    Steak fajita plate
    Sam K.

    After checking out of hotel in the Excalibur resort, I stopped by for a quick Mexican food lunch to beat some of the exorbitant prices at the airport. I ordered the steak fajita plate and thought for the price (under $20) and for the taste (not to mention it comes with some tortilla chips which you have a selection of over 4 salsas you can pair with at the self-serve counter) this was an excellent meal! Service was fairly quick and has same layout as most burrito/texmex places like Chipotle. The servers and cashiers were cordial and there was plenty of seating around.

    Kids meals with a fork for apple sauce

    Late Saturday Night after an event that took place at the MGM. There weren't many options open or with food. Each place I visited had no food but we're still open! No I don't want to buy just biscuits! Are you serious!? Baja Fresh was open and the crew worked to get food out. Kudos to the team. Appreciate it! I didn't have a problem with my meal. In fact I bought two burritos and a kids meal with drinks. $50 seems like a lot but when nothing else around has food... I had to pick my poison. Sleep hungry or fill up and empty my wallet lol. I had two problems, which is why I docked them two stars... Kids meals were to come with apple slices but they subbed apple sauce and they don't have spoon! Either have my son try with a fork or use a straw so it isn't wasted and he gets some nutrients. Hmmm... The other problem was there were really no clean tables to eat at. I probably wouldn't eat here again.

    Food was delicious! Service wasn't great. The restaurant is inside of the Excalibur casino/food court. I personally can't stand the smoke inside, especially eating, so I took it to go. I ordered the tostada with shrimp for meat choice. I was suspicious about it because it was only $13.50. So yummy!!! Everything tasted so fresh, which made me very happy because that's exactly what I wanted. And it's in the name, so it better be! The shrimp had a lot of flavor. The tostada came with choice of meat, choice of beans, romaine, guacamole, cheese, and pico. I got no pico or tomatoes, but they have a salsa bar! I got mango salsa, and a black one that I forgot the name of. It's a medium salsa and I'm pretty sure it's made with black beans. They also had cilantro at the salad bar which added even more depth and flavor. The service wasn't friendly, and there was a particular employee helping me who didn't take one second to acknowledge me. She did not look at me and she was talking to her co-worker the whole time. At least she listened to me when I said no pico or tomatoes tho then I asked her about salsa and she quickly said something I didn't understand. Then I asked the third employee what she said, and she pointed me to the salsa bar! They also didn't even have water cups, but I guess that's not the employees fault... Once I tried the food I completely forgot about the bad service and would go back again.

    A Tuesday evening around 6:30 pm. Not too crowded. Located in a busy Casino. The food tasted fresh. The salsa bar was clean. The burrito was pretty good. I would go back.

    My husband absolutely loves Baja Fresh! We used to have some in Salt Lake City but they closed up. So every time we come to Vegas, he has to stop in and get his favorite burrito. This time he said it wasn't as good as usual. But it was still good. Just not amazing. I got chicken quesadillas and wasn't all that impressed. It tasted like a cheese quesadilla with a piece or two of chicken. And it was kind of soggy. I prefer my quesadillas with a little crunch on the outside. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't my favorite. He will be back many times. I'm sure.

    Came here for a late lunch on a Monday (labor day). There was no wait, no line, and plenty of seating available. We ordered a steak and shrimp burrito, and a steak and shrimp quesadilla. The way they prepared the quesadilla was kind of strange... they grilled it with just the cheese then put the toppings (steak, shrimp, veggies) inside, which were cooked separately. Plus, it wasn't grilled well, still pretty soft. But I didn't mind cuz it tasted so good. The flavors/ seasoning of the steak and shrimp are so amazing at Baja Fresh. The reason I took off stars was the employee making our food either didn't understand English very well, or was a worker in training and not very bright. She seemed to be very lost when given very simple instructions. Also, they charge extra for every single addition, ie. I wanted veggies in my quesadilla so that was an added cost. Still love Baja Fresh (it really does taste fresh even when it's not), and it's great to have one at Excalibur.

    More like Baja Not-So Fresh. Don't waste your time and money here. I was excited to see a Baja Fresh nearby as we used to have an amazing one near us in FL and it closed. So we walked down to the Excaliber to this location. Upon entering the line my fiancé and I both noticed three huge overfilled containers of precooked and uncovered grilled chicken just sitting behind the workers. It was horrifying so of course we decided to get something other than chicken. He ordered the steak burrito and i opted for the wahoo tacos because I knew most likely that required cooking, which it did. The workers were the absolute rudest trio I have ever encountered. The one taking orders would ask my fiancé what he wanted and then turn her head and look off at something else. By the time we were through the line we both had given our orders THREE times each!! When we were checking out I asked the lady if we could have fresh chips because she put all the broken chips in our bag and instead of saying "sure" she said "It's the same thing" and refused. No it is not the same...half the chips were crushed into pieces. The salsa bar was closed. I had to ask her twice for salsa. And of course they had no mango salsa. The food was not great either. It was bland and mostly unedible. My wahoo tacos had 3 small pieces of fish in them each...hence all the cheese to cover it. Overall horrendous experience. Keep walking to better options...too much good food nearby to waste on terrible customer service and mediocre food.

