45 Best Mexican Restaurants near Fillmore

“We go here at least once a week...from Oxnard! Best Tacos around....Asada, Al Pastor, Birria....all the best! Worth the drive!“

“Legit Mexican food in Fillmore. We ordered a variety of tacos and a bean & cheese burrito. Everything was seasoned well. The carne asada was made with excellent quality meat becaise there was zero bone, gristle, or fat. Just 100% soft, tender deliciousness. Salsas were good, too. Would definitely recommend!“

“Always amazing! Never disappointed“

“Saw this place in the late spring when me & my wife were in town for a day trip but didn't eat here. So glad we came back. We were seated quickly and given chips & salsa. Our server was pleasant & welcoming. Next came the Mimosas and they were perfect. My wife & I both had the namesake Fiesta Plate which is taquitos (cut in half) wirh your choice of beef or chicken topped with chips & cheese quesadillas with salsa & quac in the middle. It was next level! Prices are really good also for the quality of the food. They're right in Fillmore's cool little downtown. Will definitely come back.“

“We were headed for Ojai this afternoon but a roadblock through the hills changed our plans. We checked out Santa Paula but nothing really stood out, so we headed towards Filmore and discovered Los Altos Mexican Restaurant - a hidden gem on Santa Clara Street. We really enjoyed our lunch with our patio seating and delicious food and margaritas. We highly recommend this restaurant and are glad our adventure led us to this terrific place!“

“Delicious food! I had the nachos with carnitas, excellent.“

“Found this restaurant on a whim. Glad I did. 1st was the awesome smell when I walked in. Nice menu, just enough not to overwhelm you. I ordered the chile relleno plate. Best I've tasted, with a sauce that included red an green bell peppers and onions with fried Japanese chiles. Great beans as well. On my way through Fillmore I will be stopping by“

“Portions are generous, price is quite reasonable for what you get! Drive thru service was FLAWLESS. I will definitely be back. Favorite items:CRUNCHWRAP SUPREME, no seasoned beef, no nacho cheese, add onion, add steak, add spicy ranch sauce.NACHO CHEESE DORITOS® LOCOS TACOS SUPREME, no seasoned beef, add chicken, add onion, add Mexican pizza sauce.“

“Tacos de camarones y ceviche! Muy sabrosos :)“

“I’ve eaten at a lot of restaurants. I love Mexican food. I’ve even inspected restaurants for 30 years. My cousin ordered the Carnitas for a birthday party. It was the best I’ve ever had. Hands-down.“

“A small speckle of the Oaxacan cuisine as is recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, highlighting its deep cultural roots and significance. This recognition underscores the importance of preserving traditional Mexican cuisine, particularly as practiced in Oaxaca, with its unique ingredients, cooking techniques, and social customs!!!“

“Had a great meal and super hospitable environment. Jorge and Dorothy were very cool and really lovely people. Can’t recommend this place enough. You’re letting yourself down if you don’t get here.“

“I come here 3+ times a week and it never disappoints. The food is consistently amazing—fresh, flavorful, and authentic every single visit. The staff always makes me feel welcome and they remember my usual order, which says a lot about how much they care about their customers. The service is fast, the portions are generous, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. This place has become my go-to spot and I honestly can’t recommend it enough. If you’re looking for great Mexican food, this is the place!“

“This food is the best mexican food I've ever had in my life. I've been coming here for like 9 years since I was younger and oh my gosh it is so good i used to live in Simi valley and moved and I haven't had it for like 2 years and I've been trying to find a New Mexican restaurant where I live now and coming back too this from all the other Mexican restaurants just makes me realize how much better this food is compared to the others like I dont know what they put in the food but it is one of a kind.“

“Great food and service. Walked right in and was seated. My son ordered a burrito and I ordered the steak fajitas. The burrito was ginormous, he couldn't finish it. The fajitas were delicious. The steak was perfection! Definitely will stop by again! Hidden gem for sure!“

“A great place for lunch! nice!!!! 5 stars!!!!!!“

“A transcendental experience... I should explain.
Started the morning by hiking up to the punch bowls beginning @ 6am. About half way up I ingested 1gm of mushrooms. As I arrived to my destination about an hour later, things were feeling great. I hung out about half an hour and then began to make my way back, rolling along happily. I arrived back @ my vehicle @ 10:45am and then made my way to Cocina 1912. As I pulled up and then stepped out of my vehicle, I noticed my flask was in the door pocket. Knowing I was about to order a piping hot bowl of menudo, I took a good swing before I made my way in. I ordered my meal and when it arrived at the table, i added lots of pepper flakes, some lemon and oregano, and onion and cilantro as well. By god, by the time I was 1/4 of the into it, I was in a trance. Just sweatin' and feeling the meal wash over me like a wave. A wave of calm and nourishment. All the way through I was buzzing. I finished up and it took me about another 10 min to feel like I could stand and not get woozy.

10 outta 10, would eat here again.“

“Always a good California burrito and tacos. My family orders to go all the time. Best option close by in Somis! The owner Alex is very nice! Thank you for bringing your truck to Somis ?

Parking: Park at an angle along the nursery and we’ve never had an issue finding a spot.“

“Best Food in SIMI Valley“

“Amazing food! Friendly staff, very clean!“

“Great fresh Mexican food. I highly recommend this restaurant. One of my favorite spots to go for some authentic food.“

“The best Tri tip n Chicken anywhere! Love the owners and staff. I drive 20 miles just to eat the chips n salsa 😛“

“My Mom and I were in Moorpark for the afternoon (from Oxnard) and happened, by chance, to land here—glad we did!

All the various meats you could want are on offer, with shrimp and fish dishes available, too. We considered the prices reasonable.

