    Wandered into this little taco shop and it's solid! I had their baja breaded fish tacos and they were perfectly fried! Not oily at all! They were served piping hot with fresh cabbage and warm corn tortillas! The plate had beans and rice. Beans were OK, nothing exciting. Rice was good. I tried 3 of their salsas from their bar and was underwhelmed. The service was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was clean and had plenty of indoor seating for such a small place. Overall, I would definitely return.

    If your name is Baja Fish, customer expectations will naturally be high. While these tacos certainly look the part, the flavors are just okay. The creamy sauce tastes less Baja and more salad dressing. The corn tortillas were a bit stiff. It wouldn't take much for their tacos to be memorable. It just didn't happen on this visit.

    Tucson has some great taco joints, and Mr. Baja Fish is one of those places. The service was friendly, and we received our food quickly. I tried the fish, lengua, and shrimp tacos. All the tacos were solid, and the portions were very respectable. Each fish taco had two fried fish pieces with a nice, flaky interior and slaw piled on top. The salsa bar is basic but has all the standard fixings to elevate your taco experience. Mr. Baja Fish is a fantastic casual spot to satisfy your taco cravings. Protip: There are daily specials posted on signs on the walls!

    This little "order at the counter" restaurant is very clean and service is friendly. There's a salsa bar with 3 types of salsa, 2 creamy sauces, limes and cucumbers. We were given a plate of chips that were fresh and perfectly salted. Baja fish tacos are served piping hot, on delicious corn or flour tortillas that are light and tasty, and hold up for the life of the taco. The fish is crunchy and peppery and plentiful. Rice and beans are hot and a great accompaniment for a full meal. See you again soon Mr. Baja Fish!

    Great local Mom and Pop taco shop. Don't let the inconspicuous store facade fool you-great food awaits! We regularly do the ceviche, crispy tacos--both fish and shrimp--and just tried the taco salad. Everything is freshly made while you wait and delicious! The grilled items come with fajita like veggies--onion and bell peppers--while the crispy come with cabbage and tomato. A variety of sauces and toppings. The salad was HUGE and served up in a crispy flour tortilla bowl, loaded with whole beans, rice, lettuce and protein as well as guac and sour cream. You won't find anything like this at Rubio's!

    3 fish taco platter

    Great prices on Taco Tuesday for meat options only ($1.50/taco) makes for a good deal, but the tacos and flavor themselves were average. We ordered takeout and grabbed several meat tacos for the Tuesday special and the 3 taco platter with battered fish tacos so that we could try a variety. The platter comes with rice and beans which were on the saltier end for my taste but okay. My husband enjoyed the pollo tacos the most out of the bunch because of the char and flavor while the carne was a tad disappointing and needed a little more marinated flavor and the carnitas were average. I had the fish tacos which were standard (a little heavier on the breading than I like but still decent). Staff was friendly and the food was prepared quickly.

    Food was okay. Not much flavor as I was expecting. Shrimp was good portioned but the fish was very lightly portioned. Overall bland.

    I expected this place to replace Rubio's fish tacos. This place was far from it. I was charged $9.20 for two tacos. A fish taco and a shrimp taco. I gave the woman $20. I was expecting $10.80 in change. She reached into a designer bag and grabbed $10 and handed it to me and walked away. She totally kept the 80 cents. Not cool. So I stepped back wondering if she would give me the rest of my change. She ended up serving the next person. So that should tell you something about this place. As for the food, it was okay. The shrimp taco was loaded but strangely didn't have much flavor. No sauce or anything. The fish taco was barely loaded with fish. Very skimpy on the fish taco. They load it with bland veggies and pico to make you think it is a lot. Real Baja taco enthusiasts know this place is just another Filiberto's hiding behind the Baja Taco name. If you don't believe me... Go see for yourself. Hopefully this review will help them change their ways a little bit.

The interior is visually congested, not in a bad way but with lots of decor, seating, movement areas and etc. It makes a feeling of the space being busy and distracting. I prefer calmer spaces but it's not terrible. Service was prompt, frequent and wonderful. An older woman came by and asked how we wanted salsa and made us a bowl which was INCREDIBLE! So savory, spicy, fresh and left me wanting more. (You get a certain amount salsa and chips per person than you gotta pay). It was literally perfect. We weren't super hungry and wanted to share, to us the serving was more than enough for two. We enjoyed a house rocks margarita, grilled steak fajitas with rice and beans, sides of sour cream and guacamole and also some chips and salsa. It was all very well made, came out steaming and was very satisfying. The space felt cold to me, but seemed fine to all else. So just a note there if you run on the warmer side. I don't know if they do reservations, but I would imagine on some nights it would be a good idea seeing as they seem very busy.

    Ugh! I feel genuinely bad about giving this place three stars because it has all the makings of…read morebeing a five stars if not for one very important thing...the food. Which, you know, is kind of the whole point of a restaurant. The atmosphere was great, a little on the nose, but great none the less. It feels like a Mexican dinner or at least what I imagined a dinner in Mexico would look like. The staff where beyond amazing, especially the woman who made our complementary salsa right at the table. And the salsa was yummy but sadly that's the only part of the meal that I can say that about. The thing is, nothing was truly bad, but just about everything was incredibly bland. You'd have expected someone who puts raisins in potato salad to have served it, not an authentic Mexican restaurant. Though the positive is the lack of seasoning is really the only major problem. The food did not have any weird taste, it wasn't dry, the presentation was fine. It simply needs to be seasoned and this place goes to a solid 4/5 rather than a three.

