This was a very comical visit. I asked if I could just have 2 bean and cheese tacos and it was awful lol. Frozen teaspoon of beans, and frozen cheese. I did like the tortilla and salsa even though they were stale bc I was super hungry lol. I will deffff not be back. I will say I enjoyed my drink. read more

Baja Cantina - trying to stay positive - Mexican Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

The food is really good. Better than what I expected. The Korean beef torta has so much flavor. The sauce on the beef is sweet with a hint of ginger paired with the kimchi slaw made for a decadent sandwich. The carnita fries were loaded with beans, cheese, and guacamole. They were really good. The barbacoa tacos were flavorful, the rice and beans were really really good and I'm anti refried beans. Definitely will check this place out again but I would not order any mixed drinks, they are super weak. And I mean juice weak read more

Parking we were already there for the day so it was in the garage. If you eat there they validate your parking but idk how much you get off. Service was a little slow from the waitress herself but the guy in the front was very efficient and prompt. They probably should have had him taking the orders. Ceviche was decent. Burrito bowls were good especially the steak BUT they served us in rusted bowls. Like I thought it was just the rim but alas it was the bottom which I didn't even see until I took a big scoop for a bite. I did say something to the bartender who said she would tell the owner they needed new bowls. I literally fed my child rust which I get it, it's just iron oxide but you know what? It probably was some of the paint chips too around where the rust occurred. That's just bad business. I would go to a chain if I were in that area because that's an easy thing to fix and yet here we are. read more

We walked in not sure if we order at the bar or at the table since they don't have a host stand. We asked and we can pick any table, the server does take our order. Very casual place and food was really good! The tacos are loaded!! Kimchi on Korean beef is more like a coleslaw, not authentic kimchi. The ceviche is a must try! Favorite taco is the Baja fish. Paid $5 parking in shopping center lot across the street, had to walk across the bridge and cross the street to get to restaurant. read more

Well came here last night on a Thursday and surprise it's Happy Hour all day Thursday including the HH bites! Stuck with the cantina $5 HH frozen margarita which was good and a ordered the chicken cone and fries from the HH bites for $12. But for $12 you get an assortment of boneless wings sauces up to your liking and fries crisped to a golden perfection! Def a plate to share for two! We also had the tower nachos for $10 during HH. I'll be back as always this place doesn't disappoint. read more

Baja Cantina - Chicken Bowl - Mexican Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

Mixed feelings. Fish taco was good and server was great. Here is the big issues. Beans and rice were at best room temperature. When asked for new ones was more of same. Do not eat food at room temperature when it's been sitting around in the kitchen. Also beer is flat. I want to like this place since it's nice location and fish taco not bad. But the red flags are everywhere. read more

I had the pleasure of having lunch at Baja Cantina today. The restaurant was very clean, and the service was prompt and friendly. I had the breakfast taco with chorizo and potatoes--it was delicious. My family had the ceviche, which was also very good. Overall, we had a great time and really enjoyed our meal. read more

Knew this place had a prime location, but we werent expecting the food to be THIS good!! Very impressed by the quality of tacos & drinks. Such a fun spot to be in all the action in the woodlands read more

We arrived at the restaurant around 7 and we were seated right after which was about the only highlight of me and my family's experience. Our server (The guy in the photo) was just the whole time. The first red flag was when my mom asked for a virgin pina colada, and after he informed her the ice machine was broken he suggested, and even AFTER my mom declined that he STILL kept suggesting the alternatives. Second red flag was none of us could even get our drinks without him gossiping about how the Bar Louie Next door to them had borrowed their blender and broke it so now they have "beef", and even more inappropriate, he started talking about how his ex BOYFRIEND works nextdoor to that Bar Louie's and he "did him wrong" and was like spelling out cuss words right in front of my 16 year old sister and 8 year old neice so they could "understand" YUCK. I guess he was trying to win us over so he could get a tip but that did the opposite. Reason why I mentioned we arrived at 7 Earlier is because we didn't get our food until an hour later at 8:02. And even AFTER he just kept piling up on the mistakes, my aunt had to ask him to bring some sauce for her tacos 8 Times before he finally brought it! And by the time it got here, her tacos were ice cold. My mom had originally ordered a quesadilla and 2 chicken tacos which got here 7 minutes AFTER we all got our food at the same time, by the way it was only her quesadillas that got here, the tacos NEVER came. Then it was finally time for the bill and the cherry on top was him not taking off the messed up orders until we asked for the manager to. Food was ok, not something to travel for but good for lunch but that plus all the trouble makes this place a 2/5 stars. read more

