All Bajas in the area are horrible. They have a 2 margarita limit and even if you are here 4 hours and eat food. They don't care! Management is arrogant and pretentious. DO NOT EAT HERE!!!! read more

Disappointed! My family has been enjoying Baja for the past 15 years! We like the fact that it is local and much of the staff has become like family! Not to mention some of the best margaritas around!!! (Except for the new glasses). This past Wednesday 12/7/2022, my wife and I had one of the worst experiences with a manager that we have ever had at Baja. Not sure if management has changed or not, but I have never been treated so poorly and dismissed when asking a question about a supposed change to ordering margaritas. If the goal is to run away customers and loyal ones at that you are in the right path. read more

I don't know if this restaurant is under new management but the atmosphere, the drinks and the food was TRASH. I didn't like my drink and asked for the manager and he was SO rude. Never coming back again, this was my second bad experience in a month. Do NOT recommend read more

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. .Me and my friends used to love coming here for drinks, I heard it changed a lot so I came to try it again. Never again will we come back: What ever new management that took over completely ruined this place. I came for my birthday and after my second drink they where hawkeying the table the whole time like we were gonna do something bad. Felt weird so we left. read more

We've been coming to Baja for 5 years and we have yet to come across a better (or stronger) margarita. The surf and turf tacos are our favorite and their guacamole is the best around. read more

Back to being my favorite location. Quality of food is back up to par and the rice and beans at this location are delicious! Stellar service too, not only quick but they also gave my son a free lemonade while we waited. Thank you, we will be back! read more

I ate there on Friday for the first time. I can't believe the lady manager was Chastising her employees in front of others. She was terrible and very disrespectful to her employees. We were shocked. Ok tried again...alert alert hair in the food !!!! read more

Love this place! Bad ass margaritas! Bad ass food! Bad ass staff! Great cross between Cali/New Mexican/Texan influenced! One of my favorite places, highly recommend brisket tacos! read more

Curbside service no longer available as advertise on yelp. Yelp should insist on updating daily if not weekly. Had to walk in with mask no problem but curbside advertised not available. This fall it will go back to curbside and I won't go back because of this one confusing advertisement. read more

This place has always been one of our favorites. We really miss going in so we decided to order and curbside pickup. We ordered around 12:30, it was ready in about 15-20 mins and the food was amazing! You can also order the margaritas to go. The whole staff is awesome and we can't wait to go back! read more

So I come here because it I ms close to my house and the drinks are LIT however today my experience was even subpar for this place ordered this shrimp quesadilla I would not have even been able to force feed this shit to my dogs bartender had his back against me the whole time I paid for the food didn't want To be that person but as a bartender and service industry professional I would only come here to drink food and customer service is sub par to say the least read more

I don't know why I like this place so much, but I do. Everything I've had is very good, if unremarkable. The salsa is solid. I always get the Tacos Al Carbon and they never disappoint. If you're looking for something special, this place isn't it. If you're looking for reliable, affordable Tex-Mex with consistent service you can't go wrong. read more

The service was good. I got a frozen margarita and it was great! Probably best to have just 1 if you are driving! I ordered quesadillas but got brisket nachos by accident. I would have sent it back but they looked so good so I just kept it and ate them! They were very good and they are great and easy to share for an appetizer! I will be back! read more

Great tacos and margaritas! Didn't like our server this last time we went he wasn't friendly. The queso fundido with chorizo is bomb! It's a must try. Great place to have food and drinks. read more

Things are a changing here at Baja. Been a very regular customer for years 5-6. Will NOT be back. Menu changes,,service levels have deteriorated to a level where I feel I should thank them for allowing me to fine there. With 15-20 Mexican restaurants within a 5 mile radius we all have choices. Showed up for happy hour dinner with 2 other people. Ordered a new "happy hour" drink on our second round only to be told we missed the time by a minute. A minute!!! $87 tab to zero. Was it worth the $3 to piss IFF a loyal long time customer? Never going back, I'll find a new place to get Mexican food. Shake my head. read more

I love this place never had an issue all the employees and mangers but the manager that was there yesterday night (6/23/22) im sorry but he was not the nicest TO HIS EMPLOYEES the way he talked to them was just something i have never seen there at baja! And hopefully that gets resolved because that was not okay! Breaks my heart seeing them work there ass off! And He just stands there and talks to them with so much attitude and anger me and my husband could not stand it and felt so uncomfortable we had to go. read more

This place has excellent food..but tonight the service was horrible and the worst part was a terrible group of families decided to let their several under 6 yr old children run around in the parking lot and scream and yell. I'm not trying to be witness to babies being squished.. ruined our time.. sucks real bad and I spoke to our waiter about it and several other patrons who were equally disturbed.. but made no difference to any of the staff.. so we rushed our meal and got out of there before we needed brain bleach. read more

Great food, great service, fantastic margaritas and great crowd. Love the parrillada, always order Isa's queso as an appetizer and recently discovered the surf and turf tacos which are AMAZING. One of my faves! read more

