Baja Box, one of the few restaurants located on Quincy Shore Dr, across from Wolly Beach! If you're not feeling a fried seafood platter from Tony's or the Clam Box, you must visit Baja for some delicious tacos! Their tacos are quite good honestly, but a little pricey. Each order of tacos comes with two tacos for about $12-14. I usually get the baja fish tacos or carnitas... sometimes both. I highly recommend trying the baja fish tacos! They are my favorite tacos to get from here & are good every time. The Mexican Street Corn is not bad ($5), but also nothing special. I have tried the ice cream before in the past. Pretty good prices for their ice cream. They've got a variety of different flavors & 3 sizes (kids, small, & large). Parking; They have their own parking lot in the back. It gets a bit crowded so I try to avoid parking there. Usually, I have luck parking across the street by the beach. Highly recommend if you're looking for some yummy tacos in Quincy ;) read more

Horrible service. Over 10 min wait for an acai bowl. Will not be back. Rude employees.

Baja Box isn't serving tacos this year, but the info is no where on their website. Drove all the way over there for them to say it's ice cream only and maybe they would open the kitchen next year... read more

Dude! believe the hype, man! One of my good work friend that's been trying to get me to try this place too long, after a couple of trips to Wolly Beach I finally made it in here, and I can see why he spoke so highly of this place. are these the best tacos I've ever had? No, and alas, my search for the perfect taco continues, still this distract you from the fact hands are seriously freakin' good! When I was indecisive Beef Barbacoa and Pork Carnitas, my server recommended the Carnitas, so Carnitas it is!. Let me tell you: they do not skimp on the meat! there's a generous amount there, but not so much that the taco falls apart at first bite. The meat was cooked well and just the right amount of juicy. However, my critique is that while the toppings and sauces did a nice job complimenting the taco I would have liked a little more seasoning in the meat, although to be fair there is S & P available if you choose to add it. The toppings complimented the tacos superbly, they added just enough flavor to give the tacos some pop, but not so much as to overwhelm. they added some freshness, some creaminess, and the onions added a little bit of crunch. My only criticism here is that I would have liked just a tiny bit more onions. I like more crunch and bursts of freshness offered by onions, but I realize that this is somewhat of a personal taste. Still, I was not expecting this level of quality especially from a small shop like this. There is limited window seating available inside, and there is some outdoor seating. read more

Baja box was always one of my favorite places to go in the summer time. The grilled chicken tacos were always one of my favorites. I was so disappointed when I got them today. The Perdue packaged chicken is better than the chicken they put on these tacos. Such a shame. I'd be embarrassed to serve these to customers. read more

Baja Box - Grilled chicken tacos - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

Came here on a miserable rainy day past peak days. I don't expect much out of Mexican food in Boston (save for a couple spots) so I wasn't anticipating a mind-blowing experience. The elote was fine, though I don't have much experience with them. It was a little cheesy and flavorful. The grilled fish tacos were pedestrian but edible. They were rather sizable but just too creamy. Having this creamy "wasabi" mayo along with cole slaw caused me to think I was just eating cream and tortilla. The pickled onion attempted to provide a tangy counter but just doesn't cut it. The fish didn't seemed grilled but rather more boiled than anything. There wasn't a grilled flavor to it, but even if it did, the slaw and mayo would have overwhelmed it. Service was friendly and helpful. If I really really wanted some fish tacos and want a beach-view included, I'd swing by. read more

With nicer weather and a dabble in the Richardson's side of the menu, the Ice Box 2.0 would be an easy four stars. Right now, it's hovering at a 3.4, and not for quantity ($8 score two six inch flour tortillas each packing a beautifully fried white fish plank with cabbage, cotija, crema and a house chipotle sauce), price (very fair) nor for necessity - a spot like this on Wollaston Beach will make a killing! It's mainly for the flavors. Specifically, the overly subtle melding of all those potentially packed textures and ingredients hit the tongue as one-note. Same was said for the street corn; two halves of a cob for $4, with essentially the same treatment as the Baja Fish Tacos above. The plates looked great, and if I were only eating with the eyes, Baja serves five-star food. But the nose knows, and the palate soon finds out. Definitely happy to make a return, with high hopes on a more rounded menu take (especially those Baja Nachos - those things looked stacked)! And most definitely during sunny weather to enjoy the patio. read more

Great location, great view, and even better tacos! Parking is easy along the beach and the outdoor seating area has umbrellas to keep you cool in the shade. I ordered baja shrimp tacos, beef barbacoa tacos, and chips with guacamole. The guacamole tasted super fresh and both tacos were full of flavor. Each order comes with two tacos that are generously portioned. I would definitely love to come back here! read more

Best pulled pork nachos in the state. This place needs to stay open year round. It's that good.

