    I guesses as the last Baja fresh in the area they get to do whatever they want, including refuse to take orders in-person. You are met with a scan code to order. If you decide to stand there a while in case they'll come help anyway, they will come over to double down, and point to the sign and tell you that's the only way they're taking orders. Forget about asking questions or needing any modifications. Also apparently they now make their Pico de Gallo hot instead of mild at this location? See photo.

    Burrito

    Definition of subpar. Chips were slightly stale, salsas lacked flavor, and even the steak was meh. The establishment was clean and the workers were kind, but the food wasn't good. If I was forced to come back, I'd try a bowl instead of a burrito; most likely, I won't ever come back.

    Restroom sink Baja fresh has designated this for their customers

    Visited Baja Fresh today. Although the food is very tasty I will not be returning to this particular store. The restroom that they designate for the public was so dirty. It was so dirty. I didn't even want to wash my hands in it. It's obviously been neglected for a very long time! It's dusty! Everything has a film of dirt! The toilet bowl has mold growing in it from lack of cleaning. I'm sure Baja Franchise would be very disappointed to see their company name attached to such a poorly kept store. I sure hope this particular store can take this horrible review and make necessary upgrades. I do believe the customers from Los Gatos would greatly appreciate and show their support.

    Salsa Bar and Outdoor sitting under redwoods are the two best things here. Service was okay, Chicken tostada was good. Nachos were good too. Veggie quesadilla was a bit oily and extra soggy.

    To go on Friday

    Baja Fresh location is convenient for Los Gatos as it is close to the 17 and 85 freeways. ------ One star ----- I ordered on a Friday at 1300 so the parking lot was full and I had to circle the whole lot one time to find an open parking spot. The restaurant was clean and the staff member who took my order met the minimum expectations. (It's 2025. There is no customer service expectation anymore - I don't expect to be greeted with friendly salutations, I don't expect polite, professional customer service conduct and I don't expect stellar amicable customer service anymore and I was met with what I expected.) I don't fault the staff member, this is the norm today and in Baja Fresh Los Gatos. Food ordered Chicken nachos - the chips were thin chips - chicken was very sparse, I could count the 1cm X 1 cm pièces of chicken and at best there were 10 of them. The guacamole was there, nothing flavorful, but it was there. The diced tomatoes simply lacked any taste to the dish. Pork carnitas ultimate burrito. I wish I just hadn't ordered this, it was all very below average with regards to taste. Chips with cheese, guacamole and salsa. This was another regret and made me wish I had gone to the Taco Bell drive thru as I originally planned. For me, this is the last time I will choose Baja Fresh for any "Mexican" food craving. If you want Mexican "adjacent" food, Baja Fresh is an option for you.

We've tried their fish, carnitas, and birria tacos - all of which were amazing, though the birria and fish tacos were the clear standouts. The mango paired with the crispy fish is a true winner & you can't beat the ultimate comfort food of the birria taco. The presentation of the food is also stunning, with dishes served beautifully on black slate plates and mini cast-iron pans. I have to give a special shout-out to the chef: this is officially the only restaurant where I have actually finished the accompanying sides of refried beans and rice. They were absolutely outstanding! If you haven't been to Hercules yet, it is a must-visit. Don't miss out on their great drinks either--the hibiscus margarita is highly recommended!

We started with the queso fundido which was smaller than I expected but very good! For entrees we tried the quesabirria and fish tacos. The birria taco may have been my favorite bite! Delicious!! The enchiladas trio was also well executed. Tried the TJ Caesar Salad, the tamales and the chips and guac. The guac was another star, but the tamales were probably my next favorite bite. I would recommend trying 1 of each of the flavors. All were good and the sweet corn tamale was a surprise hit!! Would definitely come back here again!

As always the place was clean, and the staff was friendly, and the food wasn't gross or anything, but it was completely lacking in any flavor. I mean the shredded beef had ZERO spice to it. It used to be just right. The guacamole and pico were also super bland. I mean I am talking I was worried I'd come down with COVID when we left, because nothing tasted seasoned or spicy. (I checked, I was fine and healthy) It was well cooked, the plate was well arranged, it looked like it had been prepared with care, but there just no flavor to it. So I am sad that what used to be the best shredded beef chimichanga, is no longer any good. The prices seemed to have gone up (which I get is just a thing that is happening now, because of you know) but we liked them enough that that would not have stopped us coming back if the food had literally had any spice to it at all. But for what they are charging now, I need the food to taste like what it should.

The ladies who work at this restaurant are all very nice and they tolerate me sitting with my headphones and laptop, never begrudging me refills on coffee. I once ordered the Caldo and it was a nice experience and generously portioned, but it isn't good study food! I love to order Sopes and a large side of refried beans here. The Sopes are really nicely presented and delicious, piled high with pico de gallo, avocado, sour cream and cotija on top of the beans and meat. So good! I ordered the vegetable enchiladas suizas here once. They were ok, but I like spicier enchiladas. This restaurant has pretty solid and authentic food and wonderful service. I am a regular customer and I only hope that I tip them well enough to compensate them for the table time and coffee refills!

    Serenity via Sangria!…read more Is it possible to reach a level of enlightenment or serenity via a Sangria? Well, your intrepid Yelp reviewer made it his mission to find out. I sacrificed an afternoon to this endeavor recently. The answer is a definitive yes! Sangrias lead to serenity here at Telefèric Barcelona in Los Gatos. A beautiful setting and outstanding staff makes this 'spiritual sangria journey' all the more special. I tried the Telefèric Sangria and its dark subtle flavor was tasty. Very relaxing atmosphere as well. Try the small shop inside for the unique items on sale that will accentuate your at home meals. Expand your taste buds and experiment.

This location has its own parking lot, but it's often full, but there's a lot of free street parking around too. Very large indoor dining area and they have outdoor umbrella covered tables too for al fresco dining. We tried: CRAB CROQUETAS: great with a satisfyingly crunchy outer shell. WAGYU EMPANADAS: small but packed with flavor with a nice crunch. PULPO TELEFERIC: a hearty octopus tentacle, high on flavor, might've even been marinated before being grilled. But a little dry. MEDITERRANEAN FRESH TUNA SALAD: nice bright flavors with thinly sliced seared tuna. Portions are generally small and with the premium prices, your bill can add up fast. But this place is pretty unique and great for groups or special occasions. The flavors of each dish are also fairly unique and you know each one will come out freshly made.
