" What a fantastic find! Casa Calaca is colorful, cozy, and full of charm! They have an extensive menu featuring various Mexican dishes. I opted for the shrimp tacos, and they were amazing! The shrimp was perfectly cooked and seasoned, wrapped in soft tortillas with fresh toppings. While the service was friendly, it was a bit slow, possibly due to the weekend rush. Nevertheless, the food made it more than worth the wait! I will absolutely be returning here on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic dining experience! Casa Calaca blew me away with its vibrant decor and authentic food. The chicken mole was incredible—rich in flavor and the perfect balance of spice.

" My husband and I stumbled upon Casa Calaca while exploring Salida, and what a treat it was! The vibrant decorations and lively music set a great mood. I ordered the el pastor tacos, and they were one of the best I've had! My husband enjoyed a unique veggie burrito that he raved about. The service was attentive, might have been slightly slower due to how busy it was, but we didn’t mind at all since we were enjoying ourselves. Can't wait to return for more delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Casa Calaca was decent, though I felt overwhelmed by the noise level during peak dinner time. The food was good with a nice presentation, but the flavor fell a little flat for my taste. Service was friendly but a bit on the slow side. Overall, an average experience. I might give it another try during a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Casa Calaca is a hidden gem. The atmosphere is full of life, and the service was flawless. I ordered the chilaquiles, which were to die for—made with freshly made tortilla chips and topped with a perfectly poached egg and salsa. It was definitely a comforting and delicious dish, perfect for brunch. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)
