    Mango margaritas
    Vuoch L.

    Some friends and I stop in to try El Baja Bar & Grill. It's definitely a fun vibe and loud atmosphere with Latin music blaring in the background . Full bar and table chairs seating options. Taco Tuesday specials $1.99 street tacos . Meat flavored well , My choice of pollo, asada , carnitas . Tacos came undressed , I actually preferred it this way, at the self serve salsa and toppings bar to customize how I like. Great selections of grilled jalapeño ( yummm ) sautéed onions, cheese cubes, corn kernels, onions, cilantro and many more options with different varieties of salsas. We also took advantage of their happy hour drinks and appetizers menu options. Monday-Friday 3pm-7 pm. We were surprised the portions were full size offering, not like most other establishments . We ordered calamari, fish ceviche & queso fundido . the flavor of queso fundido here is delicious ( I recommend) the fish ceviche was not to my liking . It has a tint of ocean sea aroma I couldn't stomach. Be sure to stop in any day of the week . They offer different specials each day. Follow their website to see their daily specials . Happy Hour Monday-Friday 3pm-7pm Margaritas Monday - Taco Tuesday Micheladas Wednesday Tribute Thursday ( live performances / karaoke Sunday Brunch Buffett 9-3 pm $37.99 adults /$12 kids ( live music starts at 10 we will stop by again.

    Queso Fundido

    Visiting for the first time. Food was great tacos were tacoing on a Tuesday for $1.50 but does not include fish, lengua. Inside seating tables, booths or bar. Happy hour menu 3-7pm Mon-Fri. Service was great. Parking available right in front. Took a few tries to get a water refill but the tacos were worth it cuz of the awesome salsa bar! Definitely worth a visit. Will definitely return.

    I called a day before for pricing and hours. I was told the brunch buffet was $35 but it was actually $37.99 when I got there. Met up with some friends for a bday brunch. The food was so good. There was a bit of everything. I really liked their chipotle spaghetti, it was different. And omg their arroz con lecha was the most delicious and cozy arroz con leche I have ever had! Food was kept hot and mimosas were promptly poured without having to ask. There's wasn't anything that I didn't like. The mariachi took requests and it made the environment so fun. I would really like to go back.

    Hibiscus Margarita! $6 happy hour
    Anissa J.

    We've been passing by this place for years. Actually it's been a few places over the years. The few consistencies have been the crowded parking lot, the music playing outside (you can hear it as you pass), and the posted ads around the building. We finally got the nerve to stop in on a Taco Tuesday. We arrived at 652pm....8 minutes left in happy hour! By the time we sat, we had 5 minutes. I ordered the hibiscus Margarita $6 and the hubster had the regular lime margarita...he's so boring at times ...lol! Proceeded to order chicken taquitos and hot wings. The hubster added carne asada tacos. The taquitos were so cute and nicely presented on a bunch of lettuce on top of some cheeses beans that were really good! Suggestion: loose the greenery OR lessen it! It takes away from the really good beans underneath the taquitos! Now the wings....perfect! All they needed was some cool bleu cheese! It's cool tho....i had some at home so that's exactly where I ate them. By the time the tacos came, I was stuffed so I didn't try them. The hubster said they were good with lots of flavor. I know that for $1.99....they were some full tacos! I can't wait to go back and try other things. If the "staples" are good....erry'thang gotta be good!!!!

    2nd visit here and place feels like you're in a flower garden !! Walls and ceilings are decorated with silk flowers ! Good service ! Happy hours are priceless with $8 appetizers and drinks Monday -Friday 3pm - 7 pm only! Hubby and I met up with friends from work to just have a drink to the end the week! Ordered the Queso Fundido with chorizo and flour tortillas. Just hoping melted cheese didnt get cold quick as it was served on a iron skillet!!! It was still gooey but preferred it a little warm by serving it in a warmer!!! Requested my Mango Slushie be served with vodka than tequila!!! Will surely try the Sunday Buffet !!

I was there enjoying them with a beer and good conversation. We were taking our time eating and enjoying our drinks; the aguachiles were not the only thing on our table. While we were still eating, someone from the kitchen came out and asked if he could take our plate. We politely said no thank you because we were still working on it. A few minutes later he came back and insisted on taking the plate, saying something along the lines of, "A clean table makes a consumer buy more," but the way it was said came across as rude and made us feel rushed. If the plate had been mostly empty, with just a couple of pieces left, I would have completely understood. But that wasn't the case -- I had only eaten about 2-3 shrimp out of a dozen. I shared how I felt, explaining that I understood clearing finished plates, but we were clearly not done. His response was dismissive and he walked away. The food had potential, and the aguachiles had good flavor, but the service experience left me disappointed. Sometimes giving guests a little time to enjoy their meal, conversation, and drinks makes a bigger difference than having a perfectly cleared table.

