This is a small spot with plenty of tables, though there are no restrooms available. They do have a nice self-serve station with salsas, lemons, and pickled onions, plus daily deals posted outside. When we visited, it was pretty quiet--only one other customer was there. We ordered an asada torta and a shrimp burrito, and the food came out quickly (about 8 minutes), which was a plus. I'll be honest--the torta threw me off a bit. It had ham in it, which I wasn't expecting, and the flavor just felt a little unusual to me. I'm used to pastor having that classic red color and flavor, so this one didn't quite match what I had in mind. Overall, it was a fast and convenient stop, but the food didn't fully hit the mark for me personally. read more

This place never disappoints! So glad I have a great taco spot near my work...or that may be dangerous.. Their quality is always outstanding and their service is quick, informative, and efficient. They have a system that works and a flow that they've nailed out, especially during lunch rushes. You can tell people make this place a regular spot because sometimes I'll see customers come in and the cashiers and/or cooks immediately smile and greet them with a great welcoming. Love this spot read more

Baja Mar Taco - Updated prices - Mexican Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

This recommendation comes from my friend Dom, who isn't on Yelp, so I can't give him proper credit. I always ask my local friends for hidden gems, and this place definitely fits the bill. I love fish tacos, and while I used to go to a popular spot in El Monte, Dom always raves about Baja Mar and told me to come here instead. I finally made it, and I'm so glad I did! I ordered five tacos - yes, I know, but I can't resist good tacos! Being there on a Monday, I took advantage of the $1.69 shrimp tacos special. I ordered two shrimp tacos, two fish tacos ($3.30 each), and one Papa Taco ($2.40). Overall, all the tacos were good. The shrimp tacos were a bit heavy on the batter for my taste, but they were still pretty good, especially at that price. I wouldn't order them again unless they're on special. The Papa Taco was unique, featuring a crunchy shell with a mashed potato, cheese, lettuce, and tomato filling - it was pretty good. The fish tacos were the best of the bunch, with a nice batter and flaky fish. I would order them again.I appreciate that each taco order comes with a pepper on the side; it has a nice, subtle spice that kicks in at the end. I also like the salsa bar with fresh red and green salsas, pickled onions, and limes. However, the small cups for the salsa slow down the process. While I understand the desire to reduce waste, filling so many little containers to get enough salsa for your tacos creates a line at the salsa bar.Also, there are no napkins on the tables. I spilled salsa on my fingers while using the tiny containers, and I couldn't find any after searching the restaurant. It seems they only provide napkins with the food. I observed other customers asking for extra napkins, and it's quite inconvenient to not have them readily available. The tacos were excellent, so I ordered a to-go order of four - two shrimp and two fish. I appreciate that they package the tacos well with foil, and they were neatly arranged in the bag. However, I was disappointed to find no peppers included, especially since I had 3 peppers with a previous order of 5 tacos. I would have expected at least two peppers with my order of four.Because of a mix-up with the peppers and the lack of napkins, I'd rate it a 4 out of 5. I felt they were a bit stingy with the napkins and salsa. I was a little disappointed with that. However, I will definitely be back in the future, but I'll bring my own napkins or baby wipes and check the bag before leaving. read more

The food comes out fresh! The two taco plate, you can mix or match any meat or fish. It comes with a drink! Soft drink or Fresca! My favorite is the cucumber! It's not overly sweet and you can taste the cucumber. Not like some other spot, they do not include Fresca with your meal. It comes as a separate charge. So this is a plus for me! Jaiva Tostada is always good. Everything is a 5/5. read more

Updating to let everyone know that their salsa cups are the TINIEST sizes ever. I brought in a bigger container to fill for a large group order (almost 20 tacos) and I was reprimanded and asked to use the tiny containers. I had to fill each sauce cup (about 20 total) and held up the entire self serve bar during prime lunch rush hour. This was really inconvenient and left me scolded for trying to fulfill my order. I understand salsa being limited, however, for large group orders, there should be a much bigger container to accommodate the group. Baja mar is not good for groups. read more

Baja Mar Taco - 2 taco combo - Mexican Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

I haven't been here for a while but good remans the same. I got a burrito de Cameron enchilado and it was delicious, every bite had a shrimp or 2, it did fall apart since it was so big, but that was ok because I ended eating it with the fork! My hubby got cocktail de Cameron and the flavor is so GOOD and had ALOT of shrimp as well. We also ordered the tacos de Camerones empanados and they were ok, that's why a 4. The employees were very nice and quick, it was fairly quiet at the time we went, 12:30 and not a lot of people. I heard a lot of people ordering tacos de asada, I will be back to try those. read more

Stumbled across this place on my way to another place I was heading and had to try it. Don't let the looks deceive you! Good service and clean inside. I ordered a battered fish taco fully loaded, a chicken tostada, and a half order of beans and rice. They included a jalapeño toreado and had a green and red salsa bar with sliced lemons and pickled onions. The fish taco was absolutely amazing!!! Comparable if not better than La Bufadora and Taco Nazo. Yes it was that good! The tostada was okay and their salsas could use some work. The beans were good but the rice was really good. That fish taco though!!! Going back with the family to sample some of their other seafood delights and of of course their fish tacos! read more

