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

Nice space, food and service was spotty. Umami mushrooms were terrible. Greasy and tasteless and Molé needed something more. Asked for salt. Never got it. Duck tacos were tasty but very greasy and served on these hard cold corn tortillas. Cochinita pibil was tasty and a good portion but came with 3 small tortillas. We asked for more. They charged us 3.50 for 4 more tortillas and one was torn.
Good food, good drinks, great atmosphere, wonderful staff.
Ambiance and scene is very nice. Food was OK. My chilaquiles were more like breakfast nachos....vertically no sauce whatsoever to call these chilaquiles. The ChurroDonas, queso fundido, and carnitas tacos were tasty but not enough to merit a second visit. And the service.....yeah mediocre at best which now explains the very hot or miss reviews. I really wanted to like this place but now I see why it’s not a big hit. The sad fact was that it was peak brunch time on Father’s Day and there were MANY empty tables. Time to addres... read more
The best Mezcal and BBQ ever
Not big portions, great taste in food. The chilaquiles are basically chips topped with meat, beans and sour cream... a no no, but over all good place.
A first time good experience! Good service and good food! The atmosphere was very good!!
Best Mexica/Oaxacan restaurant in Oakland. Unique menu and great selection of agave spirits.
