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

Amazing drinks, even better food, and a great staff make this a gem of Oakland. Glad they're about to celebrate their 1 year anniversary and hope they stick around for a long time!

I can't wait to come back here next time in town, and it will be my sole motivation for crossing the bridge from SF.
