    Shrimp Blackened tacos
    Maggie H.

    Solid blackened shrimp tacos. Definitely a casual lunch spot. Have been pretty consistent quality.

    Asada Street Tacos
    Karlee G.

    Just moved to the area and stopped by, we were so impressed! I ordered the asada tacos and they were delicious. The menu has a super wide variety, Mexican in the back and breakfast/brunch in the front, so any person in your party will be satisfied. The staff were very friendly and efficient, and the interior had lots of cute decor.

    Nachos
    JonPaul M.

    Fast, attentive service with tasty fresh nachos and savory tacos. I was apprehensive about the price but the food was pretty good.

    Two tacos black bean and chicken Parmesan.

I highly recommend the truffle wagyu burger, which was a standout; perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. We addes the duck confit fries to our order which made our meal even more decadent. The other top notch meal was the braised lamb which was the house special. Large portion and complex with delicious flavors. The fried chicken waffles are stacked tall and is a tower of crispiness. The kale and cesear salads have fresh ingredient and perfectly dressed. I also appreciated the attention to detail in accommodating dietary preferences, ensuring everyone in our group had an amazing experience. I can't wait to return and try more of their menu! Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a unique dining experience.

This was my third time here and I had the 'El Dorado' - Sea Bass, which was fantastic. I live about 30 minutes away (...depending on 101 traffic....) and the food is easily worth the trip. Cafecito offers a very original take on a Cuban-Chicago style restaurant with a dash of California style. My wife had the Milenasa pressed sandwich which was made to perfection. Be aware of the cooler with the assorted pieces of dessert... it gets me everytime... I tried the Tres Leches and ended up eating the whole thing.. During our visit, there was a customer that came in with a 'to-go' order that she had placed and wasn't happy with it. She stormed in and interrupted two guests that were in the middle of placing an order at the counter. The manager stayed professional and kindly asked her to lower her voice and that he would address her once the couple finished placing their order. Once the couple left, the angry customer (gen z/young adult) started berating him about the meal and lack of customer service. The manager stayed calm and collective offered her a full refund as well as a re-cooked meal that she ordered earlier. However, this wasn't enough for her, she wanted blood. The manager kept composure, realized he was in a lose-lose situation, and calmly told her she needed to leave, which she complied. The manager was being rage baited and he handled it like a pro! This is a small 'mom and pop' shop pushing to make it in the tough climate of Calabasas. They are unique and treasure quality. This place is a true gem and I look forward to their growing ambitions!

    Amazing food and very friendly staff at Cafecito. I also enjoyed the decor it made me feel at home.read more

    Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, flow sista!…read more I love little gems where you can have some good food, good vibes and great company! My sugar sugar came by my job and we decided to hang out locally until traffic died down. We actually were looking for another restaurant and realized it wasn't there. He recommended this spot in the same area. For some of y'all this may be a normal place to go but for me it was my first experience and I was excited! My hot date and I have a tradition of trying espresso martinis wherever we go. So of course we ordered those. He got the veggie burger and I got the chicken piccata - subbed the chicken for salmon. The waitress recommended to have it blackened. So glad I did!! The salmon was a great cut and seasoned and cooked to perfection! The noodles with the lemon and capers were amazing. It came with a side of arugula salad that was tasty, especially with the generous amount of shaved Parmesan on top! Sugar sugar's burger was good and his fries were yummy!! Service was great from our host, to the waitress, to the people who brought our martinis and dinner out. The weather was fantastic so sitting outside was definitely a treat. I'll be back for sure for that salmon piccata and asking for that espresso martini ya-ya da-da!!!