    The food was so good the first time we had dinner here the night before, we're back for a late night snack since we haven't eaten since brunch. Last night we had a baja salad with steak, baja salad with carnitas, a americano style taco with carnitas, and grilled shrimp taco on corn tortilla. The steak was a bit dry, the carnitas was juicy and flavorful, and the shrimp was awesome. The pico de gallo on the salad was outstanding. The free chips that came with each taco was flavorless. It should have came with a very small salsa for dipping. The tables are socially distanced but no one has time to clean them. They should at least have a tub of wipes for the patrons to do themselves. I had to ask for napkins then use the hand sanitizer from the stand to clean our table. Tonight we are trying the quesadillas that we didn't see last night. Update to follow...

    Baja bowl with steak
    erhan y.

    Maybe it was because I was starving but my Baja steak bowl tasted so good. Steak was tender and well seasoned. It was also a little crispy on the outside. Just like I prefer. Greens were fresh and salsa was flavorful. Food came with chips and salsa. I can't say the chips were great but with enough salsa they were edible. Price was reasonable and there is ample seating spaced out enough to give you separation from other customers despite being an open concept type seating.

    Chicken Nachos
    Brandon S.

    If you're looking for quick & cheap (for Las Vegas standards) this is a good choice while staying at Excalibur. For those who haven't had Baja Fresh before it puts you in the mind of Chipotle. We both ordered chicken nachos. Wasn't much to choose from toppings wise, pinto or black beans, cheese, pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole. Once your chips or top of the chicken and beans and cheese, they put undef salamander to heat/melt and with both of our the chips that weren't covered in cheese got burnt. Besides the burnt chips, everything tasted pretty good & fresh. Good value for your buck, so would try again if hungry in Excalibur.

    Two taco combo, Baja Style with pinto beans. The mango salsa is great.

    Restaurant is closed/ looks like it's being remodeled. We went into the website and advertised that it was open, so our walk was useless.

I wish I had asked his name but the receipt says "cashier Bryan" so I'm not sure that is his name. He worked Sunday night and we were there about 5:30-7:30.

Our salsa was constantly filled, water always available, and asked if we needed anything else at just the right times. It was a great experience and I would say it was thanks to him. The ambiance is amazing and there's something lovely to look at all the time. Even though the casino is right outside and you can see it, I think it adds to the liveliness of the atmosphere.

The elegant, low-light atmosphere creates an intimate setting, making it an ideal spot for a romantic date. The journey begins with their delectable and spicy salsa and chips. These are a must-try for spice enthusiasts, especially those who can handle habanero chili. Don't miss out on their mouthwatering guacamole as a side dish. An amazing appetizer is the Shrimp Empanadas! Truly, the best empanadas we've ever had. Combining this with their fresh guacamole takes this plate to the next level. BEST DRINK = BLACK MAMBA! For seafood lovers, their Camarones Al Mojo De Ajo is a must-order. It features four large king-size shrimp cooked in their flavorful garlic butter sauce. If you're feeling peckish, their Polvo Asado is an absolute delight. The chicken breast appears to have been marinated for an extended period, resulting in a tender and incredibly delicious dish. I complemented it with grilled onions and chilis, and the side of pinto beans (frijoles) was equally impressive. I also very much enjoyed their Shrimp Enchiladas! They are filled with a generous portion of shrimp and their fresh guacamole green sauce is very delicious. Not spicy but rich in flavor. Another standout dish is their Cabo Azul. This plate is a feast for the senses, featuring a Maine Lobster Enchilada, a chile stuffed with shrimp and crab, and a shrimp taco. Be prepared to be hungry after indulging in this culinary masterpiece. For dessert, indulge in their renowned Pastel De Guayaba (Guayaba Cheesecake). It's a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth.

I liked the salsas they included though the tacos didn't need it. The blue and yellow corn tortillas were good, but just a touch drier than I would have liked. The ribeye asado had the least flavor of all the tacos and the meat was a bit dry but was still decent. The lamb was good, but also a little dry. The birria and barbacoa were delicious and I would definitely order them again. If you are starving I recommend ordering 4 tacos (I probably could have eaten 5 as I was ready to chew off my own arm, order 3 if you are not a big eater or just normal hungry).
