the food is actually good. 5 minutes after we ordered, my husband got a burrito. They got 2 out of 3 drinks wrong. 15 minutes later, the rest of us got our food....which was wrong. Why is it so hard to take a simple order? The service was horrendous. They charged us more than the menu stated for the margaritas. that's illegal. the manager refused to change bill. Ridiculous. I have such a bad taste in my mouth now. So unfortunate. Completely disorganized, I am flabbergasted asking myself if this all really happened. Yes, it did.
I had an incredible dining experience at Calexico restaurant!
The tacos were absolutely delicious, bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. The chicken and waffles were a delightful surprise, combining savory and sweet in a mouthwatering way.
The restaurant's beautiful decor added to the overall ambiance, making it a fantastic place to enjoy a meal.
I can't wait to go back and try more dishes!

Amazing tax Mexican food! Highly recommend. We have been coming here for years - we usually ordering same food and never disappointed! Steak fajitas and baja bowl are my favorite! Fresh ingredients, tasty and very well portion!
They do have huge selection of mescal cocktails. Fresh draft beers 🍺
I love it and definitely will be back again and again
Nachos are very good too.
Great service and pet friendly restaurant
They do have outside seating and indoor seating as well.
They do take outs
Friendly staff
Reasonable prices still on that area 👏
Just came and tried jalapeños poppers- not bad
Michelada numero uno not okay, it’s not the one I’m getting one in Mexico, so just choose to drink beer

This place is very popular. The have kind and lovely environment insid. The food is okay but you can't say it is exceptional and the staff are really helpful.
I came here with my cousins for brunch and honestly it was fabulous. The atmosphere was lively, hip and relaxed. It wasn’t busy when I was there which was around after 12 pm. I love the vibes and the service was great. I definitely got the mimosa which was 2 for the price for one. One downside is I did wished they had unlimited cause girrrrrrrl!! We got the Brussels sprouts, the corn dish and also the jalapeño poppers. The Brussels sprouts wasn’t sweet enough and too sour for me. For my main course, I got the fish burrito bowl because whatttt?! It was tooo fulfilling that I had to pack to go. It was good times to catch up with my cousins and I’ll definitely stop by again.
A lot of the food here leaves some burn in your mouth, but it has amazing flavor. The decent sized hot sauce assortment at every table is a nice touch. The service is excellent. It’s really fast, and all of the waiters are really kind. There is outside seating and indoor seating. I highly recommend this restaurant for lunch and dinner with friends or family, but not more than 10 people.
Lovely place. Had a late lunch there. Loved the pork taco and the quesadillas. Food is well seasoned but not spicy hot. If you want heat, there are 6 different hot sauces to choose from. Prices are reasonable. Next time I will swing by for brunch. Staff is really good and nice. They know what they are doing.
Went their for the first time and wasn't disappointed. We ordered Jalapeno poppers (the BEST) and nachos.
You need to try the Margaritas You need to try the margaritas. they were super delicious, My fav is Mango I love it!
Love Calexico
