Love this place it’s my local Mexican restaurant. The service is on point. The food is excellent and the ambiance is lively and fun. Great music and cocktails too. Come on your own or with a group it’s always a good time! Back in for another visit Sunday afternoon so much energy and food is amazing ordered molcajete great to share for two people. Always leaves full and satisfied :)

We went on a Friday around 18/1900hrs. We found parking pretty quick, there was people, not packed but getting there, great music, very peaceful atmosphere, the service was right on point with enoughs "how's everything", not too much to the point where you cant help to notice the times in between checking. Anywho, is a good spot to go with a few friends and enjoy a good time together. They have some out of the usual menu, with out of the usual drinks like its watermelon Cadillac, if you go I recommend the shrimp tacos they come with melting cheese bomb, the guacamole with chips they come with fresh shredded cheese, also the stake with mushrooms damn off the hook. Its not in the menu but if you ask the waiter/tress to hook you up with a little whiskey they do. They're not like is what they focus, they're main alcohol is Tequila and Mezcal mix drinks and straight. Im not a tequila nor mezcal out politeness I'll take a shot with the host but my thing its whiskey or cognac. No mix drinks straight. Here's a tip any alcohol drink that contains sugar, the alcohol effect is double because of the sugar, and with ice first you're cutting your drink with water and second when you're done with the drink and you still have the cube and crush and eat the cubes which are soaked in alcohol hits you also twice as hard there fore getting you in back of the bus quicker. Unless that's your intention learn to taste the drink straight if its too strong or too hard of a kick get something of more quality McCullough, or mid range Traveller, Monkey Shoulder,Angela Envy. Back to place, its all great and all but its not cheap, not supper pricey but to my opinion well worth the $. So much I went to check out the one in Montebello.

The best vibes for a birthday brunch—such kind service and delicious food, great for a big group. We were received so warmly for my friend’s birthday brunch. Kalaveras made it a special one. Show this place love if you’re in the area!

One of the better Mexican food chains in SoCal. Can always count on the food being consistent. That’s a HUGE plus. Let’s get into it. Upon walking in I was greeted immediately. They asked if we would like to sit inside or outside. I usually opt for outside as it’s quieter than being inside etc. Order the chicken, cheese mole enchiladas. And a chili relleno on the side. Also comes with rice and beans. The mole sauce is perfect. Little bit of sweet and spicy. Just the way it should be. Chicken was tender and seasoned well. Cheese enchilada typical and good. Chili relleno was perfect. Sometimes when you get one it’s overly battered/too much egg white on the outside. This one has a great balance, not too much egg at all. The place is clean, the staff is very helpful, quick and always attending their tables. Come to think of it I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad experience at any Kalaveras locations. And I’ve been to about 4 locations. The food always tastes the same and the staff and atmosphere is always on point. The ONLY reason I didn’t give it 5. Is because it was raining outside. And this one time I wanted to sit inside. They kept the door open and it was colder inside than outside with the heaters lol. And they got my order wrong. But that was resolved quickly. Overall would I recommend this place? Most definitely. Foods good, staff is great, has plenty of parking ( private lot ) place is clean. Food: a little above average Staff: no issues Cleanliness: clean Atmosphere: vibrant Decor: ok. Nothing crazy. Bathrooms: N/A didn’t use them. Enjoy!

The food and drinks were great. We got the Jamaica infused whiskey “Kopa de Frida” and it was spectacular. PS: Lower down the music, you can’t even socialize comfortably. Maybe because it was Saturday night and they had a dj, I’m just saying there’s no need to blast it to where it almost hurts your eardrums.

Drinks were good Food was pretty to look at but flavors were lacking Service was kind and welcoming

We had a good experience at Kalaveras today! The food was wonderful. I enjoyed every bite and so did the rest of my guests. The parking was easy, we got seated right away, no wait at all (we went on a Monday around 3). The only thing that I didn't enjoy so much was the type of music (I like Bad Bunny, but not for my entire stay, lol), and the volume was loud. Although we could still talk, it wasn't very relaxing. The service was good, but at times a little slow, but understandable. Our food; however, came fast! Overall, I would recommend, mainly for the food, I truly enjoyed it. Oh, but a couple of things to note, no refills on sodas and I'm not sure if they give a free dessert for a birthday (because they do sing), but they charged both of the desserts we ordered. Thought they might have thrown in one of the desserts, but they didn't. Desserts are expensive...$12 for a flan and $12 for churros!

Food is always AMAZING but service tends to be a bit uugghh. Have been here at least 10 times at different hours and servers tend to forget about you but again the food makes up for it!!! And if you like cocktails, well you will never be disappointed . I will still keep coming back because overall place is amazing

We were a party of 4 but my kid didn’t order anything and we were charged 18% for tip automatically. The service was not good, the tips are earned in my opinion… I didn’t say anything and just paid. What keeps me coming is the good drinks and music! :)

Disappointing experience at Kalaveras. I've been there multiple times a week, but after today's service, I won't be back. The server, Rosa, told me and my friend that we couldn't order more drinks because we hadn't ordered food yet. This policy wasn't clear, and the way it was communicated was unfriendly. We were planning to order food after our drinks, but the attitude from the server made us decide to leave instead. For a place I've visited frequently, this was a letdown. Maybe they need to work on staff training or clarify their policies for customers. If you're looking for a casual spot with good service, you might want to consider other options.!
