Jono MallanykNovember 25, 2016The raw tuna tostada is my favorite appetizer anywhere. Best guacamole I've had in NYC. Other highlights: the fish quesadilla and the margaritas. Great staff too.
Emily WilsonApril 14, 2017It looks unassuming, but they've got a fire drink menu and excellent food. The tuna tostada is absolutely delicious and the shrimp taco might be my favorite taco in NYC... Who's behind this place?
Sam HerbertAugust 17, 2018Guacamole was fantastic, carnitas quesadilla was good, not amazing, service was wonderful! I believe the place has been under new ownership the past 6 months. No alcohol at the moment. Great vibe.
Fantastic food, great drinks! Good place to impress. Get a michelada and you can’t go wrong with any of the food.

Tanya TestMarch 13, 2016Get the gobernador taco and Psychedelic mezcal flight. Super friendly service, amazing mezcal, thoughtful decor--a real gem of a place.
Matt VargheseAugust 4, 2017Very intimate spot - there are only like 3 people working here - but service is personal. unbelievably good micheladas and shrimp tacos. they were out of fish so we will have to come back to try them!- Lucile HechtJuly 22, 2015Ceviche! And margaritas! Especially the whitefish ceviche was wonderful. And I love that they make the tortillas (and chips!) in house.
Ricardo ContrerasAugust 28, 2014All the tacos and quesadillas here are great, my favorites are the fish tacos and the pork tacos
Elysia MannJanuary 27, 2017Excellent raw fish tostada and tacos. Veggie quesadilla is extraordinary even though it sounds very ordinary
Kaya GrimMarch 4, 2017Tortilla chips seem home made and quesadilla is delicious and almost addictive. Prices are great too.
Sarah SpagnoloJune 24, 2015Call ahead—this tiny taco shop is closed on random nights. Speak loudly when ordering; my server got it wrong three times. And plan to pay more for dinner than you expected.
- Pueblo Viejo TequilaApril 1, 2016The Easter colors reflect in a Margarita mixed with Pueblo Viejo. Get yours here at Calaca!
JessicaJune 28, 2017The waiter spilled elote with tapatio on my friend's jeans and told her she needs to "realize it was an accident" instead of apologizing or comping anything on the bill. 👍 food, 👎 service.
