Baja Cafe - Such an authentic Mexican place the food is great - Tacos Near Me - Deerfield Beach, Florida

We came here after a boat day, starving and thirsty! Our waitress was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu.. we sat outside and had our dog with us.. the margaritas were BOGO.. alcohol wasn't noticeable so they were ok. The tacos were the best part- very yummy if you're looking for Mexican in the area! read more

I came in for lunch after exploring nearby Deerfield Beach Island. Someone at my summer job mentioned this place to me for Mexican food and all of his recommendations were good so I have been meaning to get her ever since. There is outside seating but I opted for the AC inside. I loved the sign on the door letting me know that they value the ocean and will only give straws upon request. I see kids throwing away tons of plastic in the school cafeteria every day and it bothers me so I really appreciate their commitment to the environment. The restaurant is really cute on the inside with painted walls and Mexican art hanging. I loved the Frida Kahlo picture. As soon as I sat down I was given a mild and medium salsa and chips. The salsa wasn't my favorite. It was extremely watery and lacking in flavor and the chips were stale. For lunch I had a chicken chimichanga and that was amazing. It came out pipping hot, filled with a large amount of white meat chicken, and smothered in cheese. I didn't want beans so they kindly replaced them with extra rice. I also ordered a strawberry margarita. I didn't know they were two for one and so on their recommendation I had the mango margarita for my second one. That was a lot of margarita but at least it was Saturday afternoon. Two drinks and lunch was $20, you can't beat that. The staff here is so incredibly nice and friendly and the food is good and inexpensive. I loved my visit and will be back the next time I am in the area. read more

Baja Cafe - Game night baja - Tacos Near Me - Deerfield Beach, Florida

The food was very good. Very fresh tasting. We had the guacamole salad with shrimp. We were very happy to see that we didn't have to wrangle with the shrimp to get the tails off! The guacamole and salsa were very tasty and fresh! Ice cold frosted mugs came with the bottled beer! Edgar, our server, was amazing, very attentive but not over-baring. Probably the best server we have had in the last 6 or 7 years and we eat out often. The ambience is fun, relaxing and authenticly Mexican. We will be back! read more

Super casual and always a solid meal! Super nice staff and the best frozen margaritas!!! The spinach shrimp enchilada are my favorite. Service is quick and they keep the chips coming. Fun vibe inside!!!! read more

First of all when you come in, they are very friendly and seat you right away. Did not have to wait more than a few minutes and a waiter came over and asked if we would like to order drinks and as he wants to get him, he came back with two bowls of salsa one extra hot and delicious nachos. No charge! I had cheese empanadas that were out of this world and enough for me to take some home. By the way, my strawberry frozen margarita was outrageous. Ambience they've tried and I guess it is Mexican like. Definitely if you like Mexican food, I think this is the best. read more

I have been to Baja many times. This last visit was disappointing. We went (2 people) in for cocktails and appetizers. The margarita was fair - mostly fruit mix with no taste of alcohol. We ordered the nachos and it was unappealing looking and quite small for the price. Taste was fair at best. When I got the bill there was a sharing charge added to the bill. I could see if we shared a meal but for an appetizer ??? read more

This place is a super cool little dive in Deerfield with a neat atmosphere we enjoyed. It's not truly authentic Mexican food but the burritos we had were very enjoyable. We had excellent service and our salsa was heavily replenished (which is key!). This is a great place for taco Tuesday and we noticed this one day which fueled our interest in trying. If you're looking for a filling experience for cheap, definitely try this place! read more

The worse 'mexican food', i had ever tasted. I should say, it might as well call fusion Mexican food. If you want, actual Mexican food stay away from this place. Taco bell tasted more authentic than this place. Dont get fool with the number of cars outside the restaurant or the number of good reviews. Enchilada's red sauce tasted like pizza's marinara sauce. The whole enchilada tasted like calzone instead of enchilada. If you wanted to have a calzone, just order their enchilada. While the jalapeno sauce tasted like green-colored water, nothing tasted Mexican at all. Go somewhere else if you are looking for authentic or somewhat closer to Mexican food. This place only decorates like a Mexican restaurant. Nothing taste like Mexican food. Not sure how they even stay in business. But i guess this place only gets tourist instead of locals. read more

