20 years in business and the staff and meals still brim over with enthusiasm!
Authentic black bean soup, dynamite salsa with addictive home-made chips then into the main courses: my favorite is their pork dishes-- the staff will accommodate "off the menu". Authentic Mexican sodas available! Great fun that always me with a good taste in my mouth.

If you love mexican dishes like I do Mexicali Rose won't disappoint. What a great family restaurant. This is the original location of the chain. The interior is cozy, mexican unabridged and fun. After 18 years in business they keep the menu basic with Mexican favorites. Much of the fare is fresh and made onsite.

Even if you're not a vegetarian, that vegetarian burrito is amazing. The owner is super friendly, and did I mention how delicious the food is?

I consider myself a bit of a Mexican cuisine connoisseur and believe me this is it! Having traveled much of the Northeast and Mexico itself, I have never ran into better Mexican food, and with little to no grease! You won't find that in the Yucatan!

I have been coming to Mexicali Rose for years. I travel from Fairfield, not far, to this restaurant, and I can't say enough excellence about the food, the service, the friendliness of the staff, and ...is there anything else?
I just wish they had one closer to the Fairfield County shore, but I guess that the more restaurants, even the small ones, open for business, the more they lose that flair.
If you want a great Mexican restaurant, this is nothing short of A+ rating. Is there a rating that is higher (or greater than 5 stars)?

For eclectic delicious Mexican there is only one place in the area - Mexicali Rose. While I may agree that the menu can be uneven at times, there are some amazing items worth the trip. Any of their soups are outstanding, especially the Carrot Chipotle and Tomato Basil. Their Vegetarian Burrito is a wonderful unique take - stuffed with lots of beans, lettuce, feta cheese and the key ingredient pumpkin seeds - it is delicious. They make their own chips and salsa and sell it by the bag and container - great if you are having a party and want to serve something authentic and fresh. Their mole sauce is delicious as well. I think they import the chocolate from Mexico. The service is always delightful. Minerva and her family are terrific, if a little harried at busier times. This restaurant is not a chain. If you want to support local merchants, want authentic food and a reasonably priced delicious meal check out Mexicali Rose.

Authentic food. Little hole-in-the-wall place but friendly owner and nice menu. Better tasting than El Coyote.
No frills, just good food.