I did not like the Porta via scramble. It was very bland for my taste and I could not take more than a couple of bites. The potatoes and the baguette (yes the carbs) were definitely better. The condiments for the bread were ssoo good. The neapolitan omelet with the burrata?! That was and made up for the blandness of the other one. I do wish there was more of the toppings though. Because the burrata is a strong cheese, it needed more tomatoes and avocado. The matcha was not strong enough for me and it didn't feel like there was enough caffeine in it so I was disappointed. The juices were much better! I ordered for the Morning Do for myself and I could easily have more of it. I'm not a huge carrot in my drink fan so I cannot speak about the triangle. The server was nice and was chatting with the regulars in between checking on their customers, it was cool seeing the sense of community

We were seated promptly and our drinks order was taken though I might suggest handing a drink menu out, I understand there is a coffee shop in the shared space (that gives off a wonderful freshly brewed coffee aroma) but our server just listed off a few drinks off the top of her head and that's what we chose from. We also ordered and were happy to receive our food promptly as we looked upon other tables receiving their food we definitely want to go back to try the plates we didn't order they looked amazing. I had a wonderfully seasoned avocado toast with an egg on top. Chilaquiles were also ordered at our table and if the salsa isn't spicy enough you can ask for their habanero sauce on the side. The last plate was a build your own omelette, it was kind of boring but ordered that way as the person that ordered is on a calorie deficit. The side of potatoes were delicious and well seasoned. For drinks we ordered black coffee, chai latte with oatmilk and an orange juice. My only complaint about my chai latte was that it was a bit over on the sweet side so maybe I'll ask for no sugar next time. Overall everything was delicious and will definitely go back.

It was sadly a disappointment aside from the latte I got the market salad with chicken - for one it looked gorgeous so I was excited, and it literally had zero flavor. Even the dressing had to add salt just to eat it- I've never added salt to a salad before for reference lol to add to that it was $27 before tax and tip. For a terribly bland salad. Looked pretty tho! My fiancé and future mother in law had pancakes and crab cake Benedict. I tried the pancakes after my salad cuz I wanted something yummy to top off the bland meal - she warned me they weren't that great and kind of dry. Sadly, she wasn't wrong those were $20 or so... didn't have any fruit or anything to make it special. ihop may have been better.... The crab cake Benedict for $28 was "ok". We have zero problem paying that money for a meal that's delicious but we would have had better luck staying home and cooking in. Just really nothing to write home about and absolutely wouldnt come back :(

The service we received was also excellent, thanks especially to our server, Blake, who really made the experience more enjoyable. Star of the Night: Without a doubt, the focaccia was the best I've ever had. Perfectly fluffy, flavorful, and truly next-level. The pizza butter was a nice touch, though not as memorable as the bread itself. Appetizers: * Caesar Salad: I wasn't a fan of the presentation with the large anchovies on top. I don't mind anchovies in the dressing, but having them laid out on the salad wasn't appetizing. * Tempura Mushrooms: Great flavor, but they were overly fried, making them a bit too hard and masking the mushroom itself. The sauce that came with them was delicious, but there wasn't enough of it to balance out the crispiness. * Grilled Shrimp: Unfortunately, this one missed the mark. The plating was very plain compared to the other dishes, and the flavors just didn't come through. It felt like the dish could use a serious upgrade. * Hamachi Crudo: This was a highlight! The passion fruit purée paired beautifully with the fish, though the extra oil on the plate caused separation and made it hard for the sauce to stick. A small tweak here would make it perfect. Entrees: This is where the meal lost momentum. After the apps, it took about 30-45 minutes for the mains to arrive, which felt unnecessarily long since the full order had been placed upfront. By the time they arrived, the dishes themselves didn't really deliver. * Scallop Curry: Decent flavor, but the scallops could have used a much better sear to really shine. Something about the plate felt a little off-balance. * Pappardelle with Short Rib Ragu: The pasta noodles were well-made, but the short rib lacked depth of flavor and tenderness. It seemed undercooked for what should have been a slow-braised, melt-in-your-mouth kind of meat. Overall, the dish was bland and uninspired. Drinks & Dessert: I skipped the cocktails because none really stood out, but the glass of wine I ordered was excellent. We also passed on dessert after waiting so long for the entrees. Final Thoughts: The restaurant has a lot of potential, the ambiance is beautiful, the focaccia is unforgettable, and the service (thanks to Blake) was wonderful. But the rest of the menu felt inconsistent, with several dishes needing more attention to detail in both flavor and presentation. I'm glad I finally tried it, but for me, the focaccia and service were the true highlights of the night.
