Delicious!! The food is so fresh!! I love the chicken tacos. Great customer service, fantastic location and yummy! read more

We were walking around Ridgefield and needed something to eat. We've been there so many times that we've tried just about everything, except for Baja Cocina. You wouldn't expect downtown Ridgefield to have a taqueria amongst the upscale shops and math tutors, but guess what? Remember when Hilary was running for president and her opponent threatened there'd be taco trucks on every corner if she won? That wouldn't have bothered me one bit. I'm at a taqueria, I'm going to have some tacos! I ordered three: one with fried shrimp, one with mango and shrimp, and one with chorizo. (We went last week, so I forget the proper names. You'll see them on the menu.) The tortillas are the standard taco size, about 13 cm, so anyone can down a trio with room to spare, if you want an appetizer or dessert. They have table service, so pick a seat, grab or pour a soda or ask for a beer, and get ready. The kitchen is pretty quick, about as quick as eating three delicious tacos will take. The meats were fried or grilled to perfection. The sauces, fruits, and veggies are the perfect temperature and texture. A few Mexican hot sauce bottles are yours to use as you see fit, which this heat hound appreciates. My girlfriend's rice bowl looked great, too, so I'll assume this taqueria can do more than make some awesome tacos. They're space is a little cramped, being on the wrap-around first floor of a building with a staircase in the middle. It's an odd design, and not accessible, but you can blame whoever built this place decades ago. (Fortunately, I think you can get delivery, or a to-go order.) EV drivers take note: there are a whole row of level-2 chargers across the street next to CVS! read more

Baja Cocina - Sur - Signature Tacos, El Jefe - Signature Tacos, I forget my third taco. My partner got the Build Your Own Rice Bowl. - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Ridgefield, Connecticut

Great menu Asked for soft taco shell, got hard shell. Asked for lemon for my tea, got a lime. Ordered chips and salsa from cashier, and had to go back and ask again for them. No other customers were there, and an employee sat at the prime table in the front window and watching his phone. He didn't move when we came looking for a table. It was 2:30 on a Saturday and no other customers were there. read more

Love love love their tacos!! They have a huge menu board of options that gives me a new pick every time I go. The tacos taste authentic to me as well. Such a gem in Ridgefield and very close to the library which I frequent often. read more

When you want an easy, casual, gets-the-job done lunch, this spot is good! It doesn't blow you away, but it's affordable and a ton of options and fresh ingredients abound. We had our dog and had a solid make-your-own burrito where you can add anything you want. Would come back when I need something quick in the area. read more

These folks are fast and friendly. Food is always good, good option for a quick meal on Main Street

I wanted so badly for this place to be good, it's local and the menu looks good. But it is SO bland. Food for the whitest of white people who think mayonnaise is spicy. I know that's probably just what Ridgefield demands but it means you've really got to travel to Mt Kisco or something to find salsa with heat. read more

Delicious food makes my mouth water while waiting in line! I love this place it's so delicious and the employees are so kind

I'm a regular and can't say enough good things. It's a fast meal but not fast food. Happy servers, great menu. Tacos hit the spot every time. This is the only place I eat beef outside of when I cook it myself. read more

This quick bite taco/ burrito store is based on walk in, order from menu at counter , have wait person behind the counter prepare in my case two veggie selection soft tacos from containers like subway/ chipotle choose your items. Then pay and walk over to siting area should you decide to eat at establishment which I did. It was after busy lunch times like 2 pm window gives good service and good seatings!! Good tasting meal should stop in again. There is parking sign of busy Main Street which I followed a tight entrance but free parking at back .. read more

We had a very nice lunch here on Friday. The ordering format is similar to what you see at Subway or Moe's or Chipotle. You walk down an ordering counter and your meal is made fresh to order right in front of your eyes. Take your pick of 12 taco varieties (fish, lobster, pork, chicken, shrimp, beef, chorizo or vegetarian) priced between $3.50 to $5.50 a pop. If you want something more substantial than tacos, no worries, amigo, because Baja also has burritos, salads, and rice bowls with 26 different things to pop onto your plate. They start at $9 or $10. Still want more? They have entrée sized combination plates (think carne asada, sautéed shrimp, enchiladas, fajitas) served with rice and beans for $16 or $17. Looking to cure a morning hangover? How about a breakfast burrito, Huevos Rancheros, avocado toast 3 ways, plus all your traditional breakfast fare like omelets, eggs, sandwiches, pancakes, and French Toast. My rice bowl with ground beef, black beans, lettuce, pico, and a spicy salsa was absolutely delicious. I had nothing to complain about, my meal was very good. read more

