YOU'LL BE TRULY AMAZED! THIS CAL-MEX FOOD IS UNBELIEVABLY DELICIOUS! – This is the kind of Mexican food I had been searching and longing for since I left California in the 80's! There are seafood items on the menu, FISH TACOS done right, Shrimp Enchiladas and Crab quesadillas. They have real shredded beef, and shredded pork items, just like I used to get in San Diego! They use only super fresh produce and all the sauces and salsas were fabulous. Please try the guacamole, its hard to describe how delicious and fresh, and the ... read more

Lovely Atmosphere, Great Food Beautifully Presented – Don't expect the typical Tex-Mex entrees that are all the same flavors in different shapes crammed against a pool of tasteless fried bean paste! The names of the dishes might sound familiar, but you won't recognize them! The flavors are uniquely enhanced blends of fresh ingredients and spices. The presentation rivals that of fine, much more expensive restaurants. Don't miss the smooth wine-based margaritas, and FABULOUS flan! AND I took home doggie boxs that I had NO INTE... read more

#1 Mexican Restaurant – We're new to the area and have been looking for a good Mexican restaurant...this is it! We went on a Wednesday night, and although they were busy, we were seated promplty. The menu is not your typical Mexican food. They take the standard dish and liven it up with their own unique flavoring. I had a tostada and my husband had a burrito. Both meals were delicious and we left with doggie bags. The guacamole was awesome (maybe the best I've ever had) and the salsa was really good...unfortunately the over-... read more

Wonderful fresh Mexican fare! – Wow. We went to Cafe Capistrano last night for the first time and were so impressed! We all got different menu items ... and none of us were disappointed! It was so yummy ... and a TON of food for the price we paid. And definitely try the queso dip -- it was outstanding! We will definitely eat here again soon!

Fresh and Delicious – Don't go to this restaurant expecting your standard Mexican menu, where you pick from 45 combo meals, all with a dousing of warmed-over rice and beans. Everything at Cafe Capistrano is a cut above, from the muy delicioso fresh (not canned) salsa served with perfectly-seasoned chips, to the fresh and flavorful dinner entrees. The folks at this restaurant aren't content to toss together some cheese and meat and call it dinner - they actually season their food and work to make the flavors meld together per... read more

West meets East, with Mexi-Cali food, a welcome diversion to Tex Mex. – In Short Casual Californian decor fits in well with the corporate types, families and couples that enjoy chimichangas, with a contemporary twist. Start with some mango shrimp and continue with huevos rancheros or Mexican salad with lime dressing. Mix it up in the festive atmosphere with some Sangria and make it a sweet finish with Mexican wedding cake or chocolate gooey buttercake.