Fun atmosphere. The Watermelon Aqua Fresca is super tasty. The chicken flautas are fresh and crispy. The kimchi torta is perfect. Nice patio area. read more

Baja Cantina gets my vote for best happy hour in the woodlands. They have $5 margaritas, which can come frozen or on the rocks and taste more expensive than they are, lots of food discounts, including my favorite the nachos! These things were loaded with chicken, cheese, sour cream, beans, pico, multiple types of salsa... they're much higher quality than any restaurant nachos I've gotten before. They could easily feed 3-4 people. read more

Baja Cantina - Nacho Tower - Mexican Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

Came with some friends for dinner and drinks before a concert. It was very busy but so was everywhere else on the waterway and the wait wasn't that bad. I got a large frozen margarita with mango chamoy flavor. It was too sweet for my taste and very strong (I usually like regular margs over frozen). For food, I got a taco plate with the Barbacoa taco and a grilled shrimp taco. The barbacoa was pretty good with a decent serving of meat that was tender. I liked the shrimp taco a lot, which had large shrimp with a yummy sauce. There was a jalapeño sauce on the side which was good and definitely gave everything a kick. The rice and beans are pretty standard, nothing crazy special but executed well. Overall I thought for $13.50 the price for the plate is ok for the waterway. Staff is friendly and comes by to check on you frequently. Good option if you're on the waterway looking for a casual meal. They usually have happy hour but it isn't offered if there's a concert. read more

The Waterway District close to Cynthia Woods in The Woodlands is an awesome place to go out. There are a bunch of restaurants and bars along this beautiful stretch so it's easy to bar hop while also taking in the beauty of the waterway (especially at night when everything is lighted). Baja Cantina is a Mexican restaurant that turns into a bar in the evenings. I stopped by on a Saturday for drinks and I didn't have any food so I can't can't comment on that. While Baja has a colorful interior, along with table top seating and seating in the bar, we sat on their spacious patio. There was a DJ playing a mix of rap and Latin music which added to the ambiance. Service was pretty good throughout and we had a couple of rounds. One of the highlights was this drink served in a cauldron of sorts. I forget the name but it has tequila and it's a largeeee drink. Yeeeee. Baja gets pretty hype with the DJ. A bro fell on his head and performed some sort of failed acrobatics. A couple performed a synchronized dance. Drinks with free entertainment. Can't complain. The only real downside for me is that they only have two private bathrooms which isn't enough when capacity is high. I'll definitely have to return at some point to try the food! read more

What a great place for a midweek happy hour hangout. We really love the outdoor atmosphere which is adjacent to the waterway. The house margaritas and signature chicken nachos are a must try. The service was fantastic and combined with great happy hour prices, we will definitely be back soon! read more

My favorite spot to stop by for brunch on the weekend, tres leche pancakes, delicious tacos, and $15 bottle service mimosa what more could a girl need! The location is on the waterway with indoor/outdoor seating (fans and heaters outside) which hard working staff members. The food has always been hot when we received it. We've tried wings which were great multiple tacos always wonderful. The quesobirria tends to be a little hit or miss it seems the recipe changes at time. Other than that normally a to go to spot on the weekend read more

Baja Cantina - Spicy margarita- so good!! - Mexican Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

We went in on a Wednesday night at about 7pm. The restaurant was relatively empty, maybe 7 tables full. We sat down and were not acknowledged until about 7 minutes in, no drink orders taken no orders requested. We waited for another 10 minutes with no service and walked out. Bad service and will not be back, for the prices being charged on drinks and food you would expect much better service. Wouldn't recommend. read more

