Great atmosphere, amazing food and generous serving sizes! I've been eating at Baja Cantina for years and have never once been disappointed and almost always eat so much I waddle out, definitely a sign of an awesome restaurant.

Great food, fast service. Recommend the Californian Burrito and cocktails. Classic burrito is also good value. Large servicing sizes which is great. Big groups work well here. Recommended.

Great food as usual, unfortunately Sunday lunch service was extremely slow as there was only one waitress. We were hungry and the food took forever! They need to re-think their staffing.

The food here is good without being spectacular. The serving sizes are more than ample and they have a good reasonably priced wine and cocktail list. The restaurant is vibrant and a nice space to eat in. The service is very attentive and the food come very promptly after you order!!

pleasant atmosphere and attentive staff, but the nachos was only luke warm and there seemed to be way too much rice in the burriots. Otherwise, OK.

Service was great. However the chicken and pork was quite dry in the taco and tostadas. Ordering nachos and burritos was great part of the meal.

The food was okay, lacked flavours and Mexican authencity. I was expecting soft shell tacos and spicier flavours. Works well as tex mex but not for authentic Mexican food.

Wait staff didn't take my order properly. As a return customer food was average compared to other visits. No came back to ask if we needed anything else. The restaurant wasn't full so I can 't understand the lack of attention.

Food was just as fabulous and generous as every other occasions although I did find that our food came out rather quickly this time. Not that it’s a bad thing, we simply enjoy waiting for our food. We had after all just ate our starters, a little more of a time gap would have been nicer. Regardless, we had a really wonderful time there. 👍🏻

Very good standard of Mexican - tasty and not too heavy. The vegetarian enchiladas were good, but unusual, with a generous filling of capsicum & cactus, giving it a light-slightly sour taste. I was disappointed they didn't have the classic cheese/onion/olive enchiladas for vegetarians, but they were were still nice. The "small" chips and trio of dips was very enjoyable and huge! Excellent margaritas.

The best Mexican I have eaten in a long, long time. Great service, food and bar menu. Be warned - they only book 2 hour sittings, so if you are wanting to spend a night at a restaurant, this is a no go.

Guacamole and taquito starters were very good. Our mains lacked flavour. The chipotle prawn quesadillas lacked any discernible chipotle. It was really a spice bypass, perhaps to cater for mild palettes, but is inappropriate for a mexican restaurant.

Food was fabulous and of high quality and generous proportion. Service was good too. One thing I’d like to see changed is the spraying of sanitiser onto the table. It gets blown and spreads to diners and clean utensils and glasses sitting nearby. Other than that, it’s an excellent experience at Baja Cantina.

Great food and friendly service. Instead on mince meat they use finely shredded meat. Went on a Saturday night and by 7:30pm the place was full of customers. The chimichunga is a must to try. Bathrooms could good do with a good clean though.
