   This was my first time at a Kalaveras where it was very quiet with low music and we were the only ones in the restaurant which I thought was odd for a Sunday evening but maybe the Newport Beach location isn’t as popular as the other locations. Either way it was still a great time and towards the end of our time there they cranked up the music volume to its normally loud levels

   I have only been to this location twice and It did not disappoint 🤩 first time I tried the hot chocolate and it came with small conchas which btw it was the bomb. With a burrito 🌯 I thought it had a earthy taste which not going to lie it taste good! This being my second time coming to this place but for my birthday 🎉 and it was great service, food, and ambiance was awesome. Def planning on going back for another birthday 🎉 Thanks to our waitress she was so awesome!

   Food and drinks were amazing. Service was not good even though we were one of the only parties in the restaurant at the time. Very slow to get orders, forgot one of the dinner orders and had to find someone to let them know because nobody came back to the table to make sure we had gotten everything. Let the server know before we ordered that we needed to split the bill between two parties and the bill was still an issue at the end. Will definitely be back because the food is really good. Hopefully this was just an off night on the service side.

   This place was really amazing, lots of great food for choices, the atmosphere and ambience was incredible! I just wish there was more options for drinks with the brunch. But still amazing and will go back!!! ✨✨✨✨✨

   The music was wayyyyy too loud. Other than that It's a fun place that got crowded very quickly. The fajitas were great. The birria queso tacos were awesome.

    Had a good time and dining experience at Kalaveras in Newport Beach. We had reservations for the evening and arrived a bit early and decided to sit at the bar. Daniel, the bartender, was superb in both customer service and his craft cocktail mixology. We started with ranch water with Don Julio Blanco with Topo Chico and three limes muddled with mint and the empanada appetizer. The ambiance was positive, and the background music complimented the ambiance. My wife ordered the chile Verde chicken enchilada plate, and I had the chicken fajitas. Both dishes were well presented, hot and tasty. We also had a second round as Daniel mixed a great drink. Good people, food, and service. Highly recommended
