Tequilas, Tacos, RocknRoll
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
Craveable food and craveable experiences
