As a UCR student, this is hands down my go-to spot when I need a quick and delicious bite. I probably come here more than anywhere else when it comes to getting food in Riverside. Their $2 fish tacos on Wednesdays are an absolute steal. The fish has a light crispy batter, and it is topped with fresh pico and crunchy cabbage. Then, the extra sauce on the side adds a nice kick, making them even better. Although I've never dined in myself, the atmosphere always feels lively. There's usually a steady crowd of people grabbing a quick bite, chatting, and enjoying the space, which gives it a fun and energetic vibe. It's the kind of place that feels welcoming, whether you're stopping by solo or with friends. I''ve also noticed that it could get pretty crowded on some nights, but honestly, it's well worth the wait. Parking could be limited as well, but I personally always found a spot or two open. read more

Great food. Great atmosphere. Came here on a rec from my brother in law and the food was solid. I really liked the acidity from the slaw and it went well with the fried fish in their OG fish tacos. I can only speak to the tacos and their rice and beans. Great way to fill up during lunch but not feel completely miserable after. My issue here is with management and messaging. I ordered my combo at was charged 11.99. The menu on the TV board said 8.79 and the paper menus they have show 9.99. When I asked for the price change, there was a pause and reference back to the paper menu which showed...9.99. If there was a price increase I'm totally cool with it. But if you reference one thing and I'm charged something else, this suggests that there is not clear communication from top down. I may be a bit overreaching and a little petty, but I think its important that people be upfront with costs and make sure the same message is shared across the board....literally. read more

Love coming on Tuesday and getting an order of Tijuana North with my roommate. It's the little enjoyments in life! Comes with 3 birria tacos and consomé for $8.99! Selection: From birria to shrimp, they pretty much have most tacos you can want from land to sea. I love how easy it is to call and put in an order, it's a close by restaurant for me, so it makes the pick up process all the more easier. The inside decor is super cute, makes you feel like you're not far from the beach. Parking: Some days are better than others. The little plaza gets super busy, so sometimes I have to park further away from the entrance. read more

The queso birria taco was absolutely sublime. I am craving more, yet trying to control myself. Very few places in Riverside have cravable items. This is one. You need this. read more

Worst customer service, i place a phone order and drove 35 minutes to this place . Martha the cashier handed me my order and told it was all there. Get home and half my order was missing. So I call back taken to the manger Issac and he told me Tuff Luck and hung up on me. Will never come here again!!! read more

This place slaps. Being near the coast, I have tried many a fish taco but the ones from this place always leave me craving for more. The fish tacos here are always perfectly battered and fried. You can actually hear the crunch when you bite into it! I do warn some that it can be a bit oily but that is the price you pay for some well bettered fish. More than that, they know how to add the perfect amount of tomatoes, white sauce, and onions to sum up an unexpected golden ratio. The service is quick as well. They have a bell for tips! I would def come back (already have) and highly recommend this land to anyone from the riverside area looking for some fish tacos. read more

Miches De La Baja - Battered Fish Tacos - delish - Mexican Near Me - Riverside, California

Honestly I always get my food from here to go cause I come during lunch break but every time you walk in you can smell the fresh seafood and Michis being made and it smells so delicious you get hungry all over again it doesn't smell fishy at all just straight up food being made creating delicious aroma. I usually get tacos and a side of beans and white rice. It tastes homemade and I never feel stuffed or get heartburn after like some restaurants do if they have dirty kitchens. The smells, the cleanliness of the food and the quality is top tier here. These amazing ppl definitely know what they're doing in that kitchen I'm so glad I found them . There's not a lot off good quality Mexican so I always recommend this place to ppl who come out of town to visit. 10/10!!!! read more

This review is for the fish tacos ONLY My friend introduced this place to me right across from the UTC plaza. I normally don't order fish tacos but I wanted to give it a try. He was right it was very yummy! The fish was fried and crispy! I really enjoyed the portion and amount of topping, just the perfect amount. I also favor the green sauce, it had a Smokey flavor to it and usually I would mind it.. but it complimented the taco very well. The workers here mid day are also very nice and smiley! Thank you much for your good vibes. Once you're done here, head over to the UTC to grab a drink. Took a tour around UCR after (which is nearby) and enjoyed walking around. read more

Too good, Not even exaggerating. Talk about a Bang for your buck. The Food is Super Good and very Generously served. OG battered fish Tacos are Huge. The ambience is ok. But the food takes all the marbles. The staff is super aware of new customers and they even asked me if it was good and I said Absolutely. Will return to this hidden gem. read more