This place has some pretty solid Mexican food. The style of the food seems closer to a Californian interpretation of Mexican as opposed to Tex-Mex; their fish tacos are one of their better menu items and the entire restaurant is decorated with a surfer vibe. The service is quick and snappy and the food, while nothing amazing, isn't going to disappoint either. The atmosphere is a little loud but certainly not boring. This restaurant also offers take-out in the entrance next door, El Taco H. The menu in there is a bit smaller, but the two restaurants share a kitchen and the food is more or less the same. read more

This place never disappoints. The margaritas are delicious and huge, the food is delicious as well, I've never had anything I didn't like. Most recently my husband and I shared the parillada (spelling?) for two. It was amazing with huge portions, enough for both of us plus a takeaway. Check it out for yourself! read more

This place has THE BEST margarita's. 2 give you quite a big buzzzzzz. They taste delicious. The brisket tacos are really good, but mainly the margaritas are what we go for. I love the Baja Cali. vibe. Reminds me of some places to eat in Cali at some of the beaches. Go there! NOW!!! read more

I'm not usually a margarita fan unless I am at Baja. They have the strongest and best margaritas I have come across. Try the perfect frozen margarita. read more

Good food! Everything was served fresh and hot. Service was timely and friendly by Brenda. Food is a little on the pricy side for the same thing at a different location but you will forget that part once you taste the food. Drinks are strong like others have mentioned. read more

Every single time I have gone the wait staff is absolutely horrible! I have had to flag down people just to place my order and to get my check after waiting 45mins. The waiters never check on you. They always have some sort of attitude. You can never find your waiter when you need them. Management obviously doesn't care. read more

The family and I get a Baja 'fix' at least once per week for the past several years. I have tried almost everything on the menu. If you don't see something ask the server. There are lots of off menu options. Blackened Fish Tacos, Chicken Chimi w/ Verde sauce vs. Cheese, Shrimp Taco (backend or not). Just ask, I have never heard NO ... ever. My wife is on a gluten fee diet. There are plenty of 'corn' only options or just ask if you have questions. Many of the wait staff are knowledgeable about gluten fee diet. Bring your own chips since they are fried with other battered products. Ok that's a negative. The Ceviche is very close to what you can find In Mexico City. In the US yes, you only get fish vs. Pulpo (squid) or other options found in Mexico. Give it a try. On the negative comments on service. Service has always been acceptable for us. Go early, it gets crowded by 6 ish on Friday and Saturday. That's says volumes. read more

This is my family's go-to place for comfort mexican food. The food here is always awesome, not the mention the killer margaritas (of which there are many choices to choose from). The fish and brisket taco are consistently divine. They will even incorporate these meats into other dishes if you want. The brisket makes wonderful quesadillas and chimmys. Great atmosphere with an eclectic vibe. Service is fast and efficient. A great place to hang out with a group or bring the kids. Weekends try the brunch menu. Hey, by the way the place is on North Tarrant Pkwy at Hwy 377 facing the Home Depot. read more

We tried this place when it first opened and found the service horrible and the food even worse. But, having driven by and seen the crowds we thought it must have improved so we gave it another try, which we really regret. Ok, so the margaritas, which were actually made by hand, not poured from a machine, were good. But, for 8.99 each, they better be. Starting with the service. We arrived early to avoid the crowd, about 4:45 so we're not talking the middle of the afternoon. The place was mostly empty. The host took us to a table in front of the hot window and we asked if we could sit further back. He handed me the menus and told us to sit where we wanted and walked away. Jeez. The service from there was just as we remembered. They act like they're doing you a favor when they stop by the table. Very arrogant, rude attitudes. The food was just as bad as before. I really, really don't understand the 4 star reviews. My husband got the beef fajitas and the meat looked like three day old beef jerky. It was totally inedible. I got chicken enchiladas and never have I had such a dry enchilada. There was barely any chicken inside the tiny, rolled-up corn tortilla and absolutely no sauce or cheese inside. Just scant, dry, white-meat chicken. The prices were way, way too high for food that was worse than a frozen dinner. Wish I had seen S O's review that included the health department inspections. I'm not a bit surprised. This place is just nasty. If you want good mexican food, go to Fresco's down the road. read more

Our favorite Mexican restaurant with the BEST margaritas. Been trying many places in the area but nobody seems to live up to Baja's "Perfect" margarita. Really yummy street tacos too! read more

