Best WLM Reviews

Taqueria El Maizal is an average Mexican restaurant. However, considering it is located in Simi Valley and compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area, this is the best one. The fresh corn tortillas are a big plus for me, and I will definitely visit again.
Such a great Mexican restaurant. The surface is so great. They are such wonderful people. The food is always delicious. I've probably eaten there about 18 times and it's never been bad. They're sauces. Great. They're fresh. Tortillas are great.
Favorite place to get Mexican in town.
Owner was a worker here who bought out from previous owner, so you know he cares about the place and customers. You really feel like family when you come here.
Ordering is simple, go up to the counter and then sit down and wait for your food to be brought to you.
I almost always go for the whole fried fish. It's nice and smokey and not oily at all. You pull pieces off and eat with tortillas, rice, and beans. Will really fill you up. Don't worry about getting dirty and really get in there. And don't forget the softest part, the pieces behind the cheeks!
Excellent and authentic tacos with great salsas. The roja with roasted tomatoes, the verde with small tomatillos. Small touches like the wall murals and decor add to the atmosphere.
Best Mexican food in Simi Valley. Great little family operation. Their breakfast is probably the best thing they do. Best breakfast burrito, and huevos rancheros I’ve ever had. Their rice and beans are excellent. Love their burritos, shrimp tostadas, shrimp tacos, and tacos durados with el pastor. Hector and his wife always make you feel so welcome. Highly recommend and I’m a very tough critic. Have worked in restaurants for 16 years.
We stopped by for lunch, and the tacos were amazing, I highly recommend this tacos ỳ burritos to all of you.
Salsa made fresh daily in house, aguas frescas, corn tortillas that don’t fall apart while holding your taco in your hand. What more could you want?
3 tacos and an agua fresca for $11 left me feeling more than satisfied. El Maizal also offers a selection of beers if that’s what you’re looking for. I’m grateful to have found this place for a delicious, price-conscious lunch.
Great spot. I'm starting to believe that good Mexican food just doesn't exist outside of California or Mexico. I struggle to find it anywhere else but it seems like every town in the state of CA has at least two epic spots for it.
I ordered the Carne Asada Burrito and Nachos and both were outstanding. The meat was perfectly seasoned and delicious. The blending of flavors were very tasty and the service was great. We'll hit this spot whenever we're in town.
