Fast N Fresh Mexican Grill is a family-run Mexican restaurant on Tapo Street in Simi Valley, known for wood-grilled meats, its mar y tierra plate, margaritas, and taco cart catering. We’ve eaten here many times, so we sat down with owner Lupe Garcia.
What makes Fast N Fresh special?
Lupe told us the restaurant industry has always been his passion, and this concept goes back to his roots with family involved. His mom cooks in the kitchen and his wife works alongside him. He says the food is made with love, and that makes the difference. Lupe also works with the school district and loves giving back to this close community.
What should you order?
- Mar y tierra: shrimp with wood-grilled steak and plenty of veggies.
- Tacos: with wood-grilled al pastor, chicken, or steak.
- Plates with rice, beans, pico de gallo, and guacamole.
- Margaritas and micheladas, perfect for hot days on the patio.
Does Fast N Fresh cater?
Yes. Lupe is the “taco guy” with taco carts. They’ll come to your house or event and do all the cooking on site.