Can't beat $1.69 fish taco Wednesdays! The portion are large, service is friendly, and most importantly it's delicious! The only thing is that the place is small so if you do have a larger group, you may want to consider ordering to go! read more

A friend ordered takeout for a gathering on 5/25/25 for dinner so I can't speak to the service or the ambience. However, I ordered the camaron burrito (I specifically said "grilled shrimp" because I saw that on Yelp), and was surprised to see the shrimp fried + battered inside. I was expecting the same shrimp that were on their signature nachos. I'm not a huge fan of fried food so luckily my friend who got a Al Pastor burrito was willing to swap with me. The Al Pastor burrito was significantly smaller than the shrimp burrito and tasted ok. Tastewise, the nachos really stole the show. read more

1st time coming here on a Thursday which they had a Burrito special $7.99 each burrito with a can soda . Which I thought not a Bad deal . Excellent customer service & friendly atmosphere !! Kitchen very clean & everyone working with clean uniforms & gloves !! I order a carne Asada burrito 4 rid of& Al Pastor burrito 3 rated them. I felt like the Al Pastor needed to taste more like Al Pastor Flavor and the Asada was great the beans on both of the burritos needed more Lard or flavored so they can be perfect . Good beans will Make the Burrito Shine despite the type meat !! Over all I grave them a 8 out of 10. Will I come back Yes ! Place was clean & eclxcelkeht customer service .. they just need to improve on the taste of the beans & the mean . Got to try the fish tacos and other items next time . You won't be disappointed . Self served salsa bar & pickled onions really good ! Thank you guys for the excellent customer service see y'all soon ! read more

This is a hidden gem in Pico Rivera. We tried the shrimp cocktail and the fish tacos. They were delicious. We also tried the agua fresca.. The habiscus water was way too sweet, but the cucumber lemon was just right. If you are looking for a quick bite that is easy on the pocket and good, give this place a try. read more

Trying this spot my daughter has been telling us about. They have a friendly service and good prices. It's a chill spot kinda hidden in a small shopping center like by papa John's. Everything was really good. They flavor was on point good portions to get full on. I ordered one taco to many my only complain would be the potato taco the potato needed a pinch more salt but with the green salsa and everything The asada had a good carbon taste In it it was stacked with meat sadly didn't make the picture because I forgot I ordered it The last thing was the shrimp cocktail.... wow full of flavor big and plumpy shrimps that were soft no need to add anything unless you wanted spicy. Will definitely be back. So glad they are nearby. read more

There Wednesday $1.69 fish tacos were fantastic. They have a small salsa bar with red and green salsa but beware because they're both spicy. I ordered extra cream on mine but was charged $1.00 for it. No problem... But honestly it doesn't need it they already give it a healthy amount. read more

Great food good service great prices always good choice ! Perfect for takeout or a quick sit down can't go wrong.

We enjoy Baja Mar taco. Noticed the girl taking the orders was not friendly with elderly customers, almost rude when told, "Thank you", didn't even respond to the customer. Spoke to another customer in Spanish, when the customer spoke English, and continued to speak Spanish. A taller male working in the back was making faces at the customer's and shrugging his shoulders as if he didn't care if the waiting customers got their orders. Very disappointing, disrespectful, and unprofessional staff working. read more

Easily the best fish and shrimp tacos I've had in Los Angeles. Couldn't believe how fresh and good they were. Portion size is massive and their salsa is second to none.

Those days where it's hot as fuck, you've been running errands all day, haven't eaten anything, and want something to ease all that: fish tacos. Get a set of 3, let that lemon rain and on goes the salsa. You'd be enjoying a gourmet meal right under the ceiling fans of a busting taco shop. Take it to your car, lay everything out on your dash, roll all the windows down, crank up your music, and just let the stress melt away with every bite. Enjoy the sunny sunset and appreciate thing simple things in life. Really good fish tacos. A crunchy batter that stays that way with a well-sized fish. It's a lot of food for one taco, and they be using medium tortillas too. Try it Taco Wednesday Damn the taco de camaron enchilado is the shit. I haven't eaten so much shrimp on one tortilla. I'm not sure whether you can et this elsewhere. Shrimp with cheese and a bit of chili is something else, pls try. Even the cabeza is something beyond just a seafood spot; it's succulent, velvety soft, and most important of all is it can top some of the near countless taco stands/trucks I've enjoyed. They know the flavor that people want, and for a great price; this is a rarity nowadays since every restaurants and businesses are taking advantage of 'inflation' (which is only 7%) and higher gas prices (up 25%) to justify a massive increase in price. This is the spot for some Mexican seafood despite looking lowkey. read more

The food is very good, my favorite are the big fish tacos they have on Wednesday for $1.50. coctelitos are good too for $5.00. I think they are both Great deal! The only thing I did not like, is the older man working at the register, he is very rude and impatient, if your order is wrong on the monitor and you try to correct him, he will come back to you with attitude and an argument, so watch out for this man and now what you want, before you get to the register and you may have a good visit read more
