LOL I don't know why I keep giving this place my business. Maybe it's because of the lack of restaurants in the area? This is the closest to "ethnic food " we have in Oxford?! Either way.... they find new and improved ways to disappoint our delivery service. Quite a few times I have found hair in my food. That should have been it- especially since they promised to send us a gift card, even though they never did. This particular time? They sent us a JOKE of a meal consisting only of a sad, lonely piece of a fish triangle in a lonely, floppy corn tortilla. No cabbage. No condiments. Just a SAD piece of "Baja" fish for $17. The one star is because I couldn't vote zero. And if I had to give ONE redeeming factor, it would be their delicious guacamole. I'll give them that. Wish these were more options in our town! Luckily- the delivery services are starting to offer more read more

I've been to Mexicali 4 times so far. The good news: ambiance is great, staff is always attentive, seating/dining area always clean, restrooms clean. Ceviche tastes fresh, guacamole is fresh, salsa is pretty good (I like a watery salsa), chips pretty good, mixed drinks (Paloma and margaritas) are good enough, chicken tortilla soup is filling. None of this is so good that I would recommend driving 15 minutes + out of your way for, but decent enough. The downside: most of the food is lackluster. Tamales: dry (thank God for the watery salsa); rice and beans: dry, with beans slightly on the flavorless and burnt side; the burritos: vegetables are fresh, but meat always tastes dry (chicken) or slightly flavorless (beef), (thankfully most burritos served with a cheese sauce as well, but the lettuce and tomatoes that are served with it are always cheap and flavorless); enchiladas: one-note, the salty sauce and cheese covers up other flavors ( if there even are any); tacos: forgettable and one-note in flavor (needed guacamole, salsa and hot sauce to provide any depth of flavor); street corn: a complete joke, and covered with a mayonnaise-like condiment containing Sazon. For entertainment, order the street corn! Ask them to split it in two so that it can be for two people. Depending on who the chef or waitress is this could turn into an interesting conversation (about whether corn can be split in two vertically, seriously- the waitress left our table and returned asking if we meant split a cob of corn vertically or horizontally). She then stared in wonderment at us when i said "we just want 2 portions"; i felt like i was making an Abott and Costello bit, when she replied "sooooo, two orders split in half or what do you mean?". I mean one ear of corn cut in half so one person can have one half and another person can have one half. She nodded in amazement, saying that it would be really hard to cut an ear of corn in half but maybe if the chef has a good knife, maybe this amazing half corn could happen. Then it arrives, yes split horizontally in two, she looked very proud. Now, what's supposed to make street corn street corn is that it's grilled and seasoned, then covered in a Mexican crema and cotija cheese topping with lime and onions. Mexicali boils their corn in unsalted water, doesn't usually cut it in half or season it afterwards, leaves the corn probably for the whole shift so that each of the kernels gets really shriveled and dry like an old raisin, then coats it with mayonnaise and sprinkles Sazon on it. It's an entertaining experience, if nothing else. Definitely have an adult beverage- at least those will have flavor and hopefully make the whole experience fun/worthwhile! read more

Food: The tortilla chips was fine, but salsa is on the watery side but it tastes fine. You get 3 tacos with any of the choices and you can add the topping as you go. I got the Mexico City tacos which had tender steak with sweetness of the mango and sauce. I wish the rice and beans were separate as the rice became soggy sitting with the beans and I think the beans were a little bit burnt. Service: Server was nice and attentive. I asked the host to direct me to meet with my friend that had a table and they just pointed to the back so I just walked there myself. Not a big deal as I found it anyways Ambiance: decorative but rather loud music? Not sure if they can turn it down alittle lower Location accommodation: has a lot of parking as it's in a plaza, wide space to walk. Has a bar in the center read more

Went to Mexicali last night, 11/15/24. The food was excellent! Our server was very attentive and the employees and manager said hello and greeted us with smiles. I do wish there was a seperate room for groups. The group of women last night were so loud that you could hear their conversation. My husband I had to repeat ourselves to talk to each other. The more the alcohol was served, the louder the group of women got. This is the only time this has happened so far, but this problem should be brought to attention of the manager. read more

Great Latin food! Place was clean. Service was great! I had the chicken mole. Mole sauce was PERFECT! PRICES WERE REASONABLE hot waiters as well! Missive was a bit loud, but all in all was a great place! We will definitely be coming back to this place again. Great experience! read more

I ordered from the Mexicali Cantina Grill "Tres Amigos"Charbroiled skirt steak with marinated grilled chicken breast and shrimp sautéer with mushrooms, onions and peppers. Served with guacamole, rice and beans. The food was excellent and all of the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The atmosphere was lively and inviting and the prices were very reasonable. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Mexican dining experience read more

Right out of the gate, I'm a fan! A huge fan actually! First few experiences were takeout. Everything was Uber fresh and basically just deconstructed for you to make your own magic. Then I dined in and everything changed. The level of attentiveness and friendliness of the staff makes you feel like you are in straight VIP seating. Over the top! Incredible! The food is phenomenal. I've had Mexican from Colorado, to Arizona, to Juarez. This place is not far off! Authentic and delicioso! Highest recommendation, especially dine in! read more

It's been years since I went here but I remember that it was a good time. It was lunchtime and my meal was delicious.