Baja Cafe - looks are deceiving, does not taste good at all. - Tacos Near Me - Deerfield Beach, Florida

Arrive Saturday night an hour before they closed and service was wonder and fast. Was set fast and food came quickly. They offer yummy free salsa and chips. The salsa was fresh and had a great taste. Got the armadillo eggs (jalapeño poppers) they were so good with the cranberry sauce , I would have never thought to pair them but it was good. I got the chicken chimichanga and it was good just wish the chicken had more flavor. The atmosphere was very nice and the young lady who helped us was fantastic customer service would recommend and go again! read more

It's been almost 4 years since the last time I ate at Baja Cafe. I don't think I'll wait even 4 weeks before I come back. From beginning to end, it was a great experience. Kudos to Savannah, my server. She told me she's been working there for 5 years as a hostess, and only recently became a server. She was both for me, and she was a complete pleasure. Service with a smile! She brought me the menu and asked me if I wanted a drink. Although I love good tequila, and they have a "wall of tequila", I asked for water with lime. Savannah returned quickly with the water (served with an ecological paper straw), a basket of warm chips, and 2 housemade salsas (mild and spicy, both delicious). After looking through their new menu, I decided on a few items and asked Savannah her recommendation. She told me the Mahi fajitas were her favorite. Both the rehipfried and black beans are vegetarian. She recommended the refried with the Mahi fajitas. First she brought me my sides of lettuce, tomato, cheese and guacamole (I asked for no for cream). The metal dish came out streaming and sizzling hot. It looked and smelled amazing. I made my fajita with a warm tortilla. The fish was tender, flavorful, and juicy, the peppers,tomatoes, and onions were perfectly cooked, not mushy but soft with texture. The seasoning was just right, no need to add anything else. When I was finished, Savannah asked me if I wanted dessert. I laughed and asked for a to go container because there was enough leftover for lunch the next day! BTW, if you do a Yelp check-in, you get a discount coupon! Also, make sure to download their app while you're there to get a FREE queso dip during lunch and get their rewards program. read more

This is such a great find! We sat very quickly and we went around a strange time but it was still busy. It smelt so gooood inside. The decor was also cute and really captured but I think a Mexican restaurant is.I got a house margarita and I didn't know it was 2 for 1. I declined my second one and my waitress gave me a rain check for my other one. It was so nice and unprompted! Service was wonderful. The margarita was very good. It was strong which is always a plus. My tacos were amazing. They had so much flavor and were filled with chicken cheese and the best mango salsa. It was so delicious and I essentially licked the plate clean. Before you order, they give you chips and salsa, which is the best. A really great find and I'm excited to go back to try more items on their menu! Loved my experience here. Would recommend to anyone looking for great Mexican food and awesome service. read more

Baja Cafe - Blackened chicken tacos with mango salsa - Tacos Near Me - Deerfield Beach, Florida

Baja Café is a very charming Mexican café! I really had a wonderful time there. It's a very simple restaurant. They do all of the basics admirably. The Salsas are great. So are the freshly made Tortilla Chips. The entrees are almost all covered with delectable cheese. I started my meal with an ice cold Coors Light along with the delightful salsas. You get two salsas. A very spicy, mostly corn, salsa and a mild, chopped tomato based salsa. Both are quite delicious and very different from each other. You could skip dinner, just drink beer and eat the fabulous, light, tortilla chips with the very unique pair of salsas. For my main course, I had the Steak Jaliisco. It was very tender strips of marinated beef steak rolled up in a soft tortilla with onions, chili peppers, spices and smothered with a fantastic cheese. On the side, it came with a hard shell tortilla cup filled with chili con carne and rice. Really fabulous! I put some of the great salsa on top of everything and had a ball eating this magnificent creation! My wife, Diane, had the Steak Tampiquena. It tasted like skirt steak and was equally delicious. I really had a terrific time enjoying this beautiful collection of Mexican tastes washed down with cold Coors Light. I'm coming back to Baja Café soon to enjoy more of this great food! read more

