    Ceaser salad
    Mitchell L.

    We ordered take out last night at the last minute we decided to try this restaurant. My wife had the beef Lula plate dinner, which was wasn't bad at all, and I decided to try the MEATtzza pizza. First the dough wasn't tasty nor did it have any MEAT it was like a paste with some type of sauce. Not sure what cheese was used either. Didn't enjoy the pizza at all. Now for the Ceaser Salad it was drowning in the dressing which I just couldn't enjoy it. The lettuce was so gross and soft due to the way they tossed it way to much with dressing. Maybe dressing on the side next time maybe.

    I've driven by a few times and saw my homeland's flag waving proudly and made a mental note to stop by. Finally got a chance to try them out and I was pleasantly surprised! The beef lula kabob and chicken breast kabob were perfectly flavored and juicy, and the rice was fluffy and delicious. We also tried the chicken shawarma that was also well- flavored. Super happy to have an Armenian-owned restaurant in our neighborhood and I know where to go for my Sunday kabob cravings now. Thank you!

    Such a cute little spot in Simi Valley! Vapollo was very clean, welcoming, and had a great atmosphere. We ordered the pepperoni pizza, chicken Alfredo pizza, and fries -- everything was fresh, hot, and super yummy. The flavors were amazing and you can tell they put care into the food. Definitely a hidden gem and we'll absolutely be coming back!

    Arus (the owner) is so nice!!! This food is the best! We got the chicken schwarma wrap and the chicken breast plate. My wrap was so juicy, and tasted fresh! The chicken breast plate was a little spicy, but again everything tasted FRESH!!! Highly recommend! And the waffles are delicious too! We definitely felt welcome here, thank you Arus!

    Chicken plate!!
    Laura W.

    This restaurant was new to me, and I decided to try it given its recent opening. The chicken plate exceeded my expectations with its freshness and flavor. Although the ingredients were very fresh, I recommend including a no onion option for online orders to accommodate various customers. The beef shawarma my husband ordered was substantial and filled with a generous amount of meat. We look forward to trying more menu items. I would also like to point out that the establishment was very clean!

    It's my second time here because I couldn't stop thinking about the Chicken Gyro. The food quality is so fresh and delicious. It's a small little place but it has its own uniqueness. The service is top notch. Prices are great, food is delicious, service is 100. We def will continue coming back here - it's worth the wait

    Tried Vapollo, since it's down the street from my home, wife had the beef shawarma and I had the Vapollo pizza, pretty darn good. Got the small pizza, that alone would have fed us both and great price. Definitely will go back. Enough food for leftovers.

    The food, service, and ambiance is amazing!!! Me and my boyfriend got a few different things and loved everything. I definitely want to come back here. The food was so fresh and tasted delicious.

    This is their 2nd attempt at not burning the cheese pizza i ordered.
    jackie c.

    Worst pizza ive ever had. Asked them to remake my burntl, dry pizza while they looked at me like they had no idea what i was talking about. They kindly remade it though... no joke, here is the pic of the 2nd pizza. Im sure the rest of their menu is good, just dont order the pizza. Super low quality cheese. I literally threw it out when i got home. Cost $20 On the bright side, the decor was lovely and very welcoming, even though it was small, they made the best use of the space!

    Fresh Falafel wrap
    Kristin A.

    I walked into this lovely little restaurant offering a sales pitch for commercial insurance. Having interacted with the owner a few minutes I became intrigued by the story and heritage and authenticity of the establishment. I returned the following evening & OMG this place did not disappoint! I had given up on finding a decent, fresh/clean ingredient restaurant in Simi Valley, I generally travel to the valley for decent food...I am so Happy i found this place it exceeded all expectations-Finally! I highly recommend it! The service, food, ambiance is phenomenal, generous portions and reasonably priced! Delicious!! I almost forgot to mention the pastry - baklava with walnuts we took togo. It's very light and not overbearing with syrup like most I've tasted.

