The food is even better than the service. Fushion Grill has some of the best food I have ever tasted with good, fresh ingredients. You can tell it is made with love and care for the customer. Overall this place is fabulous, I have visited a few times over the years and every time is better than the last.”

“Friendly family owned business. I work at St.Johns Pleasant Valley Hospital and they donated delicious meals for all the employees during the COVID crisis. I will always support them because of their kindness and thoughtfulness. Extra bonus is that the food is so delicious!”

“This is our second great date night at the mighty axe and thanks to JT’s axe throwing tutorial, we managed to pretend that we were professionals when in reality, we are just lucky to hit the board. My wrists are messed up right now, so he was really helpful in helping me find a way to throw without causing pain. I early recommend this place and JT! Be back soon!”

“I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review for Side Street, I am always in a happy food comma post-brunch and forget. Side Street has long been my absolute favorite restaurant in Ventura County! When it comes to the menu at Side Street, you genuinely can't make a wrong choice. Personally, I'm hooked on their country fried steak and waffles. Hands down the best gravy you'll ever have! There's something about the way they make their coffee that has me drinking half a pot of coffee I swear. When I go out to eat, I expect the food to be better than what I could make myself at home. It's a standard that so many breakfast/lunch restaurants seem to miss, but Side Street consistently exceeds these expectations without fail. What sets Side Street apart is not only the outstanding food but also their commitment to keeping prices reasonable. You definitely get more than your money's worth here! So many of their dishes come with 1) eggs, 2) toast or biscuits & gravy, AND 3) home fries or hash browns. It's a breakfast lover's dream come true! In the post-COVID era, the closure of so many beloved family-owned restaurants was heartbreaking. Side Street not only weathered the storm but continues to thrive. Stepping into Side Street feels like entering a home away from home. Suzanne, the owner and founder, is a constant presence, working alongside her husband, Ryan, and son, Drew. This is as family-owned as it gets, and that authenticity resonates in every corner of the restaurant. What truly makes Side Street special is the family environment. Every member of the staff makes the atmosphere so welcoming. It's evident that they take pride in providing exceptional service, making each visit a memorable experience. In a time where good, family-owned establishments are hard to come by, Side Street stands out as a beacon of what going to a restaurant should be. From the warm atmosphere to the delicious food and impeccable service, this restaurant will always be my go-to. If you haven't experienced the magic of Side Street, it's about time you do! Truly a hidden gem of Ventura County!”

“I took this pic of the dealers choice drink over their drink menu today… we asked for a Mezcal base and this is it! It was delicious!!!”

“Food ? sandwiches ? are deliciously ? expensive ? .
Parking is like a battlefield. A handful of them are entitled Beemers swooping in for the parking slot.
I guess that's what I get for driving a small Jap car ?, you no see me, people are people.
The lines are long.
The preparation of the sandwich is even longer.
If I'm hungry, I'd go elsewhere.
Other than that, they are worth every penny waiting for them delicious sandwiches!
Keep up the great work, y'all.
Parking: I had to park in the "Pinocchio" section”
“We had a party of three come here last night, And it was a really wonderful experience. Our food was delicious as we’ve come to expect from Olive Garden. But the highlight was absolutely our waiter, Marcus (If that’s how you spell it). He was incredibly attentive, very accommodating, And had a smile on his face the whole night. My wife is a waitress (And a damn good one) so we really pay attention to service. Give that man a raise!”
“Absolutely amazing experience at Greco’s Pizza! The moment I walked in the door, Ricardo and his wife welcomed me with the warmest, most genuine hospitality. You can instantly tell this is a family-owned spot run by an authentic Italian family, and that makes all the difference. The place is super clean, well-kept, and gives off those classic neighborhood pizzeria vibes.
Now the pizza… WOW. Freshly made, full of flavor, and everything you'd hope for in authentic New York-style Italian pizza. You can’t go wrong here. The crust, the sauce, the cheese—it’s all on point. I left full, happy, and already thinking about my next visit.
Highly, highly recommend!”
“Located inside of Nordstrom at The Oaks Mall (on the 2nd floor), this restaurant is a nice little hideaway from all typical dining choices available when I work in TO. It's familar, and also nice, but not pretentious. The food and drinks are consistently good and on par with the other locations, and the service is great ( service may be even better than some other locations). Thank you for the pleasant service, wonderful food, and hideaway vibes in TO”
“Fresh, no skimping, great options, friendly service, order always correct, open all day. Best sushi spot in East Ventura County/Conejo!”
“The desserts were fantastic. Great service and delicious kabobs.”

“The chips and salsa hit the spot! If you're in the mood for drinks, this place is a solid choice—especially during happy hour. The food is tasty, though it wouldn’t make my personal top ten. That said, if you're after a lively sports bar vibe with good eats and great drinks, this is definitely the place to be”

“Small mom and pop type of establishment which delivers on those burrito/taco cravings. Reasonably priced and you also get a good amount of food. Good guac and homemade chips. The handmade tortillas are killer and definitely add to the quality of the taste. More of a casual experience or pick up. There is indoor seating though its somewhat limited. They do have a salsa bar with 3 different types of salsa as well as onions, cilantro, limes, pickled onions/veg., etc...”
“My family and I stopped by for breakfast after a night of celebrating and needed something simple and something solid. Not only did we get that but we got the best service and smiles all around! Eggs N things is a well oiled machine and there’s no surprise why they had a packed house.”
“Very much enjoy this place. Only go here on occasion because it is pricey but the smoothies and bowls are delicious and very filling! I got the “mystic” smoothie which had cinnamon, dates, vanilla and a ton of other stuff. My husband got the “pink” something and it tasted like fresh pineapple. Very good !”
“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.”

