Phil’s
“My family absolutely loved this place. They made us feel like family and very comfortable. We will be back when we’re in town. Phil created something special. The menu was unique and the wine was paired perfectly. Can’t wait to come back.”
“I’ve worked in the Thousand Oaks area for over 20 years and have gone to many different restaurants during those years. This one stands out as one of the very best in terms of service, freshness of menu selections, ability to have a conversation without overwhelming loud music and noise, and ambience. The menu selection is varied so there’s something for everyone. Boroka and Jorge have created something truly special with their gem of a restaurant. I rate it as my favorite.”
“Another best location for Indian food. Thousand Oaks area. If you are in the area, forget about all the restaurants nearby and try this Indian cuisine. The best collections of chicken with their special sauces. Definitely try their bomb chicken and butter chicken for kids, and their Tikka is on a different level. For appetizers, try their samoosas. Hope you like it. The service was very good as well.”
“What a great craft cocktail bar. Amazing drinks made by true bartenders. Atmosphere is great. There is no food, but you can go to Bad Ass Tacos next door and bring it over. Small place so plan your arrival time accordingly if you want a table.”

Rustico

Restaurants by Cuisine
“If you think Brazilian means lots of meat, you haven't tried Moqueca - a wonderful seafood stew from the central coast of Brazil. I had the sea bass and my wife had the shrimp and mahi mahi and they were both fantastic. Great service as well.”
“I believe this place has best Persian food in this side of Los Angeles.5* to food.Kobideh is better than most of sfv Persian restaurants.Lamb shank (comes with bhagali polo) tender and delicious.Only downer is the new hostess who is stoic and rude at times (you’ve been warned)Try saffron and rose cocktailsBut remember to ask price for double shot.”
“We stopped here in our way to a concert. We are so thrilled with the food, the service and ambiance that we will drive 2 houses again just to enjoy the delicious food.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“My wife is from Germany and her favorite food is Doner. She has been trying to find a place that serves Doner like they do in Germany and Twisted Meats is definitely the place to go. Delicious!!!! The guys that work there are also super friendly. Great ”
“Loved my meal of braised beef and mushrooms. The count pineapple lime juice is AMAZING and Ryan & Brian couldn't have been nicer! Will definitely be back :)”
“My dad and I stopped here on a trip for a quick meal. We ended up getting both a wonderful meal and experience! The service was incredibly welcoming and the food was amazing (especially the seasoned rice).”
“I ordered lobster tacos. The lobster meat is cooked perfectly, the cabbage gives it a crunch, and I like the spiciness from the chipotle aioli. This atmosphere reminds me of dining out in Mexico. Superb service. I recommended all to try this place.”
“My family absolutely loved this place. They made us feel like family and very comfortable. We will be back when we’re in town. Phil created something special. The menu was unique and the wine was paired perfectly. Can’t wait to come back.”

“After trying a few pizza places in the area… We’ve believe we found the one! The pizza is flavorful -the sauce is flavorful. The meatball sub has good sized meatballs and is well flavored. There is something for everyone in this world and this place is for us!”
“What a pleasant surprise! I went to little calf for lunch and let me tell you this place is GOOD!! They make their own potato chips and maybe the bread it was so crispy and light. The service was excellent and staff were very friendly. I highly recommend!”
“I went to lunch here with my friend who recently went here for lunch and she absolutely loved it and wanted me to try it. OK. I love trying new places!The inside was super clean and had a good ambience. Our waitress was over-the-top great and was there to give recommendations and answer any questions we had. She also delivered our food in a very timely manner and made sure our drinks were always filled.My friend and I both had the lunch special of the Pad Thai with vegetables and their dumplings. The lunch special came with rice (brown or white, a spring roll and soup or salad) I chose the brown rice (very different than your typical brown rice) and the salad. The salad had a Thai peanut dressing on it and it was absolutely flavorful and delicious! The salad was very fresh and had carrot shavings, cucumber and tomato. The spring roll was very fresh and tasty especially when dipped in the orange colored sauce they serve the dish with. My friend had the white rice and Miso soup which she enjoyed. Now for the pad Thai.......I was expecting a typical Thai dish of pad Thai. This was not it. I didn't think it had much flavor, or at least what I am used to, and it wasn't spicy at all. I did ask for hot chili sauce which they had and delivered to us. It did help a bit but I wasn't a fan. The veggies were just ok. They did seem to be very fresh. My only comment was that I didn't enjoy the flavor of it. Now my friend...she absolutely LOVED it! She had the same exact dish as I did but obviously she has a different palate and/or taste in food. It just goes to show you how restaurant reviews vary with each person. We did both agree that the dumplings were great and flavorful.With that being said, I will most likely go back and try something different and give it another try. How can I not when the service was fabulous, the food was fresh and the restaurant was very clean.”
“I really enjoyed the place, it was an amazing experience and the dubbel Bier is great, thanks to having a nice and welcoming brewing company, another excellent point is the games to kill time, when you brew some beers the experience is magnified.I'm just counting the time to come back in any available time that We have to visit!”
“My favorite Pho in the area! The broth has the perfect blend of spices and seasonings. The rich flavor is enhanced by the addition of shrimp which are large, tender and plentiful. Or, choose from a variety of beef or chicken, or just broth and noodles. I love the generous size served in authentic dish ware. Plus it is unlimited noodles! Who does that? These super nice people do! I also love the shrimp spring rolls with peanut dipping sauce, the lettuce and mint are tender and the sauce has a unique zing. In the mood for fries? Parmesan truffle fries here hit the spot. Shoestring thin, super hot, crispy on outside but a little tender inside and a liberal helping of shaved fresh Parmesan with the truffle oil and herbs on top. You will leave feeling satisfied I promise you.”
“Fantastic little deli. They have lots of homemade Italian family favorites like guanciale, or hard to find Italian foodstuffs.But the real delight is for under $10 they have the best sandwiches in town, hands down. I get the six inch Italian Deli sandwich anytime I'm around for lunch and it's always the perfect amount of food and a great sandwich for the money.”
“APPRECIATION for the STAFF, the professionals that took my order and prepared my food. YOU GUYS ROCK! Tonight was crazy busy with several youth sports teams parents and usual patrons. It was …BUSY, but my take out order was correct, fresh, and timely! All with a smile. Thank you for your hard work!”
“Glad we decided on Mouthful! Thanks Yelp for suggesting this place. We got these menu items to share: lobo salteado sandwich, pork belly bowl with quinoa, artichoke side and fries. Delicious!”
“What a great craft cocktail bar. Amazing drinks made by true bartenders. Atmosphere is great. There is no food, but you can go to Bad Ass Tacos next door and bring it over. Small place so plan your arrival time accordingly if you want a table.”

