Baja Mar Fish Taco - Two fish tacos with red chili sauce. - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

How can you not like $1 fish tacos? This place has a daily rotating special to fit your budget! From fish tacos to asada and more, I recommend you keep your eyes peeled or give them a call to see what specials they have that day. For Wednesday, I ordered a handful of fish tacos for my husband and I. They were a little bit smaller than competitors, but again for the price, you cannot beat it. They're tasty, they're filling, and above all, they're cheap! Call in advance so you don't waste time waiting for your order. My order took about 10 minutes from phone call to pick-up, so it was a breeze. I'll be coming back for more fish tacos! read more

They had better service last time I went and the limes were fresh. Previously the guy at the front helping out had given my wife attitude after she had asked for fresher limes. read more

Baja Mar Fish Taco - Tacos where mediocre - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

The food is good but was turned off when two employees that were touching the food with gloves on and off were also touching other things including cash. It pretty much turned me off to going back. No they didn't wash or change the gloves. read more

Tasty, cheap, fast, and homey. My favorite was the al pastor taco - get these, they are a solid cut above the rest! The fish tacos were solid, but a little skimpy on the fish and heavy on the batter. The shrimp, carne asada, and birria were also solid and rounded out the meal. Our order came with chips and salsa which was a nice touch. If you're looking for a place to eat outdoors, the library park is only a few blocks away. read more

The best potato tacos!!! I've tried many other places and this place takes the trophy in my opinion. And every Tuesday potato tacos are 2 for $1!!! read more

You can't beat the specials , absolutely good food , I'm here at least 3 times a week

I did not try the fish tacos, but I did order an al pastor and asada burrito, and chicken enchiladas. The burrito was edible, but the asada meat was very salty and flavorless. I was charged for guacamole, but they barely put anything in my burrito. I'd also asked for extra onions and cilantro, but it didn't look like they added any extra. The enchiladas were okay. My first time here, last time back ...no thanks! read more

The place is hidden I almost went to the other taco place in the corner. We got the al pastor tacos Wednesday night special for the first time. They are more like street tacos small. They give you peppers and grilled onions. I will be back to try the fish tacos. read more

Excellent food and service! Tacos are the BEST! Try the nightly specials! I come here at least once or twice a month!

The locals like: Supporting local businesses 99 cent daily taco specials Service Potato tacos are crispy and kind of amazing unless you're avoiding carbs TWO FOR A DOLLAR #tacotuesday Fish tacos for a dollar are good, sometimes the fish to batter ratio is a bit off but FISH TACOS ARE A DOLLAR ON WEDNESDAYS (and Sundays) I can see why ppl comment the food seems to lack seasoning, especially if you like salt. I can taste salt on the chips but the focus is clearly on the supporting role of the condiments. What, you don't know how to use a salt shaker? Salsa roja Salsa verde Pico de Gallo Lime Roasted onion and jalapeño Don't hate, appreciate! Haha read more

This place is usually good but for god sakes do the have stock in an onion farm. Every time I place an order no onion and they get it wrong every time. I need to consider another place if they can't start getting it right read more

Baja Mar Fish Taco FISH TACOS are life! I woke up yesterday feigning for it probably because of a dream. This place is located above Old town Monrovia which is only a few minutes from my place of residence. Let's break it down: Lunch Specials Mon-Fri 11 am - 3 pm ONLY $6.49 Here are the specials for different tacos ONLY 99 cents each day of the week!! Monday - Carne Asada Tacos Tuesday - 2 tacos de papa Wednesday - Fish Tacos Thursday - Al Pastor Tacos Friday - Chicken Tacos Saturday - Shrimp Tacos Sunday - Fish Tacos I had their fish tacos and carne asada tacos. Their fish tacos are BOMB, but their carne asada tacos unfortunately were...meh...mas o menos. Mediocre. Much better quality elsewhere for those. I would go full fish here and order like 10 of these bad boys for only 99 cents on a Wednesday or Sunday. It's not a perfect score as well because the quality of the red and green sauce at the sauce bar was watery and no bueno. Their chips and salsa are very basic so don't expect much from that when dining in. Final Score 4.0 - Fish Tacos, Good price, GET IT! I will be back. read more

They have daily taco specials. We usually hit them up for their fish tacos and they are pretty tasty, can't beat the price. The employees are always friendly. This spot has the best horchata. I mean, I usually get a small elsewhere and here, I get the large and can't stop chugging it...it's so good. read more

You get what you paid for, would go to another Mexican place Meh - salsa, not really that great on salty side - fish taco, pretty standard, sauce on it was too creamy - rice and beans - standard Didn't like - flauta, it's deep fried flour, while I was used to deep fried corn tortilla, would get tacquito next time read more

