    My experience at caracara was very nice. We had the guacamole for starters. We also had  Tacos De Camarones, Quesadilla, and  Nachos De La Casa with shrimp. For drinks we had frozen sangria, espresso martini, and margaritas. Everything was great. The waitress was extremely kind and pleasant. My friend did not like her first entree so the waitress took it back nicely and gave a recommendation that turned out to be good. Overall the service was great and the food was good. Everyone was nice and checked on us throughout our dinner. Definitely recommend.

    This restaurant offers a delightful dining experience before or after a performance at BAM. It’s a few blocks from BAM. There is outdoor seating. We started with spicy guacamole while the mixed ceviche was a hit with our granddaughter, who couldn't get enough of it (it wasn't quite to my taste). Our granddaughter enjoyed her steak tacos, and my pork tostada—which came as a pair—was delicious. My husband's mixed tacos were also delicious. The atmosphere is charming and the staff are attentive. We recommend this place for a delicious meal in a cozy space.
