My husband and I are traveling through Tucson and needed some food and a place to rest from driving so much. I found this place and I could eat this pancake everyday and I would not regret it. The burrito was the perfect combo. I wish I lived closer. Or maybe not. read more

Baja Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The food here is subpar and either a hodge podge of southwestern type ingredients, grifting on the locality of the restaurant. Or an overly sugary "mess". The service here is hit or miss, 4 out of 5 times you will get bad service! The last time I visited I was treated terribly. I even wrote a detailed Google review and was responded to very rudely by the owner. They don't respect their clientele or honest reviews because they think they are just flawless. They will report and attempt to have any reviews that don't say they are great removed! So beware, their reviews are inflated! read more

It is a small place but the food is sooo delicious. We went here for the 1st time after my son's graduation. Although it was busy on a mid morning Tuesday, we were seated within 5 minutes of checking in. They sat us at a back table next to the window looking out towards the road. Service was fast and friendly. Everything we ordered was phenomenal. The flavors were on point and everything was cooked well. The only complaint on food was the snickerdoodle was too much sugar on top for us. There was only 1 issue when there and that was something my husband noticed because he was facing the window. They seem to have a fly problem. In one photo I took, there was a graveyard of flies just on the window. We also had some on the side of our table. I know flies can be hard to avoid and they get especially bad during summer but it was not something nice to look at (for my husband since he was facing them) while eating. Overall though the food was so good and I can see why it has the high stars. read more

Myself and my wife decided to come here for Easter breakfast. Surprisingly they were able to get us some really quickly. I ordered eggs Benedict, my wife ordered bacon, eggs, and the snickerdoodle pancake. Food was fantastic as well as the Service. The only thing I don't know if Bre should cost $60? I know people have to make money. It just seemed a little bit high for a casual breakfast place. It's definitely worth the visit. Absolutely give them a try. Maybe next time we'll go back and just get the pancake. It's very big and two people can share it easily. read more

We brought my hubby for his first visit to Baja. Short wait at 10:30am on a Monday for a table. The interior is colorful and cozy. Our server was terrific! Our breakfast was fast and so delicious! My hubby loved his train wreck dish. He enjoyed all the flavors. My daughter's monsoon egg Benedict was delicious. The avocado with arugula and balsamic glaze, chef's kiss! First time trying eggs Benedict and she truly enjoyed it. My son devoured his burro. It was filled with eggs potatoes, bacon, green chile and cheese. I had the pancake combo but shared the amazing pancake with my family. Eggs cooked perfectly, delicious hash browns but I don't use salt as much anymore so the bacon tasted pretty salty to me. The pancake was delicious, fluffy, sweet, crunchy. You all need to get one! read more

I stop by Baja Cafe a few times a year and recently went back to visit again. Still 5/5 for flavor and price. You can't beat the cinnamon roll pancake. I also love that their breakfast plates are huge and can easily be shared. We sat on the shaded patio with the mister which was perfect since we have a new baby. Service was quick and the waitress was friendly and knowable about the dishes. We'll be back! read more

We moved away for a while, and one of our first stops was Baja Cafe. Everything was still as magical as ever.... but the biggest change was the snickerdoodle pancake now comes in 2 sizes.... obvious to this, we ordered the large one....... IT WAS MASSIVE. We were not prepared for such a big pancake! Also, my kid, who was pretty picky.... went bold and tried something out of her comfort zone. She got King Kong, and absolutely loved it. read more

This place is off the charts!! Open until 2pm everyday. We had breakfast & they serve Bloody Mary's & Mimosas. (They do have a cocktail menu as well). Corned Beef & Eggs, Berry Danish French Toast, Sausage & Hash Browns. I'm not sure where to start. The Corned Beef Hash is cooked over 12hrs. The most delicious I've ever had!! Cinnamon sliced Broche bread for French Toast w/a creme, powdered sugar and loaded with fresh fruit & toppedcw/whipped cream too. Unbelievable!! Sausage perfect & top notch. But the Hash Browns were huge & again, perfectly cooked. Wash that down with a great mixed Bloody Mary's & you have all the touches on a fantastic Brunch!! Bill $67 + tip. Service was excellent as well. This is a must have on your list for breakfast in Tucson. Nobody else comes close! Thanks so much to this team here!! read more

