From the first time I went there I was into their food! My favorites are the Buenos Dias taco on corn tortilla & the Cowboy Taco on Corn! I love their chips and different kinds of salsas! One of my faves for Matcha Lattes! They have a variety of options, from tacos to burgers to beer! Service is always on point! The ambiance is usually lively and upbeat, I'm a regular! read more

We don't usually come here for the food but recently a family friend tipped us off on the smash burgers so my wife and I split one to see what the hype was about. Glad we did, it was pretty legit. Juicy, well-smashed, and hit the spot. A little on the smaller side so if you're hungry you might want to consider getting a few patties. But honestly, the cold brew coffees are what keeps us coming back. The pistachio with Kona cloud is my go-to. Fun place to bring the kiddos to as their soft serve portions are genuinely generous -- no skimping here. Our little ones are always happy walking out the door, which makes the whole stop a win. If you're looking for great coffee, a sweet treat for the family, and a relaxed local vibe, Makenna Beach House is a great spot local Simi Valley spot! read more

Makenna Beach House - Pistachio Cold Brew - Tacos Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Stopped for coffee on a Saturday morning on our way out of town. Our first time at this location. I ordered my usual Iced Mint Mojito then waited 15 minutes for it to be finished. The place was moderately busy but it seems the staff was overwhelmed. Got on the road and was disappointed to find that they left out the sugar and there were only small bits of mint leaves. I'll stick with the Westlake Village store where the crew is friendly, calm and works like a well managed team. read more

Service was friendly and drinks were just all right. It's very hard to find drink spot where the Matcha is made right instead of just thrown in as powder or under whisked. Felt a little silly being in a beach house inspired place with country music playing so the ambience was a little bit confusing but very on brand for this part of town. They seemed really busy and lots of food orders so they've got to be doing something right! I will be back to try again! read more

Makenna Beach House - Tacos Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Love Makenna coffee so I stopped by the Beach House. Amazing prices and I adore the large selection of sauces! Also, the vibe of this restaurant is rare to find in Simi -- chill, but not boring! I loved the music they were playing and felt like a great place for a younger crowd to hang out! The staff were all teenagers and I think it's great to keep the vibe of Makenna young & fresh but if they could be a bit more inviting and attentive to customers that is my only critique! I had to wait a bit to get someone's attention to grab my food and ask a question. read more

These newer, mahi-mahi fish tacos are so darn good! My sister and I went for lunch and we went back for dinner! That's how good they were. Love the coleslaw and how it was seasoned and the dressing. Love love love this location and their food. Try their protein drinks if you haven't yet. They are amazing and will get you through a meal. Also the asada Fries are my son's favorite. read more

ITS FREEZING IN HERE . It will be wonderful in July , not so much in Decembrrrrr. Good thing i had a coat in the car . The tacos here are amazing! I had the Lonestar and the brisket was so incredibly tender . a tiny bit dry but nothing a little sauce didn't solve . The Pier is to die for teriyaki shrimp and pineapple the seasoning nicey spicey exactly how i like it ! I went back for seconds on the Pier . The shrimp was perfect not rubbery or overcooked . The only thing i would improve and i'll ask for next time , double tortilla on the Pier as it's pretty juicy and mine fell apart . It's a finger food so i indulged . For sure I'll be back to try the smash burgers and some of the other tacos . Loved it! Kate and Manny Peyton were terrific hosts ! Great staff here Kate gave great recommendations for dinner and Manny was on it for round 2 of the pier . Food came out really faster than expected . we will for sure be back! read more

Great coffee. Incredible smash burgers, the double bacon smash is my favorite. Add chili's and raw onions and the experience becomes sublime. Forget your old burger joints, Makenna's is that good. I'm hooked on the Maui Latte with 3/4 Maui Milk instead of full strength. Just so good. Had to treat my pack so I picked up a couple of Mahi Mahi tacos for my besties, after all, when I eat, they eat too. Let me tell you, my babies ain't shy when it comes to great seafood, and neither am I. After all, I'm their official food taster, gotta check for bones or forbidden ingredients, nothing adverse here and the fish was delish! read more

We've been here many times and it NEVER disappoints. The restaurant is clean, the smash burgers are OUT OF THIS WORLD, the fries are bomb, the shrimp tacos are great and the garbage can breakfast tacos are absolutely delicious. Feeling sluggish? I'll have a sugar free Red Bull starburst. Yum. But today? Today is about Spencer. This young man at the front counter has THE BEST attitude. SO positive, so friendly, and his energy is infectious. Kudos to the staff and management team here, because clearly, these employees are doing something right. read more

