"I LOVE Tacos Calafia! The best tacos hands down! This place is always steady or busy when we come in which is a good sign. The food is authentic and absolutely delicious. Typically, I order carne asada tacos — my picky daughter loves the food here too! They have a salsa bar with onions, cilantro, limes, different salsas, radishes, grilled onions and jalapeños. Everything is always fresh and delicious. The horchata here is also great treat to go with your tacos. Enjoy!"

"Food was ok. We all had tacos obviously but they were not that tasty. They were ok. The tortillas were sort of cold and not soft. Tha salsa bar looked good too. I wouldn't go here again."
