We stopped at Calo Kitchen & Tequila one evening with my family on our way to Mexico, and WOW! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, the decor is gorgeous, and the atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting. Add in amazing food, great drinks and some of the kindest, most attentive service we had on our trip, and this place was a winner! Of course, we started with drinks and appetizers. I ordered the Spicy Margarita made with serrano chiles and blanco tequila, and it was DELICIOUS! It actually had a nice spice to it, which I love. my husband probably had an old-fashioned. But the best part had to be the TEQUILA CART! They bring the cart right to your table with different tequilas to choose from and some of the most unique salt rims I've ever seen. Such a fun experience! We ended up trying a couple of shots as well because...when in LA! My daughter wanted the guacamole to start, and it was fresh, chunky and packed with avocado, lime, cilantro, onion, tomato and serrano. She also wanted the chicken taquitos topped with salsa and guacamole. Both were really good and disappeared pretty quickly! For dinner, my daughter ordered the chicken fajitas. The pieces of chicken pieces were HUGE, which she loved, and everything was seasoned really well. My husband ordered the tacos and absolutely loved them. At this point we were already saying, "Why don't we have a place like this back home?" Seriously, if we did, we'd probably be there all the time. I ordered the Calo Combination with a chicken enchilada, chicken taco asado and carnitas chile relleno. This was the perfect choice for me because I got to try a little bit of everything. Everything was seasoned and sautéed really well and had just the right amount of spice. Soooo good! And obviously we couldn't leave without dessert! We ordered the churros AND fried ice cream because apparently making decisions wasn't happening that night. I LOVE a good warm, fresh churro, and these did not disappoint. Such a good way to finish an already amazing meal. The service deserves its own mention too. Everyone was incredibly friendly and attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the entire meal. Even though the food was outstanding, the service really helped make the whole experience. Hands down some of the BEST Mexican food we've had in LA. From the appetizers and drinks to our entrees and desserts, everything we tried was delicious. Beautiful atmosphere, fantastic service, great drinks and AMAZING Mexican food. We were impressed with the entire experience and will absolutely be back the next time we're in LA! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

First time here and the vibe was everything from the moment we walked in! Such a great spot for date night or GNO. Our table tried 3 different margaritas and every single one was so good! We also ordered the steak fajitas, sea bass, and tacos. Everything was on point. The staff was super nice and accommodating, even though a few people in our party were getting a little hangry. Great food, great drinks, great vibe. Definitely coming back! read more

Caló Kitchen + Tequila is my fun spot to enjoy my day off and get a nice lunch and cocktail. I tried the delicious Fajita and Avocado salad made with Ribeye Steak. Meat was cooked how I like it medium plus and was tender. Slight issue I have was $18 salad with an up-charge of $16. It's better to know ahead of time. JP was wonderful and sent a beautiful Tres Leches Cake to sort out the confusion. He's always friendly and trains his staff with precision. Sammy made a beautiful Mango Caliente Margarita drink and I enjoyed a shot of Casa Amigos Reposado with lime served neat. I can say it was relaxing to be there and enjoy the beautiful architectural elements of the bar and restaurant. My hope is the owners will add a little live entertainment to pick up the vibe and create some excitement, and renew the buzz. read more

Calo Kitchen has an awesome lunch vibe: the decor is beautiful, modern, and inviting. Unfortunately, our first impression with the welcome staff almost had us leaving before we ever got to experience it. Two staff members were helping one person with a gift card, which is fine, but neither acknowledged my wife and me when we walked in. A simple "We'll be right with you" would have made all the difference. A little more training on that first point of contact would go a long way. Thankfully, Mina changed everything. She has to be one of the best servers I've encountered. Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, helpful, and her recommendations were spot-on. Mina just gets it--not because it's her job, but because she genuinely understands people. That kind of hospitality is hard to teach. The drinks were also on point. The bartender knew exactly how much spirit to put in the cocktails--you know what I mean. The food was delicious. We had the halibut tacos and short rib enchilada, and both were excellent. A great fusion of modern preparation with traditional flavors. No deduction in stars for the poor first impression because Mina was THAT good. She made the experience memorable and is a tremendous asset to Calo Kitchen. Hasta Luego Calo' and Mina read more

