We LOVE Mexicali Express! This is the best Mexican food ever! more

I have been eating at Mexicalli for about 20 years. This restaurant is one of my favorites for fast food. The food tastes fresh and many of the employees have been there several years and are great. I no longer live near this restaurant but always stop by when in the area. Thanks for the great food and service through the past 20 years. Pros: Great Enchiladas and Fries Cons: I wish it was closer to my house more

I really, really want to love this place. I cannot say i do, but there are a couple nice things that if the rest came together, could make this place good. They have a nice selection of fresh condements for you to make your food your own. Its a far better meal than typical fast food mexican, and you cannot expect a ton from fast food anywhere, but would be nice to see the meat quality improve a bit. I might suggest the owners sample some of the Aztec Willie choices, especially their brazilian - seems like a fast food version of that, with some nice AUTHENTIC taco truck choices might bring this place to the next level. Pros: its fast food - set expectations accordingly Cons: better than most fast food, but still - ingredients could be improved more

Having lived a chunk of my life in a state where good, authentic Mexican food is ubiquitous -- meaning, good authentic Mexican food can be found in hole-in-the-wall restaurants and EVERYONE knew it ... meaning you would hardly eat at nicer restaurants, including chain restaurants, because they were never authentic ... meaning, you get my drift. That said, I appear to gravitate towards barebones eateries, where, faced w/o the veil of ambiance, the restaurant is forced to serve up good food. more

A great little hole in the wall....I really love the tastes of their food. The salsa bar is great and has great variety. They have a salsa/ranch to is really good! The chicken tacos are wonderful. Much better than Taco Bell. Pros: great food, cheap Cons: bathroom outside more