    I came here for the first time after a stressful few weeks, and I absolutely loved the…read moreexclusiveness and hidden-away feeling this place offers. For most of the night, I had a great time minding my own business, watching videos quietly on my phone in a corner of the bar. As I was getting ready to leave, a random guy sitting nearby asked me to lower the volume on my phone. Whether he intended to be polite or not, it felt condescending, territorial, and completely unnecessary. They were speaking louder than my phone, yet somehow my phone was the issue. It honestly felt like a case of "local syndrome," where someone felt empowered to tell me what to do in a place that isn't theirs. I didn't want to create a scene, so I generously tipped the bartender and left. But I was genuinely upset that I was told to be quiet while I was simply minding my own business in a corner. The place itself does not deserve a bad review because of the actions of one customer. However, if this person is in any way connected to management or staff, I would seriously reconsider my rating and change it to one star--something I never done before. I think a little more compassion and understanding toward fellow customers would go a long way.

    Hey Brian, I wanted…read moreto reach out about something that happened tonight that I feel you should know about. I also want to be clear that all of this transpired after you had already left for the evening. For context, I'm a regular at the bar and have been coming in for quite a while. I've never had a major issue with Brent or Steven, even though they both have personalities that can come across as sarcastic or abrasive. I've generally let it go because my reason for coming to the bar is simple: I come in to have a few beers, relax, and enjoy myself. Tonight, while I was still drinking one of my beers and had some left in the glass, Brent came by and took it away as if I was finished. I jokingly said something along the lines of, "I guess you're not going to let me finish the last bit." I wasn't upset and wasn't trying to start an argument. It was an obvious mistake that could have been solved with a simple apology. Instead, he responded with a snarky comment rather than acknowledging the mistake. Later, he brought another beer to my table. I made eye contact with him and before I could even say anything, he asked, "Do you want to say something to me?" I replied, "No, I just wanted to say thank you." His response was, "Your eyes are telling me differently." Again, I found that unnecessarily confrontational and disrespectful. At that point, I decided to leave a $0 tip. I normally tip very well, often around 30% or more, and this was the first time I've intentionally left no tip because I wanted to send a message that I was unhappy with the way I was being treated. After that, Steven came over and confronted me about leaving no tip. He asked if I was really zeroing it out and questioned me about whether something had happened between me and Brent. I told him that whatever issue I had was not his concern, and he responded, "Fair enough." I assumed that would be the end of it. Instead, Brent came outside and confronted me. He told me Steven had said I had a problem with him. I explained that I didn't have a personal problem with him; my issue was his attitude and the way he was treating me as a customer. Rather than listening, he became increasingly hostile. I reminded him that I'm a customer and that I'm only there to buy beer from the business. I'm not there to deal with sarcasm, attitude, or an employee's emotions. As a paying customer, the minimum I expect is basic respect. I shouldn't have to walk on eggshells or accept being spoken to disrespectfully while simply trying to enjoy a beer. That confrontation ended poorly and he went back inside. A short time later, he came back out and confronted me again, this time in front of other customers. The situation became even more uncomfortable because it was happening publicly. During that exchange, he ultimately told me that I was not welcome back. Again, I reminded him that I am a paying customer whose only purpose in being there is to support the business and enjoy a beer. I should not be getting into arguments with employees, being confronted in front of other patrons, or being told I'm not welcome because I expressed concerns about how I was being treated. The bigger issue is that, in my opinion, this isn't just about tonight. This has been months in the making. I've noticed a pattern with both Brent and Steven where they seem to have become comfortable treating customers with attitude and sarcasm in ways that shouldn't be acceptable in a customer-facing role. I've overlooked it many times because I enjoy the bar and didn't think it was worth making an issue out of. On the other hand, employees like Kim, Josh, and David have always treated me and other customers with professionalism and respect. They know how to joke around while still making customers feel welcome. I've never had an issue with them. From my perspective, the problem is specifically Brent and, to a lesser extent, Steven. Brent especially has developed a demeanor that I find unwelcoming, confrontational, and disrespectful toward customers. I don't think I'm the only person who feels this way. Tonight was simply the point where it crossed a line. I'm not sending this because I want anyone fired or punished. I simply think you should know what happened, especially since it all occurred after you had left. I've spent a lot of time and money at your establishment over the years, and I would hope that customers--especially regulars--can expect basic courtesy and respect from the people serving them. I wanted to give you my side of the story directly. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

We walk in and there are signs saying to check in on the ipad and wait to be called. The ipad was off, so we waited to be seated at the entrance (like any other restaurant). We stood there for 10-15 minutes without being acknowledged. I figured they'd get to us, it's a busy friday night. Nope. I realized once another couple walked to the back of the restaurant and were immediately seated that we were supposed to walk up. So that's when we do. I ask the host how we can get a table, she curtly asked "What's your name?" I responded "Ash, but we didn't put our name in or anything, I just don't know how to get a table." She rolled her eyes at me and said "You didnt see the ipad?" I said "They were turned off..." She then said "How many?" I responded "For two." She annoyedly gestured to a table and tossed a menu on the table without another word. Rude af. She looked exhausted and unkempt in her adidas sweats. Two stars for our great server and the good food/drinks.
