We went back after a few years to this place, and a few of my favorite things were missing from the menu, and those were very famous and highly appreciated by people. Still, we find a few new things; people who love chicken dishes can be disappointed because few choices are left on the menu. The first person who served us at the table was sad, but that could be that particular day for him. Then, our Hostess came and brightened our day. Esmarelda was very sweet and familiar with the menu and little details. I started my food with black bean soup, which was delicious. The rest of the tapas were good, too, especially the lamb chops. Birthday cake trees leche were decorated with little cards. Thankful to our hostess, who thoroughly enjoyed her work. I highly recommend it, but please make a reservation even on weekdays

Came here late on a weekday and the deck was still very lively. I was worried they were closing but they happily served me. Service was excellent, the ambiance was great as it was also a very nice evening, and the food was good. I had a fennel and goat cheese salad that was really fresh and refreshing to match the late spring/summery night and an eggplant dish. Not inexpensive but an enjoyable meal.

An amazing experience. We were immediately seated for our 6pm reservation. Mid week early dinner really didn't need reservations at this time. Being my first time to Cascal, better safe to have reservations. The dining room is large and plenty of spaces between tables. We started with a pitcher of red sangria and tapas samples. Yum! We eventually shared paella and a pork dish. Too much food for three people. Not a bad problem to have. I recommend Cascal for those that enjoy Spanish tapas, paella, and sangria. You'll love Cascal!

We picked this restaurant to celebrate Mother's Day. We ordered the crab tostaditos, sizzling shrimp, churrasco, Cuban wrap and corn poblano saute. The churrasco had a small steak that was cooked to perfection and was flavorful. The crab tostaditos were refreshing and the shrimp was garlickie and spicy but delicious. But the winner in our view was the Cuban wrap. The corn poblano saute was good but in my view overpriced. The service provided was excellent considering it was a very busy day. We will definitely come back to try their other dishes.

Came here with relatives after a show on a Friday night, there was live music, and the ambience was overall really nice. Even though they were crowded we were served promptly. The waiters were very nice and attentive, and the free appetizers were great! I ordered the Banana Leaf Chicken, my aunt ordered the Peruvian Ceviche, and my mom had the Lamb Carnitas. We all like our dishes a lot, I thought the portion sizes were perfect, and the spiciness level was on point too. We had a hard time deciding which dessert to order, ending up having the Bread Pudding, which was alright, thought there were a bit too many textures and flavors contrasting in it for our liking, next time we'll probably go with the cheesecake or the flan. Overall we enjoyed our food so much, and are already looking forward to the next time we can come!

I always wanted to try this restaurant and Gina's a chance to go there for lunch on weekend. This place is always popular! There is inside and outside tables and the mood in the restaurant was nice! I can go there with many occasions, family, kids friendly and nice date as well. They have a lot of vegetarian options. I ordered non alcoholic drink which was pretty good! You must order their paella! Small size is good portion for two!

All the food I tasted was deli and no, it's not all pictured here. FYI, this is not a "Mexican" restaurant, it's Peruvian. All delicious but don't expect Mexican staples. The service was friendly and quick. Only thing is, they didn't ask how we wanted our check and they brought it all together and it was as always, a pain in the ass to split. Ambiance is nice, private, quiet and comfortable. Not being from here, we are reeling from the costs and taxes but oh well.

Celebrating Galentine's is a yearly tradition with my work bestie. We went to Cascal this year and it's packed even on weeknights! Secured a reservation on Open Table. Love the energy & vibes! I heard there's live music on weekends. Vibrant interior and cozy heated patio seating. Drinks: *Cascal Mojito *Guavarita Eats: *Wild Mushroom Empanadas *Tapas Sampler Platter *Churrasco flat iron steak + fried yucca *Banana Leaf Chicken Empanadas smelled so good! Fragrant in truffle oil as soon as I sliced it in half. The tapas sampler is MASSIVE! Two portions of the following pintxos: Serrano ham Cured salmon Chicken liver mousse Tuna crostini Fried shrimp Serrano ham croquette Spanish chorizo with fried olives & shishito peppers Date brochette Spanish cheese wrapped in salami Shrimp stuffed egg Roasted sweet red peppers & pickled veggies Churrasco steak was delicious & tender even when we were so full of pintxos-- that's how you know it's amazing! Topped with Cabrales cheese butter & chimichurri Banana leaf chicken reminded me of something my Mom cooked recently. Basically anything with tomato paste & chicken reminds me of afritada. Wait staff was prompt and waters refilled when needed. Refreshing drinks, delicious food, and fun convo-- all you need for a much needed Girls Night Out!
