Calexico Franchise Overview

About Calexico

Calexico has been operating food carts and restaurants in New York City since 2006. Founded by three brothers from the border town of Calexico, California (California + Mexico = Calexico), Calexico serves fresh food that combines the flavors of Mexico with elements of Southern Barbecue. Everything is made from scratch daily, and always with the focus on freshness that is a hallmark of Californian cuisine. Despite the rapid growth, Calexico’s mission remains simple: to serve delicious, exciting food at a reasonable price. Calexico’s formats have grown from street carts to now include a fast casual restaurant as well as a full service restaurant with a patio and full bar. In 2012 Calexico’s full serve restaurant was named Best Mexican in NYC by Zagat. Calexico was recruited in 2012 to be one of the select vendors inside of the state-of-the-art Barclays Center, which, in addition to its premier facilities, wanted to provide guests with top-of-the-line food vendors.
