Upon entering we were greeted by a friendly young lady who took our order and payment. Everything is self service, ie., the condiments and drinks, etc. Our number was called for us to pick up our food. Everything was delicious and the soda was just right. We enjoyed our food. The atmosphere is great. My fiancé enjoyed it so much he text his dad who is a part time resident in Sun City about it. He wants to try it too! We definitely will return in the future.

Places like this live and die on their rice and beans and theirs are perfect. Every time I've visited I've been treated with genuine kindness. You can tell this is a place run by people who care, and it shows in the food. Don't sleep on their breakfast burritos either. They're not just big, they're actually good. I love supporting a place like this and I'll be back many times to come.

I loved the Tipsy Chick taco -- marinated and grilled chicken, spinach, grilled corn relish, green chiles, mixed cheese with chipotle sauce on a flour tortilla with a side of bacon bourbon marmalade. That marmalade -- wow. Guy Fieri would put it on a flip-flop and eat it. Friendly employees, quick to offer assistance finding stuff, using the ordering kiosk, etc. Dining area, tables were clean. Ambient music not too loud to inhibit conversation. (Although it can get noisy when it's a full house.) My only reservation is using an ordering kiosk the first time. It's pretty user friendly and includes options to customers your menu item. Only hitch is the "X" to exit a drill down into an item is small and black and situated clear up in the upper right corner. Please get the engineers to make it more noticeable, Torchy's, and the residents of Sun City West will thank you.

The beans and rice were delicious! The shrimp tacos were too bland in my opinion. They ARE very generous with their meat portions though. If you like bland food, these are for you. However, if you're like me and love a flavorful little kick to your food, skip the shrimp tacos. I added my own hot sauce to give it some flavor.

The shrimp is a tad more done than my preference but it was amazing. My husband and son tried one of each on the menu. And their favorite, special shrimp tacos! Even though it is in a parking lot. They do provide clean bathroom that is located inside a big empty building. We were there after sunset so It was a long walk in the dark before I reach the bathroom. I suggest going in groups of 2, just to be cautious.

While their tacos are great and tasty, it is wild to charge for salsa. I ordered 6 tacos and I was…read moregiven 4 small containers with salsa. I asked for 1 yes one more and dude says to me it is extra. How many do you want? I walked away. Their logic doesn't make sense. If I were to sit down to eat the tacos there i can squeeze as much salsa as I please BUT if I ask for them to go I only get small tiny salsa containers? I'm definitely NOT coming back. I'm not giving a business my hard earned money if they want to charge me for salsa. UPDATE REPLYING TO OWNER: Are you monitoring customers that eat in your establishment? Do you let them know to only squeeze once to add salsa to their tacos? Every single table has a bottle of green salsa and red salsa. I am a long time EM resident and I have my business to Baja Tacos from the beginning. I will take my business elsewhere else.

I tried the fish and carnitas specials. The tacos are impressive--large, double-lined soft shells that are generously filled. The fish was fresh and crispy, and the carnitas was delicious. You might pay a little more here than at other local spots, but the size and quality of the tacos make it a better value. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is the lack of a salsa bar. For dine-in, they provide house-made red and green salsas in squeeze bottles. They both had a nice, moderate heat, but I really missed having a selection of fresh onions, radishes, and cucumbers to garnish the tacos. Highly recommended for the quality of the meat and the cleanliness of the shop. I will definitely be back!

Everything is made fresh to order, including the chips and guacamole, and you can taste it 100%. The owner/chef greeted us upon entering and suggested a few starters. Even the chips were amazing, mixed with the guacamole and a little bit of lime. Ooooo The the real starts of the show came - the tacos. Now I've had a million tacos in my life and let me tell you, these are THE TRUTH! The chicken was my fav, followed by the pastor and asada. You can tell the freshness as it took about 8-10 minutes to get them to our table. So much flavor, heat, and juiciness. I wish I lived near here so I could come back often - prices are also great! As far as service, the staff was fantastic and the owner Edson is a character who truly cares about the quality of his food and the vibe of his restaurant. No negatives here - will definitely be back. Thank you!