Kanda Sushi
“Let’s say it together: Traditional. No sugar sauces or flavorless fish. It’s an experience. Now there’s a way to muddle your way through the menu in a mass sushi kinda way but here one must give in to the menu. We sat at the sushi bar and had an amazing meal with buttery fish and flavors beyond explanation. Now this kind of experience comes with a price tag but if you’re over the bland grind and want an escape that’s just next door, this is where you can accomplish it.”
“Oh my! So this is a first no “photo” review. This is for a reason. Grand hospitality with a Greek flair. Family business and this team puts the their heart and soul into making a well prepared meal. Get there early too. Halibut is amazing. Orange roughy is fresh and grilled perfectly. Sand dabs for a west coast delicacy are top shelf.”
“Arrived for a Friday lunch and were seated quickly in a booth. Server was Frank, and he was awesome!! I had signed up for the e club, so we chose the firecracker shrimp starter. It was delicious. My son ordered the bison burger with no lettuce or tomato and he enjoyed it. He said the bison was delicious. He really enjoyed the fries. I ordered the lunch size Kung pao chicken with brown rice and I enjoyed it. My son ordered a huckleberry beer and Frank brought him a taste of a similar beer, Walrus IPA, to try and my son actually preferred the one Frank suggested. We ended up also ordering the apple and huckleberry pie which we both enjoyed. Great service and delicious food!”
Outdoor Dining
“They used to have a covered outdoor patio but that got taken down but it looks like the place was remodeled recently because I don't remember it looking like this the first time. We visited during the pandemic as our first time and this was our second time back. We were greeted and the lady at the cash register was very friendly and pleasant. I didn't know if I should get the torta or a burrito. I always get a burrito so I decided to opt for the torta this time; it was a good choice. They loaded the torta up with fresh ingredients, including fresh cheese, and avocado, and they have the grilled onions on the side, which were delicious addition with a little bit of chips. I got horchata to drink, and it was very tasty. Perfect mixture. Overall, the establishment was very clean and there was plenty of sauces and sides to complement the dishes. The dishes or bag, and I would've loved for my boyfriend to share my torta, but he was too hungry and the food was too good. The customer service was top-notch and we would definitely return again.”

“I love this place, supper tidy and clean. I LOVE the combination of Cafe and Chess. For those who love to play chess, I recommend this place. Get yourself a matcha/coffee and play a game.”
“Found this amazing Boba spot in Thousand Oaks! I had an intense craving for some jasmine milk tea, with boba of course. So I googled the nearest spot from where I was on the 101 back from Calabasas. Had no idea this existed but I'm so glad I found you! Found my new boba stop on my commute home. So many unique & delish flavors that the owner encourages her employees to come up with to feature each month. What a great way to get employees engaged! Cute little spot.”

