tostada and noticed some red specks. When I took a closer look, I realized it was tomato mixed in with the chicken. Some restaurants cook their chicken with tomatoes, and that's a big problem for me. So I went back to the restaurant to ask for a refund since I can't have tomatoes in my food. When I got there, I asked if they put tomatoes in the chicken aside from the pico de gallo. At first, they said no, but then one of the employees checked with the cook, who confirmed that they do cook the chicken with tomatoes. I explained that I have acid reflux and can't have tomatoes at all otherwise, I end up coughing all night and my sleep is completely ruined. They weren't hesitant to give me a refund once they realized the mistake. They also suggested that next time I order, I should clearly mention that I can't have any tomatoes so they can make sure my food is prepared accordingly. I agreed and said I'd do that. Unfortunately, these days you can't always assume something is tomato-free just because it's not listed on the menu. At most places I go, even if tomatoes aren't mentioned, I still have to ask just to be sure. Carrillo's is still an excellent choice if you're looking for wholesome Mexican food. But for anyone with dietary restrictions, you really need to double check seriously double check that your order doesn't include anything you can't eat. I would still recommend this place if you're in the area. The restaurant is what you would expect for the ambience. It is well decorated and inspired by the Mexican culture. The parking lot is something else it has limited parking, but I'm usually able to find something there when I get there as it shares a parking lot with other stores . Nevertheless, you should try it out if you're in the area .

Carne asada burrito
Vijay C.

Hopped in for a quick lunch here on my way back from the Reagan library. It's in a busy shopping plaza in simi valley. You order at the counter and if you are eating there, you take a seat in the dining room and they bring the food to you. The service was lovely, the seating was spacious and clean, and the burrito I ordered was massive and filling. Would def recommend

Shredded beef vs what I ordered asada
My4kids M.

I ordered chilaquiles without meat and they made it so complicated as tho I ordered something from outter space so I changed it to asada nachos and got shredded beef nachos. Not to mention the cashier is so mean to the young server. The young girl server was so friendly and helpful but I won't come back here.

It's supposed to be a Red Chile Beef and bean, but I received a Red Chile Pork with rice only.
Gustavo G.

I stopped by and purchased a Red Chile Colorado Beef and bean burrito only. I received a Red Chile Pork with rice only. When I called to complain about the error they did, I was asked to go back and return the burrito. I was told that they are only taking me as a courtesy. In addition, I was told that all burritos come with rice and beans. I mentioned that I understand that and that I made it clear what I wanted. To finish things, I was told that they don't do their burritos like the customer wants. They do them as they are per order. I then asked for a refund and was told that they had already closed all the transactions. Violet told me that I would have to return tomorrow and see if the manager would even give me a refund. She still had the nerve to tell me she provides excellent customer service. Grrr.... BEWARE OF COMING HERE.

Chicken & Shrimp Tacos
Larissa M.

Carillos will always hold a special place in my heart as it is super nostalgic for me. I've been coming here for at least 20 years. Their menu has changed over the years and they have added so many items. They have family pack specials as well if you want to use them for a party. My go to item is their hard shell chicken tacos. They hit the spot every single times. They also have a great shrimp cocktail for $16.95 and it's huge!! I don't come here as often as I should due to now working from home but it's my favorite lunch spot.

Order a plate of garlic shrimp and this is what was served. Might as well have ordered a whole garlic clove instead of the shrimp. Shrimp was over cooked and had a rubbery texture.

Pozole / Soup sizes
Mayra G.

Absolutely delicious. Authentic Mexican food with so much love in every bite. This is the BEST POZOLE I've had in the valley. Hand made tortillas. Yes there is a wait time but it's well worth it.