I'm from out of town and the Baja Cafe came highly recommended. I happened to love breakfast, it's my favorite meal. The Baja Cafe did not disappoint. I had the true homemade corn beef & hash which I love. i drink my coffee black and it was smooth and not bitter. The service was excellent. I will differentially be back. The ambulance was, clean calm and comfortable. Not loud & noisy. Thank you Baja Cafe for a wonderful tasty experience. read more

Baja Cafe never disappoints! This place absolutely deserves a spot in the top three breakfast restaurants in Arizona. Every time I visit, I try one of the specials--and they never miss. Shoutout to our server, Samantha, for providing outstanding service from start to finish. The special Benedict with perfectly poached eggs was a flavor combination out of this world--creamy, spicy, and incredibly rich. Every bite delivered. You might have to wait to be seated on the weekends, but it's worth every minute. The base menu is just as impressive as the specials. 10/10--top-tier quality, bold flavors, and excellent service. read more

Umm Yes! Yelp you have done it again. Thank you thank you thank you for leading me to this delicious local spot. We took a day trip to Tucson on a whim and figured we eat some Mexican food out there ! Baja cafe is the perfect place for breakfast classic with a Mexican twist! The menu is so well thought out. They honor the simple classics like waffles and eggs Benedict but add a little something special. All the ingredients are home made, like sauces and the beef; which is seasoned perfectly then slow cooked for 20 hours + ...There's so much love put in their meals!! I also had a prickly pear mimosas; dude it was deeeeelicious!! oh and the juice is fresh squeezed. Everything was really tasty and satisfying ! They even gave us a treat as a token for being a first time guest. I will be back when I'm down in Tucson! read more

Tiny hole in the wall breakfast cafe. Popular place, good thing we went early (9/5). Our waitress Angela was fantastic and gave my husband a run for his money with wisecracks. I loved it. When our food came, I totally forgot to take pictures. I had the pancake combo and you could choose from 6 different types of pancakes. The combo came with eggs, hash browns and your choice of meat and choice of pancake. My husband had the French toast combo with the difference being the french toast. He didnt realize that the French Toast was made using a cinnamon roll type bread. It ended up being too sweet. He couldnt finish it but he ate the rest. I will admit my eyes wer bigger than my stomach. I also got the Liege waffles, they looked so good. Overall, very good breakfast spot. Would go again AND probably get the same thing. read more

I will start of saying I didn't want to like it. But oh my G-d I do. The food here is so good. Be prepared for a carb overload if you go the pancake direction, but I think if you need a cheat day or something get the cinnamon roll flavored pancake. DIED and went to heaven. The benedicts are ALL bomb as well. Basic sausage and eggs is even remarkable. My waiters have all been exceedingly nice and attentive. The locaton is usually crowded but it's spaced out nicely between tables and its a fun vibe for a restaurant. One of the best large portioned breakfasts in town. GO!! It's also a great place to bring out of towners. read more

I rarely, if ever, allow a second visit when on vacation, but this tiny,unassuming, breakfast joint earned it! The first day we had just finished a 5mile hike, so we thought it was heaven on a plate. The 2nd day we showed up less active, but with family members added and we all agreed, BEST BREAKFAST EVER! I will dream about the Alcatraz breakfast platter! That was the most amazing flavors of perfectly seasoned yum, I've ever tasted. Thank goodness, my kiddos ordered the Cinnamon Roll pancake and the Pineapple Express. Both, were to die for! We need a Baja here in KCMO. Amazing, worth the wait! read more

A small local brunch spot with large portion. There's a reason why people will wait in 100 degree weather to eat here. It was my first time and it was worth the wait. I ordered the eggs and pancake combo with snickerdoodle pancake. My MIL ordered build your own omelette. We got a free pancake for the table because it was my first time and picked the lemon blueberry pancake. While my eggs and bacon were simple, the pancakes stole the show. The snickerdoodle was my favorite because I love cinnamon. The lemon blueberry is perfect for summer and is a delicious combination. read more

Waited about 20m on a Sunday which wasn't bad. They have water, chairs and shade outside which is nice. We were seated inside. I brought my friends here who just moved to Tucson and really hyped this place up cause I've always enjoyed it and I told them about the free pancake for first timers, but they didn't get one even though they stated they were new to town and it was their first time. Our server was great. I got an omelette and it was cooked perfectly, with yummy toast and great hash browns. read more

