   First timer. Better than I expected. Delicious drinks and food. Energetic and loud crowd on a Sunday early afternoon.

   When we first walked in we wasn’t welcomed. I made reservations for 8pm and we were seated immediately. We waited for about 10 minutes for a server. The guy didn’t introduce himself he just asked if we were ready. I ordered three chicken tacos and it was delicious. I also ordered a margarita pineapple slushy that was good as well. My friend ordered an enchilada plate she said it was good. For my first time, I enjoyed the food and the ambiance. I just wish everyone customer service skills were up to par for a restaurant like that.

   Great ambience. They play all the great music. The drinks do what they need to & the portions of food are a bit small for the price but overall it was a good experience the servers were all nice and the food arrived quickly after ordering. I will definitely be back!

   Ordered albongidas, they were great. I also ordered the lunch menu asada fries and they were not the best.

   If I could give Kalaveraa 0 stars for the experience last night I would. The margaritas tasted like nothing but syrup in a glass. The service was pretty much non-existent due to one man working while 5 wait staff stood in the outdoor area socializing and joking around while customers tried over and over to get basics like water or a glass. We asked for everything 2-3 times over about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes before we received anything (including basics). No one came back to refill anything we needed. The food was absolutely cold and they overcharged me on the final bill. Luckily, I checked due to how incompetent they all were. The “manager” who was outside socializing and on his phone the entire night told me he’d definitely reversed the extra charge but I’m looking at my bank transactions and it’s still there so now I have to waste time with them again trying to get my money back. This location used to be good and I’ve been there many times. But apparently, it’s gone to the dogs now.

    We had a really good dinner at Kalaveras before the theater. We were glad we went early, it did get noisy as it filled up. Two of loved our shrimp enchiladas and flan, two of us loved the tacos and churro sandwich dessert. Will definitely eat there again when we are in the area!