Mexicali is one of my favorite restaurants. This is the first time at the Webster location. I usually eat at the Westborough restaurant. Fortunately the Webster Mexicali location was open with indoor and outdoor seating. Eating out during the pandemic is not as fun, but the food was tasty. We had a mid-afternoon lunch and started with a jalapeño margarita and a Grande margarita. For lunch we ordered a Street Burrito with carnitas, a combo plate with a chicken enchilada and mole sauce , pork tamale and beef burrito. Everything was delicious, especially the mole sauce. Mexicali definitely enforced limited seating with about 8 tables occupied inside the restaurant. The wait staff was a bit slow, but overall enjoyed our lunch. read more

Any there during the week to meet other family members for a lunch. Walked in and was seated in the back room. There was tables put together for a party of 20+, and they were finishing taking orders. I figured: "ok, so it's going to be a long time till we get our food. Surprised that 15 minutes our order came to the table, correct and hot. Nice to now that they handled everything perfectly! read more

The decor was authentic, the menu offered several Mexican options. Our meal was delicious! I'll definitely go again!

The food is good but maybe overpriced. Still worth it every now and then as a casual date great place for that. The staff is usually very friendly and attentive with food and drinks. Makes it easy to get a second Shirley temple:) read more

Very unpleasant waitress, completely uninterested in customers. Extremely long waiting time for main course, dessert and payment of the receipt. Nice restaurant (WEBSTER, MA), that reputation is ruining by incompetent staff. read more

We went for a family dinner, the food, drinks, music and the atmosphere of the place and we were delighted.

My neighbor told me about this restaurant. Weather permitting, outdoor dining. Food is excellent. If you can't handle spicy, ASK. A variety of Mexican foods, freshly cooked. Staff is amazing, helpful. A bit pricey read more

Not satisfied. I came here with my friends and the bartender cut us off after 1 or 2 drinks. We were not drunk or causing a scene. I just wanted a fun night with my friend to celebrate a birthday and am disappointed :( read more

Average food (at best) ... but what can one expect from a town like Webster where rolling up the windows and locking the doors before driving through town are mandatory? I probably wouldn't eat here again based on the food I had. (the Tamales Mole' seriously tasted like drywall with joint compound on top). Tacos and Fajitas were so-so. The cuts of meat were kind of tough. This is good 'drunk' food ... so if you are looking for a place to have 3 or 4 Margaritas and then eat ... from a social standpoint, it's alright. We were surprised how nice the décor was inside. It looks a LOT classier and bigger than it does on the outside. The 3 stars are for the décor alone. However, I will say that it was freezing cold INSIDE the restaurant (January). They could stand to turn on the heat. We ate with jackets on and most of us had cold noses during the meal, which made things a bit uncomfortable. Warmth is crucial inside a restaurant in winter time. If you are fan of places like Chili's, Olive Garden and TGIFriday's ... the food here will probably be to your liking. If you are someone who likes more of a freshly prepared food ... this might not be for you. I guess it's more of a social spot than a foodie spot. Seems like groups of young people (20-somethings) love this place. Still ... for Webster, this place is a step up from what else is around. At least it's clean and safe. read more

Friendly staff and great good. The mar y teira is very good as well as the carnitas and carne asada tacos. The blackjack margarita is also very good read more

This was our first visit. We started off with an appetizer of Chilichanga, not having had it before, but it sounded interesting. It was a good choice. Very delicious with the chicken in it. I ordered a Taco Salad and my wife ordered soup with chicken after asking the waitress whether it was spicy. She said it was not. Well, it was. My wife said the avocado was the best part. The Taco Salad was bland. All I could taste was the lettuce. I had to resort to using some of the salsa to give it some flavor. Very disappointing. I doubt we'll be back. read more

Really glad this little gem has stayed open during the pandemic. I did a take out order today, and it was very good. I had an order of loaded beef nachos, an order of beef fajitas and churro for dessert. Nice big portions, lots of sour cream, guacamole and salsa, all homemade. The steak for the fajitas was very tasty and tender, with plenty of grilled veggies to add in. All nicely packaged for keeping hot till I got home. Love this place. Food is very tasty and not loaded with heat, just enough to be flavorful. read more

I've ordered the pork Chile verde here and the portion is so small with little rice compared to the Mexicali on shrewsbury street, which gave me chips and salsa, tortilla and big portion, the Webster Mexicali is a disappointment and bad service very slow read more

