Glad I ran into this place!! OK, so don't blame me I could not resist diving into that margarita first! It was so delicious and so satisfying aside from being so beautiful !!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! The feeling in here is just so cozy and the person who served me, Victor, was such a nice guy, very accommodating, not only to me, but to everyone that came into the restaurant ! When you go someplace to eat, you want to be somewhere where people are happy, jolly and have a good good time! this is definitely the place that!! I especially love that they have a very nice full ( and clean ) variety salsa bar where you can help yourself to sauces of all different types. You know me I'm a saucy girl so I really, really appreciated that. Their homemade corn tortillas are divine! Super soft, great texture - I'm definitely a fan! From the salsa bar, red sauce is spicy! Green salsa is tasty with a little bit of a spice, really delicious flavor! Light green "cream "sauce is perfect to put on anything, not spicy! The battered fish taco was so fresh! I could Totally eat my fill of these!!! what's nice is they even have beer and margaritas - it's a perfect combination! All of the veggies were a cut to size, perfectly and tasted so fresh I really am enjoying it !! Shrimp enchilada, nice. Carne asada taco - perfection! Another customer ordered a shrimp ceviche, I'll definitely get that next time! After my dining experience, I was reminded of a place that my dad used to take us to in Mexico when I was young to eat tacos of ALL SORTS as well as other types of cuisine! Only exception is there weren't cutting their carne asada meat on a hallowed out tree stump! The preparation of the taco and careful attention to detail, very pleasing. This is definitely going to be one of my favorite places. Everything is tasty, clean and the people are really nice. And friendly! This is something about a good chip and authentic salsa that really lights me Up. If I go to a place where the salsa is not good, I never go back. I'll MOST DEFINITELY be back here, I truly enjoyed everything! read more

I came here around 3:30 p.m. on Monday. It's a small and casual place with low prices. I had the Chicken Enchiladas special ($12), which came with a drink. There is a decent salsa and veggie bar. The enchiladas were good but the enchilada sauce didn't impress me. Pluses: quick, cheap, friendly, decent food. Minuses: chips and enchilada sauce weren't great. read more

Our family loved this place! We were looking for somewhere close to our hotel, affordable and good, and this for the bill. The service was fantastic and everyone raved about their food. We got chimichangas, menudo, grilled fish tacos, beef taco and cheese enchilada and kids chicken quesadillas. We also had horchatas and they gave us extra for free! There is ample indoor seating which was much valued in the summer heat. We were here from out of town but my 10 year old said we should come again! read more

Wandered into this little taco shop and it's solid! I had their baja breaded fish tacos and they were perfectly fried! Not oily at all! They were served piping hot with fresh cabbage and warm corn tortillas! The plate had beans and rice. Beans were OK, nothing exciting. Rice was good. I tried 3 of their salsas from their bar and was underwhelmed. The service was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was clean and had plenty of indoor seating for such a small place. Overall, I would definitely return. read more

If your name is Baja Fish, customer expectations will naturally be high. While these tacos certainly look the part, the flavors are just okay. The creamy sauce tastes less Baja and more salad dressing. The corn tortillas were a bit stiff. It wouldn't take much for their tacos to be memorable. It just didn't happen on this visit. read more

Tucson has some great taco joints, and Mr. Baja Fish is one of those places. The service was friendly, and we received our food quickly. I tried the fish, lengua, and shrimp tacos. All the tacos were solid, and the portions were very respectable. Each fish taco had two fried fish pieces with a nice, flaky interior and slaw piled on top. The salsa bar is basic but has all the standard fixings to elevate your taco experience. Mr. Baja Fish is a fantastic casual spot to satisfy your taco cravings. Protip: There are daily specials posted on signs on the walls! read more

Where do I start, the food is fantastic and the service is as well. Highly recommend trying . It is worth the drive.

