    Quesa Birria Tacos Enchiladas de Camaron
    Day V.

    This was awesome! The food was great and inexpensive. The service was quick and on top of the service. We were being checked on and didn't need a single thing! There's screens everywhere to watch the football game. It was really fun to be with a group of friends or family. I definitely enjoyed it here. Food was warm and flavorful.

    Came into town and came back to this place. Food here is very good and delicious. And they have a good price for lunch and drinks and food here for lunch is a good portion. Service here is good, I told the waitress and the manager I came here for the drink but, for some reason it didn't taste the same as 9 months ago when I came into town and compare to my first visit, and they wanted to remake the drinks for me but I had to leave. But next time I will still come back because the food, service and it was a pleasant visit for us to come back here. Ambience here wasn't crowded when we came around 1:00pm overall I recommended everyone come here and try their food if you haven't been here.

    This was my first time visiting Kalaveras in Montebello, and we went for lunch to celebrate Karla's birthday. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed perfect for a weekday lunch outing. I ordered four tacos: pastor, carne asada, barbacoa, and chicken. My favorite was definitely the pastor full of flavor and really well prepared. The barbacoa was good but could have had a little more seasoning. I had the green salsa, which was mildly spicy and just right for me. For my drink, I ordered the berry mocktail. It was a bit sweet at first, but once I added some water, it tasted perfect and very refreshing. Some of the girls ordered the same tacos I did, while others tried the tacos de papa, and everyone seemed to enjoy their food. We celebrated Karla's birthday during lunch, and she ordered a flan for dessert. We sang happy birthday, which made the moment feel extra special. The service was great friendly, attentive, and never rushed. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had a calm, pleasant vibe for a Tuesday afternoon. Another highlight was Taco Tuesday tacos were only $1.99, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was a really nice lunch, and I would definitely come back again.

    Ambience is quite noisy on the inside but there's plenty of seating both inside and outside! Service was lovely as we received our food rather quickly and were regularly checked up on. Food was delicious! I really enjoyed the enchiladas the most and have previously enjoyed their birria tacos

    Came in in a Tuesday during happy hour and the restaurant was fairly empty. The tacos were small but pretty good. I ordered the slushy lime margarita and it wasn't much of a slushy, but it still hit! Great vibe and very attentive server.

    Best deal in town is Taco Tuesday. Granted, many restaurants offer a special on Tuesday. I've tried different places and Kalaveras truly is the best in price and taste. There are 6 proteins to choose from, plus unlimited toppings. Each taco was $1.49 x 3 = $4.47. On my photos you can see the variety of grilled veggies and freshly made salsas. Add a beverage, tax and tip and your dinner is under $10.00. I must also mention the fantastic brunch on Sunday, $39.99 for adults (kids price is $19). The food is set up buffet style, with multiple food stations, seafood, pancakes, made to order omelets, and is AYCE (all you can eat). It's an impressive spread, there is something for all tastes and/or dietary preferences. It's a lively place with a DJ indoors and disco lights, seems like a party going on. There is a spacious patio with lots of tables, the music is at a lower volume, easier to have a little conversation. Bring the family and don't forget to tell'em that Rosemary sent ya!

    Free parking on the lot in the back. Came during Taco Tuesday. The tacos were $1.99 each. My favorite was the lengua. The others were good but either too salty or too sweet. You can get a plate of rice and beans for $5. The music was way too loud to have a conversation. We had to yell at each other to hear 50%. The waitresses don't even talk anymore, guess they learned to read lips. Great place to hang out. Not the place to talk.

    If you're looking for a party place, Kalaveras is it! Loud music, colorful decor, fun birthday celebrations (think smaller scale Vegas style..yes there is a marqee and bottle service is a paid option). Great for groups. Great Happy Hour (no complimentary chips and salsa during happy hour though). Service is usually friendly. One of my best friends is a regular so she knows the staff and is welcomed with open arms. I've been to this Silverlake location a handful of times. I don't have a favorite meal item. Yet. I am working on it though. Free parking lot available across the street plus whatever street parking might be available.

    From all the Kalaveras locations Montebello is the best, great service from the best waiter Alberto and Manager Edgar

    Kalaveras of Montebello was my go spot for any occasion I was such a loyal customer that we even had our wedding there unfortunately they have change GM and the restaurant has gone down last night my husband and I went for dinner around 8pm on a Friday but to our surprise the place was dead we order and after the appetizer we decided to cancel our dinner order and leave we end at La Barca in Downey. Last night was my last time at kalaveras we were very disappointed

    Guacamole
    Christian E.

    A must-visit for authentic Mexican food! The drinks are refreshing, the guacamole is fresh and creamy, and the ceviche is perfectly balanced. The lomo plate is a hearty, flavorful meal. Good tacos to try. Highly recommend! Great vibe for celebrating special moments, like a mom's birthday! The staff provide excellent service, and the atmosphere is perfect for family gatherings.

    Happy hour

    This place was such a vibe. They have great drinks, great service, and a fun lively ambiance. Food: 5/5 We got the nachos and that was so delicious. They have a delicious spicy cheese sauce and a ton of pickled veggies on top of their crispy chips. I would definitely recommend it! Drinks: 5/5 We got their margarita flights and it came out with a fire (seen in the picture). Their margaritas were pretty strong but tasted great. Service: 5/5 Their service was friendly from the second we walked in we felt the hospitality. We got seated quickly and they brought out chips and salsa before we even ordered. Ambiance: 5/5 There were a bunch of birthdays the night we went and it was lit. Tons of cute alcohol, live music, and vendors that come around selling flowers or getting you to take pictures. It was lively and friendly and I would definitely come here with friends or a large party. I also would love to check out their happy hours and get more of their large pitchers drinks.

    Taquitos Dorados Chicken
    Andrea A.

    Came here to celebrate my besties bday the first time they did a free shot and sang to her! It was amazing she loved it so much. Food was good specially the taquitos. The reason I took away one star is because the second time I came with friends again the server was not on their A game. Waited a while to order. And we had to keep waiving him down and even had to get up and ask for our check. Overall it's a fun place at night with a DJ. Warning crowd is very loud. Might come back for the taquitos.

It also comes with a wine bottle which is fabulous ! I asked for their rec from our waiter Louis and he said their Merlot and it was so yummy! Soo thank you (: So it goes like this, New York for two deal for $75.99 and the Rib Eye deal for $78.99 and you cook it yourself and their grill with all the seasonings and fix ins. I've been there two times with my boyfriend and both times we made our steak perfect. They also make their drinks ( I ordered a tequila soda ) pretty strong I might say. They have like 3 or 4 bartenders available so they were pretty attentive. Waiters were also attentive. We went around 7:30pm on a Saturday night. A crowd of adults from all ages were singing karaoke. It was good vibes, but it looks like it gets busy and packed. There is back parking, but if you do not know how to back up and park then you are basically screwed on a busy night so be prepared.

A complete dinner is available, served with a large baked potato, 2 pieces of garlic toast and little salad bar. I found the drinks to be well priced and the service was excellent. The bartender gave me crap for ordering girly drinks, but it was all in good fun. Oh and Friday they had some awesome Karaoke going on. I will 100% be back at The Venice Room.

A couple things to note: there is parking available, but it is paid (you can either text to pay or use the kiosk machines). The experience itself lasts about 40-60 minutes, which felt like the perfect amount of time. The only downside for me was that the bathroom is shared for both genders. For safety reasons, I personally wish they were separate--so ladies, I'd recommend going with someone just to be safe. You just never know. They also give you a little treat afterwards, which was a really nice touch and a sweet way to end the visit! Overall, I'd definitely come back and recommend it to others
