Guide Review
Great Mexican food is scarce in New York. Big chains sell overpriced, mediocre food. Calexico offered a delicious alternative to this disappointment when they started selling tacos and burritos out of a truck in Soho several years ago. Then they opened a branch in Red Hook, and now finally, Calexico has come to North Brooklyn.
This new joint boasts a bar and, brace yourself, take out and delivery. Or, you can dine in the new location that has more space. Choose from tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas, or salads. Whatever you order, be sure to get a side of Calexico's famous Crack Sauce. Yes, that is its official name. Sit back and relax, you've found an affordable, stress-free place to nosh on delicious tacos in New York City. Finally!