This review is for their fried fish tacos only. I personally do not like Mexican food because it has lots of ingredients I do not eat. I consider the other 6 dishes I tried on different days were all bad. However, their fish tacos were amazing almost every time. Some days they tasted a bit of more delicious than the other days but over all this is my favorite fish taco place. Fish taco special on Wednesdays. read more

Miches De La Baja - Fish taco tray - Mexican Near Me - Riverside, California

Best fish/shrimp tacos I've had in riverside! Had the box with 3 battered shrimp tacos and 3 battered fish tacos. Tasty, seasoned well and fried perfectly. Good value! Very filling - my partner and I were full before we even finished the tacos. Our friends' order took a little longer than ours (not too long by any means) and they offered some drinks on the house to make up for it. Will definitely be returning and would recommend to others! read more

Hmm the hype is not real. Glad I waited for the hype to die down a bit. Basic fish good. Fish tacos and shrimp tacos taste the same, the shrimp cocktail was ok and the very popular fish chicarrones were kinda disappointing. Wouldn't think of this place as something to go out of your way to try. It was ok. Service was basic, all guys and the ambiance was typical for a place like this. Overall ok. read more

Ordered a carnitas burrito with beans and cheese and I got a cheese burrito with a sprinkle of carne asada. Not worth it. Embarrassing to bring "food" home to my parents and this is what's unwrapped. Ceviche is good. Super spicy. Fish tacos are good. Michis are good. Red salsa is bomb. Bf likes the surf and turf burrito - so I tried the fish burrito and I had a rice and coleslaw burrito with a skimpy piece of fish and a few shrimp. Service is good, but they are rushy at the cashier. Parking in lot. Ambience is nice. But dang! Not worth $$ for skimpy food. read more

Cool vibe and helpful people. Fish and shrimp tacos are amazing. Pretty much all the food is just absolutely fantastic. Very well priced

I can not recommend this place enough. I love ceviche and this place does a great job at it. The seafood is fresh, with options for shrimp, fish, octopus. The seasoning is perfect balance of spicy, sour and salty. Fish taco platter, has enough for 3 people, and comes with peppers and onions. Overall, clean and lots of people and entertainment to watch. read more

This is the first time I got to try this restaurant! For a weekday dinner, they were not busy and the food came out quickly. I had heard great things about their ceviche and maybe it was because I chose the mild rather than no spice but I was a little disappointed. It tasted of too much tomato in my opinion but I am looking forward to trying their other ceviche. Their other dishes on the other hand were 10/10! The birria tacos are pretty worth and good to split especially cause there was a special (3 for $7.99). The de la baja tacos were amazing! I would get those again (batter fish). All in all, the vibes were good! I would have liked the ceviche to be more fresh tasting and less like tomato/sweet but I think this is worth it for Taco Tuesdays or if you're feeling like some yummy Mexican food. read more

The food is delicious. If you like spicy food, then this is for you. If not, be sure to let them know too. The shrimp tostada in my photo is spicy, but I didn't know it would be spicier than what I normally eat. They also have horchata! The service is quick, the ambience is okay. read more

Miches De La Baja - Fish 2 Shrimp Tacos Grilled - Mexican Near Me - Riverside, California

A good casual place hang out and eat with friends. This review is based mainly on the Tostada Reyna and fries. Tostada Reyna - 3/5 Fries - 4/5 I was really looking forward to the ceviche because I love seafood but it just didn't hit the spot. I got mild but there was more spice than actual flavor which was pretty disappointing. The fries were pretty yummy. I'd listen to the other reviews and try the fish tacos instead. There's a lot of parking spots and there's mochinut/yogurtland if you want desert after. You order/pay for the food before you sit down. The table was a bit dirty when I first sat down but overall the restaurant was clean. read more

Their miches are soo yummy!!! My favorite is the tamarindo miche. I always get the shrimp burritos too! They also have quick service

Second time coming here. First time I got the aguachiles, they were very delicious and flavorful however too spicy to enjoy for me personally. Today we had fish tacos and birria tacos with the consome. Everything was a 10/10 The salsa verde that came with it was probably the best salsa verde I've ever had. I'll for sure come back to eat here whenever I'm in the area again! read more

Soo yummy! I had this shrimp tacos and I think I found my go to spot for shrimp tacos.

