Went for dinner and dessert at 7pm on Wednesday and it was packed. Couples, families, singles. Plenty of servers on duty and the service was excellent! Nolan was our server and he was on it. Wasn't obnoxious about giving good service but on top of it. Got our orders right, was accommodating. I love the ambience. Not California dining with bright lights and high noise level. Old time sexy ambience where you think the couple in the next booth might be having an affair. I'm on the west end of Simi so I forget about Sutter's. I'll make more of an effort however. Cherry cobbler excellent. read more

Felt like going into an expensive Norm's for prime rib. Just not a good place. Food was third rate at best. Service was fine. Very dark inside. read more

Food has absolutely no flavor. Very bland. Very disappointing since reviews seem to be okay.

Used to love this place but their prices are now out of hand. Staff is always top notch.

A great, long-time, local neighborhood steakhouse. Comforting food and drinks with cozy booths. Their famous prime rib is juicy and tender. The au jus sauce was so flavorful. I forgot to take a picture of our 8 ounce Prime Rib with sides mac n cheese and steak fries- because we ate it up so quickly lol. Sorry guys, my bad! But we also had Shrimp Cocktail and Crab Stuffed Mushrooms. They were both very delicious! We sat at the bar. Go see Carrie at the bar. She'll take good care of you. Thank you all! read more

Well, the receptionist was great as we went on Valentines day. When we went to be seated, it was at a table, and I requested a booth since my wife had a back problem. We got a bit of flak from the waitress, and again, the receptionist was great and seated us in a booth. Before we got a chance to order, the waitress was very nervous and appeared as if she didn't want to be there. I ordered a Bacardi rum & with Pepsi- she said she only had Coke. Specifically, Bacardi rum, when I got the drink in a very small mug & $14.00 later, as when I took a sip and asked her are you sure this is bacardi- she stated without a doubt. You can blind fold me & I know the taste of Bacardi. When I got the bill, it stated Captain Morgan for the rum on the receipt- so much for Bacardi Then we got our dinners, and the prime rib was super tough and basically cut it with my knife, so she took it back and gave me a rib-eye steak, and that was good. We have been to this establishment several times before, and it's always been great, but after this expereince doubt I will go back; they never said anything about possibly making the bill correct. There are a lot of other steak houses than Sutters- so I will go to them instead of Sutters read more

Who would have thought there was an excellent Prime Rib place in the heart of Simi Valley that serves Prime Rib every night! Excellent cut of meat, very flavorful and tender. Loaded baked potato is a must! Also the service is excellent! What a gem! I'm a die hard Lawry's Prime Rib person, but to have this place so local and the price is good, it's a win win! read more

I went to this restaurant for a retirement seminar meeting. The place was clean with an old school steak house look. The food was very tasty. The stuffed baked potato and garlic bread was delicious and the steak was tender. The service was just ok. The waitress was very impatient and would not accommodate the food if you did not like something . Other than that is a nice place to dine at with friends and family. read more

The one good thing I can say, which is important is that the prime rib was pretty good and worth the price. The size and taste were both quite good. Now for the bad, the stuffed baked potato, the green beans and the peach cobbler were just warm, not hot. I have no idea why they couldn't serve any of these hot, but that was bad. Also, the green beans, which aren't my favorite side to begin with seemed like they were the quality of canned green beans, certainly not fresh, while the potato would have been adequate if it were hot. (Also, the prime rib was also not hot but typically prime rib isn't served piping hot like steaks, but it should have been warmer.) Also, I went there at 4 PM to get the 20% happy hour discount but when I got the bill, the waitress didn't apply it and I had to remind her and she apologized. When she returned, I noticed that she only applied the 20% discount to the prime rib but NOT the dessert. By then I was fed up and didn't bring it up and just paid and gave her an 18% tip since it is the holiday season. I forgot to mention the ambience. They played country music the entire time I was there (40 minutes) which I do NOT like and it was very dark. I had to use my iPhone light to read the menu; not good. I don't think I'll be going back. read more