You can watch them make the sandwiches in front of you. The ingredients are fresh! Our go to is #10: pork banh mi. Today was the first time we ate it right away! The bread was perfectly toasted and had a nice, crunchy bite. The pork was still warm. The veggies were fresh and crunchy! It hit the spot. So good!! We usually order to eat with friends or pack for a trip, and they hold up well. The price for #10 was $10.25, but on the receipt it said $11.25. plus extra surcharge for credit card. I asked about the higher price, and they said tax. It would have been clearer if they specified tax as a separate line item, but at least now we know.

They have Pho as well as banh mi sandwiches, I got a sandwich during this visit. The #10 grilled pork with mayo and all the veggies, extra jalapeños. Let me just say, perfect, excellent, tasty, yum, etc. great sandwich, packed full of flavor, bread and pork are perfect, really, really love banh mi sandwiches anyway, but this one is true to the classic. All sandwiches are also $10, so go crazy and try a couple different ones, to me nothing beats the grilled pork though. You can enter from the street, but will have to find metered parking, so just drive around back, they have a small free lot and you can enter from the rear. There are not any seats to eat there, so everything is to go, but service is quick and the guy was nice behind the counter. Go check them out, grab a lotto ticket if your into that, get some great food, support a local woman & minority owned business, not enough of them out there. Enjoy!

My husband purchased several knishes from Mort's Deli. We understood these to be meat knishes based upon how they were described and priced. After bringing them home and cutting them open, we discovered that they were not true meat knishes, but rather potato-and-meat knishes. Had the product been accurately described, we would not have purchased it. We specifically sought meat knishes and paid the corresponding price (see the receipts attached). When I contacted the store to address the issue, employee Kate maintained that the potato-and-meat knish should nevertheless be considered a meat knish. Regardless of the terminology used internally by the store, the product was not what we reasonably understood we were purchasing. The situation became even more troubling when I repeatedly requested copies of the receipts. During the course of the dispute, I was informed that the receipts were not accessible. However, the receipts were ultimately produced and later emailed to me as ordered by the police. Notably, the receipts explicitly identified the product as a "Brisket Knish" and reflected the corresponding charge. The receipts therefore became an important part of understanding how the product had been represented and sold. Rather than resolving the matter promptly and professionally, manager Gail continued to escalate the situation unnecessarily. Ultimately, Gail instigated the calling of law enforcement to the store. Two police officers responded to the scene. Following their investigation, the store was ordered by the police to produce the receipts. The police officers became involved in what should have been a routine customer-service matter. With their assistance, the receipts were eventually produced after previously being misrepresented as inaccessible. What makes this experience particularly upsetting is that my husband is severely disabled, partially paralyzed, and walks with a cane. What should have been a simple request for fair treatment escalated into an unnecessary confrontation involving law enforcement. The needless inconvenience, travel, physical burden, and emotional distress inflicted upon both my husband and me were unfair and unjustifiable. As loyal customers, we found the entire experience shocking and disturbing. We sent the store owner an email detailing the incident but the owner never responded.

I was intrigued when I saw a spot that I had never heard of with a good yelp rating, I had to check it out. After reading a few of the reviews, and looking at the photographs I was sold. The Antidote delivery was close by, but let me tell you I had difficulty finding it. I want to make sure that others are aware of the challenge because it is definitely worth it. The issue is the signage. I was confident when I walked in and told Arthur, the gentleman behind the counter, that there was no sign, indicating Antidote Delivery, he politely corrected me. It turns out that next to the "market" sign there is an exclamation mark Which shows antidote delivery. My eyes went right over it and I never saw it, as a result I found myself circling around, trying to find the correct location. Once you find it, you may be hesitant to enter thinking that this is just a liquor store. In fact, this market has been here for 25 years and they prepare a fresh submarine sandwich that is delicious. So here is what you need to know upfront, the ambience is not desirable, so plan on a takeout. But if you're looking for a local business with a fresh delicious submarine sandwich, I would give this a try. Arthur was very kind to explain that they do deliveries within 5 miles for $2.99. So if you live within 5 miles you can order your sandwich and have it delivered. It's convenient because it's also a liquor store. You can order anything else at the same time and have that included for that nominal fee. It's always nice to support local places, this feels like a family business but I didn't ask so I'm not sure. One thing I'm certain of, I will be returning.