I've eaten here before and the food has always been fine, but what happened today was totally unacceptable and honestly disgusting. I came in, paid for my food, tipped as usual, and sat down while my wife used the restroom. I use a walker and have a prosthetic leg, so it takes me a bit to get up. A staff member named Juan called out that my food was ready. Then called out again, clearly annoyed. When I finally got up, I said, "Why did I even tip if I have to grab the food myself?" That's when he got aggressive--told me, "That's just how it is. If you don't like it, get out." I told him I wasn't going anywhere, and he flipped out. He called me a bitch and a pussy, and yelled at me to "get the fuck out and never come back." He didn't come around the counter, but he got right in my face from behind it like he was ready to start something. I got a refund and walked out, but let me be clear: this was harassment, not just bad service. If this is how they treat someone disabled who asks a simple question, then that's a major red flag. Juan should not be interacting with the public at all. Management needs to do better--because no one deserves to be treated this way. read more

I love their fish & queso shrimp tacos. The service is alway great. I give this spot a 10/10

Great addition to the city. A little hidden but very accessible. A much needed establishment to satisfy our cravings for authenticity. Visited a couple times. Great service, fresh food and great atmosphere. It's refreshing to walk in and know you're going to have a good experience. When you walk through the door you're transported. The fish tacos are excellent and served with a grilled yellow pepper a nice touch. The salsas are the cherry on top. Not for the faint of heart. The spicy one does pack a punch. It's so satisfying when you're enjoying a taco. (If you weren't raised with jalapeños you may want to stick to the green salsa) they definitely know how to make everyone happy. It's that perfect fish taco you've been searching for. read more

Miches De La Baja - 12 Fish taco box.. Wednesdays - Mexican Near Me - Riverside, California

Really great food and service. It has a decent amount of tables and seats. There was a line but went quick. I didn't take pictures but I had a battered fish taco and a battered shrimp taco. They were both really good but my favorite was the shrimp. I also ordered the carne asada fries and the fries were crispy even under carne asada, guac and cheese. They hooked me up with a spicy shrimp ceviche and tostadas for free because one of the items on my order was not done at the same time as the other. And that ceviche was amazing and especially spicy. All the food had flavor. They have self serve salsa station, one green and one red. If I was from the area I'd be eating here frequently. read more

Best fish and shrimp tacos in town! The tacos are large and flavorful. Ceviche is good and you get to choose your spice level. The mild is not spicy, but the hot is described as very spicy so I did not attempt to try that! The asada sope is okay and I would stick with their seafood options. read more

We went to this restaurant to escape the heat while we grabbed a bite to eat. Unfortunately, the temperature in the restaurant was not very cool. We ordered at the counter and they refused to add green salsa to my husband's burrito. They told him that he could dunk his burrito in green salsa after it was made. He said that the carne asada lacked flavor. I enjoyed my red queso fish taco. My daughter liked her fish tacos. We all enjoyed the French fries that were loaded with cheese and shrimp. The portions were large. It was nice that horchata was included as a fountain drink. read more

The best fish tacos in town, and their ceviches are fresh and tasty! They got their fish taco special on Wednesdays for $1.99. The batter is light, crispy, and not too oily. Their orangey hot sauce is addicting! Quick service and good vibes. Parking is a hit or miss in this cozy plaza. read more

I came here on the recommendation of a coworker. I got a 2 OG fish taco combo. The fish tacos were great. The fish was flakey and the batter was still crunchy. The white sauce and Pico de Gallo were flavorful but not overpowering. The salsas were both good and I enjoyed the pepper that was included. The rice and beans were a bit plain but otherwise not bad. read more

I was in Riverside over the weekend and had a real hankering for some good California style fish tacos. Miches De La Baja did not disappoint! It is tucked away in a shopping center near the University. Parking was tight, but we were able to snag a spot near the back. We were promptly greeted by 3 nice and friendly young gentleman who took the time to explain different items on the menu, and they were also very patient while we all decided on what to get. We had a party of 5 including 2 twin teens, so needless to say we took a bit to get our orders together. You order at the counter and they call you up when your order is prepared. We opted for tilapia tacos (grilled), traditional fish tacos (fried), carne asada fries, shrimp cocktail, and fish chicharrons. The tacos were delicious across the board. My husband mentioned that his fish tacos had large chunks of fish when he prefers a smaller strip, but I am not going to sway this review or complain because of a large amount of delicious fish! Everything was made to order, fresh and with love. They have a beverage fountain, and also serve beer and cocktails. Hubby had Corona while my sister and I had the Strawberry Margaritas. They offer them both on the rocks and frozen. They were very good and fresh tasting. There were a couple of open tables when we arrived, but none available as we were leaving. This place definitely seems popular and loved by many. People were literally waiting outside of the door for a table. If you are in the area and craving some good seafood/tacos, give Miches a try! They will not disappoint. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Miches! We will definitely be back the next time we visit California. read more
