I have been here a couple times and they never disappoint!
My husband and I decided to check this place out for dinner and it was a good thing we booked as the place was busy for a early Saturday night.
After reading reviews we went for the mixed dip (small) which was addictive with the salsa, guac and cheese dip but that was our undoing as we were full to eat our mains! I ordered their fish tacos which wasn’t that big but I could only eat the one. My husband happily devoured my second but then his steak fajita had to be takeaway as he couldn’t finish everything.
Next time, we need to skip the mixed dips and go straight to the mains. Staff were friendly and I will be back!
Great value for kids meals. Comes with a drink (apple or orange juice) and a dessert- 1 stick of churos. Just right without too much of a sugar high.
I especially love the chimichangas. Wife had gripe with her chicken wrap w rice & beans being too cheesy but that’s about the only negative we have.
Kids around but we def consider coming again for dinner drinks. Big2 drinks menu.
It is a very amazing restaurant! This is my first time to have Mexican food, and the fried prawn tacos are really delicious. I am not used to eating cheese...but tacos are really worth trying!
I don’t usually eat at Mexican restaurants but this place is amazing! I would recommend to order the mixed dips plate because the cheesy dip is spot on and flavourful! I also ordered the chorizo soft tacos and Yumm!! Service was good and it was busy on the Saturday night.
Fresh ingredients, generous portions! Ordered mixed dips + chips, tacos and fajitas for the two of us and we were completely stuffed. After trying amazing Mexican foods in LA/Texas, we wanted to find a place in Sydney that came close to what we had. Baja comes close, with more of a “Sydney” spin to it with the premium fresh ingredients and it definitely comes through to taste and show. The margarita dupped as “bajarita” was delicious! Perfect balance between of sweetness and tartyness, not bitter at all. Can easily down a couple of those bajaritas.. Overall a great establishment for Mexican in Sydney and would revisit in the future for more.
Service: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - quick, friendly - food came out in 10 minutes despite very busy restaurant
Food: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - deep fried flautas are the best I've ever had, and chimichanga is a lightly fried burrito and wow the burrito insides arent soggy at all
Ambience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Fantastic decor and great vibes
We ordered delivery pretty much just to say that we'd given every Mexican place in Sydney a chance, but we were pleasantly surprised by the result. The chicken mole and pork enchiladas were great, much closer to rich Mexican flavours than you normally find here. Those mains get up over $20 but they were pretty large meals. The trio of dips was even more unusual because, as well as being good dips, they provided huge amounts of them, so much that there weren't enough chips for them. With all the bland and undersized Mexican offerings in Sydney (like Flying Fajita Sisters just a few doors up), Baja seems like a real standout.
Super friendly service! We went here with the aim of avoiding meat for the night so just had vegetarian options. Plenty to select from with the basic nachos with beans the highlight! Loved the backyard patio - such a relaxed vibe on a Friday evening.
The ambience was great, the service good and the food could not be better! We ordered chicken enchilada and vegetarian fajita. The presentation was great. The fajita came with an assorted dish of rice, lettuce, cheese, cream and avocado mash and of course, black bean cooked to perfection. Chicken enchilada came with spicy rice and beans and the wrap was so creamy and spicy, loved every bit of this juicy delight. We had also ordered a pitcher of sangria, with berries floating around. Yummy. I am not much of an alcohol person even I liked it. The food was complimented with a bit of salsa and warm tortillas. Surprisingly, the salsa lacked the punch and salt... but that was the only thing I could find fault with. I started the review with a 3, but by the time time I was done writing the review I notched it up by another ⭐️. Will definitely come again...
Great food and massive portion sizes. Extra tortilla wraps cost $2.50, so either use your three economically or be prepared for an extra charge.
Very nice restaurant with great vibes in Glebe. The drinks were awesome and everything came out promptly. I feel some of the options had an excess of rice and beans compared to the meat you ordered. And definitely could have used more guacamole on the plate as it was delicious.
Awesome food. Cozy little restaurant. The fish tacos were great. Guacamole was deliciously good. Always order more guacamole.
The search for good Mexican food in Sydney ends here. Don’t waste time reading this review, go on and book a table.
In all seriousness, the food was stellar. More authentic than anything I’ve tried in Australia, and I’ve tried a lot. Huge portions and extensive selection. They even have a wide range of Mexican beers! The sangria (though not Mexican, but surely a crowd favorite) was a bargain at $5.
For those who may complain about the bright lighting or slightly tacky decor, it’s part of the charm. In fact, I almost consider alarmingly bright colors to be a prerequisite for good Mexican food. It’s reminiscent of my favorite Mexican joints in the states.
I will be back again and again.
This is the best Mexican restaurant in Sydney! We have been here countless times and always leave happy and satisfied. I always order the nachos and they are the best nachos I have ever had. The cocktails are amazing too and staff are always friendly. However the restaurant is a little small and can get quite loud on a Saturday night but it’s still really worth going.
I seriously missed the whole vibe of Baja during lockdown. The friendly staff, delicious food (huge servings) and the best Sangria in Sydney! So glad to be able to dine with in again.
Food quality is always very good and staff are nice and friendly. Fajitas 🦐🍗 are exceptionally good and served on a hot iron skillet 🥘!
