The food was fresh and full of flavor, the staff was welcoming, and the service was quick. I'll definitely be coming back for the tacos and homemade salsa! read more

They have counter service for traditional Mexican food. Vibrant bold flavors. They are known for their carnitas, tacos and tamales. We picked up tamales: pork, chicken, sweet corn and chile cheese. My favorite is the pork. Don't forget their enchilada sauce to put over them! Perfect for dine in or takeout. We took it home for a get-together with family. read more

I paid over 26 dollars for a chili relleno and enchilada combo with a soda - the food was terrible and i asked for a little chips she said $2. never again this place. read more

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 . read more

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 read more

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.

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. read more

Honestly. I haven't eaten here in a long time but I do buy my masa here for tamales and it never disappoints.

Yummy! The best Mexican breakfast in the valley. They have the huevos Mexicanos which is amazing and get it with flour tortillas and a bag of chips omg so good! I also have had the ham and egg burrito before the breakfast burrito they have array of selection too and so good! For lunch opt for their special called the George Lopez Supreme which is a choice of meat and beans and rice and sour cream with a wet sauce on top this a is a Burrito! read more

The service was great but the food was HORRIBLE!!! Disgusting! And not up to par. I ordered pozole which is one of my favorites. The pozole smelled foul- way too meaty and actually had very little meat and a ton of hominy. The so called 'fresh' tortillas were not fresh - they were premade, reheated and broke apart as soon as I tried rolling them. I do not recommend Carrillos- there are too many other places in the west San Fernando Valley I will not be going back read more

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. read more

haven't been in a few years (used to live nearby) shops gotten a bit smaller but the food is still top notch.

Definitely old style Mexican food. Almost everything is good on the menu. I highly recommend it for a no-frills location.

Their soups are good and service is good and quality of food is consistent . We have been coming here for many years and always feel we get good value for our money!! We really like the carnitas plate and the chile relleno with sauce and cheese and their chips and salsa are delicious and not too spicy read more

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. read more

Looking to make your own tamales than make sure you order and pick up your dough from this location. Have tried many other places but their freshly ground and mixed dough is outstanding. You can also purchase fresh handmade corn and flour tortillas! They also serve a variety of burritos, soups and other Mexican deli items. Price also are comparable to large super markets.support family owned business. read more

Ordered 2 large Pozole's to go. When we got home the pozole was all hominy and no meat inside both orders. If you don't have all the ingredients in the kitchen? Don't advertise that you have pozole. Very disappointed with what we didn't receive inside both orders. "Where the meat"? SMH! read more

I love this little restaurant. my family always gets tamales here for Christmas. The chili rellenos are so so yummy; I love em. It's nice to see people making tortillas. The people are soo sweet and Larry and Larry jr. are so helpful read more

The pozole here is my favorite. Their tamales and home made salsas are also the greatest. Definitely a valley staple.

Ordered to go, I've eaten here many times in the past, has to be over 10 years since I've been here. Usually get the burritos or carnitas. Decided to try something different. I got the chile relleno, I was not impressed. I actually think they didn't cook the chile fully, it's was really tuff and had to get a steak nice to even cook through. The cheese enchiladas were made with their homemade tortillas. Which in my opinion, are way too thick. The flavor was good with both items, they just need to be better at the cooking process. The shrimp cocktail was on point. So delicious, with a good amount of shrimp and avocado. My daughter had the taquitos which she loved and Cleaned her plate. It's a little hole in the wall place. I have to retry the burritos, those were always my favorite. read more

Great place to get a great meal and with handmade Tortillas even better. They offer great quality food and fresh water's are always refreshing. read more

Service to order is soooo slow. We stood in line for 10 minutes behind 1 person. Ordered menudo that we waited 20 minutes for. The least they could do is not charge for chips & salsa to make up for the wait. read more

Food is great. I always get the Posole or Chiliquiles however the people here are rude and unprofessional and unorganized. If I eat in person, no problem, but if I order in Advance or thru GrubHub, the food is NEVER ready when you pick it up and have to stand there and wait forever. read more

So disappointed in this spot. We are having a small Christmas this year because- Covid. So since I didn't make tamales due to our house being just 3 people, we decided to order from carrillos. My mom called last week to confirm they were still taking orders. They said yes, up until Wednesday and they quoted her $32/dozen. So she ordered ahead for a 1pm pick up for today (Christmas Eve/Mexican Christmas). I showed up to pick up the order and they tell me that they don't have part of my order anymore: (6cheese tamales). I was confused because we ordered ahead to pick up at 1pm today. The girl went to the back and they somehow scraped up 6 cheese tamales that were cold, I was fine with it as I can warm them here at home. I ended up also ordering a lb of carnitas and a dozen corn tamales to add to our Christmas Eve menu. Welp, they charged me $36/dozen for tamales, not $32 as quoted, and they charged my for Carnitas that WERE NOT PUT IN MY BAG. So there's our Christmas dinner. Super disappointed in this whole visit. Our bill came to close to $90 for everything. This is insane. At least we got enough tamales to eat, but damn, was really excited for some carnitas (since they don't serve the soft chicharrones(. :( Merry Christmas everyone read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! Wow, giant portions, fresh ingredients, perfect seasoning - where has this restaurant been all my life? I ordered 2 tamales with sauce and cheese (enchilada style), a shrimp taco, and the George Lopez Supreme Burrito with carne asada. The pork tamale was delicious and fresh, the meat was so tender. The shrimp taco was so big and full of fresh tomatoes and perfectly seasoned shrimp. I usually order about $30 worth of food at a place and end up with one meal!! This order will probably end up being 4 meals!! Found my new go to here for sure!! The horchata that came with the supreme burrito was incredible also, not too sweet and absolutely delectable. read more

5 stars all around!! I have been coming here since I was a little girl so over 30 years and I have never been disappointed! The shrimp cocktail is amazing and so flavorful!

They will ignore you if you don't look like them I was in the restaurant they helped everyone but me looking me in the eyes and just walked to the back so I stood there and called on the phone to ask if my order was ready the man answered and said how should I know if your order is ready I'm in the back well why are you answering the phone and with a terrible attitude I never got my order and will never go back read more

I ordered taquitos, tacos and the Birrio soup. Everything was really tasty. The soup came with onions,cilantro, lemon and freshly made tortillas, and was a rich tomato based stew that was excellent. Probably the best I've had. The tacos were delicious and you can tell the tortillas are homemade. The taquitos came with Pico de Gallo, lettuce and guacamole. They were also delicious. read more

Not only is it a dozen tamales for $34, while a single tamale is 2.50.... but after ordering 18 tamales (for $35), half were cold, and 3 of them were 100% rock solid frozen. Frozen with a side of frost, because you can clearly see actual freezer burn snow on them. The only reason this place was an option was because Tamales House was closed. read more
