10 out of 10! Let's start with service. We had probably the best server we've ever had in a while! Attentive, truly cared about the food, and the customer experience. Thanks for being awesome!

Now the food. Fantastic! Absolutely delicious. My wife and I's new favorite Mexican restaurant. We started with the trash can nachos which are to die for.
The margarita flight is phenomenal. Probably the best trio of margaritas we've ever had.

Then there were the tacos. Really, really, good tacos. We had the asada which was also on point and then the birria tacos... So fricken good. Hats off.

The only disappointing part about this place is that there wasn't a hammock, so I could take a nap, and then wake up and try even more of the menu.

"I'll just try a bite" is how this starts.
The Confit Brisket Taco is slow-cooked, rich, and available for a limited time at the Kalaka Berkeley location only.

Some drinks feel harmless.
This is not one of them.
The Spicy Coconut Margarita is here for May…smooth, tropical, and just spicy enough to change the plan.

Slow-cooked brisket, house guajillo tortilla, guajillo crema, queso fresco, and cilantro.
It had no reason to taste this serious.
Available for a limited time at Kalaka Berkeley location only.

Meet May's main character.
The Spicy Coconut Margarita is smooth, tropical, a little dangerous, and available all month long.
One sip and suddenly your plans have range.

Slow-cooked brisket, house guajillo tortilla, guajillo crema, queso fresco, cilantro… and somehow still only called "a taco."
The Confit Brisket Taco is available for a limited time at the Kalaka Berkeley location only.

5 Star: Alex Ramos "The food was delicious and it was a big serving! Everything was very tasty and the sopapillas for the birthday girl were the icing on top!"

Smooth is the setup.
Spicy is the plot twist.
The Spicy Coconut Margarita is here for May, and it goes down a little too easy.