If you already like Makenna Koffee co, then you'll appreciate the new Makenna Beach House. Now you can grab your favorite drink and pair it with a solid meal, all at prices that feel really fair for what you get. I tried two tacos - vegan and shrimp. The shrimp taco was really good, and the salsa bar with multiple green sauces definitely leveled up the flavor. It's not the best tacos I've ever had, but it's tasty, filling, and perfect when you want something quick and easy. The space is clean, colorful, and casual with both indoor and outdoor seating. Service is fast, pay-at-the-counter style, and there's parking in the small plaza. Great for a quick lunch or dinner stop while getting your coffee fix. read more

Large menu, can be kind of intimidating with all the options for both food and drinks. Tacos are small but there are a variety of them. Lots of different salsas at the self serve salsa bar. My favorites are the burritos. Smash burgers are good too. My family likes the fire fries. Seasonal coffee options are always interesting. Their online menu shows pictures for each item. They also have non-coffee matcha, smoothies, & red bull mixed drinks. P.S. they have really good cookies here too! read more

Service was polite and prompt. Food was delicious. I got a double smash burger with fries, but my friends got tacos. No regrets for any of those options. Their burritos are a worthy choice as well. Don't be afraid to ask for sauce. Usually it's out next to the drinks, but if not, they keep small containers for when requested. read more

Establishment was clean, ordering was fast and easy but menu was small and can be hard to read if you don't have great eye sight. Food came out in minutes and had a big selection of sauces for your tacos or burgers. Initially came in for tacos and then realized that one taco for $4-$5 was outrageous so I got a smash burger because I thought the pricing was a bit more sensible. Smash burger is nothing to write home about and is smaller than it seems. Flavor tasted like my dad made something similar on his grill at home. Carne asada fries seems to also lack flavor but is the right amount of flavor for the people of Simi Valley. Thin cut fries with a weird imbalance of fries to sauce. I prefer half and half but they were really heavy on the toppings. Would come again if I really just needed a burger that wasn't in n out but I typically go to Makenna for their coffee. I'll come again to try out their burritos. TL;DR: the food is made appropriately for the demographic of Simi Valley. read more

Went to Makenna's to get some coffee and learned this place specifically is much more! I decided to get a cookie butter latte and it was pretty good!

Came for the Smash Burger a friend recommended to me, but wowzers, saw they have several tacos that piqued my interest. -I've had my share of good tacos in my life, but never expected a taco to knock my socks off. -couldn't decide which one to order , so ended up getting 3 1-The Texan- Brisket, oh yeah! 2--Mahi Mahi- nicely seasoned and grilled not fried. 3-- The Garbage Can- don't let the name deter you,clever mix of ingredients, And a whole fried egg on top! --The most flavorful Smashburger I've ever had, my friend was right on to recommend it. Will be back for a burrito next, and I'm told the Fire Fries are a must, and when the weather warms up, gotta get a Hawaiian shaved Ice. Service from Phoenix was outstanding, she reminded us of all the salsas at the bar. Whatta great find. From reading fellow Yelpers reviews, the coffee is legendary. Prices Are good,love how they wrap the tacos, helps keep them warm, makes them "LOOK" small, but all the stuff is nicely crammed in there. I have lots to comeback for, guess I'll be dining for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. read more

This place was recommended to me by my neighbor. So far I have only tried some of the coffee drinks. I enjoyed the blended drink I ordered. And it was reasonably priced. My neighbors ordered quite a few different tacos that smelled amazing. I will definitely be going back soon to try the food. The menu is so big. It's really hard to choose because there are so many items. Hopefully soon they will have a big menu to view. They were just taped up in the walls so it was hard to view with two people and look at them standing in line. I felt pressured to hurry up and order because of the set up. But the employees were very friendly and helpful. The salsa bar they had sounded awesome. They had quite a few to choose from. The flavors sounded great. The only thing I Didn't like is the salsa bar is not near the employees to kind of monitor. It's off to the side and completely open. It just kinda weirded me out. I will definitely go back to try some more menu items, food and coffee wise. I enjoy the nice outdoor seating they offer. read more

I ordered the Asada & Shrimp Burrito, if you like small chunks of FAT & 3 Large Shrimp then this is the burrito for you, the worst tasteless fatty burrito I ever ate in Simi Valley, the Salsa's where all watered down, Taco Bell is delicious compared to this place. I went based off the reviews! The Java Chiller was great but that was it. One & Done!. If people are paying you $16 plus for a burrito get some steak with some meat, not a steak with more fat than meat. read more