The salsa bar is well-stocked and flavorful. Coffee for while you wait, which honestly isn't long even when it's busy. The turnover on tables is fast because the food comes out hot and fresh, you can't stop eating The cuban tacos!!! Wow - really couldn't have told you the difference between these and actual meat tacos. Juicier than most and definitely more flavorful than any other vegetarian option I've ever had. The Freida tacos were alright - a little blander than I had hoped and wasn't trying to be anything other than a veg taco. Personally, get the Cuban tacos. You won't regret it. Promise.

    Pretty good. Pretty good. Of the four of us who gathered to dine here last Friday, (late summer of…read more2026), three in our party raved about their meals, and had nothing but high-praise for the experience. We three, actually loved everything about AMELIAS. Us three (*let's just call them "the cool ones"), were wowed by the taste of our food and noted that the plate presentations were kinda cool-- and a little "more-fancy" than what is typically placed down upon the table at your typical Mexican food restaurants. AMELIAS adds a bit of "pizazz" and "decorum" to their menu items--like edible flowers that float in your margarita, or wavy lines of crema that dance on the seas of flavorful sauces that accompany the tamales, 'chiladas, and relleno plates served here. Three-forths of us also noted how attentive and friendly those who served us were. And... we (the cool ones) also all noticed how the warm, cheerful, and welcoming ambiance and decor of the place added to the enjoyment of our meal. (*Play Debbie-downer walk-up music) One in our group...(dramatic pause)... was notably quiet and reserved when it was her turn to rave about her dish. This person, smiled and shared that she thought her food was, "pretty good." But, now that I think about it...her praise was kinda limited, and she, indeed, was a bit reticent. I would find out later, as we lay in bed that night, that one in our group had not enjoyed her meal as much the other three had. Apparently, the cheese and chicken enchiladas dish that was ordered was not to this person's liking, and she added that she thought the service was "just okay". Not wanting to bring-down the mood of the evening, this person played along and didn't criticize. Now, I am not trained in psychology, but if feels like...(how do I put this delicately?)... okay. (*the writer thinks for a bit). Sometimes... when one in our party does not get to pick the restaurant that we are going to try, it seems to me... that...(dramatic pause as I try to find just the right words to say this).. I seems to me... that...This person is just, "not going to enjoy" the place that was picked, no matter how good it is. There! I said it. And while I'm on the subject... your mom is just like this too. And now you know the rest of my story. Let's summarize: AMELIAS is a very good restaurant and you will enjoy the heck out of your meal. Unless, of course, you insist on being the one who picks where your group goes out to eat-- and you don't get your way. Then, you will find it to be, "pretty good", but complain about it later in bed. (I know this is supposed to be a restaurant review, and not a mini-soap opera. But I hope you enjoyed our little dive into the phycology of relationships.) Until next time, this is the guy who will be sleeping on the couch for a night or two if my beloved happens to read this. (lol--she will find humor in this...and, of course, disagree with my "junior-phycologist" interpretation of why she thought Amelias was just okay. )

We didn't have a reservation (highly recommend getting one for busy times) and were happy to sit where they could fit us. Our server Louie was EXCELLENT. He walked us through the entire menu in 3 minutes and we felt confident ordering. He also suggested an amazing appetizer featuring chilies stuffed with cheese and shrimp and wrapped in bacon . I ordered the Fajitas Mixtas for my main as I wanted to try several meats. Hubby ordered the shrimp enchiladas with both green and red sauce. Both were beautiful and delicious. I also tried the mocktail that had prickly pear puree. It was delicious and refreshing. The menu had options available for folks seeking Gluten Free, too. Amelia's was decked out with modern, slightly edgy decor that was welcoming and exciting. Seating for wheelchair users could easily be accommodated by dining table chair removal. The Oracle Street location isn't huge, but the staff does a fantastic job getting folks in and you won't feel cramped. I could definitely see the place needing to expand due to popularity someday soon. Go and you won't regret it. This has made the list for returning to the next time we're in town!

Honestly, I wish I could give Yaquesita a little more, maybe half a star more, because this place definitely has potential. Their flavors are good, but compared to similar restaurants the menu feels a bit overpriced. For a party of three we ended up paying around $100, which felt like a bit much for what we got. The restaurant itself is pretty small with only about 3-4 tables inside, but the patio is a decent size and has a cute vibe. It's actually a nice option on cooler days if you don't mind sitting outside. Some items were better than others. The wet-style burrito was delicious and definitely a highlight. The quesabirrias were good, however the birria felt more like fancier shredded beef. It was missing that rich, spicy, slightly acidic, earthy flavor that usually sets birria apart from barbacoa or traditional shredded beef dishes. The bowl was just okay and had lots of lettuce. It felt more like a salad with a bit of meat, rice, and beans. Honestly, Chipotle does bowls better, and that says a lot considering the price. The nachos were good, but I've had better. Seis Kitchen has amazing nachos to share. That said, it's definitely a place I'd come back to mainly out of convenience, not because one particular item on the menu won my heart. I really do hope they continue refining the menu because the flavors are there and this place could easily become a standout spot. Personally I just think at the total price of my ticket other restaurants should not even have room in my mind during my meal. If you're in the area and looking for a safe bet where everyone will probably find something they like, it's worth giving them a try.