“We had a little fun the other day and got slices from a few places we hadn't tried yet (Parma, Slice House and Deninos). Parma was the clear winner for me. Excellent crust that was perfectly thin and crispy, sauce was balanced, not too sweet and not too much of it, cheese was delish and had a nice cheese pull, pepperoni, which I don't usually like) was nice and crispy. The staff was very nice and they looked like they were having a good time working. Will definitely be going back.Parking: The parking lot is in the back, and there is plenty of parking.”
“I LOVE fatburger. This place is a real community institution. Keeps me out of the pool halls and of the street. Big burger. Big fat burger. Yes! Come here, but only late at night, please! I am writing this from the restaurant and crying into my beer because i understand i will never be able to marry Neha. It saddens me, but i am full now.”
“Found this place on accident. Surprisingly delighted by their offerings and the quality. First, let me tell you that the large sandwich is worth two meals. But don't let me tell you how to eat their food...just let me tell you what I ordered. I have been here twice. I ordered something different each time. First time, I ordered I got the Americano. Second time, I got the italiano. Omg!!! Both sandwiches knocked my socks off. Chock full of high quality meats and cheeses...and the toppings were an absolute delicious complement to the sandwich. The bread is fresh and soft and a perfect delivery tool for the amazing ingredients.When you get here, there will probably be a line. But it moves very fast. Don't be discouraged. Just get in line. The person taking your order knows all the sandwiches very well and they are happy to help you navigate the menu if you need it. I went with five friends. We all got a different variety of sandwiches. Everyone was pleased.This place also serves as an Italian market. Lots of nice offerings. Including containers of sauces and frozen pasta's and even lasagna. Great idea to take some of these well-made ingredients and make some thing. Fabulous at home. They do have specials. Usually a half sandwich and a side for about the same money as a large sandwich. So, it depends on if you are good at managing leftovers or just want enough food to finish in one sitting. I haven't made my way around to the lunch specials because I'm still working on their specialty sandwiches. Hot tip: get a side of the Italian dressing to dip your sandwich in. OMG! It's so good! They make it in-house and it is very obvious that they put a lot of love into each of their things even their Italian dressing. Are you still reading? Get your butt over there and order something. Don't forget I told you a large sandwich is a lot. Have a great day! I hope you enjoy it as much as me and my friends did.”
“Great service!!! Food was AMAZING!!! Great pub experience and beer selection.I Definitely be back.Parking: Parking was free but little hard to find one.Hey, what do you expect, it's a popular place to be”
“I believe this place has best Persian food in this side of Los Angeles.5* to food.Kobideh is better than most of sfv Persian restaurants.Lamb shank (comes with bhagali polo) tender and delicious.Only downer is the new hostess who is stoic and rude at times (you’ve been warned)Try saffron and rose cocktailsBut remember to ask price for double shot.”
“We stopped here in our way to a concert. We are so thrilled with the food, the service and ambiance that we will drive 2 houses again just to enjoy the delicious food.”
“Love Butler's Pizza! Hardworking owner and his family have always greeted my wife and I with a smile and friendly hello. Excellent menu, reasonable prices, delicious food. Their sourdough pizza crust is our favorite, highly recommended! There are lots of pizza options in T.O. and Westlake, but Butler's is our personal choice.”
“Very busy and popular place. Try getting there early if you want indoor seating during lunch break. Generous servings and I LOVED their avocado toast. Will definitely go again for their other healthy and tasty looking menu items. ?”
“Lucky Dog's hotdogs are a savory delight! From their perfectly grilled buns to the juicy, flavorful sausages, every bite is a taste sensation. Whether you're a fan of classic toppings or adventurous combinations, Lucky Dog delivers with their variety of condiments and toppings. Each hotdog is a testament to quality ingredients and skilled preparation. A trip to Lucky Dog guarantees a mouthwatering experience that'll leave you craving more!”

