What a sleeper of a spot. I don't know why it has a 3.7 but the service and general vibe of the spot was great. They were patient with our long order and food came out quickly. One of the workers was singing to music playing and my family liked that vibe to the restaurant. Their fish tacos take the edge over even taco nazo in my opinion-- their tortillas don't break apart and the pricing is better for about the same size tacos. Self-service peppers were a great plus for my family and I also like how orders come with a side of crema. 5/5 read more

Excellent food, service, and overall great time. The restaurant wasn't super packed but it was tidy. Dropped by with my gal pals after a hike at turnbull and we ordered a large ceviche de Cameron, a medium Coctel de camaron and 3 fish tacos with rice and beans, we had no idea how much food we ordered! The prices were very reasonable, the amount of food was generous. I left with lunch for the next day. The staff were very friendly. We mentioned we were sharing the ceviche and they made us 3 separate plates with tostadas so we didn't have to split it up ourselves. Overall wonderful time, the chilitos were great, loved the salsa too. Had a great time. Will gladly return! read more

Once again, I cannot stress enough. How delicious this restaurant is and how affordable it is as well. My go-to's are always the fish tacos with everything on them. The fish is so crispy and the middle is so nice and hot. If you crave fish tacos. This is a place to go. The guys that are at the front are really kind and the ones that give you the food are kind as well. Just really good professional service. This location is relatively new for them, and it's really nicely decorated and it has a huge green TV with Latin music playing. The prices are affordable, and my family and I go all the time, and I've introduced all my friends to it as well. If you're looking for a good fish taco place or just a good authentic Mexican seafood place with all the other Mexican dishes, please visit Tacos Baja! read more

Tacos Baja - Best fish tacos in Whittier! - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

If you want attitude from the women up front, come here. Other than that stay away from this place, you walk in and she has a stank attitude. Screaming and yelling upset that shes gotta do her job. Terrible. No customer service. Places says it closes at 7pm, with multiple people in their lobby saying "I'm only doing mobile orders." Avoid this place at all cost. Busted down looking joint. read more

I first learned about Tacos Baja from the East LA branch om Whittier Blvd. Was randomly passing by when I spotted this location and decided to give them a try. Definitely a hole-on-the-wall kinda place that totally needs an uplift in the cleaning department, but the food is delicious. Purchased combo #1 plus an horchata and a Jamaica. The fish tacos were very flavorful. Loved the warm tortillas and the chiles hueros!!! The rice and beans were just ok. Would return for fish tacos and will try other menu items. The waters were over sweetened but most people like their drinks with this amount or even more sugar. Personally I diluted my drinks in half to deal with the excess. Definitely a spot to check out if you can overlook the grime and is down for a good bite. read more

Tacos Baja is hands down one of my favorite spots for fish tacos. Their ceviche mixto good as well--It's the perfect appetizer to start any meal there. Another highlight is their unbeatable fish taco deal on Wednesdays. The fish tacos are crispy, generously portioned, and topped with fresh cabbage and their signature creamy sauce. At such a great price, it's hard not to order a whole plate! The atmosphere is casual and lively, and the staff is always quick and friendly. If you're craving delicious seafood and amazing deals, Tacos Baja is definitely worth a visit--especially on Wednesdays! read more

Tacos Baja - Ceviche Mixto - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

Hands down best tasting fish taco I've ever had, has the perfect portion of fish in a taco & lightly breaded, and cooked to perfection. Isn't a hunt for the fish in your taco like most other places. New location much much more roomier and up to date, with better parking situation too. read more

Absolutely not going back here! If you can't afford to put out some fresh chilies for your customers, (and then argue about it when I asked to do so) this place is not for me!!!! Apparently the owner just doesn't get it!!!! I have paid good money to eat their many times and this is just a big giant disappointment on your part and your response from your owner is also disappointing. Best regards. read more

We were in Whittier driving around looking for tacos. After striking out at our first stop we decided to give this place a shot. The place is clean and the shrimp looked fresh. The cashier was very friendly and welcomed us in. They do not have and Coke in the fountain drinks. On the plus side. They do sell Mexican Coke in the bottle:). The fish and shrimp tacos were okay just a little heavy on the batter. The food tasted fresh and not frozen.i do have my favorite, go to, fish taco spot.here in the South Bay Area. We will be heading back to Whittier to try out some street tacos that we're setting up when we driving. Hopefully we find a hidden gem. Tune back in to see what we found read more

Baltizar was a real professional and a real hustler, he went out of his way to make sure I was accommodated and even let me sample things to so I could be sure of what I was getting. Food was excellent and I will definitely make it a point to come again. Appreciate you bro read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch today and it did not disappoint. We had tacos de pescado this time but even the Cameron and ceviche is amazing here. Parking can be a little rough at lunch time but you can always park in the little plaza next door. Staff is super friendly. Everything was also very clean inside. One of our top lunch spots. read more

A solid spot for fried fish tacos, super delicious and on point. I ordered fish tacos a seafood soup and their shrimp cocktail. The tacos were delicious and mainly because of the fried fish.

