Delicious food and great service! Manny was a friendly server! The cucumber margarita was perfection.

Absolutely phenomenal service! We stopped into Kalaveras just for a drink and an appetizer, and this young man completely made our experience. Francisco was charismatic, engaging, and genuinely took the time to chat with us and make us feel welcome. His personality is absolutely infectious! Francisco is an absolute asset to Kalaveras, and I hope management knows what a gem they have on their team. Great service can make a quick stop memorable, and he definitely did that for us. We will absolutely be back! read more

I stopped by Kalaveras in Fullerton on a Thursday evening after work after getting off the train. I've seen the restaurant plenty of times, but lately I've been trying to check out places that I haven't been to before, so I figured I'd give it a try. The restaurant has a very colorful atmosphere with upbeat music, and it definitely has a lively feel to it. When I walked in, I was greeted right away and asked if I wanted a booth or a table. I said whatever was available, and I was seated almost immediately. I looked over the menu, ordered a beverage, and decided on the shrimp enchiladas. The menu didn't say whether they came with rice and beans, so I asked my server, Emmanuel, and he confirmed that they did. Quite honestly, everything was great. The drink was delicious, and the shrimp enchiladas, which were $23, came out fresh and hot. The rice and beans were also very flavorful, and I finished my entire plate. Mind you, I came by myself and not with a group, so I know that can sometimes make for a different experience. Even with that in mind, I was really impressed with both the service and the quality of the food. I had no complaints. Kudos to Emmanuel and the rest of the staff for a great experience. I'd definitely come back, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kalaveras if you're looking for a good meal in the area. read more

*** I only put one start because you have to in order to write review *** My first time at this establishment and ABSOLUTELY my LAST time. We are in the "bar area" is what you would call it, they do have a band playing. There is no proper server in the area, we at for half hour to even get a food order. I ordered a coke and taquitos, waited just under 20 minutes for a bottled coke. I told the server that I wanted a fountain drink, he then told me they only serve bottled soda, CRAZY because they are making mixed drinks. I was just irritated because service was horrible from the start. I left out the part when I called the ONE server over to ask for my drink again, he straight out his finger up and said to wait. WTH! I finally went to go ask for a manager, the server who I asked was like yes we have a manager and stood there and just starred at me. I was like CAN YOU CALL HIM. The server told me, no he is busy with three servers. At this point I just made my way over to the manager tapped him on the shoulder and was like I know you are busy but I will wait. Let's just say, I got my soda and gross taquitos which I returned. I am scared to ask for a refill. HORRIBLE STAFF AND SERVICE!!! read more

Amazing service and staff! Shout out Ana she was literally the best. Did bottomless mimosas and the were QUICK to refill and accommodate flavors. We had a group of 9 so we def kept them busy refilling our flutes lol Music a lil loud but hella seating and vibes inside. The adobada is BOMB and huge. The burrito is whatever, cheese grilled on the outside and not the inside. Chilaquiles were not soggy yay!! read more

They offer reservations, which is great because it ended up being packed due to a soccer game. There's two entrances which was a bit confusing but eventually we found the one with the host stand. The host helped us pretty quick and we were seated in a booth. Our waiter was Brandon and he was great, he checked on us often throughout our visit. I ordered the Mi Novia Fresa, the Lomo Saltado and the Churro Sandwich. The drink had a nice strawberry taste with sugar on the glass. I ordered my Lomo Saltado to be chicken but unfortunately they gave me steak and they had to remake it. When I got the right one though it tasted very good! The Churro Sandwich was exceptional, great crispiness and drizzled with a strawberry sauce. I would come back just for the sandwich alone! read more

This place was good but nothing too special. Their mixed drinks tasted really watered down but their shots come out pretty cool. The food was decent. I think their best quality is the design of the restaurant. The service was good. read more

Gotta say, this was a pretty cool place! Since the weather has been pretty hot, we decided to sit outside. The Margarita Flight has an aesthetic presentation however the drinks were STRONG. Wish I tasted more of the fruity flavors instead of pure alcohol. The Pepino one was probably the best tasting out of the four. I was skeptical about the nachos but the asada was REALLY GOOD! The meat was flavorful and tender. The ceviche tasted really bland, almost nothing. My friend who doesn't like seafood whatsoever had no trouble eating it because it had zero flavor. Would recommend to skip this next time. Not pictured but we last ordered the Mangonada Slushie because I saw another table had them and it looked so tasty! Unfortunately the mango taste was lacking and it was mostly alcohol :( I would definitely come again because the vibes were great. The food and drinks are more on the pricier side though. But they even had a live band playing inside playing Latin bangers (according to my friends). read more

Made a reservation and check in was easy and we were seated immediately. Our server was Manny and he was there any time he was needed with friendly and prompt service . My sister and I hit the lunch specials, Lunch Fajita plate and one of the Kara Bowl (?) with chicken. Both meals were outstanding. The Jalapeño carrots were a nice adder to the fajita plate. Chicken was well spiced and moist. The flour tortillas appeared to be fries made fresh made. A great lunch for a great price read more

Stopped by for a late night dinner. We ordered a few dishes and these were all great portions and tasty. The staff provide friendly service, the manager made his rounds and greeted the tables. There was a separate room with a DJ paying some nice tunes so we stayed after dinner for drinks and dancing. Overall fun ambiance and cool wall graffiti art.

Ordered for pickup/ to go. I ordered the shrimp fajitas and they were so good! Plenty of shrimp! The shrimp was cooked really well and had great flavor. Plenty of veggies too! I loved this dish. It came with rice and beans too. I ordered it without crema. I liked the guacamole and opted for flour tortillas. Delicious! 10/10 I also ordered a fruit salad. It was fresh and tasty. The fruit included were watermelon, strawberries, mango and blueberries. The mango was not ripe yet. It was too firm. Other than that, I enjoyed the fruit. 9/10 My husband got the California burrito. He didn't like it. He said it tasted like French fries. He wouldn't order that again. 4/10 My husband ordered the taquitos and he loved those. The taquitos were very crispy. Great flavor and filled with a good amount of meat. 10/10 Overall, not bad. Service was good. We had all the condiments and utensils. read more

We were a party of 5 and noticed on the menus it said gratuity is added for parties greater than 6. Well my friend and i spilt the bill and neither of us realized that our server lied on the bill and said we were a party of 13 and gave her self a tip. My friend and i both tipped her separately and wasn't till we got home that we realized that combined she had gotten almost a 70$ tip! I called the restaurant and spoke to Ismael who said he would help but we never heard back from him. 0 stars. read more
