MexiCali is the proverbial apple in the Garden of Eden...you want it, but you know there are dire consequences for having it. For having "Cali" in its name, it's rather disappointing (because California has some dope ass Mexican food).What I Ordered: Cheese Quesadilla. Nothing special. Literally tortilla and some shredded cheese. Extremely overpriced for what it is.Verdict: The food is okay at best. The only reason I gave it three stars is because my roommate, ironically from L.A., claims they serve a pretty good burrito. Haven't tried, and I don't want to try. He might be delusional. Or hasn't tried the slice of heaven known as El Taurino/King Taco. Also, their service is a joke. The lady manning the cash register looked at me with disgust when I asked for some corn salsa on the side. Also, they have one cook. Orders get backlogged. Food takes foreverrrrrr to come out. So if you're feeling Mexican food while in Philadelphia, you'll be much more satisfied with Don Memo's Food Cart, or even (dare I say) Chipotle/Qdoba. I'd recommend to try it just to try it, but leave it at that. No gastronomic love affair stems from this place.
