Well priced, excellent, friendly service. A lot of food!!!
Food: Good-sized portions for regular burritos when extra meat is added. Came to around $13 and considering portion size not expensive. Downside is that burrito was heavy with all the cheese and yellow cream topping. Ask it to be removed if not your preference.
Atmosphere/Interior: food truck.
Service: Ok
Parking: City. No parking available.
Got the taco salad which tasted pretty good. Efficient service and convenient location. Lots of seating and the upstairs area is nice and sunny.

Mexicali Fresh always do a good burritos, nachos and salad. Tucked on the corner of Wellesley and Hobson St, this place was quiet around lunch time on a Sunday. The staff was friendly and the food they make for us is delicious and has generous fillings. Great that Mexicali does reward programme, you can save points to get discounts for your next purchase.
Wishing that their was one of these in Wellington. Hutt Valley. (hint, hint) :) There was a place in Texas called Taco Cabana, this is very similar to that place. Not fast food, but nice fresh mexican food in a cafe setting, instead of a restaurant. I enjoyed the items I purchased from the menu and was not disappointed, except for the margaritas, but they were from a machine....so no expectations really. The staff at this location were friendly and the service was great!
The food is great. It’s a good place to go with friends when you’re broke on a Tuesday because all tacos are $4 on tuesdays!!!!! Whatta steal
This is a great place! Good food, service, and it’s very accessible. It’s kinda small so be mindful of the volume of diners ‘cause you won’t be able to sit 😂
But overall, I love the place, especially the beef burrito 😋👌🏻

My go to place most weekends when I am working. I love this place. Food is always good and tasty and hot. I usually get mini chicken burrito add the fajita veges. But have also tried the beef barbacoa(another favourite). Have had the nachos from here they are great too. The only thing I don't like so much is the mince option and definitely no beans but that's personal opinion. I will always come back here.
This is an amazing lunch place, and has served as my steady go-to place for a quick healthy lunch for a while... the taco salad is simply superb, and I just get the vegetarian option with beans, guacamole, rice, tomato etc... They have a great upstairs area and overall really fun and convenient. I would be lost without them and so would many other amateur diners in the area!
You can't throw a rock in Manhattan without hitting a Starbucks... Well you can't throw a rock in Auckland CBD without hitting a Mexican / burrito joint these days. My latest burrito experience was at the Mexicali Fresh on Victoria Street.
I can't deny that they had really good service that night. The staff taking the orders were extremely polite and patient while dealing with a customer ahead of me in the line who clearly had issues. After these issues were resolved (temporarily I suppose), I ordered the chargrilled chicken burrito which was tasty and filling.
I did find that Mexicali's burritos are priced a bit higher than the competition ($14+ for the chicken burritos). Also, guacamole costs extra (unless you go for one of the signature range burritos)
Tried Burrito for the first time - better than subway actually! I liked the flavours of it. Everything is either steamed or roasted. So a healthy option as well!

I discovered this place through workmates because they do taco Tuesday. You can't go wrong with taco Tuesday. They have tacos for $3 each every Tuesday and you have an option of vege or mince. I always opt for the mince. You can also choose between soft or crispy tacos. I've tried both and the mince is so much better with the crispy tacos.
The chicken tacos are also great if you're willing to spend more but the $3 tacos are great for a cheap meal. This is a good cheap eats place and our work has a weekly trek to this place for a good cheap meal.
With a busy schedule, I really needed something filling and fast. My friends told me a lot of mexicali fresh and decided to head down straight after work. The atmosphere was funky and created a friendly 'mexican' feel. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted very delightly which was very pleasant. I ordered the macho nacho and my friend the macho burrito. The gentlemen in the counter threw us with a few lines to break the awkwardness and really put smiles on our faces. SUCH great service I must add. Also, let me tell you....IT WAS FILLING. Both of the items were filled with chicken and beef with the macho nacho containing fresh guacamole, salads and salsa. The cornchips were crisp and the burrito wrap soft and chewy. I was extremely pleased with the overall quality of food, service and ambience. The only downside is that although I would pay full price, I know a few people would complain about the pricing. It's a little pricey but worth every cent of it. I heard that there is a grabone deal right now for $10!!! Definately try this place out!!

If you want a quick Mexican meal then this is it. Nothing crazy to rave about but the service was really chill and relaxed and the magaritas were good and affordable.
Wanted something fresh, healthy and yummy, and by the time most of the restaurants are already closed, mexicali was ready to welcome us. Delicious food, fresh, very tasty and you can create your own version.
The place is clean and tidy, and the staff is friendly at all times. Oh, and also there is one that speak spanish in case you are a latino in the island.
Build your own burritos. Very good food and priced well.
Delicious Mexican food. Quick service and friendly staff.
Staff was super friendly and helpful about dietary restrictions. Great vegetarian options available. Good views of the tower from the second floor eating area. Our meal was delicious and well presented.
Always plenty of seating available upstairs (ideally for groups of 4 to 6 or less). Staff have been great as well! It's possible for the queue to lead out the front door. Don't worry, you may still only be the 4th person in line. :)
Not a bad spot! Solid food choices and clean environment, although nothing out of the ordinary. The food itself can sometimes be lacklustre but it certainly adds some much needed variety to the area.
Good service, great food for the price, and cool decor. Upstairs seating area is really good (except in the height of summer when it gets a bit hot).
Love this place! Bbq jackfruit is the best vegetarian option in auckland (besides sunflower cafe of course). Taco Tuesday has great deals !!
Good place to come for a quick lunch that wont break the bank. Really tasty food that is fresh and has healthy options available.
I like having s great burrito once and awhile. They have free range meats and vegetarian substitutions.
It was ok for me. There has a taco salad, it was little et hard to eat but ok! Good for take away
Great food but I found it somewhat pricey in comparison to the amount I got.
Some of the best burritos in Auckland. The place doesn't have many seats so it's better to take away.
Great ambience upstairs. Spacious.
Easy to throw a great party.
Good loyalty programme as well.
Really friendly service and nice people , delicious and healthy food thanks a lot :)
