Lucy's Mexicali Restaurant
Lucy's Mexicali Restaurant Review
"The best margaritas in the world" is the motto of this family-owned Mexican food oasis. All the staples are on the menu, plus some not-so-standard items like chicken fajita burritos and enchiladas served the New Mexico way—that is, flat with an egg on top. Try the Tucson-style chimichangas and tasty carnitas (beef brisket or chicken sauteed with chili peppers). Make sure to ask for an order of Adam's Queso, a cheese dish that's a Lucy's original.
