Yolanda's Mexican cafe - Happy hour!!!!!! - Mexican Near Me - Camarillo, California

I grew up going to Yolanda's and it's such a nostalgic place and I'm always ready for that delicious bean dip with the chips. We always go for the fajitas. They are a great size and the sauce that comes with them is delicious. I love all the sides and toppings that come with it. The margaritas here are tasty too! The ambience inside is great and the service is good. read more

We had such a wonderful experience the other night for dinner- all thanks to our server Alo (Alondra). We come here at least 1-2x per month and have never had service like she provided. I have a child with allergies and she spoke to the kitchen and also checked with us to make sure the food was correct when it was served. That attention to detail and customer service is so hard to find these days. She was kind, prompt and overall did an amazing job. We will certainly be asking for her section when we return! read more

A classic Mexican restaurant. It's that familiar interior design, unlimited chips/salsa and the blended margaritas you need to go with it all. I had the balsamic salad which was pretty good. My hibiscus marg could have had more flavor, but definitely finished it. Chips are on the oily side, but still good with guacamole! Overall a decent option, especially if you're near the outlets! Stay Cheerful read more

Forever a favorite! My family has been coming to this location for years and it's always a good experience! Chips and drinks are quick to arrive and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. This time I ordered a half order of guacamole and the street tacos. The standard Yolanda's salsa is the.best. but I love that there's also a salsa bar to choose from. Servers are always on top of it, hostesses are great and the restaurant is always an inviting space. Definitely recommend for family dinners, date nights or just a casual afternoon! read more

Fantastic place ! The Mexican Food here is always an excellent meal. The service is always inviting and quick to serve. Everything on the menu has that authentic taste and large portioned size you would expect at a good Mexican restaurant. I have ordered pretty much everything on the menu and never once have been disappointed. Tonight's call was a traditional 3 entree combination plate consisting of 2 crunchy beef tacos and a chili relleno. Just outstanding. Actually so big of a plate that I couldn't finish it all. I SUGGEST trying out the hot dip too as that is a must order or get depending on the night you go. It's like a conchili bean cheese dip and it's so spicy good. I suggest going here as you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended! read more

Had the chicken fajitas and they were gross Fajitas aren't supposed to be filled with juice, it's ROASTED veggies and meat not a soup read more

Frankie is an excellent manager and we've been regulars for 25 yrs. However, after being treated poor by certain manager we spoke up which ended poorly. Our relationship with Yolandas is now over. read more

After a day of walking and shopping at the local Outlet stores we were hungry. The restaurant was busy on this Sunday evening but we were able to get a booth as soon as we walked in. The service is great and our waitress and other employees were very attentive. I ordered the burrito combo with Chile Verde, Bean and Cheese burrito, and a Tostada salad. The free chips and salsa were very good but we wanted fire hot salsa and that salsa bar had some tasty fire available. read more

Consistently great food and service. Lovely restaurants all over Ventura Co. Favorite ambiance is at their Camarillo site. Cozy family environment. read more

Yolanda's is always a great choice if you want some authentic Mexican food. Been coming to their Oxnard Harbor & Camarillo locations for years. The Manager is always so welcoming and funny. I love their quick service. Everyone is helpful and really caters to you. After the gym I wanted a quick bite and their steamed veggies are scrumptious! Their bean dip is also really good! Their chicken tacos are always on point as well and you can get them a la carte if you don't want a big meal. Highly recommend, you'll enjoy the friendly ambiance and good food. read more

Yolanda's Mexican cafe - Steamed Vegetables - Mexican Near Me - Camarillo, California

We came here with our kids and absolutely loved it. We didn't have any drinks, but it looked like they have a pretty fun bar as well. Our server was okay, but the food was fantastic -- fresh, flavorful, and enjoyed by everyone at the table. The salsa bar was super delicious and full of flavor, which was a big highlight for us. The vibe is fast, fun, and very family-oriented, making it an easy and enjoyable place to dine with kids. Overall, a great experience and we'd definitely come back. Highly recommend! read more

Great food, attentive service. Can't believe we have not stopping in before now. Old school Mexican food in a comfortable atmosphere.

