First time we had been there and we loved it! We ordered chips and salsa and were able to pick out three fresh made salsas with our order. The chipotle had a great Smokey flavor and the pineapple was a great mix of sweet and tangy. Our tacos were fabulous! So much flavor and so much food! We also ordered what was like a fresh, tangy cole slaw and it was great! Our server was attentive and our food delivery was very well timed; barely felt like we waited between ordering and getting chips and salsa, finishing those, and getting entree.
Shout out to our server, Ms. Savannah! She was clearly busy but still made it to our table to check up on us and answer our million questions. The food was obviously made with care and the presentation was on point. The bar is absolutely gorgeous and the drinks were so satisfying. Caucho- you guys are killing it! ❤️Kalie&Kyah
Honestly, I'm usually pretty good about taking photos of the dish I order, but this time was different. My eyes made contact with the enchiladas and queso fundido, and I just lost it. I devoured both delicious dishes (with my partner) before I could remember to take a photo. What I'm getting at is this place has FANTASTIC food, and looks absolutely beautiful. Highly highly recommend stopping by here for a drink and bite to eat!
Fantastic food. Started with the chips and salsa. The 3 salsas were varied in heat levels, all good. Home made tortillas, delicious. Perfect rice and beans. We all had a variety of tacos. Everyone was pleased.
We came to Cedar Rapids after visiting Austin, Texas, earlier this month, and the Mexican food we got here at Caucho was far superior to what we had at a premiere Austin Mexican food eatery!!! 🤣 Everything was absolutely perfect — from the salsas to the fresh in-house tortillas to the mole sauce (always the best test of a Mexican restaurant). And the service was friendly and efficient!
One of the best places to eat well crafted Mexican food. Try it all!
On my first visit, I was super impressed. From the hostess, to the waitress, the food and the drinks. It was all above and beyond the level of service I have come to expect on Cedar Rapids. Big city service in the midwest!!!

Well what do you know? Cedar Rapids has a fine dining experience worth looking forward to. I tried Caucho a couple years ago, it was fine but lackluster. Not bad just not anything worth going back for.
Something has happened though and they are on their game now. Five of us at dinner tonight, fairly busy but not overly so. We were seated right next to the kitchen, which was great, I like seeing what's going on.
We weren't there for more than 10 minutes before I noticed that the staff were smiling and seemed to be enjoying their work.....a good sign.
Our waitress was attentive, friendly and pleasant AND genuine. We ordered some drinks (house made not mix-made margaritas) and appetizers.
Chicharrones: These were light and tasty. I would have preferred a shade of seasoning other than salt but they were well made. I wasn't impressed by the guajillo sauce but it was fine.
Chips (housemade) with verde asado and rojo salsas. Salsas were excellent with the Rojo beating out the asado by a bit.
Pozole stew: I'd go back for this alone. The broth was rich and light at the same time, meat was tender. I thought the hominy was a shade tough but not problematic. Fantastic.
Entrees
Chilaquiles: this was very good. Had I not also tasted a few other items I might have been more impressed. Very good flavors, nice presentation.
Carne tacos: the best taco I've ever eaten. Period. Niman Ranch beef. The other reason to go back, if there were no other.
Dessert
Churros and Chocolate: well it's not an amusement park churro, light and airy but custardy with a killer sauce.
The other standout? They make their own masa from dry corn to make the tortillas.
Keep up the good work. Best place in CR and probably IC.
Delicious! We dined in for passion fruit
Margarita, guacamole, empanadas, ending with very good flan and churros! We will be back.
Interesting place if you're visiting the area. The sister restaurant in town was better, but this is definitely an upscale unique Mexican place that was surprising for IA!
Get the horchata- it's not quite traditional but still great.
