Calexico Detroit

Calexico is a real place nestled between California and Mexico. As the name suggests, everything about Calexico is a hybrid: the people, the culture, and especially the food. When we moved to New York City, we were blown away by the variety and quality of the food, but no matter where we looked, we couldn’t find anything that could satisfy our craving for our hometown cuisine. So we began cooking - first for ourselves, then for friends, and thus Calexico -- the restaurant -- was founded.

Our business has grown, but what we do hasn’t changed one bit. We still wake up every day and make the kind of food we like to eat: fresh, flavorful, satisfying. People seem to like it. Hopefully you will too. We’re looking forward to serving you at our newest location in Detroit, now open for business!
