Delicious food. Love the Chile relleno and molcajete!!a family owned and operated. And they make the best apple pie at Thanksgiving!!

Visitors center at Angels Camp CA turned us onto this place. WE LOVED IT!! They use garlic in the rice. Salas is yummy. Chips fresh. Portions are healthy amount. The Pastor Tacos are the perfect blend of spice and sweet with a chunk of pineapple. The presentation professional and service kind friendly and efficient. read more

I was working up in Angels Camp and a customer of mine and I were chatting. She recommended I try this place. I ordered the chili rellano. I thought I said ala carte since i typically can't finish a meal, but if I didn't I'm so glad I didn't! The rellano came on a plate and a side of these potatoes came with it! The rellano has wonderful flavor! The potatoes were like something I've never had but they were delicious! I took my lunch leftovers and had them for dinner. The flavor of their food is different from the Mexican places I'm used to. I will definitely be back! read more

I could eat Mexican food everyday and I'm always looking for the best...Cascabel ranks as a favorite of all time. It is not your typical bland Mexican food! This place has homemade chips and tortillas and all their sauces are rich with flavor and spice. Get the chirizo queso to start and street tacos or chicken enchiladas with green sauce. The green sauce has some zip but well worth it. Finally some Mexican food with spices! Everything tastes very homemade. They do alot of take out and take reservations. read more

We are probably Pablo's best customers. We have "Asada Fry Wednesday's" and then if were just not up to cooking, taco Thursdays too. My fiancé like to pick up our takeout early and have a beer if it's slow. Always a good dinner. read more

Food was delicious, but the marguerita was terrible (poured it out of a plastic pitcher). Sadly, there was only 1 server and apparently 1 cook. The server did her best, but you can only do so much when you're by yourself. She had to clean and clear tables, seat guests and take orders, serve food and check guests out. We waited 20-30 minutes before we even got chips and salsa. As much as we enjoyed the food when we finally got it, I doubt we'll go back again. If we hear they get another server and authentic margueritas, we might reconsider. read more

Spicy shrimp are absolutely delicious. Garlic shrimp a close second. What seems absolutely ridiculous is they brought us chips and no salsa, telling us there was only "super spicy salsa left." So we had plain chips to snack on...no salsa. Then somebody comes upstairs from the downstairs party and asked for more salsa and the response was "You got it! " as she carries a huge bowl of regular salsa back down to the party. So.... apparently regular diners are not treated the same as private party customers. The finale was we got charged for a dish that never came. It must have went to the private party. It's a cozy place that deserves much better customer service. read more

This place was incredible and so very reasonably priced. The chips and salsa were homemade and delicious. The enchiladas with green sauce and quessabirria were so unique and tasty, we were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed them both. The server was very kind with great energy, so she made the experience even more comfortable and nice. read more

Awesome find in Angels Camp. Went here based on Yelps recommendation. It surpassed our expectations. The burger was seriously good! Make sure you buy something with the sweet potato fries. They're amazing! The taco platter were just really good tacos. The Churo Sunday is soooo good! The guacamole is also delicious. Everything we got was seriously good. read more

Stopped for lunch on drive home from Yosemite. Wanted something healthy after all the holiday treats. Ordered beet salad and a mushroom soup. Both very delicious. Portions were generous. Service was great. Venue was small, but nice. A little on the cool side, I wish I had brought my coat, but otherwise, very pleased with my lunch. read more

We have been coming to Angel's Camp for many years and usually eat at the same places. Today we decided to try something new and what a pleasant surprise!! Great service... amazing food that was very unique! The fried avocado was so delicious and such a nice portion that we couldn't eat it all! And the added fun was drinking from very unique terra-cotta glasses!! Definitely will be back! Maybe this trip!! read more

Cascabel - Love these glasses... we tried to find them online and our server even tried to help us!! - Mexican Near Me - Angels Camp, California

If you're looking for authentic Mexican food... this isn't it. I ordered Chipotle Chicken that was good but nothing special. Girlfriend got a bean, cheese and rice burrito but was really dry. Service was good, waited no more than 15 minutes after they took my order. 3 out of 5 seems fair, little on the high side. read more

Stumbled on this restaurant and wow- so amazing- best nachos and taco I have ever had seriously!!! I love this gem!!!

