El Califa is a great place to have a taco without feeling pressured to leave by the queues. Cannot go wrong with Taco al Pastor or the quesadillas. I was recommended to try a crater, which I’ll definitely do next time.

Comida por arriba del precio regular (pero se entiende por la zona y la hora). El sabor regular, los tacos de pastor demasiado condimentados. Porciones pequeñas.
