About the Business

Calexico started as a street cart in 2006, and has been serving award-winning Cal-Mex cuisine to New Yorkers ever since.

Founded by 3 brothers from the border town of Calexico, California (California + Mexico = Calexico), Calexico's Union Street outpost serves elevated West Coast-style Mexican food and drink in a cozy space in the heart of the Columbia Street Waterfront neighborhood of Brooklyn (with delivery to Carroll Gardens and Red Hook). The vibe is fun and relaxed, with an eclectic soundtrack that leans toward 60's garage rock, vintage punk, and old-school hip hop.

Established in 2006.

Business Owner

David V. (Business Owner)

My brothers and I always dreamed of owning a restaurant, and that dream came true when we opened this little spot on Union Street. We've opened other restaurants since, but there will always be a special place in hearts for the original.