We again experienced delicious food and drinks along with great customer service. Had the shrimp taquitos and quesadillas. So good. We also had the caddy margarita, the pricey martini with 1942, Tito's and micheladas. We spent a lot of money but it's worth it for the quality and level of service. The setting is peaceful and beautiful with low lighting and comfy booths. The negative - the women's bathroom. How disgusting. Calo, do better to have staff check the stalls. This was unacceptable as a patron spending time and money here. Don't get me wrong - the gross woman that left this mess is the main culprit but Calo needs to rectify the situation. read more

We had a wonderful visit to Caló. It was our first visit. We were warmly greeted and promptly seated. We met our server Alejandro who was pleasant and informative as we questioned him about the menu. He provided us EXCELLENT service. It was a warm evening, but once the sun went down they raised the blinder creating a nice breeze. Loved the ambiance. The food was great. Loved the chips and salsa and Alejandro continued bringing us more. Our entrees were delicious, just a little too spicy for my tastes. But I know we will visit again. read more

The Paloma was made with mezcal and it was a perfect amount of smokiness. We also tried their ceviche which was yummy but honestly just 2 drinks each had us lit.

Modern, trendy Mexican restaurant when celebrating a nice occasion! Food for everyone !! ====== Service was pretty good for the most part. We got checked up on a lot, but then it kinda dwindled a bit toward the end which was odd. Had to gio and find the server. Food portion here is generous, most plates are shareable. Ahi ceviche 4/5 Lots of ahi and mango, I liked the freshness of the fish and the sweetness from the mango. Wish it was cut a little chunkier tho! Could do with less chipotle mayo on the chips Free chips and salsa 4/5 Seasoned black beans are yummy, the red salsa they have is good but not amazing Kids bean and cheese burrito 3.5/5 Good but not amazing. Pinto beans are creamy and the red seasoned rice is tastier than their corn white rice. Two burritos are half palm sized, perfect for little hands. Queso fundido 5/5 Great balance on this dish. Came with some pork as protein and charred veggies, and a sublime salsa. The flour tortillas have a nice chew that went super well with the smooth cheese and spicy salsa. Halibut tacos 4/5 Not the largest tacos, maybe 3 bites for each taco, but the flavor was yummy with the seasoning they used on the fish. Comes with beans and rice. Margarita 4/5 Was strong and large! Outside seating was quite warm, but the bar area was much cooler weather wise. Def need to try their burrito! read more

So so good! This is my new favorite Mexican restaurant! Not only was the food fresh, unique and fantastic, but the service was above and beyond any dining experience I have had lately. During our visit, our party of 6 was seated promptly and the service was very attentive the entire time. Meanwhile, the place was packed!!! I mean no empty tables kinda packed. Food was delivered hot and fresh, bursting with flavor. Truly one of the best dine-in experiences. And...one of the most affordable, bang-for-you-buck, elevated dining experiences I've had locally in a long time. Look forward to visiting again soon. read more

IMO, elevated Mexican isn't easy to do. Authentic Mexican is SO flavorful, SO delicious and then you try to make that fancier and Americanize it and that's no easy feat. TL;DR you're not coming for the best Mexican as the food is just fine, but the ambiance is moody and romantic and the service is great. (Oh but you're paying for all that.) Came for a group dinner and although it's in a mall, you won't feel that way when you walk in as they manage to block the outside surroundings pretty well. The dark lit restaurant is romantic but not overly stuffy and the outdoor/indoor design keeps the mood light, almost like you're on vacation. It's a tequila bar and they don't really have a full bar so I hope you like tequila or mescal. If you do, they have great drinks although do you have to put tajin on everything? The food is where things start to fall apart. Like unsalted guac, unbalanced and overly sweet ahi tartare. They spent a lot of time on presentation and not enough time on truly balancing the flavors. The queso was the most flavorful with the pork and plenty of tangy and rich flavors but otherwise most everything else was forgettable. You can tell a lot about a Mexican restaurant by the chips and these chips were crunchy but SO bland. The beef birria tacos were pretty good but hard to mess up a fried taco with consomme. The main courses were again fine. Beautifully plated but flavor was just so so. While there was decent flavor on my halibut tacos, the fish itself had little flavor. The steak was cooked well. A little chewy but again not a lot of flavor overall. We got one of every dessert. Again all fine not great. The flan was by far the best, so recommend that if you like the flan. The service was the best part. Really attentive, customer service oriented, friendly. Again this is a great spot for a date or a special evening if you aren't that focused on food. But for the price, you want the food to be just as good as everything else here. read more