PokeLand
“A lot of businesses have come and gone in this space over the years and I really hope this place is here to stay. It’s delicious and deserves a shot if you haven’t been already.I only eat the tuna and spicy tuna. Had it dozens of times and it’s always great. Never been sick. Can’t speak on the salmon, octopus, or albacore. But if you’re choosing albacore over ahi tuna, you need to reevaluate your life decisions and maybe consider that you’re doing everything wrong anyway.PS, your first scoop of avocado is free.”
“This restaurant is a great place for a good family dinner. Our server Bryan was excellent. He was very attentive and friendly. This is our favorite place to eat and will definitely be back.”
“All time favorite breakfast spot. When you are up in the morning and you have time definitely check it out. I always get the Pulled Pork Omelet and pair it with some coffee. Great service with waiters being around asking about your experience even when they are jam packed. You need to come on weekdays or it get insanely busy during the weekends. It's a go to spot for me ever since last month when I first trekked in.”
Online Reservation Available
“Pizza is amazing, thin crust that is crispy and flavorful, always our go-to for pizza night. Customer service is top tier! Even when calling in an order for delivery you are treated like family, they take the time to know their customers and connect. Extremely friendly staff that always go above and beyond. But don't expect to get sides of dressing with delivery, unfortunately it's hit or miss, their only downfall”
“This restaurant is a great place for a good family dinner. Our server Bryan was excellent. He was very attentive and friendly. This is our favorite place to eat and will definitely be back.”
“Had a great time with some friends on Friday night. Food was incredible as always.... very thankful for our server Grazi (I hope I spelled that right) who took amazing care of us and answered all our questions and made great suggestions.”
“We yelped and found this gem! This place transports you back in time in a very cute way with its ambience. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We ordered the spicy garlic chicken and sweet and sour chicken which did not disappoint! The food here is extremely flavorful and delicious. Portions are great and again...food is sooooo good! I would most definitely recommend this place. They have great lunch specials too. 5 stars from us!”
“Our waiter was great and so informative of how to navigate our menus. We did not have to wait long in between courses, and food was so yummy! Glasses were always checked on. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to have an intimate date night.”
“What an amazing food!!! Feels and tastes like homemade food and they feed you with so much love and care!!! Feel like home away from home. Highly highly recommend ”
“My family and I recently decided to spice up our lunch gathering by ordering from Mendocino Farms in Westlake Village's catering menu and it was a hit! Ordering online was a breeze, and when I arrived for pickup on the designated date and time, everything was prepared and waiting for me, complete with disposable dining ware for easy cleanup. The curry couscous dish was as delicious as ever and quickly became a family favorite. Their salads - always fresh, crunchy, and bursting with flavor, they provided the perfect accompaniment to our meal.”
“I have ordered from this restaurant before on DoorDash but today is the first time I have eaten inside the dog house I definitely recommend the dog house for a fresh variety of anything you want to eat from chili cheese tater tots to grape fresh grilled chicken with ranch any style hot dog The food here is really good and is worth the Wait which was not very long.”
“Everything was spectacular. Our server, Felipe, was insightful, clear and overall outstanding. The bread service was the best I had thus far. Their signature salad was amazing. The lobster bisque, was good, but not my favorite. We had the filet with garlic mashed potatoes and the lobster mac n cheese. All were fabulous. They made the best virgin mojito I have had, and we loved the dark and quiet ambiance ( we sat in the back dining space). We will definitely dine here again.”
“Wanted some tasty food at a good price for my daughter and I. The server was very positive and enthusiastic, the food was really good. Had an alfredo dish and a carbonara dish after a bunch of salad... loved it. To top or off, for $6, we got a spaghetti dish to go. Though to beat.”
“Been coming here the past few years and am thrilled by the success and growth that TH has experienced. Awesome! The ambience can get a bit wild with their popularity but there are four distinct seating options depending on the vibe you're looking for: outside patio with heaters, high top four seaters, 8-10 person picnic tables and a spacious "beer garden" in the back parking lot for all major sporting/holiday events. My personal favorite addition to their already-famous wine and in-house craft beer list is a full bar with an amazing bartender, James. James has a ton of experience in the industry, has a fantastic personality, is incredibly well-versed in "craft whiskeys" from across the country (of which their bar is fully stocked), and is equally skilled at striking up your friendly neighborhood conversation or creating his own customized concoctions to meet your given mood and taste buds. Thank you James for adding your incredibly valuable talents to the Tarantula Hill experience.”
“There is a new owner who is the son of the first owners, a lovely couple from Italy. The pizza is not only delicious but it's just 7.99 a slice cheese only. Ricardo and his wife work hard and are really bringing in some new tasty items and they've earned my biz!”
“Came in for the first time yesterday. Our server Craig gave excellent service, was very attentive and answered all the questions I had regarding the menu. I had the 6oz Filet and my grandparents had the French dip sandwich. We all enjoyed our food. Everything was very delicious. We will definitely be back again soon.”
“Friendly service, food is flavorful and soups are hearty, we shared. Loved the wide glass noodle dish with beef was hot off the wok and tasty. We will be back to try more soon!”
“I forgot what a little piece of heaven tasted like. I Stopped in for lunch takeout and tried their special Crispy shrimp. Oh my Goodness! I even ate the broccoli side that was fresh and so crispy too. YUM YUM YUM! I wish the staff was a little friendlier. You Cannot have everything, I guess.”
“The service was great, and the food was amazing. I had chicken and steak fajitas, which kept sizzling at our table for over 4 minutes. I observed many meals going to other tables which were immense a d everyone seemed happy! Give this place a try as I see many are doing because by the time we left....there wasn't a seat left in the place!”
“Had a great time with some friends on Friday night. Food was incredible as always.... very thankful for our server Grazi (I hope I spelled that right) who took amazing care of us and answered all our questions and made great suggestions.”

“I would highly recommend Del TacoWhen I walked into Del taco and ordered my food was already ready very quickly! Service was amazing, everyone who works there is very nice! The food tasted very fresh and had amazing flavor! The new Birria Quesadilla, Ramen, and the street tacos are amazing, I would highly consider other people to go and try it! The place was very clean every time I would go in! Del Taco has the best tacos, they are really good, better than any other fast food restaurant!”
“When an order goes awry, they're always willin' to (& succeed in) gettin' it right the 2nd time, in an acceptable amount of time & never on your dime. Gotta love that way of doin' business. Remodeled our location once more. Lookin' good McD's.”
“Quality always consistent, this location has beautiful views and they have outdoor seating as well. Great food, tasty sides. Just keep in mind their corn is spicy even if you ask them to give it to you plain.Kid-friendliness: They have a good kids menu”

