Calafia Kitchen - CARNITAS TACO - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Livermore, California

I took my friend here for an early birthday lunch and the weather was so nice so we sat outside! The area it's in seems pretty quiet and our server Paula was amazing! Her service was perfect and she gave so many good recommendations. I got French toast, scrambled eggs & veggies + we shared garlic fries for an appetizer and I wish I had room for dessert because everything was so yummy I can only imagine the dessert! We went around 2/2:30 on a Monday so it wasn't very busy but I definitely recommend for any occasion. read more

We were greeted and seated immediately. Not a huge restaurant yet the large amount of seating with plenty of space between is comforting. Romeo was our server. We ordered the Calafia Benedict with verde salsa, country potatoes, and 2 sides of sourdough toast (as we were splitting this ahead of our Mt. Diablo hike). It was delicious, light and clean. Happy with all the veggies in it. And the chorizo and hot link were not greasy yet brought together the south with our southern neighbors. We enjoyed the experience and look forward to returning. read more

Came here with Hubs for a late breakfast a few weeks ago as he couldn't stop raving about it. The restaurant was almost full and snagged a table by the window. Upon looking at the menu, many items they make in house, I instantly knew what I wanted. Chilaquilas. The last time I had it good was in Cabo. Other places I've tried was always lacking something. This place was not. It was fire . I went with the green sauce, supposively LESS spicy. I was sucking back on my teeth bc it did have a lot of heat. I still finished it despite the burn bc it was THAT good. Hubs agreed. The special coffee with cinnamon and raw sugar, kept hot in the clay/ ceramic mug was tasty too. I was surprised how it didn't need any cream or added sweetner. The play was very clean, and floors swept after each customer, even the restrooms. Will try other things this weekend, bringing the whole fam. read more

I went here in the morning for my birthday, nobody really was here so it was just me and my family eating here. I ordered Eggs Con Chorizo and potatoes, they first of all made the eggs and chorizo separate - not together - which was the first red flag. As i'm eating, I take a forkful of the eggs with the potatoes. I'm then hit with a piece of literal plastic in my mouth. I spit it out and sent my husband inside. The owner ended up coming out and opened up with "we don't use plastic in our food" and starts going into detail about how they use zero plastic insinuating that I put plastic in my own food. That was just outrageous. Anyways thanks, do better, don't tell your customer they are in the wrong for food you put on my plate. read more

Just moved to the area. Upon arrival the patio was full. Inside there were a few guest enjoying their meal. The ambiance was nice. Two tvs with games on. Nice bar with drinks well presented. We were greeted at entrance and immediately seated. They offered regular coffee and café de ollo. The café was amazingly delicious with the cinnamon taste. We ordered chilaquiles with carnival, strawberry/ banana French toast with country potatoes, tres leches pancakes and kids chicken tenders with fries. Everything was so good. The portions were sizable. The chilaquiles with two over easy eggs and avocados was exceptional. We will definitely be coming back. read more

I came by after a late flight to town from work travel. I was craving some tacos and a refreshing drink. I saw on their website they had a Monday special for 3 tacos with a drink for $15. To my surprise, they said they did not have any specials so I just paid for the three taco plate and lemonade drink. It is a bit pricy for just three tacos without any sides like beans and rice or chips. The three tacos I got were steak, carnitas, and calafia. The best one was carnitas as it had the most flavor, second calafia, and last steak which had little to no flavor. The salsa was good and had a little spice which I liked. I also enjoyed the strawberry lemonade but was not happy about paying for refills. Presentation and proportions were on par and I would visit again when I am in the area to try some other items on the menu. Overall the restaurant was clean the staff was friendly and the service was good. read more

Calafia Kitchen - Three tacos with strawberry lemonade - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Livermore, California

Great place to come. It was hopping! Lots of people and it was a fun atmosphere. Our server was super attentive and the salad came quickly before the food. We split a garden salad. It has lots of pecans. They also split it on two plates for us. Nice! Blackened salmon unfortunately came out not blackened. Somehow a mix up. It was good, just missing the spices. The mashed potatoes were not creamy and seemed dry, but the green beans were excellent. Juliet's favorite bacon burger was huge! It had a lot of bacon on it and yummy. The burger could have been seasoned with salt or other seasoning. It was a bit bland. The garlic fries were the best! They weren't too crunchy or too soft. Perfect. The taste was so good. The carnitas taco and fish taco might be better but unfortunately came out cold. Overall the stuff on it was a great mix. The chipotle sauce was not too spicy and really added to the flavor. The double tortillas allowed me to catch all the fillings and gave me an extra taco! Overall we enjoyed it. Just a few suggestions to improve a great place to stop by for dinner. Thanks again to the excellent staff who treated us so very well! read more

Stopped by here for lunch and it was great! We ordered 2 Calafia Burgers with cajun fries and garlic fries and it was super delicious! Definitely get the garlic fries, they put a good amount of garlic and it tasted great with the burger. I was pretty hungry and tired because I ran a half marathon that morning so I had an appetite! They were very generous with the portions with their double patties. I only had room to eat half and I took the rest to go. We were seated right away and the service was nice and friendly. The area was clean and the ambiance was causal nice. Saw a lot of tables with families and people watching sporting games on the screens. I'd recommend this location if you're in the area for good brunch/ lunch spot! read more

Needed a good breakfast spot between Oakland and Stockton for my mom's birthday. This was perfect. I arrived 10 minutes before our reservation, and they seated me no problem and brought me a coffee right away! As everyone else arrived, they checked in several times for coffee orders. Service was great, the food was amazing, and the location is really easy to get to. We sat near a window, which was nice and warm, but had roll-down shades to mute the sun. They helped us celebrate with complementary ice cream and churro sticks with caramel sauce. Yum! Would highly recommend this spot! read more

Inside the restaurant smelled like burnt plastic, above all the service was terrible. The waiters name was Romeo or Romel, I ordered a Turkey club and he charged me for mayo! Mind you that the sandwich was already overpriced and He handed me the bill while I had both my hands full in the middle of a bite! That server was far from polite and was unwelcoming. Wish I could give this a no star rating. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while now with all the raves and I finally came for lunch with my cousin on a Thursday, 10/16/25. There was no wait and we got a kind gentleman server. He was great. I got the Philly cheesesteak with garlic fries and my cousin got the Calafia eggs Benedict. The garlic fries were really good, I finished it all. I took one bite of the cheesesteak and I was so disappointed! It was so bland and had no flavor. The bread was stale. The meat was thicker than I liked. Usually Philly cheesesteak has really thinly sliced beef. It barely had any grilled onions. And the cheese was not even a melty cheese, they used Swiss. Usually it's with provolone, American, or cheese whiz. It was just dry and nothing about it screamed cheesesteak, it was the worst "cheesesteak" I've had. I couldn't get past just one bite. Also, my cousin said her hollandaise sauce was bland too. Her dish was just mediocre. With so many other places to try, I'm not sure if I'll come back. If I do, I'll try something else, but def no more cheesesteak for me. read more

This spot seemed pretty lowkey to me but it was pretty amazing! Our server was super nice and he gave my girlfriend a complimentary piece of cake for her bday! The food came out pretty quick too and it was delicious. I had a coke and the salmon burger, it was hard to choose because many of the options looked great. Overall a really great spot read more
