Service was great and offered suggestions. Cute clean place, love the outdoor seating. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Everything we had was flavorful and fresh. Best burrito that I've ever had!!! Ceviche was perfect.

My favorite new spot for fish tacos. Yesterday I got the grilled mahi taco today I did the regular fried fish tacos and potato hardshell taco. All were delicious and fresh, so glad I found this place!

Surf and Turf burrito to go, served cut in half. Not a small burrito...

It's not that I did not enjoy my food here, but it just seems a bit steep for what you get: Fish ceviche - pretty good, not amazing, does hit the spot when I have a craving for ceviche. Surf and turf burrito - This is not bad at all, but is basically a straight up carne asada and shrimp burrito. It is fairly large, and it better be for $20. While I enjoyed it, I would not get it again because it is sort of a novelty. I'm going to round up to 4 stars because everything is alright, but there are a few places in the vicinity I would prefer for slightly pricey Mexican food.

Always on the hunt for new fish taco spots and this one is near the top. Love the freshness of their salsas and tacos and the batter on the fish is not too thick. They have a condiment bar where you can get raw onions and peppers which I think is a must. They have battered or grilled options and I got the fish, shrimp, and a combo that has both fish and shrimp in one taco. I do prefer the fried fish over grilled but grilled is also good on certain occasions. Very fast and friendly service and a very casual ambiance. They take your order at the front and you find a table and grab your own condiments. Great lunch spot for a quick meal

I came in for a quick bite to eat on a Friday evening. As I walked in, I was greeted and asked if I'm ready to order. I took a couple minutes as I glanced at the menu. Luckily, the place was not packed and I had my food in minutes. 2 Carne Asada Tacos 2 Baja tacos The Carne Asada was so juicy, and the tortilla was a perfect size (Parentheses it wasn't the little small tortillas) The Baja taco had shrimp in it as well as swine fish, as well as a big tortilla that was pretty close to looking like a burrito (delicious) Order came with an orange spicy Chile sauce that was perfect and not too too hot! This was my first time trying this place. The inside was nice and welcoming. Staff was great and attainable and I look forward to coming back again.

Inside

The battered fish tacos are really hefty here. I came here for fish taco Wednesday and the two fish tacos was $5.98, so about $2.99 per fish taco. Prices have increased for this deal but still a really great value and you can definitely get full off of two fish tacos. The whole taco needed more sour cream and salt in general but the lemon, onions and plentiful hot sauce options at their tables helped a lot! The condiment bar was standard and the pickled onions were nice and spicy, the lemons were juicy and big. Would definitely return if I'm in the area and craving a fish taco. Service: Very quick and efficient, had my tacos within 5 minutes. Ambience: Casual seating and chill vibes. Restroom: They have one, not sure of the state of it since I stopped by for a quick lunch. Parking: They share a lot with multiple businesses, wasn't too hard to find a spot on a Wednesday afternoon.

Battered fish taco
Jose C.

Great spot to stop at after arriving at LAX. We got a couple of their Battered Fish Tacos. They came with cabbage, pico de gallo, cream and salsa. They're farily priced for $4.25 but just a tad bit small. The fish was cooked perfectly, but the tortilla got a little soggy to quickly. The staff was friendly, but they didn't hear me when I told them I wanted to dine in. So by placing my tacos in a to go container, it will mess with the crispness of the fish taco as well as making the tortilla soggier. The tacos would have definitely tasted better if they were never placed in that container, and then having to wait again to get them on a plate. Will definitely be returning though. A quick side note, the tajin type of spices they put on their chile heueros is brilliant. Definitely going to have to do that at home.

Baja's Burrrito
Marissa M.

An easy 5/5 experience. I called in my order online, a Baja fish burrito. It wasn't ready when I got there but didn't take long after. I loved all the fix ins they gave as they were generous with the sauce inside. The burrito was massive and easily two meals for me. The price was reasonable as well. The Mexican good all looked incredibly authentic down to the free sides of seasoned chiles, limes and pickled onions which I grabbed a bag of. They also gave a side of a white creamy sauce and a super spiced homemade salsa. The burrito itself was massive, but there wasn't too much fish. Felt like a lot of cabbage and sauce. The taste however was incredible. I loved the mix of spices and salsas and veggies. Workers were nice and it's a smaller location. Would highly recommend for a quality Baja fish burrito.