Fast and friendly service, nice and clean place. All the staff was nice and happy. Literally about 10 minutes for our enchiladas I was actually in shock. Nice calm atmosphere, not crazy overdone. All the food was absolutely excellent, the chicken enchiladas are perfect! Also, hands down the best flan I have ever had in my entire life. read more

The food is usually decent and always comes out quick. We came here for dinner on a Friday and we're seared pretty quickly as well as chips and salsa being delivered to the table. The salsa and chips are great and we recommend the guac. Our only issue was the service, besides the initial drink the waitress brought she never offered a refill and we went most of the dinner without drinks. We were planning on ordering margaritas as well but due to the waitress never stopping by we never had a chance to put that order in before finishing dinner. We planned on getting the deep fried cheesecake as it is pretty good but this time we passed as we were waiting for 20+ minutes without anyone stopping by and we didn't want to be there for much longer. Tl;dr - food is pretty good, but service is lacking at times read more

I sent this via private email, but haven't received a response... Hello David Brambila, Thank you to you and your staff for a tasty meal last night at Mexicali, Natick. HOWEVER, when I presented my debit card to Kristine (?) at the bar to pay for our dinner, she could not return it to me because she could not find it. I was the director of operations for a major food truck for years and understand that while people make mistakes, sometimes recompense is necessary. I also appreciated it when a patron contacted me directly vs. airing his/her grievance via social media. I paid full price for my meal and tipped generously. I was able to do this because I memorized my debit card number and was able to provide it to the manager. I stopped by Wellesley Bank this morning to report the incident. They recommended that I cancel the card due to the unusual circumstances. This is very inconvenient for me because I pay online for all of my expenses including life insurance via Penn Mutual, car insurance, medical insurance, AT&T, two missionary support payments, IRS and MassDOR monthly installments, and many more. I now must wait for my new debit card to arrive and have several auto-payments due this week , so risk penalties and cancellations on accounts - I am very troubled and anxious about this circumstance. Why did your staff not at least request my phone number in the event that they recovered the card or that a patron may have returned it? While the staff was friendly, (except I had to request Kristine's attention twice because she was talking with a gentleman waiter at the other end of the bar), and the food was good, I expected the customer service to be as good...thoughts? Terri read more

The atmosphere was definitely Mexican. The steak fajita were very well done and delicious. The waitress was on point. Was not over the top with their salsa but that is my issue lol it was fresh. We will definitely be back to visit when in the Webster area. read more

I don't know if this place is under new management or what, but it is no longer a place of choice for me at this point. The restaurant has gone down hill over the past 5 years that I've gone. The food is all microwaved and shows little to no pride or effort. The tables are all scraped up, no coverings on the back of many seats, seats themselves are torn and the bar typically has gnats flying around. This all has NOTHING to do with COVID-19, this particular location has been going poorly beforehand. Aside from some of the waitstaff/bartenders, Rachel being my favorite and who keeps me coming back (I only order drinks now, no food, because that stuff is just ) even though I find the restaurant itself to be in less than stellar condition and poorly run. The owner really needs to step up his game and put more money and effort into the place. /shrug read more

So it's a low budget Mexican restaurant like a 100 others in the area. Food is fine but nothing special. The problem is just outrageously bad customer service. I bought a Groupon and used it on my last visit, paid for the meal, then realized they never applied my Groupon. Instead of doing the right thing and handing me $20 back the manager said that all he could do is give me a hand written and signed coupon for my next visit. Insane but I took it and left. Then today I go back and use my hand written and signed $20 coupon and the manager,who himself had created and signed it, did everything he could to refuse to accept it. Just amazingly outrageous! I'm in there fighting with him for 15 minutes just to honor the credit the he personally signed and guaranteed. He just wanted to rob me of $20, and that Groupon cost $12. So he's being as terrible as you possibly can be to a customer over what's essentially an $8 discount. Remember this was there screw up from the beginning. He finally begrudgingly agrees to honor his self signed coupon and I leave. What a pathetic operation. Will never return. read more

Takeout orders are a complete mess. Every time I picK up, the orders are very wrong. Missing protein from burrito bowls, wrong rice, missing rice, missing sides. I called and asked to speak to a manager, manager didn't want to address and said he would call me back. No call back to date. Very disappointed. You need to hire more efficient front end staff that can properly take orders and check orders for accuracy. Tonight we sat there for 15 mins waiting for our takeout which she said wasn't ready and it was sitting there the entire time. Once we got it, it of course was wrong. read more

Solid food. Only place I've found tamales with tomatillo sauce, even if generic. Chips and salsa are great. Ordered a pitcher of the Rosarita margarita, too easy to drink. Very good. Now for the bad... service isn't great. The food may come out quickly but once it's on the table you don't see the server again. We waited forever for our check - mostly because she was no where to be seen, no way to flag her down. Too bad because she was quite pleasant. Other staff members weren't as professional around customers...chatting and acting like giddy teenagers within ear shot/view of our table. Made me feel like we were intruding on their personal time and not like they were at work (getting paid to represent an establishment). read more
