Mexican restaurant · Bedford-Stuyvesant

"Calaca is a tiny, cash-only Mexican spot in Bed-Stuy that’s easy to miss - but it serves food you’ll want to keep coming back for. The flour and corn tortillas here are made to order, and the best things on the menu are the crunchy tostadas topped with big portions of various ceviches. Plus, the flights of mezcal and tequila come with detailed descriptions, and both hibiscus and jalapeno salt on the side." - Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren
