Description

Specialties

Authentic Tex Mex Cantina with a Rocky Point feel. Great for all ages and major events located in Westgate Entertainment District just walking distance away from catching the Coyotes, Cardinals or a concert. After the event we get wild, turning down the lights and turning the music up. It is also the best place to be on the Westside for weekend night out. Come and celebrate your victory with us we would love to have you.

I am not sure why this place does not have better reviews. I came here before and after the USA vs Colombia Copa America game. It was awesome! They had great music and lots of dancing. It made me miss Miami since I finally found a place that has good Latin music. Prices for drink and food were not bad. The service was very nice and fast. I will be back.

We had a situation with one of the security guards, don’t know his name but he is African American. Laid his hands on an individual without probable cause. Very unprofessional and apparently 2 other individuals had a similar altercation with the same guard moments before. The bartenders work at a slow pace, cursed at us for asking then to attend us and do not do much to enhance the experience. If you are visiting Glendale like I did I would recommend seeking other options.

This place needs a complete make over as I have said in the past, it’s no wonder on car show or bike night this place is empty. ‚. The following seats all over are terrible, food not much better., Understand they have the same owners as FC Fadden’s which is just as bad, stay away

We went on a non home game day and Westgate was slow. The restaurant has a Mexican flare tables and chairs in dining area with s large bar area with hightops. We ordered strawberry margaritas, they were generous in pour and size. They were topped with whipped cream. Chips and salsa were warm and fresh, they even have refills. For meals we both ordered fajitas. They offered to do a split of the 4 types of meats, however we went with the chicken. They were served with fresh warm tortillas, pico de gallo, cheese, sour cream, the usual. The chicken was tender sizzling on a bed of grilled onions and peppers. They were well seasoned to perfection. Plenty of leftovers. While we were there the Cardinal walk in dancing and having fun. Surprising to see a cardinal seeing they were playing in Detroit. Ramon the cardinal was a fun bonus especially for my 78 yr old mother, he was a kind young man who just wants to make people smile. Nothing wrong with that, we need more folks like Ramon. Give Calicos a true, just not on home game day based on others reviews. We had a nice meal. We will gladly return.

The place was empty and that should have been a sign. The server was sweet but the food was terrible. The table was dirty and the menu was expensive. We will not go back.

Most disappointing experience ever! Wish I had taken the time to read reviews before choosing this place. in a nut shell we didn’t even get to eat and were mistreated by the manager for no reason.
My girlfriends and I made a quick stop on a Thursday night. They had a bit of a wait before we could get a table but we understood and went to the bar in the meantime. Took at least 15 minutes for a bar tender to acknowledge us and get us a drink, nothing special about the drinks. We finally got a table and our waiter NEVER showed up. I asked to hostess twice about it and yet no one came to take our order. Finally I asked to speak with the Manager, who very rudely and aggressively brought water and menu’s to our table interrupting us and rushing through what he was saying. I am very disappointed at the service and at his attitude, as someone who has worked rush hour in the restaurant business before I can tell you that nothing is ever an excuse to mistreat your costumers. Know that I tell anyone and everyone about the horrible experience I had and to never even consider coming to this establishment.

Not very good Mexican food. Service was extremely slow. It looked like only one person working today.

I don’t know what most people are expecting, but I consider this one of the better dive bars around. It looks like a place built and furnished with the expectation that there would be bar fights between biker gangs. And that’s ok, unless you’re hoping for the typical mariachi-band type of Mexican themed place. Calico Jacks is more like the place you’d find at the end of a pier, not inside of a Ritz Carlton.
Could the place be cleaner? Sure.
Could someone wipe off the menus every few weeks? That’d be great.
Could the food be more «authentic»? Of course.
Should they serve margaritas in glasses instead of cheap plastic? Absolutely.
But that’s not why I end up at CJ’s. I usually end up here because I’m looking for some decent food and drinks either before or after a hockey game, and don’t feel like waiting an hour to be seated at one of the other places at Westgate. So I make my way back to CJ’s.
The bartenders I’ve had have been very friendly and quick. The waitresses are hit or miss, just like every other lower-to-middle end bar/restaurant on the planet. The food isn’t «to die for,» but it isn’t bad either. The drinks aren’t absurdly expensive.
Again, if you’re looking for truly authentic Mexican food, skip it. If you’re looking for decent food and drinks at reasonable prices because you’re hungry before a game, then by all means give CJ’s a shot.