Small and cute place. Good eats. Everything was fresh. The Guacamole was really good. I do wish there was a flour tortilla option. We enjoyed our food and the prices. read more

No frills taco place with tons of options! Their menu is a bit overwhelming but it's nice to see all the ingredients right in front of you and see that everything is fresh! Most recently I got the fiesta piña taco, but noticed it did not come with the...piña, so had to go back and ask them to add it. Found that odd. When I asked if it had it, the waitress went to check and came back to tell me no, which should not have been the answer/what she was asking given that it's IN the name! The Sur taco was delicious. I did not enjoy the elote which I don't think I've ever said and I do jokingly but seriously say corn is my favorite food. There was something about the spice used that felt more like something you'd get in the taco section of a supermarket aisle more than something authentic. Did not enjoy. My sister got one of the tacos with ground beef and it was horrible - felt like dining hall tacos with how boring and bland it was. read more

Have to say the bowls they were making with the meat or chicken looked very good. But I ordered the fish tacos. Way too fishy tasting/not fresh at all. Ended up not being able to eat them. Have to know what you're ordering here! read more

Freshly prepared and fast with friendly staff. Cute casual atmosphere overlooking the avenue. Great for teens or a quick bite. Fried fish tacos and burritos are awesome. My family prefers the chicken quesadillas and tacos. Yum!! read more

Great tacos Great soda bar with natural sodas varieties fountain style and cans and bottles. And the burgers are good too. I really like the Swiss with mushrooms and onions. I think it's called the Baja Cocina Burger. read more

Excellent quesadillas and burritos. Very authentic it would seem. I keep coming back so it must be good!!

We've enjoyed tacos from Baja Cocina on multiple occasions. The food is consistently fresh, well-seasoned and reasonably priced. Great to have them in town. read more

Great casual place for good tacos! Would definitely come back. The shrimp taco was my favorite.

The food here is always amazing, i go here everyday after school for a burrito or a fajita now and then. The employees are always friendly and always helpful no matter what. The spanish music along with the sports games makes for an amazing ambiance. 10/10, would recommend you go!!!! read more

A quick stop in before catching a movie on a whim. Better than expected! Full plate of nachos that was enough for 2. Husband got a burrito and the food all over his face said enough about how much he was enjoying his Baja experience. We would definitely come back for an inexpensive lunch or dinner. The set up is like a custom chipotle/moes bar to pick your toppings as you go. Seating on the other side of the small spot with more than expected seating. read more

Baja Cocina - Nachos with chicken, black beans, cheese, and a scoop of guacamole - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Ridgefield, Connecticut

CT lacks good Mexican food, Baja is closing that gap! Burritos are excellent, tamales are incredible. Love sitting outside in nice weather. Friendly staff!!! Ridgefield is lucky to have Baja. read more

I hadn't been to Baja Cocina in about a year before tonight. While they were always good, I think they've kicked it up to a whole new level. Three amazing and overstuffed tacos. Both the blackened fish and lobster tacos were otherworldly wonderful. And the steak & chorizo was perfection. Reasonable prices, friendly staff, cheery casual vibe. This place punches Prime Taco in the face and gives them a swirlie for best taco in Ridgefield. Bravo! read more

Shredded pork burrito flavorless. No flavor of pork, like it was boiled. No cilantro or any flavors in the burrito. The chips are decent, but the salsa just tastes like tomato, no onion, cilantro or lime flavors. It also has no texture, like it was in a blender for too long. Southwest Cafe' is so much better. read more

Love the Baja! Great food, great people. The food is always fresh, the prices are reasonable and you get a lot bang for your buck. Plus, centrally located, plenty of parking, although I can walk there from my place. My usual taco joint! read more

Great tacos, friendly staff, fair prices, great downtown Ridgefield location. What more could you ask for? I highly recommend the Rosarita and the El Jefe tacos read more

Love this place Food is great, Workers are great. My favorite place to grab a burrito.