We ordered take out tonight for 9 people and it was a great choice! The girl who took the phone order was very nice, patient, and repeated the whole order. She said it would take 30 min so we got there within 10min and ordered a drink at the bar, by the time we got the drink and started sipping the food was ready, and everything was correct. The margaritas are strong and delicious and they put the ice in a separate container. The Baja burrito is literally one of the best burritos I have ever had!! It was full of flavor, from the shrimp to the chicken, everything. Them don't skimp on the shrimp and they are huge delicious and cooked perfectly. The chilli rellano was good, had a mild but flavorful sauce on top. My grandmother in law had the shrimp enchiladas and loved them. The salsa was also delicious, the add green onions to it. Definitely recommend. read more

Food was good. Churros were great! But service was AMAZING! Thank you Yulianna!!!!!!!! read more

Yolanda's Mexican cafe - ENCHILADA RANCHERA - Mexican Near Me - Camarillo, California

This is a family favorite for some time now!! You can't go wrong when you eat here. Super authentic and a top tier Mexican restaurant. The salsa and chips are so good. I ordered something different this time. I went with their January special steak load queso burrito. It was amazing. Portions are big. Ambience is good. The staff really friendly, fast and they take good care of you!! Make the trip it will be worth it! read more

I ordered carnitas street tacos. They were dry and not flavorful. I can't remember what my friend ordered, but she didn't like it. The people who work here are very nice and helpful. The restaurant was dark even during the afternoon but it was clean and the seating is comfortable. read more

My To go order was luke warm. The enchiladas a La carte were cold to the touch and the bottom of the tin was cold. 3 rd time hence the Yelp review. I may have to stop ordering from them. Too expensive to be cold in arrival. read more

From the front, one would not know that this place is HUGE inside and busy. Service was quick. My friend and I asked for a booth and the hostess was nice to give us a booth for 6 people. I ordered the enchilada and tamale with rice and beans combo. Everything was baked together, so that there was no distinction between the two and tasted like mush. My friend was happy with her shrimp and tamale combo. Plus side was the tasty dish came hot and it felt nice to feel the warmth throughout my body. Comped tortilla chips and salsa. Reasonable prices. read more

The food here is AMAZING, spectacular food, the service is also spot on, some of the servers here are sometimes rude, I don't know his name but hes sometimes rude, but besides that, all the servers here are amazing, also some other server, I think his name is Jose, he gave me and my mom free ice cream, and we didn't even ask for it, when he gave us the bill, it wasn't on there, like thats some good service, we gave him a good tip for that. The Ambiance of the restaurant and the music is also great, everything about this place is amazing, nothing bad about Yolanda's, maybe the only thing I could say about it is why they don't serve the bean dip on Friday-Sunday, only during Monday-Thursday, but besides that, its the best. 5 stars. read more

I think the service is quick and friendly. I ate at the bar so as not to wait. The bar tender was very attentive. Complimentary chips and salsa. I liked them. Pretty tasty food. Not too spicy. My experience was pleasant. I think it's a good spot. Definitely worth a try. I was impressed by the cleanliness, the quickness(without feeling rushed), and the good vibes. read more

I feel torn about our experience. The good was great, but our order was forgotten about and we were sitting for two hours before we received food. And that was after I went and asked about it because I hadn't seen our waiter in so long. Has it just been me and my husband it would have been annoying but not terrible. However we had a 5 year old, 2 year old, and 1 week old with us at this fundraiser night. When we got the food it wasn't bad. But the kids were so done at that point we basically just boxed the food up immediately so we could leave. Maybe we'll try this place again as take out. But I doubt I'd go back here to sit with kids. read more

I have a few problems with this restaurant. The food last time was just mediocre the spices on the entrees were uneven and the food is inconsistent every time we go there. Their service was inattentive and it seemed as if the food was not made with care, just put on the plate. read more

For my Mother's 89th Birthday we headed out to Yolanda's off of Victoria Rd in Oxnard. Everything we ordered was perfect and we'll return again. The waiters even sang for my mother and she very much enjoyed. We had a table overlooking the marina and the weather was exceptional that day. Highly recommend for as nylons that enjoys great ambiance and good Mexican food. ‍ read more

Casual dinner with friends. Outdoor seating a must. Our friends had eaten at Yolanda's many times and recommended it highly. They did not disappoint. their outdoor patio is enclosed with fans going. Totally separated from the parking lot. Nice! I got a combination dish ($18)with chile relleno and a chicken enchilada. Comes with a very large side of rice and beans. The chile relleno was outstanding. The enchilada was just OK. My wife got a tostada salad ($18) which was excellent. Omar, our server, was excellent. Excellent ambiance, good food at fair prices, and excellent service. We will be back the next time we are in the mood for Mexican food. read more

