About El Mexicali Cafe

El Mexicali Cafe is an old Mexican food restaurant with a warm atmosphere and a great selection of dishes that everyone enjoyed. The food is good, with authentic Mexican options like the Chiles Guero's appetizer. The service is family-friendly, and the outdoor dining space offers a unique experience near the railroad tracks, where the trains rumble by and add to the charm. The beans and rice are top-notch, and the shredded beef tacos are excellent. The tortillas are fresh, and the Machacca is fantastic. The restaurant also serves great margaritas and has a friendly, inviting atmosphere that appeals to locals and visitors alike. Some dishes like the Red Burritos could use more filling, but overall, El Mexicali Cafe provides a casual and authentic dining experience suitable for families and groups. The mix drinks are a bit pricey but worth it, making it a great choice for a fun and relaxed meal.

We visited after spending the day at Joshua Tree National Park. The food selection was remarkable. We sampled many items. Everything was delicious and creative. The staff is kind, patient explaining the dishes we ate and welcoming. Overall a five star place from 2 people traveling from Missouri. Thank you a fantastic dinner experience!
