Walked in hours before they closed and simply gave the blandest explanation that we couldn't walk in to eat bc they just couldn't. Garbage place. One star isn't good enough to rate this dump. read more

A friend found this place via Instagram. The vibe is real. Raggaeton music set the tone and the food elevated the experience. My entree was the Kali Burrito with asada, shrimp, fries, monterrey jack cheese, aji Verde sauce, and Avocado mash. The flavors blended so well and made the perfect bite. For dessert I ordered the Churros Sandwich with vanilla ice, berry compote, and cinnamon sugar. The berry compote made the dish. read more

Outstanding service from Crystal V. Drinks were delicious, the food was served hot and very good. Note: food arrives at the table very quickly, somewhere between 5 and 10 mins after ordering.. It's a little loud, so you might not hear everything at the table, but, it gives club vibes!!! read more

This review is based off brunch on a Saturday morning. Also bare in mind all locations are not the same I have gone to the chino hills and Whittier location where it was a great time! Gave this location two stars only bc the host was kind and welcoming she was really great. However the service was not so great even though we were literally the only party inside at the time. We had to send back a couple of drinks/glasses due to food or dirt that was floating in them. Then we realized how the manager would walk around and not even ask us how we were doing. (Yes that's not his job.. but common sense if we are the only people inside wouldn't you want to greet clients to make them feel welcomed?) that being said we noticed a group of ladies (Caucasian) came in after us and he made sure to ask them if everything was ok and good. . Our waiter needs a bit more of training as he didn't come back to ask if we needed more water or to take away our plates. We had to flag him down several times. He also had to ask us what sunny side up was and ended up with something else bc he didn't know so we had to settle. Bare in mind they said this is a soft opening... not the grand opening yet.. so with even more reasoning shouldn't you be on top of it before the grand opening to have people come back? I feel like I would give this place another shot maybe at night time with a different vibe but brunch was not it as of now. read more

I'm so happy they opened a Kalaveras in Riverside...I'm loving this place! Been here a couple of times, service was AMAZING. Valet is 5 bucks. The drinks, appetizers and overall vibe are a HIT. We ordered Birria, shrimp, a molcajete, and it was all delicious. If you are celebrating a birthday or any special occasion, make sure you order the their 5 shot deal ($75 to $95 -- you can pick the tequila brand,and it is presented in a VERY special and noisy way) But even if you don't drink, the atmosphere is so amazing, you will have a blast!! I'll be back... read more

Always a pleasure coming here. Great happy hour prices and amazing quality of food! We had the pleasure of having Sandra as our waitress and she was so sweet! Definitely recommend coming here (: read more

If I can give it 0 I would people had good attitude but assumed they "sat us down " had us wait for over an hour + for our seats , idk but probably won't ever try to go there again unfortunately that ruined it for us big time read more

This place has the WROST possible service for a large party. I went to celebrate my moms birthday with a party of 30. There was only server for the whole group. Of 30. The service was slow the drinks took a long time we were never checked on as we sat with empty refillable drinks. Lastly we had to ask for the birthday flan and to have a song sang to her 3 times, when they did come out only the flan with no one around. This is was corrected but still embarrassing. I will not be returning here. Food was decent but not the service. read more

I read a lot of reviews about this place, the good, bad, and the ugly. With anything else there's always negative comments so I had to go find out for myself. The place has a great ambiance really cool vibe, the servers and staff were very friendly and attentive. They have a wide array of adult beverages to explore, the food was flavorful and hot my experience overall was very good, for those that had a bad experience early on in their visit this place has only been there a couple of months. Give him a little time to work out the Kinks and try a revisit, I recommend this place especially if you're having a birthday that was quite the experience. read more

I have heard about Kalaveras on social media so decided to give it a try for my boyfriend's birthday. I read reviews that weren't so great, which made me hesitant to visit. However, I thought, "Everyone's experience is different," so decided to come anyway. I made a reservation for 4:30pm. My party of 6 was attended right away. Our drinks and food came out fast. I tried the dragon roll and tacos gobernado (both bomb ). Service was great, food was great! We had a great experience. I will be coming back. read more

Been coming to kalaveras in different areas This has been one of my favorites the decor it's amazing Amazing food and like always can't go wrong ordering chamoyada Sandra our waitress was so friendly amazing customer service read more

My favorite food items are the Dragon Roll, barbacoa plate or tacos, the Quesa birrias are too die for. Make sure you ask for the habanero salsa if you like spicy. And my favorite drink currently is the Mesera and I ask for a double. So delicious! Worth the wait, and they have good music playing. read more

