    Chile Relleno Burrito with a wild berry drink
    Pedro B.

    Pablito's Tacos is hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to! From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed with great customer service and a friendly atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The food is absolutely incredible--everything tastes fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. The tacos are packed with perfectly seasoned meat, the salsas are delicious, and every bite reminds you of real homemade Mexican food. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their ingredients and the care they put into every dish. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the service is fast, even when they're busy. Whether you're stopping by for a quick lunch or bringing the whole family, this place never disappoints. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food that's consistently amazing, Pablito's Tacos is a must-try. I'll definitely be coming back again and again. Highly recommend!

    This place is worth a try! Warning - The art and decor of this place can be intimidating. There are a lot of colors and the walls feel very congested. If you can make it past this, I would recommend making your way to the cashier and ordering some delicious chicken and plantains. There are lots of cool taco and burrito places out in this part of the valley, so Pablitos doesn't really stand out in that aspect. What stands out are their seafood and rotisserie chicken! If you're going in a group, grab a chicken together and get some sides. Chicken is well made and seasoned. If you care about what you eat, I would highly recommend this option. I love fried plantains. They're one of my weak spots, and this spot makes them right. There were like one or two that were burnt, but aside from the few, the rest were great. I would come back here just for the chicken and the plantains.

    Hands down this spot is legit to bring your family to and the cashier is very friendly, the customer service is 1000. Food is really delicious. Best in the west

    Lomo taco
    Linda P.

    We found this gem in Van Nuys and experienced good service and great foods! We loved the lomo dip sandwich, tacos. The meats were rich in flavor paired with delicious green Peruvian sauce - amazing!! Will definitely come back to try other menu items.

    This is my first time here, and I saw the great reviews here on Yelp. I didn't know that it was a Mexican Peruvian fusion restaurant. I've never been to one of those and it was excellent. I love Peruvian and Mexican food. I want more of the Mexican route today. But there was definitely some Peruvian influence with the creamy green sauce. Both sauces were excellent, the Birria was good as was the Horchata. Fernando was great and went above and beyond explaining the menu and making sure that everything was great during my visit.

    Best Pablitos in town. The keto tacos here are so fire. Shoutout to Fernando for his top notch customer service, he works harder than any other cashier ive had the pleasure to talk to.

    Three taco plate
    Mitchell L.

    Been awhile since I got to have me some Pablitos. My wife and I ordered the three taco plate. I got the lomo saltado, Al pastor, and carne asada tacos. She got the Chicharron, al pastor, and fish. She really loved the Chicharron taco, but enjoyed the other two also. I thought the al pastor was the best, but also liked the other two tacos. Beans were okay, not totally authentic, but close. The rice was an absolute miss. Under cooked and under seasoned. Not sure what they were going for honestly. Service was good, took a long time for the food. We were the only ones there too. Place has a Cuban vibe with the mural designs and the music. Still a fan, gotta try something else next time. Also, wish I had a Pablitos closer to Ventura County.

    Chile Relleno Special ( chicharron ) Burrito

    The food here is as bomb as it looks! (Had to taste test before the pic) Definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area they also have great tacos!

    All the best drinks!

    Hands down my favorite Peruvian place! The food is always fresh and amazing, with plenty of options on the menu. The cashiers are friendly, parking is small but manageable, and everything I've tried has been excellent-especially the saltados, tacos, ceviche and aquas!!! The "crack sauce" is hands down the best! Can't enough of it!! I put it EVERYTHING! The owner, Danny, is super cool, so I'm always happy to support this spot. There are 4 locations that are all doing well and there's a reason! Check it out! Taco Tuesdays are the best here!!!

    where to start? parking absolutely SUX here in this plaza. very tight and very busy. safer to access from Van Nuys Blvd heading south. again parking sux. The ceviche was good and very tasty and meaty. didn't feel the chafua. very dry, didn't finish it. clean restroom. good service. wouldn't return, but that's just me.

    I just moved back to LA from Seattle with no local spots and one craving: a good almond croissant…read more Victory Cafe delivered -- literally. Within two weeks of regular orders, the owner Efren called me personally. They were out of my almond croissants, so he stayed late, made a batch himself, and dropped them off on his way home. He remembered a note I'd left on a receipt about just moving back and wanted to make sure I was taken care of. The food is excellent -- salads, sandwiches, quesadillas, pastries -- and I routinely get two to three days' worth for fifty dollars. But what sets Victory Cafe apart is something you can't fake: genuine care, consistency, and a team that clearly reflects how they're led. Loyal customer for life.

Could mix vegan and non vegan ingredients based on likes and dislikes, which was great! Today's order, however, was totally underwhelming. I'm not sure how everything I loved so completely ended up being pretty much tasteless, but it was. Breakfast Burrito was blah. Was basically dry and bland. Changed the cheese to vegan - not sure ANY cheese made it onto the burrito...Barely any guacamole. Barely any breakfast potatoes. The chipotle mayo was the only thing that had flavor. Without it, the burrito would have been inedible. And the Piña Coconut Delight was NOT a delight. How can you mix actual pineapple chunks and coconut and make it boring? Not sure, but they did! Wow. Just BAD. It took over an hour and a half, so was starving enough to eat some. Guess I cross this one off my list though... So disappointed and sad...

Located in the Encino Town Center, I am so happy that my daughter recommended this restaurant. The interior of the restaurant is large, with numerous well-stocked tables and many more tables located outside for patio dining. There also appeared to be a mid-sized banquet room off to one side, behind closed doors, which several guests were exiting to use the restrooms. The entire staff was very friendly, hard-working, and attentive to each of their assigned tables. The specialty here is the waffles; however, their menu is HUGE!!!

Each item was DELICIOUS, fresh, and well prepared. We plan to return here soon to try other great-sounding options on the menu. This was a very positive dining experience.

When we had asked for an update on both plates, she said pancakes were ready but she put them back to warm up. Our thought was why not bring them out fresh so I can at least eat while waiting for the new plate that had to be remade. Anyways my new plate came out and chz was not as melted. It looked like the order was completely rushed. We understand since they had to make a new one because of the hair but there was no consideration. I only ate half not being satisfied. Still waiting on pancakes. Then we asked if we can just not do the pancakes since we had waited for so long, waitress said they were ready and still went to take another tables order. Waited still for the pancakes, ended up getting them to go. Coffee was good, scenery was nice, service could be way better!! I'm pregnant by the way, my patience was very sincere. We didn't complain, we didn't get offered anything for their mistake(NOT that we were expecting it). We paid and may not come back. Very Disappointed.

They serve omelettes, sandwiches, salads, chicken wings, pastas, grilled salmon and PERFECT individual pizzas (that are still large enough to share).

The garden atmosphere is lovely. You dine under a trellis of fairy lights and bougainvillea. And on certain evenings and lunch times, they have wonderful musicians provide soft background music. They also have an interior space which is nice as well (and air conditioned), but the real charm is the garden, where my maltipoo, Bella, is always spoiled (she especially loves the fries).