Takeout Restaurants
“My wife and I have been eating at Bangkok Avenue and also doing take-out for the past 5 years or more. The food and service are excellent. Also, there is a large lot with free parking. We like Bangkok Avenue so much, we drive 30 to 40 minutes to get there from our home. We have ordered many different items from the menu, and we have enjoyed everything we have ordered. My personal favorite is the Garlic Almond Shrimp, which I get practically every time I eat at Bangkok Avenue. The Mango Sticky Rice also is a great dessert. [Note: the donut shop next-store also is fabulous, but they close at 2 in the afternoon]. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We have tried multiple other Thai restaurants in the Conejo and San Fernando Valleys, and Bangkok Avenue is unquestionably the best we have had. There is only one other Thai restaurant at which we have eaten where the food is as good as Bangkok Avenue, but that restaurant is in Santa Monica and the prices are substantially higher and the environment is m ore sterile and less comfortable. If you are looking a a good Thai meal, you cannot go wrong with Bangkok Avenue.”
“Side Street has the best breakfasts!! Like home cooking but at a chefs home! I love it there every time! The owners are super nice! The service is top notch. It is a bit crowded they really pack them in there. And it's amazing how fast the service is in every way. The food is the freshest quality ingredients. I highly recommend. It's a lovely hidden gem.”
“Let’s say it together: Traditional. No sugar sauces or flavorless fish. It’s an experience. Now there’s a way to muddle your way through the menu in a mass sushi kinda way but here one must give in to the menu. We sat at the sushi bar and had an amazing meal with buttery fish and flavors beyond explanation. Now this kind of experience comes with a price tag but if you’re over the bland grind and want an escape that’s just next door, this is where you can accomplish it.”
“As an Italian from NYC who grew up on the best pizza in Queens (Rosa’s), this is likely the best pizza in California, similar to a favorite of mine that closed in El Segundo - the Grimaldi’s pizza chain from Brooklyn. They have a great special before 4pm weekdays, $20 for a pizza pie and 2 real Italian ices.They however need to put in a major renovation on the seating area. Un frost the windows and add new booths and TV’s.And a minor issue they don’t toast the bread on heroes, something I never experienced before. They also need to set aside parking at the Italian ice store beside their place.”
“Oh my! So this is a first no “photo” review. This is for a reason. Grand hospitality with a Greek flair. Family business and this team puts the their heart and soul into making a well prepared meal. Get there early too. Halibut is amazing. Orange roughy is fresh and grilled perfectly. Sand dabs for a west coast delicacy are top shelf.”

“Amazing food phenomenal service. The owners went above and beyond in assisting with catering an event. Guest kept commenting how tasty everything was especially the sauce. Again can't say enough about how thoughtful and thorough the owners were. Even when he went out of his way to help us with a mess up.”
“A lot of businesses have come and gone in this space over the years and I really hope this place is here to stay.

“My daughter and I had lunch at Grabbagreen for the first time and will definitely return. Super friendly staff helped us decide which bowls to choose, so many yummy options! Fresh ingredients, loved the dressing and sauces.”
“All time favorite breakfast spot. When you are up in the morning and you have time definitely check it out. I always get the Pulled Pork Omelet and pair it with some coffee. Great service with waiters being around asking about your experience even when they are jam packed. You need to come on weekdays or it get insanely busy during the weekends. It's a go to spot for me ever since last month when I first trekked in.”
“Food was very tasty, and since it was all you could eat, there was plenty. You can keep going back for more plates if you are hungry enough. The strange thing was when it was 30 minutes before they closed. They basically told us they were closing the kitchen and we could not get any more food even though 4 tables had just been seated within the last 5 minutes.”
“Food was amazing service was great and the owner made us feel very welcomed and so did the servers. Definitely a must visit! We had fajitas and flan for dessert OMGGGGG!!! And the bathroom was so adorable and fun , didn’t get pics of the food went down way too fast.”
“They have really good hard shell tacos with your choices of meat. My goto are the carnitas, or chicken which is lightly marinated in salas. It's the same chicken they use for there quesadillas too which are delicious! There street tacos de Asada & burritos are good too, and there bean & cheese burritos never disappoint! Of course all this good food couldn't be done without their outstanding service! If you eat here you'll enjoy the Spanish music they play on the TV, or at times they'll have a soccer game on.”
“Bacon Breakfast Burrito. My favorite. In my first trimester that's basically all I craved and all I could eat without feeling ill lol. I've never had a burger here but I absolutely love their breakfast burritos and their habanero sauce. I need that recipe!!!”
“The service was great, and the food was amazing. I had chicken and steak fajitas, which kept sizzling at our table for over 4 minutes. I observed many meals going to other tables which were immense a d everyone seemed happy! Give this place a try as I see many are doing because by the time we left....there wasn't a seat left in the place!”
“At Toppers Pizza, the food is yummy and has something for everyone's taste buds. The people who work there are nice and make you feel welcome. Sometimes, it gets really busy because everyone loves their pizza. Besides that it's amazing!”
“Guy working today is very nice and informative. Unfortunately, they don't have Freeze soft serve at this location which was the reason for my visit. PLEASE INSTALL A FREEZE SOFT SERVE MACHINE AT THIS LOCATION!!!”
“Been going to Barone’s since 1975. Clearly the best pizza option in the area. For those who know good pizza this is the spot.Parking: Easy access, not very busy parking lot”

