Mexican cuisine restaurants have a new avenue to indulge in their favorite fare-Calavera.

Entering the doors of Calavera, your eyes are drawn to the shelves above the expansive bar. The smell of smokey mezcal permeates the air. The food and cocktails are inventive without being overly fussy. You don't feel like you have to discern each element, you can just enjoy the whole as full experience. Meet a friend for drinks and snacks, or slow down and enjoy a multi-course dinner with your special people. Favorite time is weekends for micheladas and brunch.

As a senior citizen, I am sometimes reluctant to eat at restaurants alone. However, Calavera is very comfortable and inviting. The bartenders and waitstaff are always kind and helpful. I really enjoy the food and I've invited friends from San Jose to meet here because of the great atmosphere! I especially love the queso flameado con sotol!!

Wow! I mean, just wow. Brought some friends thru and had a wonderful time. My recommendation - drink lots of mezcal. There are so many to choose from.

I hands down love Calavera. From the agave selection on the wall down to every little bite it showcases excellence. I appreciate the love and honor they have for Mexican food and culture - it shows through the careful detail, from the copitas by Omar Hernandez of Oaxaca, to the handmade tortillas full of flavor, to the fresh ingredients they use. Yum!
