Calico Cactus

Sometimes you just want to give that hidden gym, serving food you like (breakfast for me) and I think we did just that. My kids were thrifting and I met them for lunch. Calico’s had both lunch and breakfast items, that suited my crew well. Service is happy and efficient.and we were greeted promptly by Hollin, who went on to make several recommendations, since we were first timers. She was just a really outwardly happy person, which is always good to see, because of the back of the house is happy too, well, happy people make good good. You can quote me on that. The restaurant is extremely clean and there is plenty of room to dine in. But you want to hear about the food. Scrambled Eggs on your face - their biggest seller, and for good reason, Bam Bam - my personal favorite, bacon, eg

Really cute store, we got a few things and we’ll include details below but overall super good ingredients, quick service, and friendly staff. The meat is well seasoned and the menu includes a variety of options for different flavor profiles. They also have their own salsa bar and they make their own tortillas on site. We got the Purple Tiger drink and it was 10/10. We’ll definitely be back to try more. Area 51 and Texas Hold’em: Very simple but well seasoned, pairs well with their spicy and tomatillo salsas. You can tell the tortillas are fresh, makes a huge difference. Bam Bam: Star of the show! My husbands favourite out of everything. Perfect blend of breakfast and lunch. The bacon is the perfect amount of crispy and the ratio of bacon to egg to pancake is truly outstanding. Calico Ha

Atmosphere was great and food was delicious. Salsa bar is a nice addition and food came out fast. Scrambled egg on the face taco, tumbleweed tots, and protein bowl were all delicious. Bee’s Knees latte was tasty too and came with edible bee treat. Tortillas are made in house and you can taste the freshness. Looking forward to going back and trying more.

We’re Texans first off and sort of skeptical. We were pleasantly surprised. All very very good! Including being warmly welcomed by a friendly helpful staff. Fresh flowers on tables. Orange juice fresh is squeezed. Caffe con leche and maple syrup latte were both a 10 out of 10! Tacos were very innovative, fresh and tasty. Now, are the tortillas as great as our favorite (Original Ninfa’s on Navigation St.) in Houston, Texas? No, but they were warm, soft and very very acceptable. Very clean inside. You can tell someone really cares about this business. Thank you!

Where to even begin!!! This is a HIDDEN GEM in STA. This was our first time and we had so many questions about the menu. Everyone working was SO nice answering all of our questions and even making substitutions because we were vegetarian!! Personal suggestion…get the BAM BAM sub potatoes for the bacon…and just thank me later! Everything we ate was phenomenal and don’t get me started on how amazing the coffee was! The Bees Knees with oat milk! I could drink this every single day!!! This was a special treat and a place we will be visiting anytime we are in St. Augustine! Run to eat at Calico Cactus, you will not regret it!!
