29 Best American Restaurants in Thousand Oaks

“Keyri made the cob salad, which was honestly the best salad I've ever had in my entire life. The lettuce was fresh and crispy and with dressing tossed in it was close to perfection. Giving 4 stars because trying the second time I got a piece of fatty pinkish chicken on my plate. I have a feeling it wasn't made by her, because the Cobb was different the second time around. ‍“

“My favorite place to go in the area. I always take people here and Phil and the team always make us feel like the most important people in the room. The food is fantastic. We tried the dessert special this week (cinnamon bun dessert). It was incredible. Highly recommended!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Family run and operated come support our local businesses. Maui banana milkshakes, tasty fries skinny or thick, chicken options, and of course the Fatburger. Beer and wine available and live entertainment the first Saturday of every month.“

“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!“

“I just wanted to thank the owner and staff for your generosity and patience yesterday on your busiest day of the year. On a whim I decided to stop by. My family was super happy when I got home. Our boys decided every Friday will be Valentino's. And I couldn't agree more. Thank you again.“

“To the person/ care taker of the little girl who turned in my wallet last night at Dave n busters (Thousand Oaks) I hope those $700 + you took from my wallet are of help to you. You must have needed them that bad to disregards that that was some one else’s hard earned money! I do believe in karma and nature of all act in this life. Hope you use that $$$ wisely due to it was hard work on my end to earn it.“

“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.“

“Walked right in and ordered from the kiosk near the entrance, picked a number, found a seat, got my food relatively fast and enjoyed the best Korean bbq burger I’ve ever had accompanied by the best spicy Korean bbq fries. If you like good food, you will love this place.“

“During this Lent season I've been getting my fix of fish tacos on. I've been to Snapper Jacks several times in the last few weeks. I keep planning to order something different but I'm hooked on the fish tacos. I go between the hard and soft shell. But the soft shell are winning me over. Delicious! Rice and beans tops it off.“

“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.“

“We have done some lunch and learns there, and everyone is so helpful and the food is fantastic! We’ve also sponsored the hole-in-one contest and closest to the pin, and always receive such great support from the staff. It’s a beautiful golf course and we enjoy using the putting greens and driving range at least once a week.“

“Very comfortable leather seats. Adjustable to recline. Went there on a not busy day of the week. Get there early so waiter can take your order for the food if you prefer. Check their menus. So far very pleasant staff. Will go back of course“

“I come here once a year for the past 5 years because I drive up all the way from the South Bay to do reign of terror which is located within this Janss marketplace First time when I came out to that event I got there a little early so I had time to kill and was hungry and I'm going to be honest not much was open because the marketplace looked pretty dead on the weekend and nothing much was open so I ran into this place and honestly it's become tradition now to come here to get drinks and food which to me is both good I've never had issues with service and the vibe is totally what it should be for being a sport dive bar I wish I had pics but honestly I never have taken pics but the prices are decent“

“Hot Motha Clucker exceeds expectations! The chicken tenders, slaw and the Mac n cheese are amazing. My favorite are the chicken sliders served on Martin's Potato Rolls - the best!! The atmosphere is great and the vibe makes the space an ideal spot to meet up and hang out! Food service is on point, food is served hot and fresh and the staff are polite, attentive and provide service with a smile. Check out Hot Motha Clucker in Thousand Oaks - they do not disappoint!!!“

“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.“

“I had been wanting to visit this new, updated Wood Ranch restaurant, at Oaks for a few weeks. The upgrade of the space is beautiful, very comfortable, upscale and dog-friendly.We had a couple burgers (cooked to order), a house salad, sides, and a brisket sandwich. All were delicious and the service was first class. Looking forward to returning, soon.“

“I heard the manager yelling at a girl because she used an outlet to charge her phone when shes a paying customer. It was very rude. There are 3 outlets there and i see the bartenders charge peoples phone in the back of the bar. Was very extremely distasteful. He should turn them all off, McDonalds has outlets for people to charge there phone. Was crazy to watch.“

“Food was delicious. Service was friendly and smiling has they served my food. This is an awesome place to watch sports and is also dog friendly. I will definitely go there again. The patio has Many t.v.s so there is no way you can miss a game and even the Price is Right for morning breakfast. Come and check it out.“

“Beautiful Venue! We loved everything about it, from the food, ceremony, and reception. Kelsey was a wonder Private Event Director for us and communicated with us very well. The venue is beautiful even if there wasn't any decorations. Would definitely recommend.“

“Absolutely and positively the best breakfast spot anywhere in this area. We go here 3x a week and never miss a beat. They have amazing healthy options and their regular options are absolutely to die for. All the servers are beyond professional and absolutely 10/10 in serving and giving hospitality. This is a 5 star breakfast spot.“

“We've been coming to this place for years now and we've seen the quality of ingredients steadily decline, but the service never has. They have a great team working here and the service is top notch. There's such a chill atmosphere here, from the music to the decorations you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. The burgers used to be great, but over time they've gone downhill. The fries are still the same and they have a golden crunchiness on the outside with a soft flavorful inside. The ranch here is can't miss, it's really good. The parking is always easy at this location.“

“Robert is the best. My friend and I went with our 1 year olds. You would expect this to be a tough lunch cuz kids are crazy. But Robert was so warm and kind and accommodating.. He immediately brought our kids little plates with banana and bread. It was nice for them to have a little snack while we waited for the food... He made sure the kids had water and was very attentive to our needs also. Robert, you da man! Two thankful Moms.“

“Yummy taco spot in thousand oaks. Food tasted fresh and delicious. Staff was very friendly. Heard they have taco Tuesdays and live entertainment on the weekends. Definitely plan to come back and check the spot out again for Food, drinks, and dancing.“

“Always delicious food!!!! Portions are large and processed are great! This review is to recognize an outstanding employee. A kind, attentive and hard working employee who helped me out greatly. I didn't know what I wanted or how to order for a very large party. He pointed me in the right direction and showed me a current promo I was thrilled to add on. Thank you BRETT for excellent service!“