This little "order at the counter" restaurant is very clean and service is friendly. There's a salsa bar with 3 types of salsa, 2 creamy sauces, limes and cucumbers. We were given a plate of chips that were fresh and perfectly salted. Baja fish tacos are served piping hot, on delicious corn or flour tortillas that are light and tasty, and hold up for the life of the taco. The fish is crunchy and peppery and plentiful. Rice and beans are hot and a great accompaniment for a full meal. See you again soon Mr. Baja Fish! read more

Shrimp tacos, fried and grilled were great. Fish tacos was mushy. Convenient. Easy parking. Great staff

Great local Mom and Pop taco shop. Don't let the inconspicuous store facade fool you-great food awaits! We regularly do the ceviche, crispy tacos--both fish and shrimp--and just tried the taco salad. Everything is freshly made while you wait and delicious! The grilled items come with fajita like veggies--onion and bell peppers--while the crispy come with cabbage and tomato. A variety of sauces and toppings. The salad was HUGE and served up in a crispy flour tortilla bowl, loaded with whole beans, rice, lettuce and protein as well as guac and sour cream. You won't find anything like this at Rubio's! read more

This was one of those (delightfully) unexpected surprises. I was searching for a non-commercial eatery in the near-north area last week and tripped across this fish taco place. I dropped in and saw that they also had Lengua and Cabeza?! These are not always on a taqueria's menu but when cooked properly, are outstanding. I ordered those two along with a fish taco. The fish was "good" but holy smokes were the Lengua and Cabeza delicious - tender, shredded, and so flavorful. I can't wait to return! FYI, taco Tuesday means $1.50 each, all day long (but not the Lengua or Cabeza tacos) AND each one arrives completely plain (no toppings). However, there is a small salsa and fixins bar where you can add green or red salsa; pico de gallo; and shredded cabbage. A great way to sample their birria (my other fav), asada, carnitas, or chicken! read more

I was a total Karen because one thing went wrong. The thing that went wrong was me ordering through a third party. The woman working helped me through everything and I still used the "f" word. I apologize . And for the review. Service amazing. Food fabulous. And if they'll take me, I'll be back over and over again. Thank you!, Adriana read more

Maybe I should have tried the seafood here, because what I had was not good. I had hoped for some tasty, locally owned Mexican food in my Tucson hood, maybe something that might be elevated a half-step over the drive-thrus nearby. Instead it's worse. Mr. Baja is worse than all the drive thrus on this side of town. Here's what I tried: Tamales: These were ok Salsa: None of them were hot, but at least they were flavorful. Not bad. Al Pastor chimi: So dry, I thought the ingredients had to have been from the previous day, just heated up. Seriously, the rice was hard! The al pastor was too, and it had way too much sugar, not enough salt or spice (like annato/achiote). It was served naked too, not even topped with sour cream or pico. Definitely the sorriest rendition of AZ's official dish I've tried in quite some time. Maybe I'll be back some time for the admittedly alluring Taco Tuesday specials. But when I'm craving Mexican food, this is currently at the bottom of my list for Tucson! read more

Everything is amazing from the food to the service. Highly recommend for the best Mexican food in Tucson.

Needs more flavor used a whole tapatío bottle and there water green salsas on one burrito

Food was not bad! But the cashier/server Lupita was pretending as if she didn't speak Spanish, and when another customer came in and ordered something similar, she greeted him in Spanish, took his order and even offered a combination. Sadly, her pretending to not speak Spanish lost me out on trying out more food. Even though she was talking to her coworker in Spanish and singing the songs on the speaker in Spanish lol read more

This is a small place, but really good shrimp tacos! Staff is super friendly. Made suggestions of what to eat.

Great prices on Taco Tuesday for meat options only ($1.50/taco) makes for a good deal, but the tacos and flavor themselves were average. We ordered takeout and grabbed several meat tacos for the Tuesday special and the 3 taco platter with battered fish tacos so that we could try a variety. The platter comes with rice and beans which were on the saltier end for my taste but okay. My husband enjoyed the pollo tacos the most out of the bunch because of the char and flavor while the carne was a tad disappointing and needed a little more marinated flavor and the carnitas were average. I had the fish tacos which were standard (a little heavier on the breading than I like but still decent). Staff was friendly and the food was prepared quickly. read more

I expected this place to replace Rubio's fish tacos. This place was far from it. I was charged $9.20 for two tacos. A fish taco and a shrimp taco. I gave the woman $20. I was expecting $10.80 in change. She reached into a designer bag and grabbed $10 and handed it to me and walked away. She totally kept the 80 cents. Not cool. So I stepped back wondering if she would give me the rest of my change. She ended up serving the next person. So that should tell you something about this place. As for the food, it was okay. The shrimp taco was loaded but strangely didn't have much flavor. No sauce or anything. The fish taco was barely loaded with fish. Very skimpy on the fish taco. They load it with bland veggies and pico to make you think it is a lot. Real Baja taco enthusiasts know this place is just another Filiberto's hiding behind the Baja Taco name. If you don't believe me... Go see for yourself. Hopefully this review will help them change their ways a little bit. read more

GROSS, this is definitely not the type of place you want to go eat seafood at. It's pretty dirty and run down in there. Everything we ordered was a terrible. We actually just threw it away and we're on our way to a different restaurant now. read more

I came here for lunch today and tried a variety of tacos: battered shrimp, battered fish, grilled shrimp, grilled fish, chicken and steak. The fish and shrimp tacos come with a sauce that is really good but overpowering if you eat more than one of them. My favorite was the battered shrimp followed by the grilled fish and steak tacos. Next time I will only get the battered shrimp and 2 steak tacos. The steak had more flavor than the chicken. I did not like the green salsa or pico de gallo from the condiment bar, just the onion & cilantro mix. It didn't take long for my order, service was friendly and the restaurant was clean. On Taco Tuesday they have $1.50 non seafood or battered fish tacos. The other seafood tacos are regular price. read more

Came here looking for a decent fish taco. I placed an order for my tacos and my partner ordered beef. The place wasn't too busy; only one small family came in after us, yet somehow our order was forgotten. The owners were doing their best to work out of a confined area. The father and son were scrambling in a small kitchen cooking on a flattop to get the order(s?!?) out. I finally went up to politely ask where they were with our order. The owner apologized profusely and actually made me an extra taco. He proudly brought our food to our booth. They flavors were average and nothing to rave about. And while I waited I heading down a narrow hallway to use the bathroom. Someone had left a dirty mop and in a dirty bucket with dirty in the hall. The floors were definitely in need of some cleaning. The drink station was also stained and dirty. The salsa bar was inviting at first, but the green salsa was past its prime and there was crossover spills. We additionally had to ask the son to refill the chips as it was down to the crumbs. It just didn't seem like a privately owned little taco shop; rather another chain restaurant. read more

Okay, I'm going to need everyone to listen to me. Do we live in a desert? Yes. Are we a ridiculously long drive away from commercial game fish? Yes. Does Mr. Baja Fish make you forget the two former facts? Also YES! Mr. Baja Fish is the only (decent) dedicated fish taco venue I've come across in Tucson. I avoided it for far too long, snobbishly concluding that is Desert-Folk couldn't produce a decent fish taco. Finally, or especial Tuesday, I gave it a try. Have I mentioned their Taco Tuesdays? Hands down the best deal in the city. I got four tacos for under $10. And they were excellent. The fish tacos can come either battered or grilled (but why skip out on battered?). The battered is top notch. They also serve less popular fair like cabeza and lengua, both expertly prepared. And - honestly? - their carne asada leaves both Guero Canelo AND El Nene in the dust (yeah, I said it!). Now, after the wind down of Covid they haven't brought bought their salsa bar, my only critique. But it's humble exterior hides the echelon of Tucson taquerias. read more

