Excellent food and I love their dessert, flan! I've had many meals at Mi Calvillo that have been great. My favorites are the Ultimate Fries, Chicken Flautas, Carnitas, and the most convenient of all are the Quesatacos. You can choose you choice of protein over a crispy torilla with melted cheese. On top of the generous protein portion, they pile on lettuce, salad fixings, cheese, and a garnish of pickled onions. The Quesataco is one of my favorites. I usually get dessert and my favorite is their flan.

Tacos were good but I payed over $4 for a dry hard tamale. I ordered a red one and got a green one. I would not have minded if it was good. However, it was hard and dry. If your not willing to eat it, don’t sell it to your customers

Simple seating, no bar, small restaurant but this place is definitely worth grabbing a to-go order. The food was fantastic. We enjoyed the fajitas and will be back to try more.

Great spot for authentic Mexican food! The staff is super friendly and always pays attention to what you order. Food comes out really fast, and there's always a place to sit. Everything we’ve tried—tacos, tortas, enchiladas, and birria—has been delicious, full of real Mexican flavor. Best part? They welcome you with free fried wheat wheels (chicharrones de ruedita)! Definitely a place worth visiting.
