My husband ordered the steak and loved it. What really stood out was our server, Ashley. She was so friendly, funny, and attentive the entire time.

Parking can suck when it's busy so be aware. Our favorite thing is that the pizza joint next door has a huge TV so we can get our Mexican food fix and watch a game from Esquina's patio. They also do a happy hour so it's been 4 dollar beers, and 3 dollar tacos. Can't beat that deal. But this is another one of those places that doesn't advertise it on their website which is why it's NEVER busy for happy hour.

It was pretty empty when I arrived, just before noon, but it got busy very quickly as the lunch crowd came in. After I placed my order they provided me with chips and salsa. The taco was very crunchy with adequate amounts of cheese and lettuce. The chile relleno was filled with cheese, and really good as well. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and would come back again.

The "street tacos" are not authentic street tacos, more crockpot meat..gross! The only good thing was the guacamole, and that was still not the best I ever had. First and last time trying this place. I can not recommend.

And in a way, that's exactly what El Sancho Cantina is: an escape. A secret. A little taste of something else. Whether you slide in for lunch, happy hour, or dinner, El Sancho is where you come to cheat on your routine. Tucked into Thousand Oaks, it's a getaway hidden in plain sight. Sit at the bar, let the cool breeze drift through, and allow the Spanish ballads to work their magic. For a moment, you'll forget where you are--and believe you've wandered into a dreamy cantina somewhere deep in Mexico. Start with the "El Viejo"--their riff on an Old Fashioned. Let the applewood smoke swirl above the glass as you lean in. The aroma hits first, then the deep flavors of añejo tequila and Mexican whiskey settle in with smooth confidence. Sip slow. This isn't a race--it's a seduction. If you're looking for something a little lighter--a healthy balance between indulgence and intention--try the two taco plate with the green salad substitution. I went for one Potato taco, one Shredded Chicken taco, and swapped out the rice and beans for a salad of mixed greens and cucumber, dressed with balsamic vinaigrette and a squeeze of fresh lime. The flavors were bright, clean, and satisfying. I walked away full--but not heavy. If I was meeting my Sancha after, I could've easily gone for a stroll. Maybe even dessert. But don't let me lead you down the wrong path--the tacos and cocktails are already all the temptation you need. And if that post-lunch lull starts to creep in, fight back with the "El Cafecito"--a soulful wake-up call of Licor 43, Kahlúa, cold brew coffee, and chocolate bitters. My personal pick over an espresso martini--bold, smooth, and unapologetically delicious. So yes, you might be cheating on SoCal for an hour with Mexico vibes, but El Sancho doesn't judge. In fact, it invites you back--with open arms, a strong pour, and just the right amount of trouble.

Undoubtedly the worst food and house margarita we have ever encountered…read more The service was very nice and attentive. We ordered the house margarita and it was made with a syrup of some kind that was so sweet we had to ask if it was mistakenly mad as strawberry margarita. It wasn't. Undrinkable. The chips were made an unidentifiable oil that left a taste in your mouth. The vegetables in the Fajitas were cooked in the same oil that ruined their taste The chicken in the granitas was the only thing not cooked in this oil and therefore edible. We have lived in the area for years and the previous owners of this location also had underwhelming food. Honestly this was the worst margarita and food we have been served for several years.

However, the prices are great and there's a condiment bar so you can help yourself instead of being bombarded by up-charges for salsa, and extra condiments. I also had the fish taco.

There isn't much more to say than 3 Amigos is one of the best Mexican food spots in Thousand Oaks…read more Some of the best beans, tastiest salsas, and just straight up near-best burritos in town. It is one of those spots that you can always rely on to get a delicious lunch or dinner. The only thing that stops this from being a 5 star review is that the food is pretty expensive. I do understand that most places are quite expensive nowadays, but even so, it is expensive enough to skip most of the times that I am hungry. Especially when I feel that portions aren't too large, but man are they tasty!

I'm so glad I came back--it reminded me why this has been one of my favorite local restaurants for years. From the moment we walked in, Sammy took great care of us. We wanted to sit at the bar, and she made sure we got seats right away. Throughout our visit, she was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Service like that makes a great meal even better. The tacos were absolutely outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and every bit as good as I remembered. And the margaritas? Still some of the best around. It's hard to beat great tacos, an excellent margarita, and top-notch service all in one place. Sometimes you forget just how good a restaurant is until you go back, and that's exactly what happened to me. Los Agaves hasn't missed a beat. Great food, great drinks, and outstanding people. I

Food was a 5. Also some of the best guacamole I've ever had. The concept of wait to be seated,…read morethen order at a counter after you're seated, then they may bring you chips and salsa 7 mins after a person who sat down after you and got them right away...hard pass. Service... if you like no follow through and people who can't look at you while speaking to you, maybe it's for you. None of the soda fountain was working, they knew about it, and multiple people said they'd bring me the soda I paid for, and it never happened. Back to the counter to get a refund. You'd think if they knew sodas weren't streaming they'd either stop letting people purchase or refund proactively. They don't. Bizarre concept, will never be back. Plenty of Mexican places with great service and food.
