    The food was hot and freshly prepared, the service was friendly and attentive. They offer a daily special - burrito with a choice of chicken or shredded beef, served with a side of rice, beans, and chips. I did question the extra rice and beans, assuming they were included both inside the burrito and on the side. I wasn’t expecting it to be so veggie-filled (grilled onions, peppers etc) , which actually turned out to be a nice surprise. The burrito itself was on the smaller side and packed more vegetables than protein, but the flavors were still good. The salsa bar was incredible, offering a variety of flavors, although they were a bit mild, probably to cater to the local community’s taste. Overall, a solid spot worth returning to, especially to try the tacos next time!

    I ordered ahead via the app. I live 1 mile away and the order was ready when I arrived. I was greeted when I stepped up to the pickup counter. Place is alway Clean and Staff friendly. Oh, it was Tuesday. I love the food.

    Good food and fresh. The service was fast. You have salsa bar with different types of salsa. It’s a clean location. The prices are very reasonable. I would go back.

    I’ve been eating at this location for over 25 years. This was one of my family’s favorite places to eat. I stopped eating here for the last ten years but have recently started eating here again because I moved back to the neighborhood. I am so impressed with the quality of the food and am never disappointed. There is something so amazing about the consistency of this place that it makes other restaurants seem inferior. My wife likes to eat at chipotle a lot but their steak is so rarely good. It’s chewy, grizzly, and fatty. At Baja Fresh it’s nearly perfection everytime. I enjoy each bite but at chipotle I typically have to spit out a few bites because it’s hard to chew. I also love their salsas. The Baja salsa is my favorite and we enjoy eating the leftover salsa on breakfast and other dishes. Their chips are also perfect every time where as chipotles are always stale. I’ve recently downloaded the app and that has improved my experience more because it’s easier to order the same items, not have to wait for my food, and the ability to pay online. We are eating here sometimes twice a week now. This place is really very good.

    Pathetic. Ordered shrimp taco and got grilled fish. Baja fish taco (pictured) is nothing like the menu. About 2 oz of fish and a bunch of cabbage.
