Frequently criticized
- foodWOW FOOD WAS SO BAD HAD THOTHROW IT ALL IN TH E GARBAGE
- steakI tried everything to make this steak bowl edible — different salsas, lime, more salt, I even went back up and ordered sides of sour cream and guacamole — nothing helped this slop. What can I say about the steak… I’ve never actually tasted the canned cat food I feed my kitties, but the BF steak tasted like the cat food smells. And the texture of it was like it was manufactured in some meat press.
- food qualitydefinitely the food quality was a problem
- guacamoleguacamole seemed very processed
- meatthe meat cold, also looked like it was cooked and sitting for a long time
- quesoThe queso was disgusting. Cold, and also watered down.
- tacosthey heated them and put the same meat on them, just threw it. Yhey should maje new tacos
- tortillas(Store 30505) was incredibly disappointing. I ordered a 2 taco combo plate, and the tortillas were cold. When I returned them, they simply reheated the same meat and put it on the warmed tortillas, rather than making fresh tacos.
- Diablo steak burritoThe food was bad full of old tasting pinto beans and rice
- Impossible Bowleliminated from the menu the only vegetarian dishes such as the Impossible Bowl
If you're looking for fresh ingredients and a great salsa bar, this place might hit the spot, especially for tacos and burritos. However, be prepared for potential inconsistencies in flavor and temperature, as the food experience can be a bit of a gamble.

Frequently criticized
- priceMy experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I found the place to be severely overpriced, paying $15 for a burrito and a cup of water, which felt like double what the meal was worth. The burrito was cold to the touch and unappetizing, despite taking about 10 minutes to prepare.

- $50$50 for a waste of time
- basic stuffcharge to add basic stuff in

- high pricessmall compared to the high prices on the menu
If you're looking for a good deal, keep an eye out for their specials and member promos, as many find them quite reasonable. However, be mindful that some items might feel a bit pricey for the portion, so choose wisely to avoid disappointment.

Baja Fresh Steak Bowl Was Unbearable
I usually go to Chipotle for a steak bowl, but Baja Fresh was closer, so I decided to give them a try. All I can say is, who the heck are these people who eat here? Poor wretches!
I tried everything to make this steak bowl edible — different salsas, lime, more salt, I even went back up and ordered sides of sour cream and guacamole — nothing helped this slop. What can I say about the steak… I’ve never actually tasted the canned cat food I feed my kitties, but the BF steak tasted like the cat food smells. And the texture of it was like it was manufactured in some meat press.
Ugh! Go to Chipotle or, better yet, Costa Vida.
