" Last week, I had dinner at Caracol that I will remember for a long time! The whole experience was exciting, from the vibrant and inviting decor to the delicious food. We shared several dishes, recommending the baked oysters and the elote soup which just exploded with flavor. Service was excellent, perhaps one of the best I've encountered. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family to Caracol for dinner and we couldn't get enough! The service was friendly and accommodating. Dishes came out quickly, and everything we tried was delightful—especially the fresh oysters and the vibrant tacos. The only downside is that the pricing is on the high side, but the experience made it worth the splurge. " (*Curated Review*)

" Caracol is a must-try restaurant! From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, the service was flawless. The food was creative, fresh, and scrumptious, especially the seafood options. I’d recommend the lobster taquitos—so good! This is definitely one of my new favorite spots in Houston. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Caracol for a recent family gathering and we were impressed! The kids loved the churros, and the adults enjoyed the variety of seafood. My only complaint is that the food took longer to arrive than expected, but the pleasant staff made up for it. The ambiance is really welcoming, definitely would come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Caracol for a birthday dinner and it was a wonderful experience! The food was flavorful and fresh. We indulged in a selection of seafood dishes and the house margarita was one of the best I've ever tried! The only issue was the wait time for our food, but the ambiance made flirting with that wait easier! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! What an amazing dining experience! Caracol truly exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly, and the ambiance was electric. We started with the baked oysters, which are to die for! The flavors are rich and smoky, and then moved on to the elote soup—absolutely packed with flavor. I wish I could recreate such richness at home! Each bite was a delightful experience. We also tried the famous tres leches cake for dessert, which was the perfect ending to our meal. We’ll definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Caracol is definitely worth a visit! We enjoyed a lively night with delicious seafood dishes. Especially the octopus, which was expertly prepared! The customers around us appeared to also be having a great time, adding to the fun atmosphere. The only downside was the slower service due to the crowd, but the staff remained pleasant throughout our meals. " (*Curated Review*)