Mom ordered a taco salad; I had a big plate of nachos with the meat on top split: half carnitas and half Chile Verde [no other eatery has made a point of offering me this half & half option, btw].

A well stocked, complimentary, self-serve display of salsas, chips, and marinated vegetables was much appreciated.

Our dishes were promptly brought out to our table. Mom's taco salad was not large to look at, but was packed full—she kept commenting about how delicious and fresh everything was (I agree) and enjoyed her beef. My nachos were loaded: carnitas were crispy, not greasy, and with more flavor than I have experienced at other places; the Chile Verde was succulent and scrumptious with a tangy sauce.

For unpretentious Mexican fare, Taqueria El Tapatio was really a delightful surprise for us. We're not Moorpark locals, but will be back when we can.“

“Excellent food and service! We had a delicious lunch and the service was terrific. Owner is very nice and even served us! Highly recommend!“

“This place is a hidden gem in south Phoenix“

“I've been meaning to try the other places in the shopping center but it's hard to pass up Gaby's. Coworkers and I drive over there from Simi on our lunch break but it's easy with being able to call in our orders and have it ready when we arrive.“

“Legit street tacos. Authentic flavor for barbacoa, cabeza, and lengua tacos. I ordered the babacoa plate to go and the rice and beans tasted just like my mom makes. The barbacoa was savory, herb-y, and tender. They were selling these big avocados at the counter for only a dollar, I bought one and they offered to slice it up to add to the tacos I ordered to eat in. Warm and welcoming owners. Great food.

Parking: Small parking lot next to the restaurant, plenty of street parking.“

“The food is absolutely amazing. The fresh tortillas are delicious and my conchinitas combo plate was perfect.

They were insanely busy when we arrived, with the line to order going out the door and down the sidewalk. It was about a half hour wait to order and another 30-45 minutes for our food once we did order. Definitely worth the wait though.

They do run out of things due to high demand and the barbacoa that we were hoping to try was gone by noon on Sunday. We will definitely be back so we can try the famous barbacoa.

The only thing I didn't love was how loud the music videos were. It was very distracting.“

“Ive only bought breakfast burritos from Carlas, they do have so much more though. Machaca burrito is my favorite the bacon, sausage and chorizo burritos are also great. The portal and taco are also very good per friends. Ill keep going back“

“Food was good I love their salsa We had a very sweet waiter It was a nice evening celebrating my daughter’s birthday 🎂🍀⭐️💕“

“We had them cater my daughters birthday party with a taco bar. It came with 3 kinds of meats, tortillas along with all of the fixings and then some. All of my guests kept getting 3 and 4 plates of food. We have been in Moorpark for years and had not heard of them, until we were referred to them by the owners of Jaro’s (another local Moorpark eatery). I highly recommend you try and support this great local spot.“

“I have never had a bad experience here. Both bartenders have been bartending since the 1980s, and make great drinks that never lack flavor or alcohol. Also, the pricing is right for the area. We have been to other bars in the area off of Los Angeles Ave and they were overpriced and drinks were water-downed trash. Jalisco is a chill local spot and people are personable there. A+“

“10/08/2023... worst experience for breakfast. Food was bad, customer service was worse but even more terrible was the attitude given by the manager and waitress. Absolutely no F's were given. Waited over 30 minutes only to be told they were out of the menudo... on a Sunday at noon.“

“This location is a perfect stop on my way home from a long trip. I love the tortilla soup with red hot sauce-yum, it just warms me up.“

“I had a carnitas burrito. It was kind of hard to order cuz thier menu doesn't include plain rice and meat burrito. They found it hard to understand that all I wanted was the pork, then some rice and finally sour cream wrapped up in a tortilla. I told her I'd add the salsa myself as I ate it. Once she found away to take my order everything was fine. They seem to think they need to reinvent the burrito...if they made it my way they wouldnt know handle the amount of business they'd get.. but not my problem. Till then the carnitas was awesome and I really enjoyed my burrito..“

“Great tacos and ranch and tacos and ranch“

“The food is alway good and very filling..“

“THEY HAVE AN AMAZING EMPLOYEE JANYN SHES ALWAYS GREAT!“

“Everything is fine, the detail is that it takes a little while to serve. The food has that homemade flavor, they sell Mexican and Salvadoran food. It is in a small town with very old buildings such as the train station. And how nice it is that everyone knows each other.

Parking: It is on a street where there are more shops, old ones that look like they are from the old West, and they park on the street.

Kid-friendliness: It is suitable for children because it is family-friendly.“

“Best pan Dulce in Santa Barbara customer service Very Friendly 😀 Visiting from LA“

“I order here often. Love the food.
Four stars because the Only negative is that since the price increase the portions have gotten A LOT SMALLER. THEY ARE HALF THE SIZE THEY USED TO BE.
Some people say the to go orders tend to be smaller as opposed to you standing there and watching them make it.“

“I stopped by this Kalaveras to take advantage of their happy hour. When I came, they were not busy at all. There was tons of parking spots near the front and barely any other guest inside. I sat at the bar area so I could watch the soccer game playing.

I got the spicy buffalo wings from the happy hour menu. I think it's a great deal because you get eight bone in buffalo wings. They also give chips and salsa as complimentary.

I like the chips and salsa, it had a nice spice to it. My buffalo wings came out quick and it was good to me. When I sat at the bar, the bartender used a fly zapper swatter to get the small flies around the bar area. It would discourage some guest but it didn't bother me.

The customer service I received here was great, I didn't have any issues when I was dining at the restaurant. There was no loud music that Kalaveras is known for when I was there but it could be because they save it for the night time.“

“Quick service Order was perfect!!!“

“this was the best del taco I've ever eaten at. clean and everyone was very nice“
