    Much like chipotle. I got the carne asada and the steak was perfectly cooked. Rice to steak ratio was not proportional.

    In addition to margaritas and food, they also have a pretty good selection of beer on tap.

    You can't go wrong if you go with anything that has Carne Asada. This place knows how to marinate some meat!

    LOL at their "burritos". $10 for rice and black beans dryly wrapped in a so-so tortilla with a sprinkle of "Baja Fish". Cool.

    Get the exclusive Sixpoint custom Brown Ale on tap! Nurse it at the bar where you'll be waiting at least 1/2 hr for a table - or give up + just eat at the bar

    Two words. Crack Sauce. And make sure you get the elote, off the cob and some guac.

    The quesadilla with steak is a must. Truly like the northern Mexico quesadillas.

    Great fish tacos, carne asada, and nachos. Douse everything in crack sauce. So. Good.

    Delicioso! Nachos to start, then their pressed quesadillas. Many options for vegetarians.

    Great lunch special. However - anyone else notice tacos are a little less delicious lately?

    Crack sauce until I die! BUT they need to sought out those "spicy margaritas". Not spicy in the slightest!

    One of the best guacs in town. The crack sauce with the quesadillas delivers on crackness. 📬

    Syndicato and 'Nights and Weekends' are within a block and a half from here. Try them. They're both worlds better.

    Is it a food cart or a restaurant?? It depends on the borough you frequent, but no matter what it is in a sea of Mexican food, Calexico is the spicy flavored beacon of light.

    Great spot. Has a dope takeout booth too. If you find the roving cart it's solid gringo-mex food.

    Oh former denizen of the sea, you are fried now and lay in tortilla with mango and crack sauce and are thus delicious.
