I wouldn't go there just for the food. It was fine but not great. There are much better Mexican options around. The drinks and tequila menu is good though and it is fun to sit rooftop on a summer...

It's really a 3.5. They have a great tequila menu. Any bar/restaurant that offers Siete Leguas tequila is alright by me. The shrimp tostada is tasty. The crab chimichanga was pretty good. Margaritas...

I had not checked out the reviews because we were meeting a group that had suggested the restaurant for our annual kick off dinner in Lake Tahoe. They are locals so I figured it would be a good...

On Lake Tahoe, it's hard to find a restaurant with an upstairs patio that has a great view of a vacant lot across the street.I also look for a Mexican restaurant with liberal use of the words...

I would have to agree with the rest, the food is pretty good if it is warm and gets there on time the carnitas tacos are the best of the group but leaking grease (must be what makes them so good). The...

A sister restaurant to Gar Woods in Carnelian Bay, this little Kings Beach enclave also has a strong spirited cocktail menu. While Gar Woods has the Wet Woody, Caliente carries it's own one-and-done...

Great decor, nice folks but....pretty pricey and I wasn't a big fan of the menu. If you bring kids, you'll definitely be disappointed - a little too pricey and dishes were too upscale for their...

I'm usually pretty patient about service but this place is just unforgivable. It was so bad we have no comments about the food. The host just didn't give a shit as customers walked out pissed. If...

We went here on Valentine's Day. We weren't aiming for a high end place, just some good Mexican food, and preferably, a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. We should have turned around as soon as we walked...

The only reason I even give this one star is because the site won't let me give it no stars. Horrible, horrible, horrible. I've been there twice and my fiance and I had completely different things...