We stopped in for a quick drink and a snack on Saturday. Although it was a busy shopping day, we were fortunate to find a couple of seats at the bar. Within moments of sitting down, the bartender brought us water, followed shortly afterward by complimentary chips, salsa, and bean dip. My wife is a true salsa connoisseur, and she absolutely loved the salsa. The bean dip was also delicious, with a wonderful smoky pork flavor. The service was attentive, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was lively. We had a great experience and will definitely be back! read more

Found a nice place to eat when I shop/visit South Coast plaza ! Its located on the lower level by the side entrance near the carousel and Verni chocolate & gelato shop. It has beautiful tropical decor with a huge bar area. There are also semi private dining rooms ,booth seating and patio seating . We chose to sit at the bar since we really wanted to get a drink and just relax and enjoy the vibe. The bartender came over to say hello and took our drink requests and also our food order as well. Got an appetizer of chicken taquitos which was really great generously stuffed with meat and drizzled wirh 3 tasty sauces ! We ordered a couple of drinks 1. Strawberry margarita 2. Cucumber cilantro margarita & two entrees. 1. Carnitas plate ( with rice & beans) 2. Spinach enchiladas ( with rice & beans) *Complimentary chips with salsa & BEAN DIP * The bean dip was so delicious that I hardly used the salsa which was good on its own. Although both entrees was good and satisfying and we could only eat half the meal . Great place for a meet up with friends ! I'm betting the bar scene is great in the pm! Only disappointment was that they don't offer Happy hour ( Sad face). read more

Came to Caló Kitchen + Tequila with family to celebrate our father's birthday. We had reservations for a party of 9 and our table was ready as soon as we arrived. The highlight was definitely the service! Our waiter, Juan, was attentive, informative, and friendly, and the rest of the team helping our table was just as great. Easily some of the best service we've had with a large party. Food-wise, it felt more like Americanized Mexican food paired with a trendy lounge vibe, so nothing particularly stood out for me. Still, we had a good overall experience and the exceptional service made our celebration that much better! read more

We decided to try Calo for our weekly lunch date and it was pretty empty at open. We got sat immediately and I decided to go with the steak fajitas. While we waited for our entrees, they served complimentary chips and salsa/beans which were delicious and definitely a plus for the restaurant. The steak fajitas came out presented well but was a bit disappointed in the seasoning. The steak wasn't seasoned well and a bit bland which led to the wraps feeling a little flavorless. I added a decent amount of salsa to add some kind of flavor profile but for the price of these fajitas, most likely wouldn't order again. I will say the restaurant is beautiful but definitely on the pricier side for those looking for a quick meal. I would suggest Cali for a nicer date night or special occasion lunch. read more

I've been here twice now and it was consistently good. I kinda think of it as a slightly lower level than Javiers although they're very similar. Food is good, service is great, ambiance is lively with a tropical modern twist. This second time I had the Pollo Chipotle which came with a chile relleno. The sauce is very creamy with a good kick. This place is good for a nice dinner or happy hour imo. read more

Located in South Coast plaza near where the carousel is. Calo is an upscale Mexican restaurant with a beautiful bar and nice interior ambiance. It's easy to make reservations online via yelp. Service was a bit slow, but really enjoyed the complimentary salsa and black bean dip they start you with, as well as my steak fajitas. They cooked it a perfect medium rare and it was seasoned well! read more