Went by today, Sunday, says it's supposed to be open but it was closed at 2:25 pm. So have they closed?

They randomly close early & have hours with nothing like those posted. Plus they aren't good about picking up the phone to inform you of what is going on in this regard.

Is this place closed?

First time here and I am happy to say I absolutely loved it! Parking may be difficult on weekends…read more There's street parking or public parking (tiny) right across the restaurant. The service is top tier, servers are very well mannered and friendly. Inside is a cozy vibe with multiple tv turned on to sports channel. I loved their booth seating it was unique and cute. We tried their Oysters: the size isn't that big but they're fresh and delicious. Salmon: wow their seasoning was so good! And their spinach side was exceptional. Desserts: not the best, you may skip. (Still a 5 star bc this is not a dessert shop) Overall I would definitely come back whenever I crave some good seafood dish!

It's definitely solid and worth it! +peruvian scallop is good--it's dressed in Asian inspired dressing and it felt like I was eating Thai food. Scallops are fresh and we enjoyed it. +calamari was also a solid order. Batter is crispy but thinly coated and the calamari itself was tender and delicious. +lobster Mac & cheese was good but I don't think I'll order it again. It was comforting at first but the sauce got water-y midway through. -grilled oysters - we weren't a big fan of this one. It tasted like oysters in bbq sauce and we could do it without them next time. A true gem in MB. We'll try to be back more often!

Came here to celebrate my anniversary and left with a full stomach and a happy heart…read more All of our food and drinks were delicious and beautiful and the service was impeccable. I didn't feel rushed, finished plates were cleared without asking, and our waitress (sorry we forgot your name but you made this dinner amazing for us) was very fun and made sure we were good on time since we told her we were going to see Bruno mars at sofi. Everything we ordered was amazing. I was just a tad bit disappointed by their signature squash buns and their Dutch apple pie. The buns just tasted like regular stale dinner rolls warmed up and the apple pie slice was cold and bland. The salted caramel sauce was the star of the dessert. Only downside was how hot that place was with the sun going down and being directly at us. Crazy we're having this bad of a heat wave in the middle of October. I will definitely be thinking about this dinner for a while. We probably would've stayed longer for some drinks and hung out at the beach for the sunset, but Bruno was waiting for us. Thank you guys so much, we'll definitely be back!

We took our 13 month old and man was it so so cramped in there, parents, please leave your babies/toddlers at home or opt to eat outside (we couldn't since it was raining). We ordered oysters, snow crab claws, octopus blue crab ceviche, steamed Manila clams, and key lime pie for dessert. The steamed Manila clams were a total let down. The broth was so overly salted it overpowered the clams completely. HOWEVER, the oysters, crab claws, ceviche, and key lime pie were nothing short of DIVINE. We woke up the next morning still raving about them. Favorite dish hands down was the ceviche- a literal sea flavor bomb! We ended up asking for the pie to go and our server was sweet enough to not charge us for it for celebrating our anniversary. It was such a great balance and sweet, salty, and sour. Overall, aside of the cramped space and super salty clam steamer, we thoroughly enjoyed our food.

We each started with a bowl of clam chowder, which was creamy and delicious. It was also perfect for dipping that warm sourdough bread into. We also shared the grilled octopus, which was very tender. For our entrees, we went with the barramundi and seabass, and we really enjoyed both. Our waiter brought us with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with sprinkles and a candle for our anniversary. Such a cute touch! We got to enjoy our dessert while taking in the beautiful sunset view, which made the evening even more special. We dined on a Wednesday night when it wasn't too busy, and there was plenty of self-parking available. We did notice the valet sign, but it looked like valet service was closed that evening. Overall, we had a wonderful anniversary dinner with great food, attentive service, and a beautiful sunset view. And yes, I'm still thinking about that sourdough.