The Mexican food at Baja Cafe was very good. As soon as we sat down a server brought tortilla chips and two kinds of salsas. One salsa was spicy, the other was mild. The salsas tasted fresh. Both salsas were good, but the spicy one was a little too hot for me. I enjoyed the mild salsa. When I go to a Mexican restaurant I must have a Margarita. I was going to get the house Margarita. The server suggested getting the Baja Gold Margarita which was only $1.00 more. It had pancho villa gold, orange curaçao, and Baja juice. It sounded good. I was disappointed with my Margarita. It came in a regular glass, not a Margarita glass. The taste was fair but not great. I asked the server if the bartender could sweeten the drink. He took the drink and returned a few minutes later. It tasted better. For my entree I ordered the steak Tampiquena which came with rice, black beans, avocado, and. a cheese enchilada. The steak was very good. It was tender. Everything was tasty. Service was very good. Our server went out of his way to be helpful. Baja Cafe is a cute Mexican style restaurant. You can sit inside or outside. There's parking in front of the restaurant. read more

Came here with my boo after a great day at the Deerfield beach, was craving Mexican food and decided to pull out the yelp app see what my fellow yelpers are reviewing lol this place wasn't that bad very warm light setting inside, seems like a hole in the wall very decorative in Mexican kinda tourist decor but I loved it cause it made me feel a bit away from home even though I'm a fellow Floridaian I had the enchiladas which was basic not so tasteful to be honest and my boo had a chicken taco salad "diet" he says lol which was actually very wet, the hard shell got soggy from all the juices over fLowing in the taco salad, honestly probably won't come back but it was worth a try and I appreciate any business owner trying to make it in the food industry! Oh wait a good thing was the the 2 for 1 drinks margaritas are a must read more

Living in the neighborhood, I have been eating here since Baja opened - I called to place a take out order ( something I do weekly) and was told WE ARE TOO BUSY SORRY WE CAN'T- this was not on a holiday, not on a Wednesday. I am sure someone else will gladly accept my business . You should really rethink this response. read more

My husband picked here as it seemed like a local favorite. It was gross! I'll never go back. For starters the waitress appeared very distracted and not interested in us. The queso tasted burnt - yuck! We took a few bites. The black beans were in a little condiment cup. They were unseasoned. I can always get my picky eater to eat Mexican. She wouldn't touch her food after one bite. Our table of 7 was very disappointed and agreed we will not be returning. I wish I took photos for you all! Save your money and time. read more

I heard a few good things about this place. I decided to take my wife there as we are pretty close by and we're hungry. Unfortunately, it was not our cup of tea. I had the gator tacos and they were decent, maybe a 3.5/5. Unfortunately, on this day, the food was really just average and the men's bathroom was dirty and it did not smell pleasant. read more

A hidden gem in Deerfield. Amazing food. Amazing owners and staff. Put this place at the top of your list and go get some tacos!!

Found this place on my local search. It was a winner. I had the BBQ pulled chicken quesadilla. This was amazing. So flavorful. All the prices were amazing for the area. The parking lot was full and always a good sign of a place to eat on a Thursday. read more

Maybe it's the post-surf tacos/burritos necessity, but I saw this spot after heading southbound on US 1 after a fun couple waves and I -- a happily relocated former CA'er -- could not recommend higher. The staff, management, and seated patrons were incredibly nice and fun, and they dished up some fine shredded beef burritos. My fav in the state so far. Don't miss this gem! read more

Great fresh food not over spiced ! I had the chicken fajitas and hubby had the beef one both were great, the beef was soft and delicious. The salsa was fresh and free. Their horchata was to die for, just wish it was a bigger serving. The ambiance is nice and the staff is super friendly, prices are fair. read more

The pros of Baja Cafe are the amazing servers and margaritas. Unfortunately the food seemed bland to me and tasted like anything your friends could throw together.

Food is trash. Tasted like someone that doesn't know anything about food made it. Smh. Service is good.

