I enjoy coming to this Mexican restaurant. Very large menu. I'm not hard to please and I believe their food is just as good as any upscale Mexican restaurant. Prices are very reasonable and give you a good portion! Only negative is maybe there should be a beer special everyday not just happy hour. Maybe pick a different beer for each day of the week or something? But, anyway, I'll be back since it's close to home and I like the food! Cheers! 👍

Jose was excellent and very patient. It was our first visit so it took a bit to study the menu. The complimentary chips and salsa was average at best but the main course was very good. It was not very busy on our visit so the kitchen had the food complete very quickly.

I was very impressed with the food here! The queso was hot, the salsa was tasty, the chips came out hot. The food was very fresh! We will definitely be back.

Great restaurant! The quality of the food & service has improved greatly since the new owners took over the location. Try the new chori-pollo!

Good food, friendly staff, fantastic margaritas!

It was ok. The drinks seemed pre-made. The server was great. The atmosphere is kinda .. cheesy

La Calaera serves up insanely amazing, authentic Mexican and Central American cuisine, with two vibrant locations in Baldwin and McMurray! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm, welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and—best of all—homemade chips and salsa right at your table.
The Baldwin location features a gorgeous central bar and plenty of cozy seating, conveniently located on Route 51. Whether you're there for happy hour, lunch specials, or a full-blown dinner, this spot is a must-visit!
The menu is expansive, with something for everyone—from classic dishes to bold, flavorful favorites. We tried the Mexican street corn (grilled on a stick with butter and seasoning—so good!), and the queso fundido with house-made Mexican sausage, which packed the perfect amount of spice. The homemade guacamole was a huge highlight!
Their margaritas are next-level—highly recommend the frozen strawberry and lime on the rocks!
For entrées, the fajita burrito with steak was stuffed with juicy meat, lettuce, pico de gallo, and melty cheese, all wrapped in a soft flour tortilla and served with rice and more lettuce. The quesabirria was a showstopper—tender birria-style beef folded into cheesy tortillas, served with a rich, savory broth for dipping.
And just when we thought we were too full—dessert happened. The fried ice cream had a crispy golden shell and creamy vanilla center, topped with whipped cream, chocolate drizzle, and a cherry. The flan was smooth, sweet, and absolutely decadent, finished with a perfect layer of caramel.
From top to bottom, La Calaera was a 10/10 experience. Authentic flavors, welcoming vibes, and seriously unforgettable food. Don’t walk—run!

You have to check out this new restaurant in the South Hills area. The food & drink were authentic & portions were good. But the best part was the price. We highly recommend and will be ordering out or dining in again soon.

Delicious food and Great service 👍🏻

One of my favorite places to eat. The BEST Mexican restaurant in the area and always great service and a very welcoming atmosphere. I love this restaurant!!! The food is so good.
