" I had an incredible dining experience at Cal Mex Cantina! The atmosphere is lively and perfectly complements the superb food. The flautas were bursting with flavor, and my prickly pear margarita was a highlight. Our server was attentive and shared great recommendations. All in all, this place is a gem tucked away by the pier. Will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Cal Mex was delightful! I went for a casual brunch with friends, and the atmosphere was perfect. I loved the avocado toast, and the mimosas were delicious. The staff was friendly and made sure our drinks were always full! Just make sure to arrive early on weekends as it can get crowded. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I visited Cal Mex last week, and the ambiance was vibrant! The tacos were creative, though some of them were a bit spicy for my liking. Overall, a fun spot to grab a bite with a nice view, although a touch noisy at times. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cal Mex Cantina truly impressed me with its delicious menu options! The freshness of the ingredients really shone through, especially the grilled shrimp. However, there was a bit of a wait for our food, which is the only reason I didn't give a perfect score. Still, I would recommend it for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Cal Mex was delightful! We celebrated my friend's birthday here, and everything from the service to the ambiance was excellent. The taco Tuesday deal is a steal, offering fresh and flavorful tacos that hit the spot. The only downside was that it took a little while for the food to come out, but their manager apologized and offered us complimentary chips! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cal Mex Cantina has a nice expansive view of the ocean, and while my cocktail was refreshing, the margaritas could have been stronger. I ordered a burrito, but it was a bit bland for my taste. Overall, a fun place, but I might not return for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Despite the hype, my experience at Cal Mex was not as stellar as I had anticipated. The food was decent, but I felt it lacked the authentic spice and flavor I was hoping for. The ambiance was lovely and the staff were friendly, but on the whole, I was a bit underwhelmed. " (*Curated Review*)