Margaritas were good and food was excellent! Satans Revenge Burrito has a nice spice to it without being as hot as the name would indicate. Chili Relleno was prepared the way it should be with a thin breading and cheese in the middle. Pork Wings were fall off the bone tender and had great flavor. Pork carnitas were excellent, not the over salted garbage many restaurants put out. We'll be back next time we're in town. read more

Drinks were pretty damn strong....I strongly recommend the Cadillac, The Godfather, and the Merzcel Margarita. The queso dip was also A+, the food overall was nothing to brag about the place is small but it gives you a good welcoming feel. Not a lot of tvs ...so if you're trying to watch a game ...o recommend some other spot. Make sure you check in via Yelp to get your 15% off. read more

Extremely disappointed in this visit. Been there a few times and always enjoyed. Enough so that I talked it up and took an out of town guest there from the moment we walked in until the moment we left it was an unpleasant and unsavory visit. It started with two guys and a lady and a kid who seem like they were going to be remodeling the restaurant in the upcoming days. She was more attentive to the work that was to be done rather than the child. It was loud it was disrespectful. Then came the food which was completely inedible. I'm not sure what was happening, but everything about this trip left a bad taste at my mouth and I will not be going back The food, the service, the ambience was all a big thumbs down. And I'm not even gonna mention the prices. Adios Baja. read more

Once upon a time there was this teeny tiny mexican hot spot in Boca in a retail strip mall and the popularity of this roughly 8 table establishment skyrocketed. So popular they would regularly offer patrons free coffee and dessert if you take it outside (standing area, no tables) so they can seat some of the many people always waiting to get their mexican fix. They finally moved to Lighthouse Point and go figure they outgrew that establishment too. And here we are today in Deerfield Beach. You know you're there the moment you drive in (a serious collage of color). Parking is a bitch here but worth the fight because the food rocks. I tend to try new things here normally but my friends/family are hooked on fajitas. To be honest I never order them because no one can finish an order; so I try something new and still manage to create a fajita masterpiece (or two). Food quality and quantity are both above par. Other favorite dishes worth trying: drunken burrito, satan's revenge burrito, pepe's spinach enchiladas with chicken, shrimp or steak asadas Great bar with huge selection of tequila of course. Frozen margaritas are the obvious choice here but choosing one can be a bitch (at least 10 on menu plus specials). My advice is don't splurge for any of the specials or anything other than the basic frozen margarita (it's fairly priced... just decide salt or no salt, regular or strawberry, frozen or on the rocks). Sangria is pretty good too. The prices are very fair already, but it's easy to find a deal here too. Wednesday is 2 for 1 margaritas and tequilas all night long. The very often give "free margarita" cards to use on you next visit (ask for it if you don't get one). Restaurant.com almost always has deals for Baja Cafe available. Groupon or Living Social have made offers not too long ago. So no excuse not to try it out... read more

So I passed by this restaurant a few times and I was thinking maybe I should try a new Mexican place. My usual order at any Mexican restaurant is Chicken Fajitas and instead of rice and beans I ask for a salad. So first off, they bring some really good chips and salsa (two kinds), one a traditional and the other a slightly sweet and spicy corn. Both delicious and fresh. My side salad was pretty big and I only was able to get through a little of it. The fajitas were generously portioned and full of lots of peppers and onions. Tasted really good and I really enjoyed my meal. The service was excellent and everyone was helpful. Definitely will come back again Update! Took my dad here for dinner and he loved it! As usual, everything was fresh and delicious. Ordered the fajitas again but didn't ask for it without tomatoes (I think it's their salsa). It was different in a good way but I prefer it without it. Service is excellent and the staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful! When looking for good Mexican food this is the place! read more

Decent tequilas... atrocious fish tacos. If you don't believe me, please, by all means, order the Baja fish tacos. You'll be greeted by a glob of what I'm assuming is pico de gallo and tons of stale cabbage. Buried somewhere in that mess, there is a frozen patty that somehow tastes worse than grocery store fish sticks. Upon further inspection, one can see the terrible quality of the fish. I've never seen such perfectly round pieces of frozen fish. Mmm mmm.. just like they make them in Baja California. Oh and kudos to the staff on the day-old rice and beans. The guts to serve that at all is certainly admirable. Let's serve some awful fish tacos and pair it up with stale rice and beans. L-A-Z-Y read more
