The place is spotless, super clean, and you can tell they take pride in how they run things. The customer service is top notch, the owner personally greeted us and made sure everything was good, which made the experience even better. The menu has an amazing selection, and the flavor profiles are incredible across the board. We actually spent a few days in Walnut Creek and didn't mind making the drive to Orinda just to get some authentic Mexican food. Long story short, we ended up moving out of state, and now every time we visit California, this is a must-stop spot for us. (come on we all know the best Mexican food is in CA - Bay Area). If you like beer, they also have a solid selection, including a refreshing hazy IPA. Thank you for that, Mauro! We've been here on three different occasions and made it a point to try something new each time. We went through all the tacos, my girlfriend's favorites were the lengua and chorizo. And let me tell you, chorizo is hard to get right, but Mauro nailed it, perfect texture and amazing flavor. The lengua tacos are not for everyone, but Baja Cali nailed the preparation of this meat, because they were amazing, you actually get the desired flavor. And the asada tacos are a must, meat quality is there. The chicken enchiladas? You can't go wrong, great cheese balance and flavor. The super burritos are top notch too. Some places skimp on the meat, but not here, everything is well portioned and perfectly balanced. And the salsas... they have it all, from mild to spicy, each with its own unique flavor and they're all My personal favorite was the aguachiles. The freshness of the seafood and the layers of flavor were incredible. I had it twice, first day was the way the house serves it (nice and spicy), and the second day I asked for it to be mild and both were amazing. Thank you chef. And if you are not sure what you want, ask the staff, they do know their menu. Andrea kindly advised to try the quesabirrias, and they deserves its own shoutout crispy, cheesy, packed with flavor, and served with that rich consommé that takes it to another level. You can taste the depth in the broth, and every bite is juicy and satisfying. Easily one of the best we've had. Once again, that broth man! (unfortunately we didn't get a photo of that since we were eager to try them) We're already looking forward to coming back to California, and as soon as we land, we'll be coming in hot for some real Mexican food. Thank you, Baja Cali Taqueria & Grill family, we love you guys. EDIT: The prices are very fair for the quality you're getting. Good, authentic food is worth it, and here you truly get what you pay for fresh ingredients, generous portions, and flavors that hit every time.

If you are looking for superb food, fantastic ambiance, and the most friendly service you will ever encounter, you will love this place. You cannot go wrong with their lomo saltado, ají de gallina, empanadas, or ceviche. Their drinks are dangerously delicious. The staff is so friendly you will feel part of the family.

As a Peruvian who cooks this food at home, I can say confidently: this restaurant doesn't deliver authentic Peruvian cuisine, and the prices don't justify the quality. We ordered the ceviche, which lacked the brightness and flavor it should have. The seco was worse...you can taste when someone hasn't actually made this dish before or even tried it themselves. The adobo tasted more like mole than traditional Peruvian seasoning. Across every dish, the flavors felt off, overseasoned or just plain confused, the sarsa de cebolla had cilantro! It's supposed to be mint! ‍. I've tried several Peruvian restaurants around the Bay, and this isn't competing. The reviews are mostly five stars, but I suspect that's from people 1000% unfamiliar with what real Peruvian food tastes like. If you've had it done right, you'll notice immediately here. The one bright spot: service was genuinely excellent. The staff was warm, attentive, and made the experience pleasant. That's the only reason this didn't feel like a complete waste. Save your money and your time.

Hit it on a Sunday late afternoon, which turned out to be the move if you want a quiet early dinner. We ordered the grilled fish tacos, the beet salad, and the mushroom pizza, and everything was tasty. The fish was cooked right on, flaky and clean, with fresh pico on top. Plenty of food for the three dishes between us. Service was good and the staff was friendly without hovering. The space has a cool wood and corrugated metal look, with sports gear and brewery signs on the walls. There's a full bar with a solid beer list, a decent wine selection, and indoor or patio seating depending on your mood. Valet parking out front is a nice touch. Our server said Friday and Saturday nights get packed, with live music and good people watching, so the vibe shifts depending on when you go. Sunday afternoon was mellow and easy. If you want the energy, hit it on a weekend. If you want to actually hear the person across from you, go when we did. Going back to check out the live music for myself.

We asked for sugar and condiments finally had to leave the table and go to a work station to obtain the items. Our food server dripped attitude probably because he was so busy, and it was evident given his shorts and footwear enabled him to run from table to table. The food runners and bussers were difficult to understand. The 4th Bore is there primarily for the local Orinda people who are fawned over. If you're not a local don't waste your time. I'm sure the evening service is better but our lunch wasn't very enjoyable.