I stopped by Makenna Beach House for a midday coffee. This location has a variety of food and drink options. I saw online that they had an iced horchata latte and that's what I ordered. Although it was on the sweeter side, I enjoyed the overall flavor. I would prefer a little more coffee flavor and less sweetness. Makenna Coffee is known for their Maui milk so most of their drinks are very sweet, which some people prefer. I enjoyed the Kona foam and cinnamon on top of the iced horchata latte. The employees were friendly and I had a great first experience grabbing my coffee to-go. read more

A fun combination of offerings. They have good dairy alternatives for coffee and other drinks. I love the hot chocolate with oat milk My date loves the matcha latte.The tacos are cool and different though they could use some seasoning. I like the cowboy taco. Salsa is decent.

I love this coffee shop the Maui latte is amazing if you love creamy coffee. My only downside to this shop is they don't have a phone number on file so if you need to contact the restaurant regarding your order etc you have no way of calling. read more

So excited to try this place out! It was recommended by one of the locals so we had to give it a try. I didn't want to hold up the line so I was quick to pick the California burrito and a soda... kinda wished I would have taken the time to really look at the menu because my partner got the tacos and wow, it was colorful and looked delicious! My burrito was gigantic! But it was truly delicious! The meat was good, sauce was super tasty! All n all can't complain! The guy at the register was super kind! As well as the staff making the food. They ran out of ice and someone quickly got us more and then filled the machine... and everything was clean! read more

Was in the area and decided to check out this cool looking establishment. It was giving a surfer vibe and it popped up on Yelp so I decided against Starbucks and wow am I glad I did that. Customer service was fantastic. My order was taken promptly and my order was ready a few minutes later. I ordered a cookie butter latte and a California burrito. The latte was sooo good, I ended up drinking most of it before being out of the establishment. The California burrito was delicious. The meat was cooked perfectly as well as seasoned well. The fries to meat and condiment ratio was great. Also, something I really appreciated was the salsa bar. It was so clean, and a total of 7 salsas were tempting me. So of course I tried them all. I can't wait to be back in the area and explore more of the menu! read more

The food is marvelous. So far I've had the breakfast burrito and the carne asada burrito. The burritos are packed with flavor. The carne asada tacos, the beef brisket tacos and the vegetarian tacos were.delicious. I ordered a couple of different smoothies and they were all delicious. My favorite was the blueberry with peanut butter. All the coffees are delicious. The Service is impeccable. Fast at processing food orders and drinks. Makes a long cashier line dissipate in five minutes . The staff are friendly and accommodating. The ambiance is lively and fun. Whether you're a family stepping out to eat or friends getting together this is the place to go. The eatery is always clean. The music is always good. The parking is ample. Building fun memories is also a plus. read more

This place is so unique! I wish they had more locations down south, but will definitely be coming back to try everything -- their menu is extensive and a little overwhelming but in a good way!

Makenna has good coffee, but for some reason it's more milky. So I usually asks for an extra shot and that makes all the difference. I get the Maui and Hawaiian honey I think it called. This location has good food. I also got their garbage can taco. Avocado, bacon, cheese, egg and I think potatoe. Finger licking good! read more

Arrived on a Saturday morning, unfortunately they don't have a menu board. We received a paper menu at the register. Thankfully it wasn't too busy, or we would have held up the line. I panic ordered a Cali dream burrito. As we waited for our food, I hit the salsa bar. Lots of salsas, but no explanation or description of the salsa or heat level. I grabbed a few but unfortunately nothing was spicy. When we got home and tried the burrito, the taste was okay but the texture was just soft, and mushy. My son had the breakfast burrito. His overall review was it was fine. I think I should go back and try other options. The prices are reasonable. read more

A decent fast food place. Music is vibing with super socal music. Food menu is small, but you have tacos, burgers and fries. And lots of drink options. I had the rodeo breakfast taco which is brisket and egg. Brisket was dry, and you would have to depend on salsas for flavor. Then I got a burger which was almost exactly like an In-n-out burger with crispy fries inside which was good. Overall food was fine, not crazy memorable, but a good bite. read more

The only thing good about this place is the coffee. And the labels are nice that they put on the food. But the food itself was SUCH a disappointment. $5 for the tiniest taco. The most they should charge for this is $3 and even that is pushing it. It's literally the size of the coffee lid. Unfortunately, not just the price effected the burrito. The burrito had fries in it and all you could taste was the oil. It tasted old, like they were probably leftover fries they didn't sell the last few days. We asked for salsa in our Togo order and were not given any. We really like the Madera location so I had high hopes for this, but for the price, it's just not worth it. read more