    My friends and I came here for dinner the other night and I was absolutely blown away by this spot…read more Visually, it's a stunning place and they've done a fabulous job with the aesthetic as it's the kind of place that feels like a party. Neon lights, cute signage, and overall they just did a really great job with the design and execution. There's a lot going on but it doesn't feel cheap. Ambiance is definitely A+. For dinner on a weeknight we found this spot wasn't too busy but we also came after happy hour. It was a relaxed vibe. Service was overall pretty good. I felt like all of the gals working were very very sweet and nice. Also, anytime we stopped them to ask for refills and such we got what we asked for. That's my only upgrade as since it wasn't super busy, it would have been nice for the staff to catch the refills on water or salsa on their own/more proactively but hey, it was again a relaxed lowkey night and the staff couldn't have been lovelier. I'm just curious how the service would be if they were super busy? Now on to the food and drinks. The menu was very impressive! Solid cocktail and drinks menu. I'm bummed I didn't get a cocktail but my party doesn't drink so it was more fun to get an agua Fresca with them. The guava one was good and served nicely chilled. However, next time I'll definitely get a cocktail because their drinks looked fun and beautiful. The food was definitely the standout for me. I ordered the cheese enchiladas Suizas and they were a 10/10. Not comparable to most enchiladas I've had but the sauce was fantastic and unique. I really loved these enchiladas and I'd honestly get them again. Solid flavor in the rice and beans as well. My friends also enjoyed their meal and it seemed like everyone was happy. The pricing is a little steep for Mexican food but also the ambiance and presentation make sense to me why it'd be a little more. For the three of us the bill was over $100. And that's for three mains and three non-alcoholic drinks. Normally at $33-ish a person I'd hope for at least a beer with my enchiladas, so keep that in mind. As a special occasion place or a spot to celebrate this spot is truly fantastic. I honestly loved my meal so much that even with the price point I'd rush back and bring more friends because this spot is vibey. Nice staff and a cute spot to diner, 5 stars in my books given the quality, taste of the food and the overall experience.

I saw the margarita flight and knew I had to try it, especially since it was my first time. They were all delicious and tasty. I would definitely order again. They had their garnish game on point. I also saw they had a taco flight. I knew I had to try those as well. I wanted to try all the different meat options to find the flavors I like. The Birria taco was my favorite flavor. Some of the meats were a little dry. I wish they had a little more flavor to them. They gave me two different salsas to add and that helped. But I would definitely like to see the flavors of the tacos improve. I always crave sushi. That was a must try for me. I thought I would try the fiesta mariachi roll for the first trip here. It was delicious. I'm craving more! I think next time I will have to try some of the other sushi options since this one was so good. Also since they basically have flights for everything..... I would love to have a sushi platter flight... with my margarita flight! I will definitely go back. I can't wait to try more menu items. The staff was all very attentive and friendly.

The ceviche had plenty of shrimp in it! Such a great amount of protein. I'm typically very particular about shrimp texture, this was absolutely perfect. Cooked to perfection and so moist! It was topped with mango, which paired so deliciously with the lime. Avocado and cucumbers with tajin were also included. And I got 4 small tostadas, crackers, and tapatio packets on the side. My Ubereats driver took a long time to get my food to me, and I was starting to get impatient and hangry, but receiving my order made up for everything! I cannot wait to order again!

I called the restaurant the day before to ask if…read morereservations were required because we were planning to come watch the World Cup game with a group of seven people. I was specifically told that reservations were not needed and that seating was on a first-come, first-served basis. To be safe, we arrived two hours early, only to be told that we actually did need reservations. We were shocked because we had called ahead specifically to avoid this exact situation. We ended up wasting our time and had to scramble to find another place that could accommodate our group. What made the experience even worse was the way the staff handled it. While my dad was calmly trying to speak with the employees at the front desk to understand what happened, they literally walked away from him instead of listening or trying to resolve the issue. That level of disrespect and lack of customer service was unacceptable. If the restaurant has different policies for major events like the World Cup, they need to communicate that clearly and make sure all employees are giving customers accurate information. Between the misinformation and the dismissive attitude from the staff, this was a terrible experience. We definitely won't be returning, and I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone expecting good customer service.

The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we're consistently impressed by how quickly the food comes out without ever sacrificing quality. You can tell they genuinely care about every plate they serve. The menu is creative, everything is made with attention to detail, and the food is always cooked to perfection. My personal favorite is the Steak & Egg Burrito--the marinated steak is incredibly flavorful, the grilled onions take it to another level, and every bite is delicious. Flying Yolk offers great value for the quality you receive.

To add a drink and a little tub of fruit to my order was like $5. Eh. Not impressed. 8 grapes, 8 blueberries, one strawberry.

The womens was "out of order" and the mens stunk worse than a morgue with faulty air conditioning. My husband wanted to go before we left. I don't know how he did it. I went next and -- this has never happened to me -- as soon as I closed the door I immediately had the urge to vomit. I ran out and exhaled. Gawd it was the most horrid sulfur, rotting flesh, overflowed septic smell ever. So, today is 7 May 2026... if you go there any time soon and think you might need to "go", check in the back before you order.