Great fish tacos, light and crispy and chipotle sauce gives it a nice smoky spice and slaw gives it a nice fresh crunch. Guac and chip was also very fresh. read more

Getting mint chip and pistachio together in a kiddie cup $2.85 wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but it was sure was pleasing to the taste buds! The Ice Box is an ice cream shop set within walls so you may place your order at the window from the comfort of the indoors. A couple of stools and a counter line the outer wall, but there are three picnic tables set outside as well. Prices for their hard ice cream are kiddie $2.85, small $3.70, and large $4.25. Prices for the soft ice cream are kiddie $2.65, small $3.50, and large $4. Plus tax. The ice cream was fine. Sounds like it is from Richardson's. The raspberry lime rickey $1.75, however, was a bit of a disappointment, being more ice than anything else. *** 5/2017 *** Looks like the Ice Box has been reincarnated as the Baja Box... read more

The best taco place near me! My fav taco here is the baja shrimp tacos, they're so addicting and fulfilling. The corn is also one of my favs, so good, also addicting if you love street corn like me lol. I also get chips and guac along with my order, I think their chips are freshly made there which is a plus even if it's not, it's okay bc they're really good - the guac is also made perfectly. Super tasty! They have a variety of foods that are good, try everything before you turn this place down. I personally do not like their other tacos, but I know people that love them. Just to mention; I replace the corn tortillas for flour bc I don't like corn tortillas. There isn't corn tortillas on every taco order though. They also have good nachos that come in huge portions, I would get this to share for sure. There's also ice cream, sundaes, etc. available that I see a lot of people get. + I think it's affordable for how fulfilling and good it is, service is quick and nice read more

Loved the shrimp tacos - better than Bartaco! The fish tacos were better at Bartaco though. The nachos was delicious! So much meat! I am so full right now! Will be back again! read more

Reasonably priced but mediocre tasting. The sauce on the fish tacos was strange and didn't have much taste and there were a lot of pickled red onions. Maybe would come back and try the other meat tacos. read more

Baja Box - Grilled fish tacos and street corn - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

NOT LOCAL FRIENDLY :( I've tried to make this my spot but the inconsistency fathoms me. They NEVER pick up the phone so it's almost impossible to order ahead...like on your way home from work. Also tried to come here on a Friday night at 6:30, there was a light sprinkle so I thought I'd finally beat the crowd and they were closed! On a Friday?! Only caters to tourists...too bad. read more

I reeeally enjoy coming here. Two tacos will set you back $8, but they're worth it--especially if you get their battered Baja Fish or Baja Shrimp! They're crispy and truly outshine their other offerings. All of the tacos are dressed with cabbage slaw, variations of crema, chipotle mayo, and cotija cheese which make for heaven in your mouth. Naysayers will complain that the tacos are drenched with sauce, but I personally see that as a highlight. My only complaint is I wish they would serve larger wedges of lime!! read more

Well color me impressed. New to the area, I was craving Mexican and hopped on Yelp to satisfy my cravings. I was intrigued by the pictures of delicious tacos, albeit in takeout boxes, so I decided to stop by for lunch one Saturday and eat tacos on the beach wall. WOW - these are some really good tacos. I was surprised at what Baja Box delivered after seeing an unassuming storefront - a true hole in the wall kind of place. We parked across the street, plenty of beach front parking and ordered at the counter. The inside is nothing impressive, with colorful menu signs and counter seating. They also have a nice looking patio should you want to sit with a table. In addition to tacos, they also serve ice cream. The tacos were flavorful and exactly what I had come for. We ordered the Baja shrimp tacos and the pork carnitas. Both were fresh, flavorful, and simply good tacos. Two tacos in a take out box will set you back around $8 but I was impressed with the ingredients and flavors. I am no means a taco authenticity expert, but these tacos were impressive, delicious, and left me wishing I had ordered two servings! Overall, I would return for the tacos. Baja Box is a 4.5 (rounded down to a 4) given that the taco flavor comes in at a 5 but the atmosphere and service lower their overall rating. I'll be back again before they close for the summer season! read more

Perfect spot right by the beach to enjoy some delicious ice cream sundaes on a hot summer day! So far I've only enjoyed their ice cream which is super yummy but I can't wait to try their food as well! Their tacos looks so boo *UPDATE* So I finally had their grilled fish tacos & it was so good! I also had the grilled chicken which was also good but I just loved the fish! read more