Food was very flavorless. It had heat spice but no flavor. I had the grilled chicken tacos. My son’s had the steak burritos with the same results, flavorless. And the portions are rather small for the prices.

Reviews not fair for this place. From SoCal and I eat Mexican food 3 – 4 times a week. Food good. Drinks good. Service perfect. Don’t be haters! I’ll come back next time I’m here.

For some reason this is the only place I can get a seat during the sporting events. It’s a basic bar food place with the usual sporting event markup. I have been here when the whole place filled up with smoke from the kitchen, which made it hard to see the small TVs they have placed around the bar. The chicken wings are usually a safe bet.

Ugh. Where do I start?
We came here before the Coyotes game looking to grab a few drinks and food. New to town and not familiar with the area, we picked this place as I noticed there was a 20% off voucher on the Unilocal app and the place wasn’t too busy.
Should’ve. Read. The. Reviews.
Terrible food. Below par would be putting it lightly. Dirty tables (they were super sticky!) Decent service but that can only go so far.
My saving grace and only justifiable reason for picking such a terrible place was going to be for the 20% off coupon but when I tried to use it, the waitress said its not redeemable on game days.
What a letdown! DONT go here.

I always get
certificates to go here, and I don’t mind the food, but the issue with it is that they go to the extreme when considering the average American’s tastes. They don’t take any risks by putting any real Mexican flair into the food, so it all ends up rather bland by comparison.
The upside is that little kids will eat it, because it’s not spicy at all. If you know people who usually won’t eat Mexican food because they complain it’s all too spicy or gives them heartburn or whatever, take them here, because this will be right up their alley. It’s like if someone who is used to cooking traditional English food tried to cook their first Mexican meal. Even the poblano cream sauce, which sounds like it would have some «oomph,» had no real zip to it.
Service is always great and friendly. So don’t take the 2 stars as a discouragement, because there is definitely a market for the type of food they serve, and of course they have big TVs for sports and lots of booze, so there’s always that… and any of the «Mexican» food they serve would be fine as a bar appetizer.

Menus are dirty, covered in food, eww. Bathrooms are dirty! Carne asada taco plate was tiny. Very small menu. The music choices were odd. Disco to old school rap. Back to back. Don’t waste your time. Go somewhere else!

1 star for basically the worst Mexican food I’ve ever had. 3 stars for a super cute and friendly waitress and decent margarita. Pretty disappointed the one time I don’t check Unilocal before dining somewhere happened to be with my boyfriends parents.
The chips that came with the chips and salsa were warm but killed with way too much salt. My bfs mom and I both ordered the chicken burrito. It came out with no sauce, cheese, Guac or sour cream on top. It was basically Luke warm chunks of chicken with chopped ice burg lettuce and what I think was ranch inside of an old tortilla.
None of the employees (except for our waitress) seems to be interested in smiling and our encounter with the hostesses was very awkward as well. I would definitely avoid this place at all costs. Even with the discount on food offered here. Not worth it.

This place has the most horrible management I have ever experienced. The drinks are horrendously watered down. The chimichangas I ordered where raw in the center and where so disgusting that I threw up in my mouth. I am so disappointed about this establishment. If could put a negative five stars I would without a blink.
This place is horrible.

The place was empty on a lazy Saturday afternoon. The food was good. Ordered a Jack’s Famous burger. It was simply a burger. No seasoning or flavor of any kind. Potato wedges were decent. The food came out hot. Enjoyed two brews.
Overall not a bad experience.

First time visiting this location at Westgate. Showed up on a Saturday before it got too busy so we were able to chill for awhile and enjoy the music and atmosphere. Around 10 or so they started clearing the tables from the floor. The DJ was playing pretty good music and had the dance floor pretty full.
It was a cool spot to chill with some friends while visiting for a weekend.