First time visit for a holiday meal on Sunday before Christmas Thursday. We sat at the bar for a cocktail before we got our table. No price on any of the drinks. Ordered a Jack Daniels and Diet Coke, the Coke was totally flat which made the drink terrible. Wife ordered Moscow mule with house vodka which was Smirnoff a good house choice was like nothing we ever tasted, passed the drink around everyone thought the same. Bartender said the ginger beer was an off brand. Brother ordered Piña Colada it was delicious. Each drink was equally priced at $13.50. At dinner food was all good except my prime rib which I ordered the large cut looked like the small cut. I ordered medium and for sure it came out medium rare. I ate it just the same, no flavor to it or the sauce. The others had New York steak which were delicious and cooked as ordered. Wife ordered chicken it was dry. Stuffed baked potatoes were tasty. House bottle of wine had no price it was Josh a good tasting wine but overpriced at $37 I thought. I've had bottles of house wine in other fine restaurants for $22. Then the bill came without the 20 percent discount for their advertised happy hour deal for entre dine in between 4:00-5:00. The server said they were not going to apply it today. I asked to speak to the manager but the manager was busy cooking. The explanation was that today they considered it a holiday because it was so busy. I refused to pay the bill not to mention they gave me someone else's bill that was $100 over ours. They gave me the $22 discount I left a nice tip just the same and we were out the door not coming back and sharing our experience with others as I am here. read more

Old school steak house. This is our go-to for a quiet dinner. We usually get the large cut prime rib (two sides included). They don't nickel and dime you by charging for everything separately. The prices are is school too. Plus it's nice there's no charge for corkage. They say "if you bring your own wine, why should you be charged twice?" I can live with that. read more

Very good food, wish I could say the same about their customer service! My friends and I arrived for the early bird special which was 10% off before 5:30. Our waitress took our orders right away to make sure we got the special. End of meal checks arrived w/o any 10% off. We checked with the waitress who said she wasn't able to get orders in til 5:32! We spoke to manager and they did nothing!! Also called the next day and spoke to manager and owner - nothing! It's not the few dollars saved but just the principal! Adios Sutter's Mill read more

We decided to go for Easter as I was visiting from out of town this holiday. This place is a little dim lit, but I like it. The old fashioned style steak restaurant. Roomy booths, and comfortable. We were seated immediately, and had a great booth for our group. The service was great! I ordered a mai tai, a special of theirs, and it was delicious. They have an ample sized bar, and selections. All meals come with salad or optional. Salad was great, crisp, fresh. My boyfriend ordered prime rib and was happy. I ordered the filet, and it was scrumptious! A great cut, cooked perfectly, and the side baked potato was just right! There's nothing better when you have a craving for a steak, and receive one that hits the spot. Loved it! I also appreciated the great service, and prices weren't bad at all. I must say, I am definitely returning here when in town! Plenty of parking also. read more

We enjoyed our night out at Sutter's Mill, friendly and attentive staff, good cocktails and a nicely cooked prime rib, life is good!!

Food and service was amazing. Delicious rib eye with large stuffed baked potato. My favorite salad with blue cheese salad dressing!

Amazing neighbors hooked us up. It basically was so good that the meal changed our fortunes from horrid to ok. Yes, the steak was that good. Like it came from lake Minnetonka or the pool from cocoon. Whatever, I still about it longingly think of it like a past love. Sigh...... Anyways, the only bad was the prices we saw on the menu. Highly recommend if you can spare a bill or two on amazing food. read more

Always find myself enjoying a nice meal at Sutters Mill. The service has always been good to us whether it is a date or a holiday gathering. Better part is the no corkage fee. With a low light and quieter atmosphere, we have chosen to visit Sutters Mill as our annual anniversary meal. Not a huge fan of prime rib which they are known for but the ribeye is also very good. And the best part is the bill. Everything is affordable and will make you regret wasting twice as much at a chain steakhouse. read more

The service, and quality of food was very good. A meat eaters delight. I ordered Prime Rib with AuJus p which was perfect in texture and flavor. The baked potato was good. I think it had sour cream mixed in it. I don't like sour cream. I still ate the potato because it was still good. The green beans were fresh and delicious. Next time I visit I'm going to try a Sirloin Steak with green beans and a salad. My friend also ordered Prime Rib and he also liked it. He loved the green beans and baked potato. There was a nice ambiance in the restaurant. I'm glad a found this restaurant in Simi Valley. It's my favorite. Irasema read more

