Vibe: Outdated charm, disrupted romance

The age-old setup of Casa Calderon strangely lends a unique funkiness to the ambiance. Though perfect for just hanging out or group scenes, it is not so much for a romantic date night. The noise can reach a crescendo, disrupting your intimate conversations. Also, the drink menu could disappoint you if you are looking for anything beyond beer and wine.

  • Okay Ambiance

    Old building provides a funky, unique vibe despite its age.

  • Bad For Dates

    Big parties might be noisy; possible disruption to romantic date setting.

Perks: Friendly service, parking pains

What Casa Calderon lacks in its vibe, it more or less makes up for with its service perks. The friendly and professional staff does an admirable job even though things can get a bit slow during busy times. Little ones are welcomed with a special kids menu. But when it comes to parking, prepare for a test of patience with their minimal shared space.

  • Great Outdoor

    Outdoor seating was perfect for a chill margarita experience.

  • Okay Service

    Mostly great service, occasional slower periods, staff is friendly and professional.

  • Hard To Park

    Very small shared parking space leads to significant inconvenience.
