Mexican Restaurants
Directions
The flagship restaurant in Oak Cliff, situated in a cozy house with a wide patio, has been serving coastal Mexican cuisine in a quaint atmosphere since 1981. The owners have since opened a second restaurant in Lakewood. What makes Calle Doce stand out among the area's panoply of Mexican fare is the focus on seafood-ceviche, shrimp cocktail served with avocado and cilantro, stuffed clams and blackened grilled tilapia, to name a few examples. It's the perfect place to sit outside and enjoy lunch or dinner accompanied by a margarita or a Corona.
