  Cute place!
  
  If you get anything, please get the guacamole for two! So fresh and flavorful!!
  
  I got the blue corn enchiladas, also good.
  
  I recommend if you're in the area! Good price, lots of food. Come hungry, leave happy!

  I like the decor and appearance of this Caliente Cab compared to the previous one in Kips Bay. Cool vibe here and TV's to watch sporting events. Outside seating is always a plus for really nice days out and if you're with a small group. The prices for happy hour drinks are tad bit more than desired though. $18 for one of those frozen margaritas. They're good but not necessarily strong which is partially what makes it not necessarily worth the price. Had to get a shot of whiskey to add to it to make it seem worth while.
  
  Other than that a cool spot in Greenwich Village area. Definitely recommended for outings or a casual date night out.

  I'm giving this place 2 stars and that's being generous. The two stars are for the drinks that were tasty and strong even though they gave me a headache. It was the middle of the daytime so in my opinion the drinks should have been at least half price or much cheaper not so pricey.
  
  Now onto the food the food was subpar and mediocre. We did order guacamole for one and elote corn. The guacamole for one didn't even look like one avocado, the tiny portion looked like a side order of guacamole that you would get at another Mexican restaurant along with your food. We ordered the special which was 14:99 you get to pick either two tacos two burritos or two enchiladas and a house margarita. I ordered Taco al pastor and a chicken enchilada but before I ordered the enchilada I asked the server if the enchilada had a green sauce on it and she kept looking at me like she didn't know what I was talking about and then she suggested that they have Tabasco sauce. I continue to ask no salsa verde does it have salsa verde because usually when I've gotten chicken enchilada they've been covered in some type of sauce. She had to ask one of her co-workers if it came with green sauce and came back and told me yes so I ordered the chicken enchilada. When the food arrived the chicken enchilada was covered in some type of red sauce and it didn't taste good at all the corn tortilla was soggy and inedible the taco al pastor was Square chunks of pork dressed in a tiny  amount of red type of sauce, the meat was dry it had about three or four pieces of diced onion no pineapple at all like I'm used to getting when I get al pastor and I didn't even try the rice and the beans that accompanied it.
  
  Now onto the service. service was not good at all. They made us wait at least 10 minutes before someone came over to take our orders and the place was empty. You don't get any chips or anything on the table as an appetizer most places at least give you chips and salsa. The chips weren't even fresh, the ones that came with the guacamole you could tell they were stale. The server was terrible. She never came over to ask us how we were doing if we needed anything else we had to keep asking her to come over to give us napkins or want more water or another drink. When the food was served the guy who brought the food out almost knocked my drink over it was a disaster I would never go to this place again way over price and mediocre food not my type of place at all

  I was extremely excited to try this place. Unfortunately I was disappointed . Let's begin with the service. I waited about 15 min for a menu and water. The manager who was older Hispanic male was very unpleasant. Next the food , we ordered carne asada tacos and the taco tower. Tacos were fine. The taco tower not so much. It was missing a touch of something. Very bland . The taco tower did not look like anything that the restaurant advertises. Not to mention the meat within the taco tower was not fully cooked.  Some parts of the tower the meat was pink.  Very disappointed especially traveling two hours to come eat here.  There were no specials such as happy hour. This restaurant didn't seem too customer friendly . More so for the looks and the money. The space and ambiance was nice. Overall some improvements can be made.

  I love this place every time I go. Where do I start?
  First--drinks. They have amazing margaritas (frozen and on the rocks) with a lot of flavors to choose from. Second--food is good. I always get a round of chips and guacamole, and then finish it out with two tacos. They have a lot of flavors here too: steak, chicken, with a variety of mixins. Third--you need to make a reservation. I've the line wrapped around the block and it's like organized chaos up front. I will say staff does a great job of making sure everyone is helped and accounted for. Great for date night, groups, birthdays, and so much more!!!
