Story

Calexico is a real place. One of two major crossings between California and Mexico, the border fence runs right through the middle of town. Take a step south and you’re in Mexicali; a step north, Calexico.

This is not the California of surfers and movie stars. This is the Imperial Valley: hot, dusty, and off the beaten path. As the name suggests, everything about Calexico is a hybrid: the people, the culture, and especially the food.

Fast-forward a few years. We’re still out there slinging tacos and burritos on the streets of New York, only now instead of one cart we have a small fleet. And that crazy notion of a restaurant? It came true, a few times over. Nobody is more surprised by this development than we are.

Our business has grown, but what we do hasn’t changed one bit. We still wake up every day and make the kind of food we like to eat: fresh, flavorful, satisfying. People seem to like it. Hopefully you will too.

Buen Provecho,
The Calexico Brothers

Sometimes you have to endure a short wait, but the staff is always welcoming which helps. House margarita is ace and I didn't go wrong with the enchiladas. (Not too much sauce and cheese, for once!) I had a bite of the quesadilla - it was delicious and prepared well. The outdoor seating is where it's at when the weather permits! I've had poor experiences in the past with Mexican food anywhere in the 5 boroughs but Calexico has proven to be the exception!

The food was sooo delicious. I ordered the steak fries and the mexican corn. It was Flavorful and spicy. We got there late and the food was still freshly prepared. Cant wait to go back.

One of my favorites spots in the neighborhood. Food always tastes delicious. Staff always friendly. Drinks are on-point.

I was surprised coming in that this was a sit down table service restaurant having only been to the more fast casual Calexico in Red Hook. It's a little more expensive ($12.5 for a Carne Asada Burrito versus I think $11 at the other locations) but the food is excellent. I have been searching for a burrito that feels like a San Francisco Mission style burrito but in NY and this come real close. Great hot sauce selection!

Great lunch special. I didn't like the cocktail I had but I probably ordered the wrong thing.