“I recently dined at OR Authentic Thai Cuisine (formerly White Elephant Thai Cuisine) at The Oaks Mall in Thousand Oaks, and it was an exceptional experience. The cozy, family-friendly atmosphere created the perfect setting for a delightful family get-together. The authentic Thai cuisine was prepared with precision, featuring a burst of flavors that left a lasting impression. The impeccable service added to the overall satisfaction of our visit. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic Thai dining experience. Five stars!”
“I ordered this to pick it up. The app knew when I was going to be arriving and planned my order accordingly. It was ready as soon as I walked in.Tasted perfect (as always). Probably didn't need the large fries, but they are the best.”
“Very good juice. It was delicious while it lasted. My only regret is not ordering a larger size drink. Love this place and the workers. Will come back for more juice for sure.”
“This El Pollo local location not only has the best El Pollo Loco food, but also the best service! The people who provide the service at the Wendy Drive,, Newberry Park, El Pollo Loco location are the best!!! I called them during a very busy time at dinner, to do a pre-order for the morning. It was a large order. The lady, Blanca, who took my order, was so patient, very kind, and helpful. I always like going to this particular El Pollo Loco, the most because the people are great and they make the El Pollo Loco food the best! Thank you.”
“Friendly and helpful inside ordering. Order ready in a timely fashion. Like the vanilla ice coffee, supreme croissant and crispy hash browns. Looking forward to trying the classic all white grilled chicken wrap.”
“I haven't been in a good while. Worth it.employees were super nice.had a happy hour special I didn't even know about. I love the tacos.right off freeway. Very clean.”
“There is an employee named Emily that is always very nice and friendly. Every time I drive thru, she knows my order, she will even recap what I got last time and ask how my co-workers liked the recommendations she made. She builds rapport with her customers and makes them feel like they matter. I am very happy that you guys hired her, there needs to be more Emily's in world.”
“This location is in Westlake Village, on Thousand Oaks Blvd, catty corner to the TO Post Office.The people are always welcoming and great. Location is clean. Service is fast. Food and drinks are consistent.Great place to get together for an informal business meeting.They still have a small supply chain issue with a few items. Prices also seem to keep creeping up. I spent $15 on a coffee drink, egg bites, and a scone. Would I get a better breakfast deal elsewhere? Absolutely. And end up with something more substantial. But I'm aware of that and this is admittedly convenient.”
“The kid at the window was one of the nicest customer service employees I’ve seen in years. I wish I caught his name. He was polite, understood my order, and asked me how my day was going. We had a nice little conversation and he unsure my food wouldn’t spill out of the box before handing it to me. Thank you to him. He was a taller kid work the night shift.”
“It's just a good old McDonald's restaurant. What is there really much to say? These burgers will never be Gordon Ramsey Michelin's three-star quality so really it's just the fast-paced service and effective communication (hence, FAST food) Your food will come FAST at this McDonald's location! ?”
“Thank you Jose for taking care of an order I placed by mistake at a different location. Jose quickly called to care of an order I accidentally placed at a different location. He was able to cancel it and fix my mistake. Thanks for your help Jose. Customer service needs more people like you. I love the food but I'll be back due to people like Jose!”
“Have not been to this Carl's Jr for couple years but it is clean in the early am. However its menu prices have all gone up significantly because of inflation and hiking up of minimal wages. You have to prepare to pay over $10+ to get a meal for the Famous Star Burger. However, the food tastes great and the services are good.”
“Well a friend of mine and I had the munchies. He wanted to order Pizza from a restaurant. What turned me off from ordering was the mention of Pineapple on the pizza ?. So we bickered back and forth until we agreed on Tacos. I grabbed the keys and we headed to the Taco Bell ??..near the DMV. I always would drive to the Newbury Park location on Wendy Road.. When we arrived, the parking lot wasn't filled up. This eatery is in the location of one of the busiest shopping centers in the area.To start the DMV is located in the same space and there is a Gelsons Supermarket ?,McDonald's and a Hardware store. The drive thru was hopping with car's. THIS location isn't too familiar with me..the cashier took our orders and we spent close to 20-25.00.I included some pictures,just to give you an idea of our meal.. we dined in and out order did take some time. The choice of food for myself was meatless and vegan items. From burritos, tacos with beans (hard shell) and tacos with hash browns. I did have a fountain drink. My friend ordered most burritos and other items with meat.After our dinner, I needed to make a trip to the washroom. There are two bathrooms and they were very clean. No foul smells either. Over all this locations receives plenty of take out and Door dash orders. The restaurant was clean,no food on the tables, floor's and booth's. Most certainly recommend this location as well. Again the digital menus can be confusing at times. Especially when you are looking for a specific item.Vegetarian options: I do not eat meat and this is one of the specific reasons why I always return here to Taco Bell ???. They allow me to order hard shell Tacos and substitute the beans in replace of meat.Parking: Due to the location.. careful backing up. Many drivers will speed into the parking area with no regards towards the other vehicle owners.n”
“Everything was spectacular. Our server, Felipe, was insightful, clear and overall outstanding. The bread service was the best I had thus far. Their signature salad was amazing. The lobster bisque, was good, but not my favorite. We had the filet with garlic mashed potatoes and the lobster mac n cheese. All were fabulous. They made the best virgin mojito I have had, and we loved the dark and quiet ambiance ( we sat in the back dining space). We will definitely dine here again.”
“Absolutely one of my favorite Italian restaurants! All the way back when I was 17 my mother would take me here for mother daughter date night and then I now have my husband take me here!”
“The food is amazing! I've tried almost everything and it hasn't disappointed me. I live the salsa bar and oh Jacks sauce. The staff is always friendly and the surf vibe rocks.”

