    Chicken Mole Poblano - sublime!
    Julie M.

    Casa Calixto has quickly become one of the standout additions to the Bellevue dining scene and easily my #1 for Mexican food in the area. The Jalisco inspired restaurant is spacious and inviting, with warm lighting and a relaxed atmosphere. There are plenty of cozy booths, larger tables for parties, and now an outdoor patio that's perfect on a warm evening. Also seating at the full bar. My husband and I dine here regularly, and the hospitality is consistently warm and genuine so we feel welcomed back. They start you off with chips and salsa that is authentic, fresh and with the right amount of spicy heat. The must-order, in my opinion, is the Chicken Mole Poblano. The mole is made from a family recipe and is rich, complex and absolutely sublime. I find myself craving it at times. My husband is a fan of the Burrito Bandera with carnitas, which is satisfying and generously portioned. There is a large menu, so explore! On a date night we'll split a small pitcher of their premium margaritas made with Herradura tequila. It's a great value and made strong enough to feel some kick. This is our go-to spot when we want a laid back, delicious meal where we know we'll be well taken care of. If you're in Bellevue, don't miss Casa Calixto and definitely order the Chicken Mole. ¡Olé!

    The service is great, and they've really made the inside of the place look nice and welcoming. The spicy margarita was pretty good, but a little on the sweet side for me. The street tacos (carnitas and chorizo for me) were packed with meat and really fantastic. I came back a few days later and tried the chicken mole poblano. Apparently, this is a family recipe, and it was as good as any mole I've ever had in Mexico. Highly recommend it if you're looking for Mole in Nashville!

    Pastel tres leches.    So good!

My wife ordered the Grilled Shrimp Platter which was incredible infusion of different cut vegetables and the sauce served was outstanding! Rice and beans were fantastic. The rice tasted like a risotto and it was so tasty. I ordered the fish taco with flour tortilla and it came with different spiced spread and sauces. It was pan fried. I absolutely loved the crunchy corn taco with shredded beef. I will definitely be back with my wife again!

We had two watermelon a mango and a mezcal margarita. They were great. The waiter recommended the watermelon as a favorite and he was absolutely right. The mezcal margarita eas mine and it was deliciously smoky. For the meals this is where i knock a star off because overall the tacos were good but I wouldn't say it was overwhelmingly great. My fiancee and dad got the birria tacos they did a pretty good job. I got the skirt steak i believe and it was ok. Tender but not too flavorful. Tasted more just like beef. I believe its marinated but i didnt really get hints of any spices. Again, I'm not saying it was terrible by any means. Just left something to be desired. We also ordered the wueso flameado and that was pretty good. Overall a good place to eat. Would recommend checking it out.

The setup inside is adorable and had a cozy, relaxed vibe from the moment we walked in. Our server, Tom, was absolutely wonderful. He even asked if we had any allergies when ordering, which we really appreciated even though we didn't have any. It honestly showed how much they care about their customers. I don't think I've ever had a restaurant ask that before! He was also super attentive and kept our waters refilled so quickly throughout the meal. One thing we really liked was the atmosphere. We loved all the fun live music spots around Nashville too, but this was a nice change of pace if you're looking for more of a chill, relaxed vibe where you can easily enjoy conversation during dinner. We both ordered the asada tacos and they were SO delicious, exactly what we needed. The rice on the side tasted incredibly fresh too, and the tomato and corn mixed into it were the perfect addition. You could tell everything was made with care. The staff was constantly cleaning tables quickly after guests left, and overall the service was just amazing from start to finish. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back next time we're in Nashville!

    Super convenient spot located right under the hotel. Perfect accessibility if you're staying…read morenearby. Fish Ceviche: Fresh and tasty but definitely a bit heavy on the cucumber. Asada Tacos: Honestly, pretty bland. The meat was cooked well but it lacked any real flavor. Salmon: Nothing special. Didn't feel like high-grade fish. Pork Belly Tacos (The GOAT): Absolute life-changing Pork Belly. As someone who's eaten a lot of pork belly, this was easily the best I've ever had. I'd come back just for this. The Portion: Tacos come with rice and beans so the portions are very generous. You won't leave hungry. 4/5 stars. The only reason for the 4-star rating is that incredible Pork Belly. It carried the whole meal. Highly recommend for that dish alone!

Thanks good sir! We got the Carnitas to share and Guacamole - it was the perfect amount of food for the three of us and everything was so good. I loved building my own tacos with all the fun toppings. They even brought us more shells when we still had meat & toppings leftover. And more chips when we still had guac in the pestal & mortar (which was super cute). I loved the vibe of the place - chic but not so chic I felt out of place (because no one would call me chic for good reason). I loved the glow of the pink neon - created a fun vibe.

It was a quick walk through an apartment hallway and leads you out right to the front door. Once walking in the door everyone was so nice and inviting. This was a late lunch hour so it wasn't busy and basically got sat immediately. But I would think lunch hour and weekends can get pretty busy. I knew what I was craving so we ordered pretty much as soon as we sat down. Omg the food was soo good and the perfect size for what I wanted. The taquitos were soooo good! The perfect flavors and texture. I would definitely get these again! The birria tacos were just as equally good! Next time you're in the area make sure you check them out!