Oh my gosh - Richardson's Ice Cream on the south shore! I grew up on the north shore of MA and loved going to Richardson's in Middleton for their delicious ice cream. I now live in Quincy, and The Ice Box is my go to for having delicious Richardson's ice cream close to home. The portions here are huge! I've ordered a kiddie for myself and it's more than enough. The smalls have 3 scoops of ice cream! Stop by here for a delicious treat after walking on Wollaston Beach. read more

Baja Box - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

This place is REALLY overpriced and the portions are NOT consistent. You get two tacos per order, but it's $8 per order and the amount of food you get for $8 is definitely not worth it and each taco looks remarkably different. If it was 3 tacos for $8 I may have felt a bit better about this place. Also, like I said earlier, each taco is built different. Not looking for a robotic build but consistency is key and there was zero. They were also really runny and very messy. Nachos were only okay. I probably won't go back. Food wasn't gross by any stretch, but just lacked good presentation. Plus, as I said before, it's overpriced for what you get. I'll be going back to California Taco Shop just over the border in Pawtucket. THAT place is legit. read more

FOOD: 6/10 SERVICE: 8/10 AMBIENCE: 6/10 RECCOMENDATION: Baja fish tacos The tacos here were aight... they weren't bad but they weren't super good either. The Baja fish taco looked pretty big but most of it was just batter. I also got the chicken taco which was really plain and simple. I felt like I could make that at home if I had the ingredients. Overall this place is pretty decent so it's worth a try if you like tacos. read more

Baja Box - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

I have one complaint that outshines their delicious ingredients. I have been going for 4 years now and they serve me a cold tortilla every single time! As a Mexican, it's embarrassing for me to half love and half hate a taco that's on the border of feeling like an authentic meal. Stop serving cold tortillas and my gosh, you got yourself a winner. I only came on here in the hopes that they see this so they can get ahead of it. Summer is almost here, I'll update my review soon. read more

Baja Box - Mint chocolate chip ice cream - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

I have gone multiple times and I always get the nachos. It is a large serving that I could never finish alone! It's great and you can always remove anything you don't want. Everyone I am with usually orders fish tacos and raves about them. They do only come two for $8 which I find pricey. The milkshakes are runnier than I would like but I believe that is a personal preference. It is very small in there and can get extremely busy at night. The often have a line out the door. Crowdy is fine though because you can take your food and eat on the beach across the street! The cook is so nice and he always makes me smile or laugh. read more

cold tacos.... cold cold tacos. the barbacoa might have been nice if it was warm. the chicken tinga is all heavy sauce. corn was grilled on one side only. not coming back here again. the cheese wasn't even melted. the fish tacos have a thick batter and were cold?!! I don't get it!? read more

Really enjoyed my first visit here. Good size tacos. Prices is a dollar or two high but still worth it. Flavors are super yummy. My favorite was the chicken tinga taco. Also the Baja shrimp was very fresh and tasty. The beef barbacoa is a classic. Great ice cream selection here too. Overall a great spot right on the beach with a solid, no frills and delicious menu read more

Great option on a warm summer night when you want to sit outside with the view of the beach and Boston. Not a ton of seating, there are three large picnic tables and bunch of bar stools, but usually not too crowded and you can always walk to the clam box or the beach to sit and eat. The food is pretty good, definitely recommend the street corn! Chips seem to be made on site and are good, too. The tacos are pretty good and creative with fun toppings, but minus one star as I usually find that the meat is always a little cold/dry, but overall a nice spot for a quick bite to eat!! read more

My boyfriend and I love the Baja Box-- it is a seasonal spot on Quincy Shore Drive so get here while you can! The staff at the window are always warm and kind, and I have never had a meal or ice cream here that was not delicious. For tacos, I love the Grilled Chicken and my boyfriend always orders the Baja Fish. Today we ordered the Grilled chicken, Baja fish, and Barbacoa tacos. We also got an order of Mexican Street Corn. When I realized that I had mistakenly asked for Chicken Tinga instead of the grilled chicken, the chef brought me two grilled chicken tacos on the house. Everything was DELICIOUS-- even the Chicken Tinga that I mistakenly ordered:) Exceptional food and friendly service will keep us coming back! read more

This place is so great! The location is perfect & the me u is great. I ordered the corn , fish tacos , shrimp tacos and the steak tacos and everyone loved it. It was cooked really well and the sauces were amazing. Definitely a great place to go to after the beach. There's seating inside , outside and you can always go sit on the beach. Other than tacos, the ice cream selection is so great. They have all kinds of flavors and I loveeeee that they do soft serve and hard ice cream. read more

