Beautiful spread with great company
Jessica M.

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!

Tacos de Pescado and Tacos de Camaron

Excellent food. I had the Taco de Pescado and Taco de Camaron and both are so good at a great price. The fish was flaky and fresh. The veggies crisp. The salsa was super tasty. Friendly and fast service. Also, love the NO ICE sign. I will definitely go back again.

Fish tacos

Haven't been here in a long time, food was bland, no flavor. Fish tacos had nothing on them and were dry. Quality has gone downhill.

Best fish tacos in Whittier!
Alex J.

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!

Man why hasn't anyone told me about this place before!! This place is fire !! We came in on a Wednesday around lunch hour , the place was jam packed!! Parking can be a little of a issue , small parking lot . But with the wait ! Service is pretty quick , and the prices are super affordable!! Seem they haven't gone up like every where else . They have tacos and mariscos . All look fresh and tasty . I got the tht meal with a shrimp taco and fish taco rice and beans for about $12 . Oh! And they have the yellow seasoned chilis up for grabs , no limit or charge !!! Will definitely be back!

Don't interact with her she'll give you an attitude, extremely rude.
Daniel M.

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.

Tacos Baja: combo 1
Rosie A.

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.

Ceviche Mixto
Junior R.

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!

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

Shrimp Tacos

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

Fish tacos
Stef M.

The food is so good, everything is served fresh. I personally think the fish taco is excellent, the shrimp taco is also very very good. We actually love everything we ordered here. We ordered at the counter and picked up the food ourselves at the counter. The service is at the counter. Ambiance is casual, we cleaned up our table afterwards

Tacos de Pescado
Suzette V.

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.

Food is always good. Wish the place was a bit cleaner though or else I'd give a better review. By far one of the better fish tacos.

I probably come here at least 2 times a month! That's how good it is!…read more Located in Whittier hides a fish grill place. I kid you not every time we come here we get the same things plus more (sometimes). I always get the off the grill plate. My choice of fish is always Basa. For the seasoning you can get lemon pepper or Cajun. And it automatically comes with salad and rice with butter and choice of dressing. Oh and they include a few triangles of pita bread. The service is always amazing. They do get sometimes busy and it's sometimes a 1 woman show taking the orders and giving the orders but she's a doll! There's probably at least 3 TVs playing sports. Go Dodgers! They have a wide variety of Dodger bobble heads and memorabilia all over it. Oh and there's also an outdoor area along with heaters!

The menu has a good variety of food and drinks, so there are plenty of options to choose from. Unfortunately, I wasn't too impressed with the food. It felt like it was missing something. I tried adding lemon, their house sauces, and hot sauce, but the fish and calamari still tasted pretty bland. I ordered the fish tacos and the fried calamari strips, and neither had much flavor. The portions were also on the smaller side, so I didn't feel like the price matched the amount or quality of the food. I'd have to give it a 6/10 at best. The staff was very friendly and attentive despite the food.
