La Hacienda Taqueria — Restaurant in Simi Valley

NOT JUST A MUST-TRY...like, come here every day you possibly can! I cannot emphasize how amazing this restaurant is. The interior is not only beautiful and spectacularly clean, the staff is INCREDIBLE. The manager Carlos is one of the most genuinely kind and beautiful people I have ever met. And the food is wayyy BEYOND what I expected. I was not prepared for this. Everything was PERFECT. We had homemade Jamaica for drinks (so yummy!) and chips and salsa to start. The chips were perfectly seasoned and crisped, and the homemade salsa was AMAZING! My husband ordered the Cali Firefighter burrito with asada, and he loved it so much, it was gone in under 4 minutes, even with it being as big as his face. I ordered the 3 taco plate and tried the asada, pastor and shrimp. The asada had this amazing purposeful crisp that I hadnt experienced before. SO DELICIOUS! And the pastor was absolutely succulent. The shrimp taco was a monster, with gorgeous giant shrimp inside, balanced by the fresh veg and this beautiful sauce. Highly recommend! Next time I will be trying the fish too! On the side, there were also rice and beans, and as a lover of refried, I cannot explain how perfect the beans were. I can now only eat my refried beans from here LOL Please go support this local family owned restaurant, I promise you...

This restaurant is AMAZING! We had delicious food while watching the world series on the beautiful patio. (This was our 2nd visit, and the inside of the restaurant is spotlessly clean and beautiful.) The staff is incredible and the owner is attentive and made sure we were fully taken care of. They started us with perfectly crisped chips and homemade salsa with horchata and jamaica. My wife and I looked at each other in amazement because we both grew up in the valley and this is hands-down the best horchata we've both ever had...and we have had a lot of horchata in our lifetime. Same with the Jamaica. Best we have ever had! We even had to confirm with our server...we said, "IS THIS HOMEMADE??" She said "EVERYTHING is homemade" and smiled. We were mindblown. It got even better when the food came. My wife ordered the quesabirria taco plate and I had the Birria Torta. Both plates were PERFECT. And we ordered the plantains for desert, which came with a condensed milk icing situation....which was sooo good. My son had a very happy time chomping on those. Please go have lunch or dinner and support this family-owned establishment, you won't be...