Wife had Sweet Beet salad it was very good! I had carnitas tacos excellent! I noticed some reviews said that the service was slow, ours was very timely. Lunch was served less than 8 min. read more

Good food, very poor service! Waitresses were much more often interested in talking to each other than checking on us. The mole verde was great, fajitas were average. $50 for two for this experience was a bit ridiculous! read more

This place had pretty good food, decent service and was a nice experience overall. I had the polo led, which was a little under seasoned. The pork and corn was good, but the soup itself was a bit bland and lacking the richness I expect. I also had enchiladas with steak and green sauce, which were amazing. The meat was well seasoned and the green sauce was rich and slightly spicy. The rice and beans that came with it were really fantastic. I had the Jamaica to drink, which was really refreshing and not too sweet. Our group shared a slice of tres leches cake, which had a coarser texture like cornbread and a strong vanilla flavor. I thought the cake was tasty. The portions were a bit small for the prices. The service was efficient and friendly. They were pretty busy the day after Thanksgiving too. It has an old Western bibE inside to go along with the historic town. This is a pretty good spot I would return to. read more

Normally I love coming here for birria. And have for years! But unfortunately won't be back, due to theft. My boyfriend and I were dining one evening came in before closing and had a new young Hispanic female waitress, were the last table and finished before the time of close- cool fine, but my boyfriend left his credit card in the check book. We called back in the morning and was told it was not there. But then a few hours later he was notified his card was used at Dollar General up the street. He is not from our area or goes to DG so it was a red flag. Not going back. read more

This place came recommended and did not disappoint. The Mexican food was awesome and it was great to be able to get a burger for the kid in our group. Really sweet people in a super cute environment. The only reason for one less star is it they ran out of like three things that we were ordering and they seem to have a hard time keeping up with a dinner crowd, so that was a little trying but highly recommend! read more

Small place in old part of town, lots of shops around it. A bit pricey... except for the $2 Taco Tuesday deal. Great mild salsa , but charge $1 per refill. They charge an additional 4% for credit cards. read more

The food was really good the wait was a very long time almost , but in the end the food was good and tgats what mattered. It was us and out 3 children I noticed the older women was doing everything trying her best , very sweet, but there was a young lady there I would fire her, she was so unprofessional you could just tell she needed to go. read more

Chips and salsa were good. Ambience and decor is really nice. Cool glasses/cups from Oaxaca. Love the diversity of the menu. She had the enchiladas and liked them. I had the sweet potatoe waffle fries and a cheese/ham quesadilla. I thought both were good. Service was really good. Our waitress was managing 8 tables with a busser. read more

Nice little surprise we stumbled upon! My husband ordered the mushroom burger and loved it! I can't remember the name of my taco but you dip it in sauce and it is out of this world! I apologize I had forgot the names of the food we ate and just wanted to give a shout out as we were there a month ago and can't wait to go back! Great food cooked fresh! Will be back!! read more

I am from San Diego and have had lots of good Mexican food, but the quesabirria is hands down some of the best tacos I have ever had! The corn tortillas are handmade, the salsa nice and smoky flavor, everything tasted fresh and not super heavy or greasy. I'd move here just for the tacos. I never leave Yelp reviews, but I highly recommend Cascabel read more

We had the fried avocado and it was awesome. I tried the Alhombre (I probably misspelled that), and it was very good. The waiter was very nice, but it took a long time for the food. We will probably go there again next time on Angles Camp. read more

Small place but everything is fresh made. Service was quick and friendly, Food hot and tasty. Definitely will come back here in the future.

Wish I could give a higher rating, but it appears to still be a work-in-progress here. The server was nice, but got our dishes seriously mixed up. I made the mistake of ordering the one shrimp dish--when it finally came, it seemed to be swimming in ketchup, not a flavorful Mexican sauce. And the warm tortillas came like 10 minutes later. Their chips are fantastic, just right in my book, but salsa, not so much. Guess they're going for creative, but I like regular red, chunky or not, salsa with cilantro, garlic, onion, etc, one way or another. I can't quite describe what was served. I will definitely go back and stick to something simple, and maybe talk to them about the salsa. I've always rated a Mex restaurant first and foremost by their chips n salsa. So, we shall see. Don't give up on them! read more

Amazing hidden gem as people say. I had the BEST Huarache in my life. Green sauce. Barbecue and nopales. The homemade tortilla under it all was to die for. Don't expect Mexican food per se, expect a taste treat that goes way beyond all that. Met chef and girlfriend and they are awesome authentic people. GO eat there. read more
