Really good food with matching good prices. Great place to go with friends or family. Nice portions. Close to Ballard's so would be a great alternative if your itching for something other than the ballard menu but your still gonna hit there.

One of the better low-key food places on Block. Huevos Rancheros is just what I want for breakfast, tastier and probably healthier than other breakfast places on the island.Their after breakfast menu is what really shines in my opinion!

The food is really expensive and didn't taste that good. The chairs are uncomfortable. It took a long time to get our food after ordering. I had ordered Carne Asada, expecting it to come already sliced but it was one big hunk. It was supposed to come with avocado, but it did not. When I asked about it, they said they're all out of avocados. It would have been nice to know ahead of time and to maybe get a discount on such an expensive dish missing one of it's parts.

Charming and family friendly little place serving decent Mexican food, the tacos are good, and the tamales are nice but dry. Don't bother with the elota, or Mexican street corn. It is just regular corn kernels in a bowl.

Spectacular....lunch was so good that we went back for dinner which was just as wonderful. Being in the restaurant business my whole life, I was surprised to find an authentic Mexican restaurant on Block Island. All ingredients were fresh and of the highest quality. Julio the chef/owner and his wife were a delight to talk to after we finished our meal. We will definitely be back next year when we visit the island. We wish we had a Mexican restaurant of this caliber near us in New Jersey.

When we took the ferry over to Block Island we were not expecting a knockout Mexican eatery with handmade tortillas and salsa. But Calaveras surprised us. Great food. Quality ingredients. Friendly and helpful staff. Plus we ate outdoors on the front lawn at a picnic table with a view of the Bay and enjoyed a lovely dinner before the last ferry back.

Couldn’t eat our fish & veggie tacos - very fishy chopped up fish and soggy, old, brown veggies. The waitress and cashier were very nice and accommodating, they did refund our money and said they had complaints about the fish before, but the kitchen staff didn’t make any changes. Still feeling queasy from the experience!

Best fish tacos (add avocado and cilantro!) and quac I have had on the east coast, and right up there with the best places in San Diego. Great to hear they are in Wakefield - please open up in Portsmouth, RI!

Stopped by here to get a rest from the sun. The drinks were refreshing, tacos were good, and ceviche was amazing. It's a nice small place with a chill atmosphere. Great place for a small group of people.

Mexican/Bulgarian style restaurant, I wouldnt call the restaurant authentic to one style. It's a order at the counter and seat yourself style place. Burritos, wraps, tacos. Bottles drinks, no alcohol served.