A+ for the tacos, price and overall vibe. I like the Diablo. The kids love this place which keeps my stress levels down. There's a few cool surfing posters & artwork, but I can't get a straight answer on whether or not the owners shred or not. I get the feeling they might be posing. I want that Todos Santos poster...Owners, if you ever decide to redecorate, message me! read more

The food is really good. By far the best Mexican food in the ridgefield area. the staff there are extremely nice. And even though it's on Main Street there is plenty of parking in the back! Churros are good. And the bathrooms are clean! read more

I definitely had better tacos. I'm giving this 'meh' for now. But also to be fair, I only tried 2 tacos; hard and soft shells with spicy chorizo and ground beef. You can customize your own tacos. The delicious thing about my tacos are hot sauce. If there's a reason for me to come back, it will be for the hot sauce. read more

New collection of food on the go that is direct competitor to dreadful Prime Taco. Decor is simple, trendy and hip but evenflow is extremely lacking-cannot imagine seeing this place swamped. For layout, this gets a 1 but decor gets a 3. Now let's move to what really matters...the food. Sampled 2 of the tacos, both pork, the diablo and the Pina. Not bad-had some good flavor and porks were moist in both as they did vary in seasoning since one was made with grilled pineapple. Was jonesing for a seafood option but this has not made its guest appearance yet so will save for another time. They offer shredded chicken, pork, ground beef, beef strips and countless of accoutrements to garnish with-as mentioned seafood is an option but was just not available tonight. A nice array of sauces and a tasty simple guacamole that is good and is just not avocado mashed...they put a lot more pizzazz into it. The stud ordered the ground beef burrito with spicy sauce, pico de Gallo, guacamole, hot peppers, cheese, Spanish rice and refried beans...was pretty tasty and gets a 3.2/5. Fajitas are available and are reasonably priced. No margarita bar here but beer is available and the staff here is far more astute and speedier at delivering fresh food to its clients-even the taco maker on crutches was pretty impressive at balancing himself and layering tacos in conveyor belt like fashion. The sauces were decent, not great but again better than PT. Overall, I would rate this kid friendly and adult satisfying. Ingredients are super fresh and your food is made to order and made smack in your face so that's a plus...would I go back? Yeah, why not...but again, I am not running here but I could easily be coerced to go. They have a lot to offer from simple to complex and in terms of Mexican, pretty reputable for this cute town as the others don't seem to pass my test. read more

High Hopes for this place. Unfortunately a bit disappointing. We ordered a few things to try, burrito, tacos, guac, the ingredients is fresh but that's about it. There is no flavors and lack of taste. I don't think I will go back. very sad. read more

I have dined here several times and every time I visit it's a great experience. The food is great. There are a variety of choices of fresh foods to choose from for your bowls, tacos, burritos, etc. There are also several types of entrees to choose from which are also fresh and delicious. The staff is also great. They are very nice and inviting, and ready to prep your fresh meal right when you walk in. The prices are better than fair, and without a doubt I will continue to come back and I definitely recommend you give Baja Cocina a try! read more

I'm still eating my burrito as I'm typing this review. In one word: AMAZING! I'm from Southern California, born and raised, and let me tell you, this restaurant is what I have been missing since moving to CT. The California burrito was absolutely top-notch. Huge burrito, crispy fries, perfect carne asada, even the jalapeños were amazing. Will definitely be returning. Can't stress enough what a gem this place is. read more

We have ordered from Baja a few times, and have been very happy on every occasion. Not only has our food been delicious, but it often exceeds our expectations. Our tacos are always packed with protein, and the sides are always perfectly seasoned. We could not be happier with Baja, and are thrilled that they are in our town! read more

OMG... we drive 20 miles each way, just to delight in Gloria's (chef/owner) cooking!!! If your Grandmother was Mexican, you would relive your childhood!!! EVERYTHING is prepared with heartfelt preparation, love and affection. Parking on the streets of beautiful downtown Ridgefield is really easy... drop in and treat yourself... and your wallet won't suffer... in the least little bit... YUM!!! read more

Great options and authentic Mexican cuisine. Gave 4 stars just because on the pricey side.

Fresh quality ingredients always. The staff are very attentive to your needs. The seating is comfy and inviting. Beach lounge feel with upbeat music. read more