Just came back from an early dinner here and had such a strange/bad experience. I'll break it down - We had a reservation for 10 people including one toddler. I had called ahead a few days to confirm they have high chairs and that we needed one. I also mentioned this to the host when we checked in. The restaurant was pretty empty, but somehow they made us wait 15 minutes for our table - despite having a reservation and checking in on time with our full party. The host gave the canned "we're preparing your table now" when I followed up with him. This was foreshadowing. When we got to the table there was no high chair - they told us none were available and they'd get one to us as soon as one opened up. It turns out there were only 4 in the whole restaurant due to one breaking over the weekend? It took forever to get our orders in. Not for lack of trying. It seemed like they were short staffed for a Saturday and the runners definitely let us feel it. When they dropped off the tortillas, the runner who brought the food told us they were corn so we told him we ordered the half and half. He flatly said "these are corn. Talk to your server" in the most combative tone. Cool cool cool. There were huge gaps where there was no one on the floor to flag down for things during our meal. And it took a really long time before we got to order. We got seated and then waited another 15 minutes before anything went in. The only silver lining to our meal was our server Ashlyn - she was amazing! Our interactions with her were excellent. She was so warm and really did a great job trying to make the best of our time. It just felt like she was spread too thin and didn't get to check in on us that often. They eventually got us the high chair almost 30 minutes later as the entrees came out, but other tables around us were not so lucky and just had to deal with it. We ordered a little bit of everything as a table of 10 with apps and their own dishes does. I think all the food was solid and the platter we got was a good deal. The shrimp stood out as being well cooked and not overdone. All the drinks we ordered were fine if not a little weak/watery. The lady in a green striped shirt (manager?) stopped by twice to ask us if we were doing okay. But this was already towards the end of the meal and nothing could salvage the bad vibes from earlier. We just kept things moving. Overall, this is a management problem and the quality of the experience does not match the price tag. I would hesitate to recommend this place for a group and would definitely not go if you have little ones due to the poor hospitality starting from when you check in with the host stand. The slow meal service and the lack of high chairs made it an overall mediocre experience. 2 out of 10. read more

First time at Calo Kitchen but definitely not the last. The atmosphere was super inviting.. The hostess was extremely friendly and took us to join the rest of our party. Our server, Dylan was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and suggested great options. The blackberry margarita was delicious not super strong. The three combo, crispy beef taco, chicken enchilada, and the Carnitas chili Relleno which really sold the dish and my side was delicious Mexican corn. We also really enjoyed the bean dip with the chips and salsa. I highly recommend this establishment and Dylan as a server. read more

I used to love the one in Laguna Niguel and then the service and quality of food started slipping. I thought I would give the one in Costa Mesa try. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were very busy so it was hard to get their attention. I started off with the pineapple margarita, which was amazing. I also love their chips and salsa. Then we had to flag somebody down to take our dinner order. I ordered the fajita salad with no sour cream and asked for dressing on the side. It came with no dressing at all, and no pico, no corn and no pepitas. I didn't say anything about half the ingredients missing from the salad. I did ask for the dressing though and then waited. I had to ask two different people for dressing before I got it. My friend ordered an enchilada which she said was cold and the cheese wasn't even melted on it. She asked for them to heat it up and then they sent a new one out and it was warm, but she said so salty she couldn't eat it. We waited a while for them to take our cards to pay. No one checked on us during the meal overall and underwhelming experience and meal. It's a pretty restaurant though. And it's huge. read more

What can I say? Everyone kept recommending CALÓ to me, but I never take anybody's word for a restaurant. We all have different palates, and what hits for one person might not hit for another. But DAMN!!! This place hits. From the start, the staff was awesome and very attentive. The bartender took care of me, poured me some water, walked me through the menu, and made me feel welcome without hovering. I started with the Mango Caliente cocktail -- 10/10, hands down. Sweet, spicy, refreshing, and balanced. That alone had me thinking, okay... maybe everybody was right about this place. Then came the ribeye tacos, ordered medium rare. I took the first bite and literally just stared at them for a second like, "Nah... let me take another bite." Yep. Every bite was delicious. The ribeye was cooked right, everything tasted fresh, and the flavors worked together instead of fighting each other. The chips and salsa were fresh, side of the black beans, which contain pork. Those beans were mouthwatering. The whole place had a great vibe too. Staff was on point, people were enjoying themselves, drinks were hitting, and most importantly, the food backed it all up. As a chef, I'm picky about execution, but I'm also not looking for reasons to tear a kitchen apart. I just want good food prepared with care -- and CALÓ delivered. I will definitely be coming back. There are way too many drinks and entrées on that menu I still need to try. You got me, CALÓ. Everyone was right this time. read more

Great spot for a business lunch at Calo Kitchen + Tequila. Adriana really made the experience--friendly, attentive, and gave great recommendations. I was looking for something lighter and went with the halibut tacos--fresh, clean, and not heavy at all. The watermelon lemonade was a standout (made with fresh watermelon, you can taste it), and I also had the unsweetened passionfruit tea which I liked. We started with the queso--super melty with that major cheese pull (very stringy in the best way). Quick heads up though: it does have pork. Same with the complimentary bean dip that comes with the chips and salsa. Adriana was great about flagging that for us and brought out a vegetarian version of the beans instead, which a lot of the group enjoyed. The space is beautiful and definitely gives "nice lunch meeting" energy. Easy parking at the mall too. Would come back. read more