The worst tacos a ever tried. Very expensive, tasteless food, no way we are coming back. Sucks that they are taking a nice place in the area, read more

This was an example of going to a place for the first time, not knowing what to get, and because you never know when the zombie apocalypse may strike, you decide to order virtually everything on the menu to try it. That was my first mistake. The food was great. Baja fish tacos by themselves will have me coming back. 2 orders because we didn't want to share? The carnitas was delicious. The chicken tinga was the surprise hit of the summer. Wow. Chips and salsa were good and completely unnecessary because 8 tacos was entirely too much to try and eat. And when we finished, well how could we not get an ice cream? Soft serve chocolate/vanilla twist - well it would've been down right unAmerican to not get it. I got a small. Pretty sure it could've feed an entire soccer team. Finishing the ice cream was my second mistake. I will be back to make many more mistakes here in the future. read more

So interesting that Yelp is presenting four year old, mainly negative reviews of this wonderful place. If you go on Google reviews are many and recent, some from just a few days ago. I've been coming to Baja Box since it opened and I've never had a bad meal. My go-to is the grilled fish tacos. You get two fish tacos. Some places you might get three but these are full of fish meat and fresh ingredients rather than a skimpily put together trio. The whitefish is marinated and well seasoned and the accompanying usual Mexican taco ingredients are fresh and delicious as is the sauce. I've had the fried fish and fried shrimp tacos as well and they were both excellent. It's also an ice cream place and everybody seems to leave the window smiling and happy with the quality and quantity. Prices are reasonable. The tacos are $13 and well worth it. I've been disappointed other places with more expensive fish tacos. The staff is quick and efficient and while there can be a line at times everything is made to order and I've never had to wait very long. read more

I got the Baja fish tacos and was pleasantly surprised that the fish itself was a pretty decent size. Sauces were good and the fish was crispy but for $8, you only get two tacos. This place was worth the try, decent tacos, but a little too pricey for me. read more

Drop everything and go to the Baja Box right now, please! Your taste buds will thank you! One of the best taco places in Quincy, even the greater Boston area. The chicken tinga taco is so creamy and savory, the baja fish taco is simply delightful and the grilled fish taco can be a great substitute for those of you who want to keep it lean but still bursting with flavor. They have a huge assortment of icecream, both soft serve and regular. The staff is nice, and though the wait can be a bit lengthier than Chipotle, I guarantee you the end result is far superior. For roughly $8 you get two HUGE tacos that can fill you up plenty. I cannot wait to come back and try the baja shrimp and street corn!!! read more

Baja Box - Baja fish, grilled fish and chicken tinga tacos! - Tacos Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

Things I love: the fact that this place is right on the beach, it sells yummy tacos that are fresh and not heavy feeling and they use authentic products (such as cotija cheese) and delicious ice cream- soft serve and regular with a good amount of options. They have Richie's slush!!! They have Mexican street corn that is also very tasty. The outdoor seating is awesome and the overall vibe of the place being a little beach shack, or box, as it were is cool. I have tried all the tacos with the exception of the fish ones because I don't eat seafood, and I have tried the street corn and the nachos and a few different ice creams. All of it was great!!! Things I wish they could improve: the teenage girls working at the front counter who act as though taking your order is a major inconvenience to them (not even serving you since this is a pick up at the counter type of place). I went last night and there were 3 of them squished in at one counter (way too many, especially given the fact that there is one register there) just talking and talking and laughing and looking at their phones while there was a line out the door. I stood there for 2 minutes when it was my turn waiting for them to finish their conversation and look up from their phones before I was even acknowledged. Then she snapped at me in a rushed fashion when it was time for me to sign my credit card receipt, and just went right back to chit chatting. Also, $4 for the tacos, even though they're delicious..... is a bit pricey. I will continue to come here but I hope the service improves. I'd bump up the stars if happened. read more

Good taco place, reasonable prices. Light lunch. Tried the fish and chicken. Not bad. No sides.

Terrible, horrible, no good, very bad. I don't know what else to say. This is someone's idea of Mexican food who has never been to Mexico, never had good Mexican food, and who doesn't even know how to cook. But what you don't know can't hurt you I guess?? read more

I was a little too excited when I found out they opened a taco shop on the beach this past summer so you can imagine my disappointment when I tell you that the stuff here just isn't up to par. I got chips and salsa. The salsa comes in three levels of spiciness and I got medium because that's what the girl recommended. It wasn't good. I got the Baja fish tacos and whoa, it could've been good, but WaAaY too much chipotle mayo...cmon, this is a fish taco- NOT a freaking turkey sandwich! read more
