    Another grand opening in Whittier I attended today! Live Mariachi & $1 fish tacos till 4pm I ordered 6 fish tacos to go /sour cream on the side please! I get home & only 2 sour creams for 6 fish tacos ‍ Overall food is tasty! Service is kind! Give them a try if you haven't yet!

    Service was super quick and easy going. Prices are very reasonable and the quality of the fish tacos are superb. But if you visited Tacos Baja before well you already knew that. The tortillas used are full of flavor. This is their new location just down the street. Place has been upgraded and is comfortable but some of the fixtures are fixes and not newly replaced. Seems like they haven't quite dialed in the operations yet. Overall a very good experience.

    Tacos Baja has been a staple in my household. Great quality and delicious flavor! Always a quick to-go for lunch or dinner. I usually get the fish tacos, I tried the shrimp taco today, I love their breading! Highly recommend and love their new location!!!

    I enjoyed this spot for a quick grab and go. The staff was friendly and my order of three tacos came up very fast. The tacos were a little too drenched in oil for my liking but overall the food was good and I would visit again in a pinch where I need a quick grab and go meal.

    The food here is amazing. Great service & friendly staff. The seating area is so clean & spacious. I'll definitely be visiting here again! The Coctel de Camaron is perfectly seasoned, no need to add lime, & the shrimp are a decent size. The fish, shrimp, & carne asada tacos are Baja style with lots of toppings. The red salsa is so flavorful! The tacos are pretty big & filling! These are not your ordinary two-bite taquero tacos. & don't forget the Chiles Güeros sprinkled with chili powder, so good! I had the #4 Combo which includes a Small Coctel de Camarón, 1 Tostada de Ceviche (I chose Jaiba), & a drink for $10.99. Great deal if you're looking to try a little bit of everything. They offer self serve water cups with cucumber & lemon slices, which is nice while you wait for your order. The parking lot is large & much more spacious than the location on Painter Ave. Great location & food overall. Definitely a new favorite in the area!

    Heading to another fish taco place when we tripped across this place. Lucky us! Service is quick. Service is with a smile, polite. Prices are on point . Place was clean. Jayden was our first point of contact, answered our questions, made suggestions, great attitude! Had the fish tacos, plate. Came with rice and beans, and a drink! Also had the fish ceviche. Tacos were really good, the ceviche was really good. But the rice and beans were Devine!!! Overall, great experience. Glad we went to Tacos Baja!!! Good stuff!

    Went there for fish taco Wednesday $1.59. There was a line. We spent about 20 mins waiting in line. For the price, it's good. Fish a bit oily. Parking in the back.

    PSA: Tacos Baja @tacosbaja__ remain the best fish tacos in LA County. This place would be worth the drive, even from Phoenix. Must try!!! Our old favorite taco haunt, when we lived down the street, that continues to sustain us when visiting Whittier, CA. The food is a five star but the place could use some housekeeping. I ordered: -Fish Taco Plate -Piña

    Great food and good prices .  I had the fish tacos  and my dude had the mojarra.  I recommend  you try .

    What's the difference between taco de pescado and taco de Baja?

    Hello, i’m glad you asked this question. it’s actually a very common question asked. The difference is the fish taco is just fish with a corn tortilla and the baja taco is fish and shrimp with a bigger flour tortilla than the corn.

    Does anyone know what happened to their Lakewood-Downey location?

    I went there in Dec 2019 and they had a note on the building saying they were closing that location and opening a new location also in Downey. That's the last I heard.

    Is the $.99 fish taco deal on Wednesday all day long?

    Yes it is! Go get some tacos!

    Do they have an updated phone number?

    I think they went out of business as I drove by two days ago and it was dark at 6:30pm. I've called for two days now and the number is disconnected

    Are they still open with the coronavirus restrictions on businesses? I called the number for this restaurant and it's not going thru.

    They are open

    Do they have fries or nachos?

    They have fries! And they're delicious

    Can you order fish tacos without batter for people with gluten allergy?

    Idk.

    What type of fish do they use for their fish tacos?

    I think is Talapia

    Can you get the 99 cent fish tacos to go?

    Yes ;)

    Do they clean their shrimp?

    Yes

This place instantly became one of my favorites after just one visit. From the moment you walk in, the whole vibe hits you--the moody, neon-lit ambiance sets the tone perfectly. It feels elevated, a little edgy, and honestly just the kind of spot you want to spend your night at. The music is curated so well. Not too loud, not too mellow--just the right balance where you can vibe, have a conversation, and still feel the energy of the room. You can tell they actually care about the experience, not just throwing a playlist together. Now let's talk about the drinks... because that's really where they shine. Every cocktail feels intentional and crafted with care. You can taste the quality immediately--nothing watered down, nothing basic. They have a really cool mix of classic cocktails and modern twists, and even the familiar drinks feel elevated. It's the kind of place where you want to try something new every round because you trust the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. Service was on point too. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain drinks and made great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. I came in not knowing what to expect, and left already planning my next visit. If you're in Uptown Whittier and looking for a spot with great energy, amazing cocktails, and a full vibe--The Vandalist is it. Thank me later

He made excellent recommendations, checked in at just the right moments, and created a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere without ever feeling intrusive.

Caesar salad (4/5) - this was your classic Caesar salad that accompanied our pasta perfectly. Fried zucchini (5/5) - I love that the zucchini was sliced and crispy. The breading to zucchini ratio was perfect and paired perfect perfectly with a marinara sauce. Short rib pappardelle (5/5) - this pasta dish was the absolute highlight of our meal. In order comes with two servings, which is more than enough pasta for a second meal for two people. The short rib was flavorful and tender, and the Alfredo sauce and fresh pasta were amazing.