Calo Kitchen in Orange County is worth the hype. At first, I didn't understand why people would wait two hours for a table, but after getting lucky with a last-minute opening, I get it. It was delicious. The fajitas were the standout. The steak was cooked perfectly, and everything on the plate, rice, beans, guacamole, onions, was excellent. We also shared the nachos, and they were far from basic. They really went all out. Drinks were great, service was friendly, and the space is modern and sleek. Everyone at the table loved their food. I'd definitely come back. read more

An Exceptional Dining Experience Calo Kitchen delivers the kind of dining experience where attentive service and genuine hospitality elevate an already wonderful meal. Our server, Dylan, was exceptional. From the moment we were seated, he was polished, attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly gracious without ever being intrusive. His timing was impeccable, and he anticipated our needs throughout the evening. Dylan has a natural ability to make guests feel genuinely valued, and his professionalism added an unmistakable touch of elegance to the experience. I would also like to recognize JP, the manager, whose presence and attention to detail were equally impressive. JP was warm, professional, and clearly dedicated to maintaining the high standards of the restaurant. It was evident that creating an exceptional guest experience is a priority, and that leadership was reflected throughout the evening. Calo Kitchen succeeds not only because of its food and atmosphere, but because of people like Dylan and JP who understand that true hospitality is about making guests feel special. An outstanding experience from beginning to end. I look forward to returning and would highly recommend Calo Kitchen to anyone looking for an elevated dining experience. read more

We came from out of town for the weekend and got lucky with this gem of a place. It was so good we went back one more time before we went home. First time we sat at the bar. Bartenders were very kind and knowledgeable. Made the most delicious drinks. The atmosphere was so beautiful and elegant. The place was very busy. Second time we came back we were sat at a booth. 10/10 both times. Food was spectacular. If we ever come back to the west coast we will make sure this is the first stop. read more

Calo is conveniently located inside South Coast Plaza, so it's an easy stop if you're in the middle of a shopping day. The ambiance is really nice, plenty of comfy booth seating and a chic, polished vibe that makes it feel a little more elevated than your typical spot. The margaritas were solid and I liked that they can make any of them virgin. I tried the blackberry margarita without alcohol and it was super refreshing. Food wise, it was just okay, nothing bad, but nothing that really stood out either. Overall, it gave me strong Javier's vibes: stylish interior, decent Mexican food, and drinks that are definitely the highlight. That said, the pricing could definitely be better. It feels a little steep for what you get, this would be the perfect place for a reverse happy hour, especially on Sundays during that last hour before closing. It'd make it way more tempting to swing by at the end of a shopping trip. read more

My experience was 100% what it was because of my waitress! It isn't often that you're served by someone who genuinely loves what they do and truly enjoys meeting new people. From the moment i sat down, Isabel was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. She made me feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Her positive attitude, friendly personality, and attention to detail made the entire dining experience memorable. She anticipated our needs, made great recommendations, and checked in at just the right times without ever being intrusive.

I almost always get servers and bartenders that are super sweet accommodating and deliver on quality service.

But the food here is good and I know it's a lot of people's favorite / go to spot. It's fine. It's solid. It gets the job done. I typically come for the drinks, the vibes, and the god damn black bean / salsa dip combo. Don't @ me. I know how to box. I'm from TJ. I'm from the streets. I have a hefty body count.

This place was sooo good and cute!! We came here for a friends bday and it was perfect (there were 7 of us). Some of us got there a bit early so we had a drink at the bar which was such a vibe. I had the calo margarita and it was so good next time I wanna try the fun ones - they had so many flavors but I decided to stick to the house. To start the chips and salsa came with the table and it was soo good. The salsa was great but I particularly loved the bean dip. It was unique and added to the salsa. For food the menu had a large variety. It was so hard to choose because so much sounded good but I went with the chicken enchilada and beef crispy taco which is usually my go to at a Mexican restaurant. Other people got the quesadilla, burrito, and beef enchiladas and everyone loved their food so it seems like you can't go wrong. Our server was also great! read more
