    Really good mexican food tonight. We walked into the place around 4 and it was not busy so we sat in the bar. Haven't eaten here in over a year. Thought to try something new for an early dinner. Decor is standard for a mexican food restaurant. We ordered a two taco plate and verde carnitas plate. Both were really good and well portioned. Only negative was in my opinion wish the prices were somewhat less. I just regularly eat and compare to other options in the area. Salsa at table with chips was great. Overall was quite good. Thank you.

    I should've went next door to Taco Bell for a better tasting dinner. I'm not trying to be a jerk -- it's obvious this place is (or has become) extremely lazy when it comes to the quality of food. The quality of food makes Taco Bell seem premium. It's offensive when a venue is charging over $25 a plate and gives zero Fs about presentation, nutrition, basic decency of ingredients. I wouldn't feel comfortable serving these dishes to anyone. If I accidentally made something this terrible at home I'd throw it out. To give an idea of the audacity of what they think they think they can charge vs what they are deserving of: I ordered a side of pico de gallo that they are charging $4.25 for. A salad dressing sized ramekin of onions with three specs of tomato showed up next to me. Insulating. Honestly I can't say enough bad things about my experience here.

    The food here is just average. Drinks are strong. There are just better options for Mexican food scattered all around the local area!

    This spot has to be serving some of my favorite tacos on this side of town. Credit goes to my…read morefriend Leslie, who has been raving about this place for ages. I finally stopped in for lunch and left already planning my next visit, it was that good! The restaurant is small, cozy, and filled with locals. It's the kind of place that has me dusting off my Spanish when it's time to order (which is usually a pretty good sign). The staff is incredibly friendly and despite my lack of fluency in a language I really should have mastered by now....we always make it work. If I had to make a simple recommendation, come for the tacos. The homemade tortillas are some of the freshest I've had around town and make every protein shine. On my visit, I tried the carnitas and al pastor tacos and while both were excellent, the carnitas were the standout for me. I'd happily come back for those alone. A solid carnitas tacos with their classic toppings and again, the fresh tortilla is what makes this spot standout from the others nearby.

My husband wasn't thrilled with his torta, but I think he just ordered the wrong thing for him. My brother had a Carnitas burrito and it was enough for 2+ meals. There are a few tables but not much atmosphere. Great for a quick meal or takeout.

    "Sancho"--a name whispered with a grin or a wink, often referring to the side piece, the other…read moreperson, the indulgence you're not supposed to talk about. 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.

We ordered and were disappointed that the seafood cocktail did not taste fresh and my husband returned the dish to the kitchen. Our server apologized profise and staff was very accommodating. we still left a 20% gratuity, as it was not the wait staff person's fault. Another issue we experienced was the bar had a private party, which was fine, however the noise level from the mariachi band was way too loud and none of the patrons could enjoy their own table conversations. If yo're going to shut down the bar on a Saturda, please take into consideration all other patrons in the main dining room. I am open to going again for drinks and appetizers at the bar, however, I should not have to tell the wait staff to charge us accordingly what the menu offers.
