I discovered it on Google Maps today. It was decorated in cute Valentines’ Day decorations. The food was excellent and our waitress was very nice. Check them out. Oh – and order the Enchiladas Suizas. So good!

We had a cozy dinner together last night on a drizzly Bakersfield night and the inviting decor makes you feel welcome. We were greeted with a smiling employee and were seated at once in a quiet area near the front windows which made our visit seem more pleasant and intimate. We had chips and salsa (red and green). I ordered a margarita rocks, refreshing! Steve had a plate of chorizo and eggs with beans and rice on the side. I ordered enchiladas suizas with shredded beef with rice and beans. We both enjoyed our experience and intend on returning to order different things on their extensive menu in future. The Muzak playing is a great mix of 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. This is a great place for larger groups or the intimate 2 person party.

Was having a rough day. It was Christmas Eve, dad was in the hospital with no ticket home in sight, everything was closed, and I was alone. Sat at the bar, and I don’t think I was there more than a couple minutes before being invited into multiple conversations and treated like a friend. And I didn’t tell anyone why I was there. Good people make life worth living… worth loving.

Always great food and strong drinks. Mexicali is that iconic local brand of Mexican food that is made with the best ingredients. Warm Chips & Salsa welcome you within a minute of seating. A top restaurant to work at because their committed staff have been there for a decade plus. Thank you for the consistently awesome food and drinks with wonderful atmosphere to dine in!

While visiting in Bakersfield me and my sister-in-law enjoyed food and margaritas several times at Mexicali. I haven’t been there since I was a kid. We ordered an enchilada, taco, rice and bean plate. It was pretty darn big and delicious. Just like the margaritas! We were lucky to always get the same waitress. She is wonderful. Until next time!

Been coming here for years and I’ve always had a great meal. It’s always fresh and hot.
The workers are always very nice and give excellent service.
Mexicali makes one of the best margaritas you’ll find anywhere!
Their salsa is mild, I like to mix it into an order of guacamole, it’s really good.
Mexicali has been a staple in Bakersfield for over 65 years, they always do it right.

We stopped for some dinner at Mexicali before a long journey up to Sequoia national park. Enjoyed my margarita and chips while waiting for our to-go order. Had a great conversation with the owner too!! The restaurant was super busy with locals and visitors but everyone felt like family!!
