Horrible/terrible service by our waitress.Went for dinner on Sunday 24 April 2022. We were a party of three. The place was not busy. We have been there numerous of times and this time we received extremely poor service by the assigned waitress. We placed our order within ten minutes. We waited a long time for chips and salsa until we flagged down one of the other servers. When the food came there still was no silverware . We waited, however, the waitress did not bring it. We attempted to get her attention several times as she passed by the table but she ignored us. Again we flagged down a different server for silverware. Yes our food was getting cold. Our waitress did have time to attend others tables and have conversations with those customers.All in all her demeanor was lacking of what is expected and anticipated from a person in the restaurant environment. Her attitude was extremely unfriendly. When she brought the check was the only time she smiled and was efficient and rapid in collecting payment.The other two servers which we had to flag down were very professional with all customers.Some people require training in order to be successful in the food industry.This is the responsibility of the owner and management.The other two servers were very attentive when flagged

Went here last week & wow ? the chicken came right off the bone !! The tri tip I took to go was just perfect soft!! Their prices are more than reasonable. The only thing that I didn’t like was the Virgin Margarita, unfortunately they need to improve that. But besides that the food highly recommend it ??!!

Would of earned 5 stars if the coffee wasn’t cold. Other than that though, ????Food was very good, and I will definitely be back. Large menu options and prices are very affordable.

This place is the real deal had chile verde omlete its was amazing hand made corn tortillas just like my nina use to make its hard to find a great Mexican restaurant this is a must. Definitely going back.

La Parrilla served me the best taco I had during a 3-day weekend taco run in Ventura County last year. The restaurant's extensive menu of Yucatán-inspired seafood dishes, vaporcitos, panuchos, and molcajetes ought to be carefully explored by locals. I consider large menus to carry inherent risk, as there are more opportunities for one to order the wrong thing, but this possibility seems unlikely at La Parrilla given the quality of what they have served me.La Parrilla's "Cochinita Pibil Taco" ($4.00) is the kind of taco that lets us forget the human struggle for a few minutes, and provides ample evidence that La Parrilla is the real deal. The restaurant's silky cochinita pibil guisado practically dissolves on your tongue, as tender chunks of pork barely clutch on to buttery bits of fat in a recaudo rojo that perfectly balances a salvo of warm chilis with a delightfully sour tickle of citrus. The taco's white corn tortilla (which can be upgraded to a handmade tortilla at additional cost) is wrapped around its contents, steamed from the decadent stew within, and then sprinkled with pickled onions and crumbled queso, inviting a spoon-and-knife approach. Carefully pour on some of La Parrilla's exquisite gut-melting pinkish salsa and prepare yourself for NSFW repercussions.You may also enjoy La Parrilla's take on the "Baja-Style Fish Taco" ($4.95), as here the generously-sized flaky white fish filet is covered in an ultra-crunchy golden fried batter, and then dressed with pico de gallo, sliced avocado, bitter strips of red & white cabbage, and a punchy chile cream sauce. A lightly grilled tortilla is just sturdy enough to hold the taco's bulging contents in place for your ingestion.

This place always has the best food and the friendliest staff/owners. You can't go wrong with anything you order there and you definitely won't be disappointed! Great quality food and portions for a very reasonable price!

The food is great. They have good service and it is a little different than your normal Mexican food. It is really delicious and they have huge portions.

Delicious kamboucha!! Tacos and excellent menudo. Service top notch. We'll definitely return.

Hidden gem for sure. Plates are VERY VERY well proportioned. I'm in search of the perfect Chile Reno plate. Although the food was excellent, my search continues. We had a large party of 12, and the server was on top of it and took good care of us. Great customer experience.
