Mexicali Cocina Cantina

All the food is excellent. Fab cocktails . Can get really busy during peak times so best to get here early. Nothing wrong with midday margaritas :)

Best happy hour . Mini chicken burritos , queso fundido , lobster quesadilla , blue crab enchiladas , blue crab quesadilla , cheese enchiladas , green rice and black beans , quacamole and Strawberry margarita

Love this place. The staff is great and the margaritas are freshly prepared with top notch components. The cuisine of Mexican and Californian influences are perfectly paired with my Margatini . Cheers

Just order a pitcher of the Skinny Girl margs and thank me later. All the food is authentic and delicious. Ambiance is perfect, right in the heart of Studio City's main drag.

A staple in the Stu for good reason: consistently good food and tasty drinks by super friendly bartenders .

Had the lobster tacos and Lisa Baertlein had the fish tacos -- both AWESOME. Super cheap prices on Happy hour drinks made the whole thing affordable as well . Read more

The Mexicali Dos is perfect if you can't decide what to get! The Pomegranate Margarita is delicious and the Cadillac Margarita is really strong!

The Margatini is a ridiculous drink. Ask for some olives on the side and pretend you're in Austin, drinking a Mexican martini .

The Rotisserie Chicken is the bomb! The Tacos and Enchiladas were yummy.

I've been here a couple of times. They have a very interesting variety and fusion of foods. My friends liked the Margaritas . Non-Drinker-Me .

Fish dish dodgy today. Would stick to reg Mexican food . Awesome amb and service. Would still recommend. Drinks are great and fabulous Salsa and chips .

Try the octopus tacos . Not on the menu . You have to ask. It's worth it. Best in LA

Blah crab and shrimp burrito kicks ass. Green Rice is a must

Great happy hour . Grab a mini quesadilla and the sangria .

Superior selection of Tequilas and Mescal .

Bring earplugs. The acoustics make it sound like a Deep Purple concert no matter how busy the place is!

Try a skinny margarita ! And seabass wrapped in banana leaves ... Not an ordinary place! Great people watching while sitting on the patio as well !

Everything is great here and most of the male waiters are ridiculously hot. If only they were gay.... :-/

I've made a believer out of everyone I've brought here in the crab and shrimp burrito ????

Alternative to chips Guacamole !

Best "skinny " margarita = Jessica Simpson margarita . Try it!

Try the Margatini . Its their signature drink and its excellent.

The guacamole is soooo good here!!

Great happy hour specials ! 2 tacos for 4 bucks!

You seriously can't beat Mexicali's Happy Hour . The tacos are a must.

Try the 3 cheese infused turkey burger ! Yumm

Not at all Mexican, but that does not mean the quality is poor...it's great! Grab the kobe beef tacos and a margatini !

All of the servers and hosts are men, and very good looking men at that. Ladies, enjoy yourselves.

Margarita Mondays! Food is half off and there are deep discounts on Margaritas . -Alex Eusebio, Top Chef

Get the Grilled Artichoke at Mexicali! Great food, lots of specials. Also the Shrimp and Crab salad is awesome.

Wifi is secured, but just aak your server for the password: they're happy to give it!

Such fun with friends-- especially margaritas at lunch and then breaking the bank at Lucky Brand next door-- yikes!

Mon = 30% off food and they have a daily HH ON THE PATIO from 4-7pm and 11pm-1am.

Make sure to order a shot of tequila to dump in your weak excuse for a margarita .

Extensive tequila menu. Be sure to "call" your tequila preference when you order a margarita .

I Love their tacos

Great drinks and great food!!! I love this place!!

Well the location,is to seen and be seen

The margarita just tasted like lime water, the rice was certainly not spanish rice , the salsa that came out with the chips may as well have been tomato paste, no flavor or spice.

I’ve given this place two chances and it legitimately sucks.

No reason to eat here-- even El Torito serves better food. Apparently the restaurant is having an identity crisis as to whom they wish to cater to. Save your money and eat next door at Umami or Chipot

Watermelon Margaritas when they are in season!

share... portions are HUGE.... stay skinny :)