“We are from LA where arguably the best Mexican food is in the state and let me tell you this place is TOP TIER.
If you’re looking for fresh tacos with the authentic MX taste fresh prepared THIS is it.
Every meat I tasted (my husband got carnitas, pastor, and carne asada) was super fresh, seasoned perfectly, tender, chips were fresh, fresh lemons, not limes (another sign of authenticity imo, iykyk).
The salsas had authentic spice levels, everything.
10/10 for a solid taquero joint. Forget EPL or any other fast food place.
My husband got 5 HUGE tacos for $15!
straight fire, end of rant haha.”
“Para el dueño: Cual es su regla de regreso cuando se vende un producto que está echado a perder? El Viernes 10/21 compramos comida como muchas veces ya que somos clientes desde hace 4 años. Uno de los productos fue una jaiba imitación, la pedimos en la carnicería y no la dieron en una bolsa, al llegar a casa nos dimos cuenta que estaba echada a perder, no pensamos que fuera un problema, nunca nos había pasado y este producto no es de su tienda solo lo revenden. Hablamos a la tienda y les informamos de lo qué pasó, la joven nos dijo que lo lleváramos para de nos devolvieran el dinero. La tienda cierra a las 8 y no pudimos. Al siguiente día fuimos y la joven que estaba según ella de manager, se porto súper grosera, nos gritó que porque no nos habíamos fijado en la fecha de caducidad, que porque nos habíamos esperado hasta el siguiente día y después nos aventó el dinero y nos dijo que nos fuéramos. Esta actitud es inaceptable, dudo que el dueño quiera sepa o esté de acuerdo con la actitud de esta mujer. No volveremos a esta tienda y haremos todo lo posible para que le gente sepa de esto y ya no compren aquí.”
“We went here for a quick late dinner. The food was tasty but nothing special. I think I may try a few more items though- it may be that my dish was not the best. I had a shrimp taco, some of the breaded shrimp had a bit more breading than ideal. The Mexican street corn though was quite tasty and they provided a good amount for the serving.”
“The chips and salsa hit the spot! If you're in the mood for drinks, this place is a solid choice—especially during happy hour. The food is tasty, though it wouldn’t make my personal top ten.

“This is where we get cakes and cookies when we want to level up our hosting game or show up at someone’s house with something gorgeous and decadent. Definitely a huge step up from your average grocery store bakery and that’s reflected in the pricing, but depending on your needs, totally worth it.
Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free bakery items too.”
“Brought a group of 12 in last night. The service was excellent!! We all loved our food. Our waitress was perfect. We hardly had to ask for anything. She even split up our checks. We'll be back!! Highly recommend!”

“Joe & his staff were amazing! Very kind, welcoming, and attentive. Amazing service and amazing food. The food was delicious. The rice was one of the best rice I ever had. Very authentic Mexican food. Definitely will be going back for more. Best Mexican food in TO and very good customer service!”
“Went to robeks with my husband and got two drinks to share. My husband normally likes the fruit stuff and I like more of the rich stuff. I got the “nuts about protein” which was fantastic. It’s Coffee, Peanut Butter, Cinnamon, Honey, Frozen Yogurt, Low Calorie Active Water, Multi-Vitamin and Whey Protein. My husband got the “big Wednesday” which is Peach, Strawberries, Banana, Orange Sherbet, Pineapple Sherbet, and Papaya Juice. It was very sweet and he loved it! We will definitely be back as we prefer this place over some of the other smoothie places”
“I gave been away a long time. And miss you. My husband and two boys grew up eating there every week. The best pizza and the best salad I had every eeek and miss. You were family.to us.

“This Thai restaurant is in a great location, offering delicious dishes full of flavor at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is friendly, and the food is consistently fresh and satisfying, perfect for casual dining or takeout.”
“I came here with my wife for a casual weeknight meal and had a great experience. The food came out quickly and was hot. We ordered bok choy, soup, dumplings, egg rolls, sweet-and-sour shrimp, and rice — more than enough for both of us. The soup dumplings were savory, the shrimp had a nice tang, and the bok choy was deliciously garlicky. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Sunset Terrace is my "GO TO" social and sports bar in Thousand Oaks and I frequent 3 times a week. By far they have the best happy hour on weekdays 3 - 7 pm. (Drinks - 50% off / Food - 25% off). They have plenty of pool tables, big screen TVs, and the only bowling alley (4 lanes) in town. The crowd is mostly locals who welcome newbies and make them feel right at home. The bartenders and servers are friendly and efficient and I rate their food a #10. The have security and I like the fact that never have I seen a fight there. Give it a try and I promise you can't go wrong. Thanks for reading this, Bruce Love”
“This is the first time I've been in the shop and purchased anything, and I really love this place! The employees are very knowledgeable, the prices are reasonable for the quality of the product, and the overall vibe of the store is peaceful and enjoyable. I live out of town, but the next time I come back I'm making another visit. Would definitely recommend.”
“Awesome food. Nice workers. Sometimes we are quick to complaint about the service but we are seldom compliment a good job the restaurant and workers provide us. With this pandemic we need to let them know how we appreciate them and to thank them for providing excellent food and a WOW service..”

“Ribs and chocolate cake, and sweet smashed potatoes and mac n cheese were superb. As was the tri tip salad. Service was the best. I wish I could teach ALL restaurants how to make regular mashed potatoes, especially if they aren't serving gravy. Never the less, 5 stars.”
