Margaritas and Family
Shane G.

We stayed very close to Casa Calaca while on a recent visit to Salida. We didn't try ot until our last night and we are sorry we waited. We probably would have gone again if we tried it earlier. The Margaritas are delicious with fresh squeezed lime juice. Of course chips and salsa are always good, but we loved their spicy salsa. I had the Casa Calaca Especial. It was delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked and tender and the bacon wrapped shrimp were large and tasty. Large portions of food, great staff and comfortable setting. If you're looking for a place to try in Salida I would highly recommend.

Stop here! Great Mexican food. We always make out first assessment with the salsa which did not disappoint. The green salsa was served warm and it was delicious too. We split the bacon wrapped jalapeno pepper appetizer. The bacon was crispy which is always a plus. Next we split a large guacamole salad. Also very tasty with just the right amount of flavor from the lime and cilantro. We ordered ala carte items- Chicken taco, Bean and cheese chalupa, and cheese enchilada. All was just what you expect. The Classic Margarita was also perfect. Good teamwork defined the staff. All hands were on deck to anticipate our every need. Keeping the water glasses and chip baskets full.the decorations were typical southwest colors and items - pottery and baskets. Really a total package and delightful lunch. Definitely will stop here again.

Really cool theme . Food was ok . The best thing was the salsa on the green enchiladas . Service lacked from hostess to server.

We stopped here on our road trip for lunch. The food was amazing and the service was friendly. Portions are huge! The restaurant is decorated really cute too!

Street Tacos with el pastor and carnitas

Great place for the street tacos! We got the el pastor and carnitas tacos and they were so good! The el pastor had chucks of pineapple and both were very tender. We also had the patron margaritas with fresh lime just for $14 which I highly recommend! Come here and get the street tacos!

Name of Restaurant and its menu!

The staff were welcoming and attentive. They were patient with us as we read through the many choices, some with unfamiliar names. I asked questions which were answered immediately. I had one of the house specialties - Pina Loca for $26.00. The food was served on a halved pineapple and that made for an inviting presentation. But even better than that was the actual taste of the food! Delicious. It was grilled shrimp, chicken, peppers, onions and the pieces of pineapple all accompanied with pico, guacamole & sour cream along with rice and refried beans. Too much food for me, but I sampled everything. And the playful characters in the restaurant- the Caracas - make you want to learn more about the cultural relevance of the name and skeleton motif everywhere. Yes I looked it up, it's a multi-day participatory arts festival in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, held during the Day of the Dead (early November) to celebrate with skull/skeleton art. The restaurant was a fun experience with great food!

Margaritas-all ice

Son't order margaritas, get food to go and make your own at home Food is great and very fresh

Stopped here on the way to the Sand Dunes…read more Great personable service! We liked every beer in our flight: Dark Matter, Rye'd or Die, Charlie's Brown and the Sunset Sour. For food we had the Pastrami Sandwich ... To.Die.For!!! And the All American Smashburger. We were even more in luck with an Irish Band jam session. Totally recommend this place!

Trying to catch all the local breweries in Salida, CO. Each…read moreis unique in their own. Stopped in to check it out; a Sunday, several people sitting at tables and a few at the bar. It's a fairly large interior and nicely decorated but low keyed; nothing extravagant but nice homey feel. We sat at the bar; the place now started to get really busy. I had the Charlie Brown; Pours a thin head on a light brown body. The aroma is mild grain and molasses. The taste has a mild sweet start with a nutty backend. The texture is thin. It has great flavor. Apparently it was the beer for the day since many patrons were selecting it. My other half ordered Zinga Son; a nice Mexican lager; tastes very similar to a Corona but the taste was much more rich and crisp; with a tad German hops and Mexican yeast. And yes a food truck on site for those that are hungry works and co-exists with the brewery. The menu is simple but effective. We did order a large pretzel with a nice German stone ground mustard. Enjoyed our time there! Also a shout out to Abby who handled the steady flow of customers and an extremely busy Sunday. She did it all with poise and grace! Stop in if you're in the area.
