Ruperto's Kitchen — Restaurant in Thousand Oaks

Ruperto's has only been open for 3 weeks. My wife and I stopped in tonight for a delicious dinner. The service is done with a big smile and the food makes for smiles all around. Tried the chile verde, A+. My wife had the enchilada which was made with a touch of cinnamon. Never had that before but it works. Another fun fact; you know how restaurants add that slice of tomato to their side salad? It looks kind of sad and you eat it out of pity? I'm almost positive someone grew my side salad tomato in their backyard. That right there is worth...

$10 for a burrito that you’d think it would be for a child. Ordered tacos , says they include everything but didn’t , didn’t have cilantro or onion just meat and tortilla. No salsa either you legit have to order a massive salsa cup to get some. Meat is poor quality. Good horchata but honestly the worst Mexican restaurant I’ve ever been too. I guess if you want good service only eat there but still probably poor quality. I gave them place two tries after being very disappointed the first time but the second was just as bad....

We had lunch here yesterday. What a great mom-and-pop place! Ruperto is the sweetest man. I had tostadas and my husband had a wet burrito. Both were excellent. The tortilla chips were the best I’ve ever had. They were obviously homemade and they were crispy and maybe had just a hint of sweetness? Not sure but they were awesome. Salsa good, and Ruperto made sure we were happy and didn’t need anything. One ding for atmosphere: tv was on too loud. Place was clean, prices were ok but everything is so expensive now....