My family has been going here for years! Great food, great service & great location. Alex is the best. 10/10 recommended

Baja Mar Fish Taco - Weekly Specials, .99 all week. - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

This was a wonderful surprise. Los Angeles has no shortage of taco options. Baja Mar stands out by offering $0.99 daily taco specials - different day, different taco! These fish tacos are some of the best I've had so far. Most fish tacos are either too heavy on the breading or not fried well enough to get a crisp. Not these tacos. Lightly breaded and well fried for an airy yet crispy texture, served over two small tortillas per taco with plenty of fresh chopped veggies on top. Each table also had lots of El Yucateco for that extra kick. Complimentary chips and salsa makes for a great meal at a price that's hard to beat. A true hole-in-the-wall hidden gem in every sense! read more

Great service and prices. My co-workers and I get their fish tacos a lot. It's quick and convenient.

This little hole in the wall has Excellent fish tacos at a good price. I will definitely eat here again

Best fried fish tacos in the Monrovia area, $1 a piece depending on the day this hole in the wall has been my favorite for years. Price & Service: 5 stars. Each day is a different $1 taco it can't be beat. Also if you wanna step your game up $7 goes a long way, two tacos, rice, and beans, you can't beat it now a days. Everyone that works here is beyond friendly and they hustle to get the food out. Always friendly. If you eat there they'll bring the food to your table along with complimentary chips & salsa. Great people. Food: 5 stars. My go to are their fried fish tacos. Yeah they are a little battery but I like my fried fish tacos that way. Otherwise I would just get them grilled but I come here for my cheat days. Super yummy. Also their shrimp cocktails are the BOMB. So fresh and large portions. I originally started coming here just for this but the tacos won me over as a loyal long term customer. Give this place your business, they deserve it. read more

2.5 Stars Fish Taco Review My friend at work and I have been on a serious taco binge for the past 6 weeks. (we rotate between tacos and dumplings lol) They are cheap and delicious, especially if you find a place with $1 tacos. Baja Mar Fish Tacos were not really "fish" tacos at all. We came in on Wednesday 2/26/14 around 12:20PM. The entire place was filled up, but it looked like we had just come in at the tail end of the lunch rush. The small plaza (with Sakura Sushi House and a Laundromat ) is on the north side of Foothill Blvd just east of Myrtle Ave and Ivy Avenue. There's a small parking lot. Two fish tacos came out to $2.18 with tax. The provide you with free chips & salsa. Nice! The staff will bring your plate to you if you dine in. Wow, the tacos looked huge! I bit into one and it was hot and crispy. However, once I continued to eat, my coworker pointed out that the inside of my taco was yellow. So upon inspection it was like eating an inch thick of just batter. ALL the tacos were like that, just fried batter. What little fish we did taste, wasn't the freshest to say the least and the white sauce on it didn't have much flavor either. If you have "fish taco" in your name, then I would expect them to be top notch. My other coworker ordered carne asada nachos which came with sour cream and guacamole. When they brought it out, the chips were burnt and the meat was dry. With Tacos Ensenada so close (on Huntington Drive in Duarte), it doesn't look like we'll be coming back to Baja Mar for Fish tacos anymore. Tacos Ensenada also has $1 fish tacos (on Tuesdays). My other go to place for fish tacos is Taco Nazo (closest one is in Azusa). 38/100 Reviews for 2014 read more

Baja Mar Fish Taco - $2.18 including tax for 2 fish tacos ($1 Fish Tacos on on Wednesdays) - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

Solid 3 stars for Baja Mar Fish Taco! :) They have a daily special for $1 tacos. I didn't see it when I visited, but noticed it on the receipt afterwards. Refer to http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/SN1Vo1sFERNPlwqW_e-Diw?select=4HXr02XKkXbM63z2DkhrUQ Tacos - 3/5 - when I ordered a fish taco on a Sunday, it didn't look like this picture http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/SN1Vo1sFERNPlwqW_e-Diw?select=lVQps4SVLWK57pkfcA_RRA - it looked like this http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/SN1Vo1sFERNPlwqW_e-Diw?select=OnbjbsPc776_E1-32qwbtQ (top left corner) Sope - 3/5 - the shell was crunchy and the toppings were decent - the lettuce (instead of the cabbage) wasn't the freshest quality Salsa Bar - 3.5/5 - both red and green salsa selections were great! The red salsa had a roasted taste :) - the marinated carrots and peppers were super sour (equivalent to something you would have at Tops or Jim's) Pro tip: order your food to go if you can't stand the smell of laundromat next door; inside gets a bit stuffy too Oh and they do have outdoor seating, but it's two small tables outside. Again, you may not like the smell of laundromat! read more

