22 Best Mexican Restaurants in Thousand Oaks

“The Cliff Diver Restaurant and Bar is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, and the owner clearly takes pride in offering an amazing drink selection every cocktail we tried was top-notch. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. A special shoutout to our server, Josh, who went above and beyond with his service — super knowledgeable, personable, and made great recommendations. Definitely one of the best dining experiences around. Can’t wait to come back.“

“This place is one of a kind. From the atmosphere to the customer service. Walking in you see the amazing mural they have on the back wall but you also get an instant aroma of the delicious food they have brewing. Jesse’s friendly face at the counter invites you in and his knowledge of the food leaves you conflicted on what to order. I had a classic, their menudo. It came with handmade tortillas and their taco bar has the most flavorful red salsa I’ve ever had. Perfect combination for the menudo. I also had an agua fresca. Their cucumber mint was refreshing. My girlfriend had their pozole. Although I didn’t taste it I couldn’t help but steal one of her tostadas, slap on some of that red salsa and some cheese and sour cream. To finish it off we had a plátano frito with lechera. Honestly, everything was to die for. Will definitely be back for more. We were left with a craving for their specialty, their huarache.“

“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“

“I’ve been going to this place since I was in high school and that was over 10 years ago. I’m happy they are still in business and going strong. The nachos are always a classic and a favorite of mine. Additionally the salads are good too. Yesterday I tried the 3 amigos burrito with my beans on the side and I added pico. It was delicious. It has peppers, carnitas, guacamole, rice and beans. The flavor of the pork was so good and the burrito had good proportion and filling ratios. My fiance got the same thing but with steak and “enchilada” style which comes wet . We both devoured about half and saved half for later. We will definitely be back !“

“What to do when SoCal becomes SoBoring? Been going off and on to Southern California that I think I wore out my curiosity of the place. If you live in SoCal, what do they do for a break?In Toronto, if you get bored and want a weekend of craziness, you head to Montreal. If you want peace and quiet, you head north. Well San Fran is 5 hours away and a change of pace and weather would be good right? I'm packed up in the car already and my SoCal friend is available to make the trip. Cool! It's an expedition - like Miner'49'ers!“

“I love Cafe Rio. I came to the Thousand Oaks location on Moorpark Road. There food is great and better than Chipotle. The staff is very kind and professional. My only issue is that the mens restroom was disgusting. It looks like they haven't cleaned the restroom in over a week. Also the outside tables were disgusting as well. Trash, food, under the tables which of course attracts flies and bugs.“

“Always love the double salad.Great customer service and clean lobby.“

“Someone recommended this place, and they weren’t wrong. The bakery itself is very good, tried their pan con chicharrón and that was amazing. They have plenty of food options even at early hours. Their bread was very delicious as well. Plenty of parking, very friendly staff.“

“I have been living near for close to a decade. I don't know how long this taco truck has been here. I do remember when I moved here, there was a teenager k that I found too expensive so I never tried it. Part of the problem is that I knew other places that I'd rather go eat at. Now a days, either said places aren't as good and those that are, are simply too far of a drive.

That is how I ended up coming here for the first time and was I glad I did. The prices arw too bad and their tacos are great. I got tacos of carne asada and chorizo. Both were extremely good and it is hard to find taco trucks with good of these meats.

Don't be afraid to stop by. When I did, there was no one around. Before I knew it, the place got packed. All kinds of people came to eat or apparently ordered ahead.“