Nice atmosphere (on the dark side). However, even though it is a steak house, it was the worst steak I have ever had in my life! and I have had a lot. I ordered a sirloin steak, (medium). I could barely cut it with their steak knife., It was cooked perfectly medium, tasted absolutely delicious, yet it was sooooo gristly I had a hard time chewing it and couldn't eat it, I tried several times and each time left each chewed bite on my plate. And it was a bit hard to cut the crab-stuffed mushroom appetizers for both my brother and me. My other brother ordered a filet mignon (medium) and it was rare but he didn't complain, The waitress made several mistakes with our order, but corrected them. It was Xmas eve so maybe inexperienced help was brought it to help. I was there one other time and ordered their prime rib--their specialty. I was disappointed with the flavor. Two others in our party were satisfied with their meal, but ordered chicken or salmon. The restaurant graciously comped my meal, however, I was disappointed, especially because it was Xmas eve and I live closeby. read more

Food was great and service was extremely fast however the staff were treating us strangely and staring a lot. Not sure what it was about.

This is by far the juiciest, tastiest, delicious prime rib I've ever had! I'm new to Simi and live close by and decided to try it out for my birthday weekend! Best choice I've made! I'll definitely come back, I continuously highly recommend it to all! Love the dirty martinis and the excellent service provided by Luther! Best Prime Rib in Ventura County! I love the low lighting ambiance! read more

I didn't have time to take a picture because the food was so delicious. First time coming here and definitely won't be the last. Drinks were so yummy too! Our server was extremely nice and checked in on us constantly. They took us in 30 min before closing and didn't bat an eye like other places do. Loved it! read more

We loved the restaurant's ambiance. It is truly an old steak house vibe with private comfy booths. We thought we would eat early so it wouldn't be crowded on a Friday night. It was packed at 5:00. The food was delicious. My husband hasn't had a prime rib this good since Lawry's. I got the chicken piccata, also tasty. It was my husband's birthday and he got chocolate cake and ice cream on the house. The waitress Charisse was wonderful and we will ask for her next time. We found our new favorite restaurant. read more

Sutter's Mill Restaurant - Prime rib with macaroni and cheese and twice baked potatoe - Steakhouses Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Happy to have found this little gem nestled away in the corner of a strip mall. Service is joyful and great, with smiles on all the server's and busboys' faces. The food is so good, with the prime rib and baked stuffed potato as the star. Cooked just the way you ordered it and the price leaves money in your pocket. WHY 4 stars ?? Well, when I dine I enjoy a drink or two before dinner. That being said, they need to hire new bartenders or have someone teach the ones they have to make a good drink. If you can't make an old-fashioned, cosmo or Manhatten something is wrong at the bar. I have tried to find a good one. The only thing to do is order whiskey neat. HELP PLEASE! I love this place! read more

Took my wife here to celebrate valentines on Sunday. We were very pleasantly surprised by the decor and ambiance once we were sat in a cozy booth. Our waitress was delightful and did an amazing job. The Food was great we had and wedge salad and bacon wrapped shrimp for our appetizer and we both got the prime rib. The prime rib was absolutely delicious and they gave us both very generous cuts, much more than 12 ounces. We throughly enjoyed our evening thank you! read more

Our 54th wedding anniversary was on a Thursday (7/24). It has been a (sort of) tradition for us to have prime rib for our anniversary. This year I could not find 'anyplace' that had prime-rib on a Thursday. Even some of the best 'steak houses'. "Only on weekends" is all I got. BUT THEN!!! A suggestion...Try Sutters Mill in Simi. We DID and it was AMAZING!!!!. We arrived shortly after they opened (4 PM) and were seated immediately. We heard about the free corkage and brought a bottle of J Lohr chard with us. How cool :)) It just kept getting Better. We each ordered 8 oz. prime rib with the stuffed baked potato (absolute Must). We both had a take-home box of delicious memories. The 'un-expected' treat was..... A, no, not just..a, But the most amazing chocolate cake with a scoop of ice cream. And!... 'on-the-house'... Folk;s...It just don't get better than this. Honest! Sutters Mill made our 54th anniversary an evening to remember. Thank You Sutters Mill. Hal read more

Went in for the prime rib dip lunch special. Love the old school ambiance. Great food, great pricing. Looking forward to the next visit.