I had the steak Diane sandwich, and at the very first bite, I could not put it down. I literally finished the sandwich in 5 mins!! The steak was made perfectly, pink, tender, moist and the most flavor!! The bread perfectly toasted, the cheese pristinely melted so every bite had that ooey gooey stretch to it! For the sides tried their Cole slaw which is probably the best I've ever eaten. It had edamame in it, the slaw was a nice flavor of sweet and savory and wasn't overpowered by the mayo. I could eat the slaw with everything! Also tried their tomato soup turkey chili---sooo good!! If I didn't know better, I wouldn't have known it was turkey because it was very flavorful. Only thing I would add to make that over the top special would be to add some extra raw onions. The fish and chips sandwich was delicious! So crispy, light and crunchy with the coleslaw to make it perfect! Of course, paired with their home made chips that I dipped in everything! Soooo perfect!

It had been a while since I visited my places in Reseda and I wanted to see if they're still as good as before. Sandwich Express did not disappoint! Back in the 80's I lived in Northridge and had a Vietnamese co-worker who was a friend and fellow foodie. He introduced me to banh mi and Sandwich Express, and I'm so glad he did! Starting with their amazing banh (baguette rolls), they're baked fresh daily. They're crisp on the outside and perfectly soft in their interior. Not too dense or thick - just the right crisp and airy bread to filling ratio that you want in a banh mi! You can also buy baguettes to take home. Back in the day they were 3 for $1! Yup, apparently I'm that old... today they're a couple of bucks, but still worth it. Sorry I failed to take pics of my sandwich when it was freshly made, I was just so excited to go back in time to this little corner of Reseda that looks like it hasn't changed! The photo shown is the next day.. and that's only HaLF of the sandwich! The lady at the counter was so sweet! Don't assume rudeness for challenges with communication. I was nice and she was kind in return. There's a language barrier and at first she was shy, but once we worked through the English-Vietnamese translations with the help of Google, I was able to ask her if they sell Kho Ga La Chanh (Chicken Jerky) - and she ran excitedly to the back and produced a sealed bag of their homemade jerky! Not the same flavor profile as the stuff I buy in San Gabriel Valley, but it's a start! I'll bring them a sample the next time I get a batch to see if they can mimic the sweet spice. Theirs is a little more "five spice" forward. I placed my order for a #1 "Dac Biet" sandwich, "extra pâté, extra veggies". That's my default sammie by which I judge all Bánh Mi and I'm here to say that even a day later, right out of my fridge it's still THE best Banh Mi in the San Fernando and Santa Clarita valleys! Bright, fresh, generously filled.. and the magic bread. I happen to know that a local chain of popular phô restaurants buys their bahn (rolls) daily from Sandwich Express to make their own sandwiches and to serve with their Bho Ko (stew)! If you're wondering for reference where my bar is set, my go-to banh mi spots in San Gabriel Valley are Bánh Mi Hue Thai and Banh Mi Hoa Phat. ~IYKYK~ What has changed at Sandwich Express? It's not just sandwiches anymore AND they have a few tables inside where you can sit down to eat! They don't have my beloved Soda Xí Muội (salted plum soda) or the lime version either. Just canned and bottled American sodas, but that's not a deal breaker. Check out the posted menu pics. Bún Bò Huě, Bò Kho.. the owner did suggest calling first to make sure these items are available on the day you want to come, but she boasts that it's very authentic! They even have broken rice dishes with grilled pork chop (Cóm Tãm Súòn)! I read in another review that the original owners sold. I don't know if this is accurate or when it happened.. but I didn't see the older people that were often in the kitchen so it's possible! Back to the changes - they have desserts now, too! They also cater! What?!? No longer cash only, they accept Visa/Mastercard. I'm so glad we stopped! They still hold the #1 spot in the area. Convince me otherwise!
