Purchased the medium option for a group lunch. The price was great for the amount of food I got. I was able to serve about 10-15 people with plenty leftover. Food was great!

A visit to Baja Taqueria is always a high point of any day for me. I’ve tried a number of items on the menu but my favorites are the fish taco and the bean and cheese burrito. I also cherish a stop to the salsa bar to pick up the spicy goodness of a little heat to fire up my entree. There are several areas to eat on site – by the street-view window or at one of several tables inside or outdoors. I have encountered smiles and wonderful service from the staff. Overall whether I eat in or take out my tummy is happier because I stopped here.

It’s pretty bad. Almost $7 for a taco, everything pretty tasteless, textures were off too. The horchata tasted like sugar water. The fish taco was ok. No carnitas. I remember this place being decent pre-pandemic. I’ll walk a couple extra blocks to Doña like everyone else.

Baja is a local Mexican food institution on Piedmont Ave and serves very good a fresh items all made with excellent ingredients and quality choices. If you like lobster, you have to try their signature lobster tacos (two per order). All of their other offerings are very delicious and if you know what you like, just ask…

I used to order from this place all the time, now I move back to this neighborhood, I came in for a burrito too small , never seen a small burrito like this ,, RIP off as well as the taste is no longer good also there is no steak ,,, I ordered steak and prawn…. I can go to the other spots for the same price but a BIGGER burrito

Really disappointed! I ordered their regular nachos and paid $12. The chips were soggy and it didn’t have very much cheese. It’s supposed to have beans and I got a sprinkle of them. I thought maybe there were more beans underneath the jalapeños and their salsa fresca but there was maybe 3 little beans. See the picture for what it looked like right after I opened it. It may look like they gave me a lot but it was literally 1 thin layer of chips. Way overpriced for what they gave me. Go to The Burrito Shop on College instead.

Good portions and what I had hoped for since authentic taquerias aren’t numerous where we live. Flavorful food with ample fresh salsas to go w any meal.

Ron Graves

The best fish tacos in town. The street tacos and Holy Mole wrap are also great. Ownership might want to invest in refreshing the slightly shabby interior as the rotating cast of new places nearby have the edge in atmosphere. I would hate to lose this place.