I've been to Baja Cantina a few times for brunch on Sunday's . They never disappoint. Today my bar serves were Alexa (i hope i didn't butcher her name) and Patrick they were very attentive and amazing . They got our orders correct and ensured we were doing good through the meal before leaving today we got two shots of casamigos . Happy Sunday everyone ! A must try ! read more

Our group met here for an early Saturday dinner, and we were seated immediately. Fun vibe but atrocious parking- I had to pay six dollars to park nearby Westin hotel parking garage. The drinks for very ho-hum and small for the size price. NACHO TOWER WAS OK, and they had a huge selection of various tacos. My Maui Wowie Taco was ok. Service was good. read more

I'm visiting and my friend who lives in the area suggested we try this, she hadn't been here before either. We loved the surrounding area in Woodlands with the waterway in sight. The outdoor seating was nice with plenty of tables. I first ordered the rose mimosa which came out with a hair in it. I hate sending food or drinks back but this to me was a must. The server happily got me another which then ended up being fine. My friend and I shared the stuffed French toast and I had the bacon and egg tacos. The tacos were delicious and the French toast was pretty good although really sweet. My friend ordered the Baja burrito but the server got her order wrong and brought her the wrong burrito. I think the issue with the service was that they were understaffed and our server had too many tables to handle. I wouldn't come back here and I probably wouldn't recommend it either - I feel bad for giving 3 stars but it's an honest review. read more

The location for starters is the bomb! In the Woodlands and right by the waterway. It's a great location. The trolley pass right by it. The staff is great and so friendly. Customer service is RIGHT!! It's great for a photo op for IG. A very artsy restaurant. The menu has a lot of options to choose from. The food taste so good. The wings are good and crispy and the Baja sauce is fire! The queso is definitely a hit! I had chorizo added and that was a great idea. The margarita was very nice it had a great flavor and you can taste the liquor. The tacos are delicious! I'll be back and I plan to get the girls together for a happy hour here!! read more

We love stopping in at Baja Cantina if we are in the Woodlands for an event or concert. Its a really fun restaurant with a great ambiance. The food and drinks are always top notch and we always have a great time. Sometimes the service is a little slow but being in the middle of the Woodlands Waterway area, we do understand that it can be pretty busy. Also, the staff is always apologetic if there is long wait times. We love coming here, and we will continue to support this business! read more

This place was really nice to stop by. I was here once before a few years ago I don't stay in the area but today was the day lol. Me and my mom stopped in to get a bite to eat before going back home and this was just the perfect spot to be at. We ordered 6 tacos so we can have 3 each and the food was delicious as well as the drinks. The service at that bar was just as good as the food, I was able to notice the manager on the floor working just as hard as everyone else which definitely make a difference in a restaurant. Needless to say, I can't wait to come back to another nice meal here. Definitely will tell friends about this if they are in the area. read more

Enjoyed the atmosphere & Mexican Lotería decor in the place. The drinks are well prepared. Especially the Horchata Colada. It's refreshing and not heavy. The flautas are seasoned well & chips and salsa have good flavors, the only thing is the chips were cold. We added a side of queso. Each table had a bottle of hand sanitizer. The waitress was quick, friendly & attentive. They also offer brunch. Check online for the menu. read more

I love it here! I've been here twice in the past 3 weeks for a post nursing lab snack. The first time we came was around 12 PM on a Thursday, it wasn't that busy but there was a crowd. The service was amazing! I got a Baja Margarita which was delicious and a Birria Quesadilla which I LOVED. The second time we arrived a few mins before opening on a Friday it was about 14 of us eager to celebrate our last exam in a class with drinks. The Mexican Candy Shot I ordered was delicious but strong, it caught me off guard but did the job. I got the Birria Taco, Chorizo Taco, Baja Fish Taco with Side Rice & Beans and of course the Birria Tacos blew my mind. I'm not sure who controls the music but they are always on point! I love it here!! read more