“I like the organ stuff but only when it is done well and this place does the organ stuff well. I got the lengua and the cabeza and couldn't have been more pleased. I will definitely go back. Fyi, I also did get the Al pastor and it was very good but definitely prefer the lengua and cabeza!”
“Great food even though I came too early for pizza. The oven needs to be heated to the right temperature and Lorena was great and wanted me to have a great first impression which I appreciated. Sandwiches and salad are really good. Will definitely be back for some pizza”
“Went for the first time today after years of going to Thousand Oaks mall from Ventura! Got a breve for my mom and matcha Frappuccino so good!! My mom also really liked her breve. Will be coming back when I'm shopping around! :)”
“Definitely a must try! The service was great, the customer service was very pleasant and the speed of receiving my order was great! The inside is clean and very welcoming! Now the FOOD, as soon as opened my plate (Angry Mac) in Mild.....it was hot and fresh!! The smells coming out were heavenly, it depends on what you are craving! I was craving....spicy, salty and CARBS! I was craving CARBS!! So if that's not what you're craving then don't get this! Today I was craving all these things and it DID NOT disappoint! Creamy Mac N Cheese, seasoned fries and a great amount of crunchy Chicken seasoned in their special seasonings all in a well proportioned bowl!!! I would definitely recommend to try and eat whenever I crave CARBs can't wait to try the other items soon ;) For me, it was DELICIOUS!”
“Love this place! The owners and staff are awesome. Every flavor shake I have tried is good. My go-to is a x large turbo tea with best defense and. Pistachio shake.Whenever I need to loose 5 pounds I just replace one of my meals with that order for a week and the weight is gone!”
“Pleaaaaaaase PLEAAAASE if you have not already tried it! Please order the Ma pu tofu pork it's so rich and savory the pork is juicy and has lots of flavor! I ordered it with salt and pepper squid which was also a delight ! But please the mapu tofu pork is a must try!”
“This was takeout. I call it in & it’s always ready & always delicious. I go there regularly.Dietary restrictions: I have to eat soft foods so I no longer order sushi but loved both sushi sampler rolls & any other roll I used to order.Now I order an eel bowl, love seaweed but can’t eat it now so they sub greens, the avocado is always fresh & delicious too. The miso soup that comes with it is the best I ever had. If weather ok & I have time I love that I can eat outsideParking: I always find a spot close to this restaurant”
“We got two lunch specials... The chicken parmigiana and the eggplant parmigiana. YUM! Both came with spaghetti w/marinara sauce, a garlic knot, cans or fountain drinks (they have every selection) and a delicious fresh COLD salad. Dressing was great. When I got back home 10 minutes later, hot food was piping hot. May seem a little pricey for a lunch special ($16.99 and $15.99) but it's a GREAT deal because after lunch it's $22, no drink (worth it either way.) You get what you pay for. Sauce is excellent - tastes like my Italian Grandma spent hours over the stove. Takes me four or five hours to make a sauce that tastes like that. 10 out of 10. Just a touch of sweetness, exactly the way I love it. The chicken and eggplant and salad were great, seasoned just right. My first time here but I will definitely be back to try the pizza. Other reviewers called it a hole in the wall, but I thought it was very nice and clean with great "pizza place" vibe. Other reviewers didn't like the servers, but mine (young man) was very nice and attentive. So all in all, we got two huge meals, which were actually equal to four meals - all for under $35 including drinks, salad, and rolls. Can't wait to try the pizza!!! Kudos to the owners!”
“Food here so far has never disappointed us! Always yummy fresh and hot! I also love that they have glass noodles as an option, regular noodles usually upset my stomach, and the spicy broth is SO good especially on a rainy cold day.”
“My experience was Amazing! Food was delicious.. Got the $10 Lunch Combo with the Chicken Ranch Quesadilla. Side Salad. and ordered Chips and Guac enough to bring some home to snack on. My server Jen was absolutely Fantastic. Her Energy was great her kindness and efficiency to me and to all who she was tending to. She definitely made my day and by the looks of my observation... everyone else she had served that afternoon as well. Loved her! Very satisfied with my experience. Thank you. -Nina”

“Great food and service, the patio outside gets a bit noisy with loud people which can be very distracting and disturbing. If there's a large party outdoors, you're better off waiting for a table inside.”
“Wanted some tasty food at a good price for my daughter and I. The server was very positive and enthusiastic, the food was really good. Had an alfredo dish and a carbonara dish after a bunch of salad... loved it. To top or off, for $6, we got a spaghetti dish to go. Though to beat.”

“We had a little fun the other day and got slices from a few places we hadn't tried yet (Parma, Slice House and Deninos). Parma was the clear winner for me. Excellent crust that was perfectly thin and crispy, sauce was balanced, not too sweet and not too much of it, cheese was delish and had a nice cheese pull, pepperoni, which I don't usually like) was nice and crispy. The staff was very nice and they looked like they were having a good time working. Will definitely be going back.Parking: The parking lot is in the back, and there is plenty of parking.”

