Fish tacos & potato tacos
Josh M.

Sorry lovers of taco nazo but you've clearly never heard of Baja Cali Tacos because then you would know where the best spot is. This little hidden spot is amazing and the fish tacos are amazing! They are meaty and come out still sizzling. The fish batter just gives it a next level crunch as you bite in and the fresh cream is great! I also throw on their signature green sauce that you won't find anywhere else. You won't have to be waiting 30 mins - 1 hour just for your food and at other locations it comes out cold. The service here is also great they bring your food right to your table and always with a smile. Thank you Baja Cali Tacos for the quality service. I will tell friends and family about this little gem.

Fish Tacos - closest to Ensenada that I've had!
Elyse W.

Sorry Taco Nazo but the actual best Ensendada style fish taco is HERE. My cousin turned me on to this place saying that this was the closest to the fish tacos we used to get on our trips south of the border when we were kids. She was RIGHT. The fish tacos feature a HEFTY piece of fish battered just right so you can actually taste the moist flavorful goodness inside. Taco Nazo has been shifting to more and more batter while this place still honors the girth and flavor of the fish. We tried other burritos like the chile relleno burrito, fish burrito, lengua and chicharron in chile verde and all were dank dank dank. Sure it's a hole in the wall but what authentic Mexican place isn't? Taco Nazo fans who don't want to spend an arm and a leg to wait in a ridiculous line, deal with a busy parking lot, and want BETTER tastier fish tacos then try this!

The establishment is clean, our order was taken and out in a timely fashion, and the fish burrito was AMAZING. 10/10

Been getting fish tacos here for years now. Most authentic sauce same as what they have in Baja. You can order anything in the menu and you won't go wrong. Always consistent with quality and taste. Nice ladies taking orders either by phone or at the counter. Small casual dine in and always clean. Have ample parking.

Best Fish tacos ever! Trying to keep this place hidden but they deserve all the hype! Tacos come out hot and fast. There is plenty of seats inside and plenty of parking. Highly HIGHLY recommend for some BOMB tacos!!!!

Calling all fish taco lovers to add this mama papa taco/Mexican spot to your list! It was recommended to me by a friend, I have been returning whenever I carve for a good fish taco. I usually get 2 of the fish tacos which are just enough. It's priced reasonably at 3.99 dollars. The battered fried fish is of generous size with right amount of shredded cabbage, a type of white sauce which could be ranch, diced tomato, and pieces of cilantro. I love the added side of the grilled jalapeño which you don't usually get at other taco places. For to-go, you will get lemon slices and green and red salsa that are not too spicy. It has inside sitting booths. It seems to be family owned and phones are answered promptly. They are open 7 days from 9am-8pm and you could order other meals of your choice. I have tried their fish burrito which is OK. You can place your online order through Yelp, Uber eats, and DoorDash.

The decor and ambiance make it a great place for celebrating a special occasion. I made reservations for my birthday dinner with a party of eight. I brought my own cake, and the staff was kind enough to store it in their refrigerator until we were ready for dessert, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the service was where the experience fell apart. Since gratuity is automatically added for larger parties, it felt like there was very little sense of urgency or attentiveness throughout the evening. It took quite a while for our drink orders to be taken and served. Our food also came out at different times, with some side dishes arriving well after the entrées had already been served. The only explanation we received came later when a supervisor personally brought out the missing sides and apologized, explaining there had been a delay because they had to prepare a fresh batch of rice. While I appreciated the communication, it would have been helpful if someone had updated us sooner. During the meal, our server was changed, and we hoped the service would improve, but unfortunately, the experience remained the same. The food and drinks were beautifully presented, but the flavors didn't quite live up to how impressive everything looked. My rating is based primarily on the food, but if I were rating the service alone, it would be one star. Considering it was a Sunday and the restaurant wasn't particularly busy, the slow service was especially disappointing. Sadly, this wasn't the birthday dinner experience I was hoping for, and I don't plan on returning.

I've been craving breakfast food for a while so I got the breakfast burrito to try. It definitely hit the spot for me, and it was so big I ended up splitting it with 2 other people. My friend got the breakfast bowl and I tried some. It was basically the same as the burrito but just deconstructed with quinoa as a base. It was all great! I love that Guacamaya serves breakfast all day for late risers like me. I really wanted to try the coconut Tres leches that was on display as well, but I think they said it was like $12. That was way too steep for me for a single slice.

The restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived. We ordered gorditas, guacamole, and nachos. I had a margarita, and my friend enjoyed her nachos with a refreshing cucumber drink. We also purchased a cup of *Champurado* to go, after sampling it - and it's truly exceptional. My gorditas featured a delicious mushroom "meat" and soy chorizo. The chorizo had a delightful kick - a pleasant spice, not overpowering. The mushroom "meat" was fantastic! The guacamole was perfect, and I appreciated the NO tomatoes. I didn't try the nachos, but my friend seemed to thoroughly enjoy the diverse ingredients. We had a wonderful time and I'll definitely be returning. I highly recommend the *Champurrado*, the gorditas (especially the mushroom one!), and the guacamole. The soy chorizo was also excellent.

We were craving some warm pho on a cold night, and Soup Shop sounded like the perfect spot. The plaza Soup Shop is located in is usually super crowded, but if you go after 9pm when most of the other restaurants and shops are closed, you'll find plenty of parking. Write your name down on the waiting list at the front podium and then wait for your name to be called. They have a few seats to wait right outside the door. Once we were seated, we were given menus. I really like that their menu has a lot of large photos of the dishes, so you know what you're getting! Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. For appetizers, we ordered the Crunchy Pork "Bao" since it sounded unique. Inside the bao is pork shoulder, mushroom, Vietnamese sausage, and quail egg. The outside has a thin, perfectly crispy layer that gives a nice little crunch when you bite into it. Really enjoyed these and would recommend! We also got the Crusted Parmesan Cauliflower. Not sure what's in the sauce, but it's sweet, tangy, and delicious! It's also topped with fried onion, cilantro, cucumber, and parmesan cheese. Also a winner! For entrees, we got the Chicken Pho and the Pho Ribeye. For the chicken Pho, you can get it with thigh or breast meat. I got it with breast meat, and they gave a good amount of meat! A little dry, but I appreciated that it was nice and lean. The flavor of the soup is really good. Pho Ribeye was also tasty! Hit the spot.

We arrived a little before 7pm on a Saturday. We're surprised to see so many Asian restaurants at this location! While the parking lot in the front was packed, we're able to find some empty spots at the back. The inside of the restaurant looked nice and modern. There's no wait and we got seated immediately. It appeared that their tables didn't have designated servers. While we could get help from any server, it could be quite confusing when we got asked the same questions from different people. Service was friendly, anyway. We each ordered a different garlic noodle. I had the Pan Seared Salmon with Garlic Parmesan Cheese sauce. It came with yummy Grilled Cajun Zucchini. The salmon was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside while moist inside. It's tasty on its own even without the delicious garlic parmesan sauce. The noodle was garlicky and flavorful. I had a small piece of my husband's filet mignon beef, and it's pretty good with a kick to it. Our daughter's Sauteed Veggies & Tofu looked good as well, but she said the sauce from the vegetables made her noodles soggy and not as desirable, and she preferred the noodles on our plates better. Our fellow Yelpers didn't disappoint, now we know where to go next time we're craving for garlic noodles.