I'd definitely come back here again to try their other menu items. read more

I used to go to school in Whittier and Tacos Baja was a staple for their $1 tacos on one of the days of the week. I've eaten here so much over those years that I crave the fish tacos and the spiced pepper on the side into my adulthood. Every single time it's perfectly cooked and tender with the perfect amount of toppings. I try and get fish tacos here every time I come back and will continue to for every visit. They did forget to get me one of my tacos and I just let the counter know and they got me another one. My friend also got the ceviche and it is great. read more

I had lunch here yesterday and had a fish and a shrimp taco with a horchata. The fish and shrimp were freshly made. A lot of fish, but not a lot of shrimp, but both very tasty. The horchata was weak and lacked a cinnamon taste. Overall a good lunch. You can call to order to go orders. Parking: a small lot and street parking. Stars: 4 read more

After over 10 years of enjoying Tacos Baja on Whittier Blvd, today we finally have to say no more. We've eaten our last here as each time we've come over the past 4 years the experience has lost its draw. Today when we found the actual fish in the taco was the size of a human finger wrapped in more batter than anyone would want we finally said no more. We paid $10 for a plate of batter, cabbage, tomatoes, and about 1/3 cup each of rice and beans. Goodbye old friend, it's just not the same anymore. read more

I get here 1 hour before closing time and the lady at the register yelling angrily loud "I'm not taking any more orders!!!" With only 2 people in line ahead of me. I've driven here 2-3 times 30 mins-1 hour before the listed closing time and they already have the signs up that they are closed wasting my time and gas driving here . The shrimp tacos are delicious but are tiny peices of shrimp. You guys need more help with workers . Parking always horrible. Customer service poor. read more

This place is great. Food is always delicious and friendly customer service. As for their prices you can't go wrong. If you are looking for good fish tacos, definitely check this spot. Also, their carne asada quesadilla plate with beans and rice is great! read more

This place has really good seafood but the customer service isn't that great. The ladies were rude. Not family friendly.

I love the tacos here. The service is quick and the food has also been delicious. I greatly appreciate the fact that they don't mix the oil from this fish with shrimp like every other place that has fish tacos as I'm allergic to shrimp. read more

Very disappointed. Went Sunday around 7 pm Jan4,26 spent around $50 2 Surf/Turf burritos, 2 Asada tacos, & 1 Regular shrimp burrito. Shrimp burrito was ordered for me I got food poisoning and was throwing up all night plus the whole next day leaving me with body aches bone aches and inflammation I am still recovering 3 days later. read more

Food is good. Customer service needs work starting off with the dark short lady that takes your order she is rude and rolls her eyes, doesn't greet correctly. If you don't like your job just say that. Overall good but what is a drag having to deal with someone who is giving attitude just for ordering food She picks and chooses on who to be nice to read more

Good food, great prices, excellent costumer service. Shrimp ceviche the best., I will definitely make it one of favorites

My first impression walking in it smelled more funky than food. Customers perspective is to enjoy the aroma of the food being made. NOT THE FUNKY SMELL Improve your customer service help the people waiting to order first once you've helped everyone quick enough to call the orders coming out. NEVER wait for a customer to ask for condiments & ignored. They were stingy with the sauce although it was tasty it was unfortunate that I only got one out of two orders & didn't give me my drink I ordered I had to ask for what was missing. read more

Great fish tacos. Nice clean location and the service was fast. Will definitely be coming back.

this place is now closer to home. gotta love taco wednesdays. only downside is parking is tight and it gets busy quick so expect to wait a little. still worth the wait tho. read more

I went to Tacos Baja for my son's basketball fundraiser. Typically, those types of things mean the food won't be that great.

Tacos Baja - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

Yeah I do like tacos Baja for their fish and shrimp tacos and ceviche when I'm on the go. This location is always packed and I wish they took phone orders so I can come and pickup my order and split but they never answer their phones so I always have to place my order at that location which is bothersome. The parking lot is always full and so your best bet is to park a couple of stores down on Whittier Blvd on the street. Watch out for fast moving cars when exiting your vehicle. If you dine in there are no refills for your soda so don't gulp it down before you finish your meal. The tables were dirty as people ate and left. Business was brisk so nobody was tending to the tables. read more

I'd give this place 5 stars for the great service + how affordable it is. But other than that, it's nothing to rave about. I ordered the fish tacos and they were bland, the tortillas were dry and the rice was mushy. The restaurant was also very dirty which is a huge red flag. I won't be returning. read more

been hear 30 minutes and still waiting for my tacos! ugh whatever you do do t come on a wednesday smh

Way too noisy in this place. Gets some carpet or rolling chairs. Too many kids screaming. Good food but take it go.

Their fish and shrimp tacos are good. I typically can't eat chile because of my stomach condition; but, for some reason, their red sauce doesn't bother my stomach. I asked if they could tell me what kind of chilies they used to make it and they refused to tell me. I wasn't asking for the recipe but, ...yeah. I agree with other's reviews, food is good (not great) but their customer service and their staff's attitude is atrocious. They're so rude. read more

Update. Still HORRIBLE customer service. I walked out. Look at other negative reviews... none mention food, all about the bad service read more