Baja Cantina - Mexican Near Me - Watagua, Texas

We found it! Finally, a fun and reliable place for good Mexican food and awesome margaritas just minutes from home. My favorites so far are the fish tacos (grilled), guacamole enchiladas (enchiladas filled with fajita beef covered in a delicious guacamole sauce), and the Tex Mex soft tacos (the ultimate in Tex Mex comfort food). Most entrees are priced between $8 and $12. You can have rice and refried beans, or choose two other side dishes. My favorite sides: Try the roasted corn and fat-free black beans; both are outstanding. Like most Mexican spots in these parts, unlimited chips and salsa are part of the deal, and Baja's salsa has a great "zing" to it. My daughter enjoys their nachos, and last night the beef taco salad she and my wife ordered earned their rave reviews. As for the margaritas, these are some of the best in the area IMO. Not too tart and definitely not for the faint-of-heart, the house margarita is delicious. Top-shelf concoctions are also suggested on the menu, but in my opinion not necessary as the house 'rita can carry the day. The atmosphere at this location is come-as-you-are. Beachy decor adorns the walls, tables are somewhat close together and it can get a bit loud, but not so loud that you can't converse easily with your dinner partners. There is usually a wait for dinner but don't be discouraged; for us the wait time has always been much shorter than they told us on arrival (last night we were told 20-25 minutes. By the time the bartender handed me our pre-dinner 'ritas, the host was seating us). We have visited now countless times. Reliable, good, affordable, and fun. You can't go wrong here. read more

GREAT MARGARITAS. And strong. Perfect for me. They are roughly $10 each but well worth it. I ordered the brisket enchiladas and the meat was pretty juicy and a good portion. It comes with black beans (excellent) and rice. We also ordered Dino's plate and it was a good amount. It's a chicken and a brisket enchilada with this sphere like tortilla with beef and lettuce/tomato. Also comes with Pinto beans and tomato rice. I would come back mainly for the margarita! read more

The margaritas here are the best I've had in the area. I had the brisket tacos; they were very good and the meat was extremely tender. The rice and beans were typical, but their queso is outstanding. read more

Baja has a great ceviche and their Jenifer's Enchiladas are a favorite for our family. The sauce is creamy and tasty and it is topped with the freshest zucchini and mushrooms I have had at a restaurant. The Margarita's are great, but I am not too sure if they are worth the $8.50 they charge for them. Service is friendly and crazy fast so, even if you see a long line, once you are seated... they can get your meal out really quick. read more

I had dinner at this place just last night and I really liked it. I ordered the Shrimp Enchilada's (blackened shrimp in a sour cream sauce) and they were fantastic! Had a couple of their margarita's which were also really good. The place was pretty crowded and there were several good sized parties there. A couple of the tables had people celebrating birthday's so the staff came out banging on an empty bucket with a spatula to embarrass the patron, but all in good fun. Then, the mother of one of the girls at the table next to mine took the bucket and spatula and was trying to recruit people to follow her on a conga line. LOL! No one joined her so she ended up doing a one-person trip around the restaurant. Great food, great drinks, fun people. read more

Foos is bomb af!!!! And the margaritas were STRONG!! (HOW I LIKE THEM THO) and the service was super fast, ill be coming here more often

It is a little loud on the weekend but the food is always good. I love the beef fajitas and my daughter loves the ceviche.

I love this place! I love taking people there for a fun sit down dinner. The Mahi-Mahi bear battered fish tacos are to die for! The Ceviche is impressive considering some would call this place a-hole-in-the-wall. I've never been in there when it wasn't busy. The margaritas: they need a paragraph of their own! The Margaritas: There are a lot to choose from, I just get the orginal on the rocks with salt, and drinking two of them?...I'll just put it this way, you best eat, if you're going to drink a margarita there! Their staff is friendly, and isn't ALWAYS the best at service, but there is so many of them in a small space, that you can flag someone down if you really need to! I've found that since they opened this location in Keller their is a wait almost every Friday and Saturday night, but it's never unreasonable. It's kind of hard to get to because you have a lot of lights and traffic right there during rush hour, and it's surrounded by large shopping centers, the parking lot is small, and that's why it get's 4 stars, but the food is good. I wouldn't call it Tex-Mex, as most of the signature dishes seem to be more Cali inspired, but most people wouldn't be able to point that out. This food makes you feel good, and the atmosphere makes you feel happy. I highly recommend it! read more

This is the only restaurant in Keller and in most cities that I'll enthusiastically order a margarita. Seriously, order one. Their bartender here is generous and knows how to make a delicious drink. The food is amazing. Get table side guac to share with your table. Bacon wrapped shrimp if you're really hungry. The shrimp cocktail appetizer if you're wanting something light and/or it's just hot outside. The brisket tacos are so savory. Just try everything. The service is amazing, especially for how busy they often are. read more

Been waiting to try Baja Cantina for some time now. Read the reviews and knew my wife and I would like it. We just went and were not disappointed. The service was excellent and the food was awesome. I had the brisket taco, enchilada and tamale combo and it was delicious. The tamale was the best I've ever had. My wife loved the food as well. The margaritas are some of the best you will find. If you haven't tried Baja Cantina you should. This will be one of our new favorites. read more

Never eating here again. Went in on a Tuesday and we ordered tacos because they had taco Tuesday. Well guess what! They cancelled it and didn't bother to tell us and charged us for the full price menu. Then we ordered margaritas and he brought them out to us. After we finished them the bartender asked us why we didn't get happy hour margaritas and we said we didn't know it was happy hour still. You think the server would have told us but he didn't. Also they got rid of their hot salsa so the salsa is bland now. We used to love this place but you can tell the divorce is bringing it down and they are knickle and dimeing the customers. read more