“Found this place on accident. Surprisingly delighted by their offerings and the quality. First, let me tell you that the large sandwich is worth two meals. But don't let me tell you how to eat their food...just let me tell you what I ordered. I have been here twice. I ordered something different each time. First time, I ordered I got the Americano. Second time, I got the italiano. Omg!!! Both sandwiches knocked my socks off. Chock full of high quality meats and cheeses...and the toppings were an absolute delicious complement to the sandwich. The bread is fresh and soft and a perfect delivery tool for the amazing ingredients.When you get here, there will probably be a line. But it moves very fast. Don't be discouraged. Just get in line. The person taking your order knows all the sandwiches very well and they are happy to help you navigate the menu if you need it. I went with five friends. We all got a different variety of sandwiches. Everyone was pleased.This place also serves as an Italian market. Lots of nice offerings. Including containers of sauces and frozen pasta's and even lasagna. Great idea to take some of these well-made ingredients and make some thing. Fabulous at home. They do have specials. Usually a half sandwich and a side for about the same money as a large sandwich. So, it depends on if you are good at managing leftovers or just want enough food to finish in one sitting. I haven't made my way around to the lunch specials because I'm still working on their specialty sandwiches. Hot tip: get a side of the Italian dressing to dip your sandwich in. OMG! It's so good! They make it in-house and it is very obvious that they put a lot of love into each of their things even their Italian dressing. Are you still reading? Get your butt over there and order something. Don't forget I told you a large sandwich is a lot. Have a great day! I hope you enjoy it as much as me and my friends did.”
“My daughter was suffering from abdominal pain and vomiting. I told the gentleman the symptoms my daughter was having, he selected several herbs. That day I made some tea for her. She came out and asked me what was in it because it took the nausea and pain away. She has a hiatal hernia but has managed to keep symptoms under control with herbal tea.”
“Best refried beans ever. Don't miss out on those. The shredded beef taco & quesabirria tacos (with consome) are moan worthy. What a gem in Newbury Park!”
“I love this place, supper tidy and clean. I LOVE the combination of Cafe and Chess. For those who love to play chess, I recommend this place. Get yourself a matcha/coffee and play a game.”
“Love the new sauces they bring, my favourite ones are the maple siriracha and tha special lakers one. strongly recommend for you to try but dont trust with delivery, everything becomes soggy, so it is better to pick up the order or eat there.”
“Found this amazing Boba spot in Thousand Oaks! I had an intense craving for some jasmine milk tea, with boba of course. So I googled the nearest spot from where I was on the 101 back from Calabasas. Had no idea this existed but I'm so glad I found you! Found my new boba stop on my commute home. So many unique & delish flavors that the owner encourages her employees to come up with to feature each month. What a great way to get employees engaged! Cute little spot.”

“As an Italian from NYC who grew up on the best pizza in Queens (Rosa’s), this is likely the best pizza in California, similar to a favorite of mine that closed in El Segundo - the Grimaldi’s pizza chain from Brooklyn. They have a great special before 4pm weekdays, $20 for a pizza pie and 2 real Italian ices.They however need to put in a major renovation on the seating area. Un frost the windows and add new booths and TV’s.And a minor issue they don’t toast the bread on heroes, something I never experienced before. They also need to set aside parking at the Italian ice store beside their place.”
“We have eaten here quite a few times since they opened, take out and eaten in. Always received what we ordered and a decent quantity of everything. The rotisserie chicken, chicken kabobs and chicken shawarma has all been very good. Will be back soon.”

“They used to have a covered outdoor patio but that got taken down but it looks like the place was remodeled recently because I don't remember it looking like this the first time. We visited during the pandemic as our first time and this was our second time back. We were greeted and the lady at the cash register was very friendly and pleasant. I didn't know if I should get the torta or a burrito. I always get a burrito so I decided to opt for the torta this time; it was a good choice. They loaded the torta up with fresh ingredients, including fresh cheese, and avocado, and they have the grilled onions on the side, which were delicious addition with a little bit of chips. I got horchata to drink, and it was very tasty. Perfect mixture. Overall, the establishment was very clean and there was plenty of sauces and sides to complement the dishes. The dishes or bag, and I would've loved for my boyfriend to share my torta, but he was too hungry and the food was too good. The customer service was top-notch and we would definitely return again.”
“My family and I recently decided to spice up our lunch gathering by ordering from Mendocino Farms in Westlake Village's catering menu and it was a hit! Ordering online was a breeze, and when I arrived for pickup on the designated date and time, everything was prepared and waiting for me, complete with disposable dining ware for easy cleanup. The curry couscous dish was as delicious as ever and quickly became a family favorite. Their salads - always fresh, crunchy, and bursting with flavor, they provided the perfect accompaniment to our meal.”

“My favorite Pho in the area! The broth has the perfect blend of spices and seasonings. The rich flavor is enhanced by the addition of shrimp which are large, tender and plentiful. Or, choose from a variety of beef or chicken, or just broth and noodles. I love the generous size served in authentic dish ware. Plus it is unlimited noodles! Who does that? These super nice people do! I also love the shrimp spring rolls with peanut dipping sauce, the lettuce and mint are tender and the sauce has a unique zing. In the mood for fries? Parmesan truffle fries here hit the spot. Shoestring thin, super hot, crispy on outside but a little tender inside and a liberal helping of shaved fresh Parmesan with the truffle oil and herbs on top. You will leave feeling satisfied I promise you.”
“APPRECIATION for the STAFF, the professionals that took my order and prepared my food. YOU GUYS ROCK! Tonight was crazy busy with several youth sports teams parents and usual patrons.
