This is now the sad excuse for their famous Brisket Quesadillas!! What a shame they have gone so downhill!!!

Wow! Sooo disappointed! We used to be regulars, and now? Such a rip off and staff seems like they hate being there! Something has changed, and it's sad to see! The next sign we will see from Baja is "CLOSED"! Sad

Tortilla Soup

Yummy! As always! Came for my usual tortilla soup. Can't ever come in town without stopping here. :)

Finally soup season! Chicken tortilla soup

This was my first time eating at this location, as we usually frequent the Roanoke one, and I've been to the NRH once or twice. Just as pleased with this one as I am with Roanoke - it's finally getting cooler so I started off with tortilla soup, because I had yet to try BC's version (and I'm a bit of a tortilla soup snob) and it was DELICIOUS. This is is exactly how tortilla soup is supposed to taste and the ingredients it should have (get those huge pieces of tomato and corn and other veggies outta here!) - flavorful broth, chicken, white cheese, avocado, tortilla strips, chopped cilantro & a lime slice on the side. So many places do way to much, and it's this simple! This will be a fave of mine to order during these cold months for sure. And the price is definitely reasonable. I make tortilla soup at home a few times a year, but it is a little tedious so it's nice to just order and eat while it's hot. Enchiladas, rice and beans are exactly what I'm looking for from a Mexican restaurant. And, maybe this was a fluke, but the salsa was not too hot for me to eat! Normally the salsa at the other locations is way too spicy to eat (and my husband agrees, and he has a fairly high spice tolerance) so I was pleased to be able to enjoy those this time. That's the only thing I wish was different about BC. This location doesn't look quite as picture-perfect as the Roanoke one - it does still have some painted walls though - but the staff is good and the food comes out quick, hot and delicious. And that's what matters the most.

Roasted corn.

My wife and I have gotten in the habit of going to Baja Cantina for lunch on Sundays. They have some great brunch items. We started with chips and salsa. Their salsa is very flavorful with a good kick to it. Some of my favorite salsa around. Next, we had the roasted corn. This is one of our favorite items on the menu. For the main dish, we had chilaquiles. Absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend this restaurant.

I can't speak for the drinks , but the salmon taco I had was dope ! Never had it before and just needed a quick bite . Service was low key as well as the place itself . The chips looked great but I stayed away . Would come back for some drinks !!

Perfect margarita

I noted their beautiful Mexican pots with fabulous plants around the establishment. We were seated and waited on quickly....ordered margaritas, which was a little bit difficult, because I don't understand Spanish and it seemed our waitress knew little English or we just could not understand her. This was frustrating, can you imagine how long it took us to order the meal. Once done when the chicken & steak fajitas came out fresh and sizzling. Chicken was tender and seasoned perfectly where the steak was tough & bland. The wrong beans were brought, but OH Well, no big deal They have a variety of dishes to select from. (See Photos of Menu) The establishment was handicapped friendly. Was clean on the inside and out. As we ate and drank our drinks, the waitress seated, a lady and her 2 children, one being a very young behind us. Immediately the baby started crying and no break, never quit. That was it for me !! Got a to go box and we were out of there. Lenise, my good friend said her sister loved the place, so now we can say .. we tried it. Hope you have better luck, have a good day.

When you go to your favorite Mexican food restaurant, you imagine that people really eat these…read morekinds of things in Mexico. Of course, in your heart of hearts, you know that they don't. Vaquero's is what they really eat. These kinds of tortillas can only be made by the old grandmother's in Mexico, who have never been to the US, and never plan on going. These tortillas here are obviously grown in house on a Metate (ok, I had to look that up), And the meats taste like they are marinated for days, in order to taste like this. My favorite is the Alambre Burrito. If you accidentally order something else in addition to the Burrito, you will probably be taking it home. And when you take home your Taco's, don't forget to take the chips with you. The chips are also obviously made in house, and fried in Lard before coming to every table.

Drinks are a little strange, only a couple options come in cups (unsweet tea, juices) and the test are single serving plastic bottles like you'd get from a store. I've seen this at other places, not a knock on the place, just an observation. Food was delivered quickly and it was super hot (freshly made), which I liked. My burrito was good, the bacon was crisp, not burnt, and the fries and steak were hot. I wish there was more cheese and sour cream in the LARGE burrito, but otherwise it was really good. The surf & turf was good as well. They have a salsa bar with various salsa options you can try/add to your meal. They are spicy and really good!! I think we'll be back to try the fajitas (huge plate!) and some of the other burrito options. They serve breakfast too, so would like to try that as well.

While I don't care for chunky salsa, I would want it to be a little thicker and more flavorful. It came with two other salsas, which I did not care for. I did have to ask for a refill of salsa. I always get excited seeing mole and spicy options on the menu, so I got the cheese enchilada with mole and spicy chipotle sauce. I wasn't warned about the spice level, and it was very spicy with a strong chipotle taste that I couldn't eat. I also wasn't checked on to make sure I enjoyed the food, and I had to flag the server down for my check. I was expecting this place to be better.

Their salsa and bean dip were different than I've had at other Mexican places which was nice. We ordered the chile con queso which was nothing special and would not recommend. Tasted like regular ball park nachos and cheese. We ordered the chicken fajitas for two - I'll begin with their overly sized tortillas. I don't see the reason behind this and they don't provide enough meat and onions for the use of all 6-8 tortillas provided. Ideally you and another person will eat 3 total before the meat is gone. Now - WHERE THE HECK are the onions. We were provided with such a small amount that we had to proportion it so we each got some. Ideally, it would only serve one fajita with the size of their tortillas. They should really figure out the portions here. SECOND - for it not being busy not sure why our food took an hour before we received it. It's like they could only prepare one tables food at a time. Our server didn't apologize until she handed us the bill. Will not be coming back as there are better Mexican options around.

When we were first seated, we were given chips with a variety of dips, including mild and medium salsa and beans with mole. We assumed the beans had something like birria in them, but after we had already started eating, the waiter came and told us they contained pork. That's something that should definitely be communicated upfront, especially for guests who don't eat pork. Unfortunately, things didn't improve from there. My friend ordered a Sprite, and the glass it came in was visibly dirty, with green particles floating in the drink. While waiting to order our main dishes, we also noticed that the water pitcher placed on our table was not clean. At that point, we felt uncomfortable continuing our meal and decided to leave and go somewhere else. It's a shame because the place really is beautiful. Adding two stars because my drink was good and the queso was okay.