Ranked No. #34 on Yelp's list Their Lemon Blueberry Pancakes with that ridiculously yummy house-made lemon curd in the middle is insanely good. They take fluffy flapjacks to a whole other level. It was so moist I wanted to slap myself to see if I was dreaming. You can order small or large. Large is just another layer. A small can feed 2 people. I was in serious food coma afterwards. My son had the Train Wreck and even though it looked like a hot mess (hence the name of this dish) each bite had you wanting more. It had a nice kick to it. It comes with a crispy hash brown and woww wow wow, this one item will make you want to come here again and again. Super popular brunch spot with constant patrons coming and going. You get a lot for your buck, I saw many people taking the leftovers home. Come hungry!! Our server, Connor, was very polite and I appreciate all the recommendations. read more

People on yelped loved this place so off I went. They open at 6:00 am, so they were perfect for my traveling trip. The menu, though only a few pages, is somewhat overwhelming with what all appear to be life changing choices. A whole page of Benedicts! I chose the Yosemite & waited for what I expected to be a breakfast delight. I was not disappointed. It was really good & all the flavors went together to make my tummy very happy. As soon as it arrived, in case I thought I wasnt getting enough to eat, Nicolle, my server, informed me that first timers get a snickerdoodle pancake...wow. I was really not ready for this, as it is a pancake the size of the plate & Nicolle told me this was the little one. They make one that overlaps onto the table... I also wanted to comment that Im a big iced tea drinker & Nicolle never let me run out AND she made me a large fresh iced tea to take away as well. This was just a great experience. I look forward to another trip down to Tucson read more

My daughter and I decided to eat breakfast out on Easter Sunday, then skip lunch and dinner. We'd considered other breakfast places, but decided on Baja Cafe as we'd seen it on a TV program (You Gotta Eat Here) years ago.There were quite a few people waiting for a table, but since there were only 2 of us, we got right in. We each ordered a bloody Mary, but they were so huge and spicy, we were unable to finish them, so that was a miss. The hit was the food, I had the Wyatt Earp and she had the Wolverine. The portions were more than generous and the food was delicious. We took a lot home. The waitress, Samantha, was sweet and helpful. She knew the menu items very well. I'm hoping to go back eventually, but eating out is so cost prohibitive, I don't know how people do it on a regular basis. We'll be eating at home for the foreseeable future. But this was a very good experience. read more

Wow! This amazing happiest, funnest and excellent server, Angela , and the great food with friends was just great. I got their avocado toast with arugula , so huge that one slice of two , went home with me for dinner that night. Tasty, fresh and overall presentation of that, one friend's lemon blueberry pancake( an entire plate was size!) and my other friends regular pancake (same dinner plate size) was nice. It was quite busy inside, but had plenty of space between tables. Honestly, felt like Angela was our own personal server. She was hilarious and found we joked with her too, she was passionate with being great at her job, she loves what she does and as you see by the picture she gave me permission to post - that she just exudes happiness. We know hers is one of the hardest roles in the job world- so we just were thrilled to be a part of her world for an hour. We need more Angela's in this world! Baja Cafe - you have a true asset there!! read more

After traveling, we decided to have breakfast for lunch. We found this gem with the help of fellow Yelpers so thank you! I had the home made corned beef. It was a large serving and was real good. The hash brown potatoes were cooked perfectly with the nice crunch on the outside and perfectly cooked potatoes on the inside. There was a generous amount of meat with the other hash veggies. I should have read the menu better and asked for the gravy on the side because it didn't need it. The Benedict was cooked perfectly also! The staff were warm and welcoming. I'd come back again! read more

After seeing all the positive reviews, I had to stop in while in town for work! I went on a Sunday morning at about 9AM, it was about a 20 minute wait for just myself. Once I got seated, my server was busy with a large party so someone else came over to take my drink order (coffee which is hot and high quality), and shortly after my server Sam came and checked in with me. She is kind, attentive and easy going. The restaurant is a casual vibe and moves efficiently. There is lots of unique options on the menu. The people next to me got some sort of Benedict which looked delicious, French toast, and liege waffles (also looked fab!). Being just by myself I opted for the black widow Benedict but also got a side of the smoked Gouda sauce, which was great with the hash browns. The Benedict was a good size, and also scrumptious and plenty of flavors. All the tables already have hot sauce, salt, pepper, ketchup which is nice, plus creamers and sugar for coffee. I would definitely come back here again when I'm in the area read more