Maybe I'm a sucker for mexican food, but this place has become my favorite hole in the wall. Now that they've started "Taco Tuesday" I'm even more of #1Fan. They give generous portions, their carne is grilled to order, their fish (for the fish taco) is freshly hand dipped again, made to order. Check out my picture, the fishes were ginormous compare to other taco stands...you get 2 fish fillet for one serving of taco. You xabt go wrong, granted were not gonna question where they get the fish in the middle of the dessert, nevertheless, I challenge you to eat one...and if your cheap like me, go on Tuesday where it's only "a buck feety". If not, ts only normally priced at $1.99 PROS: generous portions, bo fish taste and free chips and salsa bar. VICTOR, the owner is super friendly Con: nothing I can think of read more

Took an out of town guest in to get some fish tacos. Got the battered fish taco platters with rice and beans, a cheese quesadilla, and large margaritas. According to our guest the battered fish tacos were awesome, and the sauce on them was phenomenal and they would've liked more sauce. The cheese quesadilla was good. The margaritas are premixed and could've used some extra tequila. The staff, except for one, was masking up. There is hand sanitizer right when you come in the door. read more

Mr. Baja Fish was a-ok for a quick bite. While I haven't been to the other locations, this one seems to have a smaller menu and is order at the counter. Everything was served in either to-go containers or styrofoam plates. Our group of five ordered different items so I was able to see a variety of dishes. I ordered the chicken bowl which was served with pinto beans, rice, shredded lettuce, sour cream and some sort of pseudo guacamole. I skipped the pico de gallo. I enjoyed my bowl for the most part. The Chicken had a nice char and it was cooked well. I found the beans and rice to be salty- but I have a low tolerance for salt Others ordered bowls as well- carne asada and barbacoa. There was also an order of shrimp tacos- one grilled one battered. They looked good but I can't report on them as I didn't try them myself- I did post a photo for reference! What you should know: I didn't see too much on the menu that aligned with "Baja Fish"-standard items on menu- chicken, carne asada, barbcoa, plus fish tacos and shrimp cocktail. It's order at the counter You can eat fast You can order takeout easily. read more

Ordered the battered fish taco. It was lukewarm, soggy, not crisp, the fish tasted like dirt, lack of seasoning overall, and was just loaded and covered with chopped tomatoes. Blah! No fresh cabbage or tasty crema topping. I didn't even finish it after the first bite. Not going back. Plus the lady at the counter seemed less than friendly. read more

Great flavors, though the shrimp was over cooked. Will make this a regular stop when in Tucson.

It's good but I did not get what I ordered and my table (along with most available tables) was dirty when I sat down.

This restaurant has amazing fish tacos and very reasonably priced. The burrito bowls are also very good and don't forget to try their green and red salsa's. The facility is clean and the staff are very friendly. 5 starts for me read more

My review is based on a visit a couple of months ago... I've generally liked Mr. Baja Fish, but they did away with the $1 street tacos, which are now $1.50. That's quite a leap for some small tacos. So, that was a disappointment. However, as I was walking up to the door, I spotted a poster advertising a flautas dish. The flautas in the photo looked delicious, so I thought I'd try them. However, what I received was nothing like the poster photo. I recognized what was on my plate right away. They were just the super-cheap Deli-Mex taquitos from the frozen aisle of the grocery store. Now, I've enjoyed some decent frozen taquitos in my life. However, that Deli-Mex brand is absolute trash. If you microwave them just a bit too long, they turn bizarrely hard and dry. Seriously disgusting. These 4 Deli-Mex taquitos literally costed 95 cents at Fry's. Mr. Baja Fish charged me $8 for them. I could hardly believe what I had been served. I give them 1-star for that visit, and I'll grant another star because this place used to sell me some good tacos at a great price. Sorry for the bad review, but this has stuck in my mind, and I no longer feel any desire to visit. I felt genuinely cheated getting frozen taquitos when I was expecting authentic food prepared by a cook. Thumbs way down. :C read more
