Editorial Review for Mexicali Cocina Cantina – by CItysearch Editors
In Short
Dark wood, dim lighting and tables shoved close together make this cantina feel quite cozy. In the loud, crowded bar, 30-somethings sip margaritas. In the dining room, they nosh on a seafood-heavy menu of Cal-Mex cuisine. Popular dishes include the seared ahi tuna, seviche, as well as more traditional favorites like shrimp quesadillas and steak burritos.

I ate at Mexicali on Thursday night and I made the mistake of paying with my debit card. The next day my debit card number had been stolen and used at a Kroger in Ohio. Beware if you eat here. Don't pay with a debit card!
Pros: They are open late
Cons: They will steal your debit card number

i absolutely love mexicali. it is my go-to spot. no matter what night you're craving a cocktail, even a lonely tuesday, there are other people at the bar. the energy is great and the staff is CUTE! the food isn't the best, but after one of their double margaritas ANYTHING tastes good! :)