As a new restaurant in the area, I definitely have some suggestions where service can be improved on. The current hosting system requires you to wait near the door because your name can be skipped if you are away from the door. I suggest changing to a text when your table is ready system. Another thing I noticed after being seated was multiple servers bringing food and alcohol beverages to the wrong table. I got asked a few times what drink did I order. It seemed like the food/drink runners did not know what table number they were taking the items to. Lastly, the music was way too loud. I understand that the restaurant wants to go for that vibe and the loud music style, but we literally had to be yelling across the table. It was also very hard to hear our waiter. Maybe lowering the music just a little wouldn't have guests having to yell. Overall, staff was very friendly. Food came out very fast, chips and salsa were warm, drinks and food were all good. read more

Music was way too loud could not hear ourselves talk or anyone speak. Could cause hearing impairment, drinks were decent but too Over priced for what you got. We got the taquitos with chicken and no flavor to be tasted. Probably will never go back there again. read more

I normally don't leave reviews, but I randomly came across this place in MoVal and decided to give it a try because of reviews and pictures. It definitely did not disappoint. Started off with the taquitos and a tamarindo michelada for michelada Thursday! The chicken taquitos were bomb and the michelada was one of the best I've tried here in the IE. Also, the chips and salsa was on point. But above all that the service was excellent. They were very attentive and the food was quick. We also got the asada taco and barbacoa taco. Both were good but especially the barbacoa. It was cooked PERFECTLY. Definitely found a new spot. read more

ZERO STARS. Came here and got serviced by Danneth B. Horrible service. After she served our food she did come back once. She would service all other tables and would not even pass by our table. She serviced two specific men and would be there for minutes. Never came by to check if we needed anything, and at one point she disappeared for over 10 min. She came back and still did not check on us. I was going to order more but her service was horrible. read more

I'm back here an hour later to edit my original review. I was bribed into writing a good review with the mention of my server, in exchange for a free "candy shot." All I had to do was show my server the review with their name on it at this exact location. I think this is one of the most unethical and dishonest things an establishment can do. This is literal BRIBERY. The food was great, the decor is cute (hence the 2 stars) but the drinks are GARBAGE. Sugar and ice, with a cute garnish...thats it. You're better off sneaking in a flask of your own because you will pay $16 a drink for pure sugar. All drinks have little to no alcohol. For a place that makes such a big hype about alcohol, you sure put hardly any in your drinks!!! It's a complete rip off. 8 drinks n I was sober as a judge when left. Just a sugar rush and a brain freeze. Wouldn't mind picking up food to go but the "party" vibe is definitely way overhyped. Just stealing people's money with imposter drinks. So just remember.... any review on here that mentions the name of the server... they were coerced and bribed with a "free" drink that turned out to have a bunch of ice n .001 alcohol read more

If you want extremely long wait times to get your food/drinks/ bill come here. Servers here are horrible and do not give you the attention you should be getting. Had to get up and grab my own drinks at the bar because the waiter was just no where to be seen to take my order or bring my order. Food came cold and waiter still had the audacity to try to charge me for drinks I had paid for at the bar. Had to get manager involved because she was really trying to charge me more and she stated she brought them when she only brought me one drink and that was 20 min after being seated. La Veranda/ Barra Azul/ El Pescador are close options where you will 100% receive better service/food and drinks. read more

I have been to Kalaveras a few times for friends' birthdays and have been extremely impressed each time. The food is top notch and the servers are always very friendly. Yesterday I ordered the carne asada tacos, a side of beans, and a Michelada. Everything was amazing, especially the beans because of the cheese they put on top. This restaurant is a bit lively, so I don't think I would come here every night, but for special occasions, Kalaveras is a a must! read more

We went for a birthday party. We had a reservation and the hostess wouldn't sit us until our entire party was there. When we were sat no one came to get our drinks or came to our table. We sat there for at least 10-15 min. We asked to be moved as we were sat directly under a speaker and the music is so loud. They said they'd have to close out our tab but we never even ordered anything cuz no one came to our table. We moved to the bar area. It was a much better atmosphere and not as loud there. The food and drinks are really good. We went w a party of 7. They will only do 4 separate checks. So be prepared for that because they say too many people have walked out. Anyways the food was good. The one drink I good was ok. I might be back to try something else. It was fun. The music they played was great. I didn't like the attitude of the hostess. She had a really bad attitude. But whatever. read more

Definitely over rated.. limited menu and food was ok. You pay for the decor that's about it. I don't understand the hype.

Way too expensive for the least amount of alcohol I've ever watched poured. Bright side was the salsa was tasty