I grew up coming to yolanda's, it has always held a special place in my heart. One weekend we had asked the manager if we could have our Bunco party on their patio. They were so amazing. We ordered appetizers, drinks, food, dessert, had our game. So at the end of the year when we decided to have our end-of-the year bunco party and I TOLD THEM HOW THE PROCESS WOULD GO! They basically kicked us out. We were put on the patio and were told a party was coming and we had to move because they had signed a contract. We said we would have come earlier or a different day had we known but the manager was SO rude about it. When we were done with our game and wanted to order desserts he kicked us out and argued that we said it would have only be an hour more. We tried to explain that when we made the reservation we asked if how our party would go would be okay and if they would accommodate. If we needed to spend more money we would have, if they wanted a deposit, we would have paid that, but they didn't say anything about it and the manager was just awful. It's so sad that this place that has held such a sentimental place in my heart, since it's placement on saviors at the Centerpoint mall has been forever tarnished. I will never eat here again. My friends drove 2 hours to be here with us and it was so embarrassing to have been treated this way. After this humiliation and being treated like we weren't willing to pay whatever they want, I just can't describe it. Just never again. read more

Yolanda's Mexican cafe - All the people waiting to be seated according to Luis, the GM. - Mexican Near Me - Camarillo, California

This is my go to place for fajitas. The sauce they use is so tasty and the carmelized onions on the sizzling skillet are the best part. Chicken was tender and I like to substitute other veggies (broccoli, carrots and zucchini) for the bell peppers. The accompanying cheesy beans, pico de gallo and guacamole are consistently good. The house salsa is always fresh and chips are served hot! Service was pleasant. The dining room is nicely decorated with murals and it feels like you're in a Mexican cantina. There's also a spacious outdoor patio. read more

Why have I not dined at this location before?! I've been to the other Yolanda's locations in Ventura, Simi, & especially in Oxnard... Maybe because I didn't know how great it was to dine here. Love the patio area! It's outdoors but still pretty secluded around the perimeter. The outside heaters were perfect for a chilly evening. I can't get enough of their chips & salsa. I'll devour a tray of chips & a salsa cup to myself. Try their spicy bean dip. Don't worry it's not too spicy, it's more cheesy. Food portions are huge! Love their Happy Hour. FYI Happy Hour is Monday-Fridays from 3pm-6pm. Yolanda's Margaritas! I just can't steer away from them. My usual is a regular Margarita on the rocks. But it seems like they've added more flavors to the menu. Oh yes! The Banana Margarita was actually good, even for someone that doesn't care for banana flavors. I enjoyed the Spicy Mango Margarita, soo good! Service was excellent!! Thank You so much Pedro for being an Amazing server!! And a Big Thank You to the other servers!! (Sorry, I didn't get your names) We had such a wonderful experience here. Keep up the great work! The only con is the small parking lot. The parking lot will be full, that you might have to park across the street. read more

We love coming here! Great chips and salsa plus an awesome salsa bar. We usually sit at the bar and the last couple times an older gentleman has been back there. I wish I knew his name but service is always friendly. He literally is one of the best bartenders around. He can walk circles around all those snooty bartenders in town. My tea is always full and he doesn't miss anything! I usually get the cheese enchiladas or the chicken fajitas which are both fantastic. If your looking for a little appetizer don't skip the bean dip or albondigas soup. My husband enjoys their regular margarita or skinny. The restaurant itself is always clean and there is always a manager roaming around making things run smoothly. I can't forget about the bus boys that are constantly on top refilling chips and salsa. This restaurant is definitely one to check out! read more

Yolanda's is the staple for Ventura County Mexican food. I remember starting to go here (not this location, but the original one in Oxnard) in the middle to late '80s. This location continues the same tradition. We have always been very happy with the food and the service. One thing you will notice and by chatting with the servers, as many of them have been there for decades. They seem to take very good care of their employees, which is not typical in the restaurant industry. This location has been a great one for birthdays, anniversaries, happy hours for work, and pretty much any occasion. The food has always been good and consistent and the service has always been top shelf (like the margaritas). They can get busy - which I guess is challenging - but good things come to those who wait. As I mentioned from the outset, when you have been coming here for almost 40 years, I guess it is a good thing. read more

Overall Review = Fair. I would not recommend Yolanda's. We visited Yolanda's after being referred by someone at the Amtrak train station. We sat on the outdoor patio. The service was good. The ambiance was okay. However, the food was underwhelming. My companion had the shrimp fajitas and I had a combination plate. Unfortunately the food was not seasoned well and I was unable to eat my meal. We ordered a drink flight and that was the highlight of the meal. The $70 price tag was disappointing and NOT worth it. I would NOT recommend this restaurant for a good meal. read more

Had the seafood burrito & I changed up the sauce so I asked her to do the cream sauce that they put on the shrimp enchiladas, instead of the tomatillo sauce that normally comes on the seafood burrito. It tasted great like that! This was my first time there, my food tasted great, the service was great & I would love to go back. Only complaint I have is it felt really loud especially for a Wed evening (good for them being so busy, but made it a little difficult to enjoy my chat w/ my friend) so I didn't love that part but I would still go back & try it again. read more