Baja Mar Fish Taco - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

I continue to love Baja Mar. My new favorite is their shrimp cocktail. Very diet friendly. Sort of a cold gazpacho stuffed with large shrimps. Yummola!!! read more

This place is not bad. We waited 15-20 minutes for 5 fish tacos on a Sunday. For a light lunch, 2-3 tacos will fill you right up. The pieces of fish are just about as big as the taco, but I think they had a bit too much batter for me. There is a strong fish taste with the fish itself and the crema. A bag of tortilla chips and a couple of containers of red and green salsas were included. The salsas were nothing special, they weren't very spicy and did not have much flavor to them either. read more

They aren't the best fish tacos in LA County but they are still very good overall with complimentary chips and good salsa how can you go wrong. I also ordered a potato taco which was very good too. read more

Baja Mar Fish Taco - Fish and potato taco - Mexican Near Me - Monrovia, California

They have specials everyday!!!! .99 tacos of various types like shrimp on saturdays, fish on wednesday and sundays. It's located in a little plaza in Monrovia. The shop itself is small but its a small mom and pop shop so its cute. The guy that helped us was nice. If you dine in they give you freshly made chips and salsa, which is why it gets 5 stars!!!! We got our tacos pretty quick and they have a salsa bar that you can help yourself too. I had their shrimp tacos which were pretty good, seeing as I've never had a shrimp taco before. The fish tacos were very good as well, comparable to la bufadora (my fish taco joint). Honestly you can't beat it for the price, its a steal. Its such a steal I walked out feeling like I robbed the place but the food was so good I didn't even feel guilty. Great price with delicious deals everyday AND complimentary chips and salsa yesssssssssss!!!!! read more

First time at Baja Mar. Good food and easy on your wallet. Great service! Will definitely return.

Just had their weekend aguachiles. It was delicious, not too spicy, just the perfect amount of kick to it. I will definitely be picking up more soon! read more

Fish taco Wednesday! While I don't really care for their fish tacos (crispy yellow batter with a small bit of fish) since they should be called fried batter tacos, their cabbage, white sauce and tomato was yummy! Too bad about the fish though since it is the main star here ... Now that I think about it, that's why I don't come here too often. Their shrimp taco was mostly batter as well with small shrimps. But they have a really good carne asada taco! A bit salty but it was not tough and they did give you a lot! Al pastor taco was just ok-- I always feel like very few places make amazing pastor. They were tiny pieces, dry and not as flavorful. Just salty. Chips and salsa were good since the tomato in the salsa was plentiful and was bursting with flavor! Don't forget the grilled peppers and onions! read more

Torn between 2 and 3 stars. I put 2 stars because 2 stars means "Meh. I've experienced better." +Located in small plaza with a parking lot. +Limited tables but seating available. +Free unlimited chips & salsa! I liked their salsa. :) +They also offer chilies and grilled onions that's kept warm in the warming tray. +$1 taco everyday. We went Sunday and it was $1 fish taco. +My enchilada was pretty good. Definitely tried better elsewhere but wouldn't mind eating the enchilada here if it was an option. However, it wouldn't be my first option. -Baja Mar Fish Taco sign isn't facing the main street so it can easily be missed. Be on a look out! -My boyfriend wasn't satisfied with his wet burrito. He says he definitely have tried better elsewhere. The burrito I think consisted of meat, rice, and beans. The meat was flavored but not the best flavoring. He needed to add lots of salsa in order to enjoy it. -Fish taco was disappointing like other yelp reviews. I liked the fact that the batter was crunchy compared to other fish tacos I've eaten but the fish taco consisted more of the batter instead of the actual fish. The tartar sauce also wasn't as good as Taco Nazo or Taco Ensenada that's nearby. I won't be coming back for their fish taco. I see potential in this mom & pop joint but I personally wouldn't be back. read more

Went there late one afternoon on a weekday and ordered a carne asada burrito truck style. I know, I know it's a Baja style fish taco place and I ordered a carne asada burrito. But you know - you can't go wrong with rice, beans, meat, cilantro and onion salsa. Well apparently you can do plenty wrong! First let's start with the burrito, it was about a foot long and its diameter was huge but it was filled with nothing but beans and very little meat which would okay because it will fill you up. Not to mention the burro was horribly wrapped and was falling apart after the first two bites. That's not truck style to me! But what makes a burrito good is balance and a good salsa. Their salsa tasted like it was Louisiana hot sauce mixed with tomato sauce from a can. Try it if you want, but it'll be my last time there. read more
