Oh man, I get it's hard out here for small businesses but I've left this place feeling genuinely unwell. Had Fajitas - the chicken was fine, but soured cream and cheese tasted processed and fake and the guacamole was the kind squeezed out a tube - I wouldn't eat that at home let alone pay a restaurant for it. Please make your own! It's been a long time since I've had food that disgusting. That said, the staff were all really lovely.

Ordered delivery, after waiting for over an hour and a half, was told that the order had been cancelled as the restaurant was "unable to make it". Ridiculous!

I don't know why this place has so many 5 star reviews but I am very disappointed with the food here, the service is okay and the drinks are nice but the food, the food man is the worst mexican I've had, the chicken inside the enchilada and chimichanga were not fresh you could taste the gaminess of the chicken, it was dry and lacked flavour, the cheesy fries was over spicy and the spicy sauce tasted like the bottled chilli sauce you get at a chicken and chips takeaway. I won't be coming back again. I spent £60 for a family of three which is expensive when the food is below average, took the food to go as I'd rather feed it to the ducks than waste it. Not happy 👎🏼👎🏼

WARNING If this is your first time, DONT BOTHER! We ordered a take away which the staff member taking the order wasn’t familiar with the menu, and didn’t know what I was talking about. and when turning up early was made to feel uncomfortable and to come back in 20 minutes as he told us “40 minutes on the phone” with that I left, come back 20 minutes later food still not done. To get home to be given dog meat in a wrap and not tacos that I had asked for. When I called back and asked what happened to the taccos they explained it would be too messy which left me very confused max I’ve asked for taco not a lamb wrap. Wouldn’t waste my time or money ever again.

Ordered Takeaway on Deliveroo a few nights ago & one thing I can say is the Burrito is MASSIVE. If you live burrito’s you’d definitely enjoy it. The fries were cold when they got to me so that was a downside, maybe collection or dine in would be better if you don’t live too far. The Churro’s are amazing, they’re just a little oily but it’s fine. I wish the empanadas were a bit less oily but again, they were tastyyy. All in all, I would suggest this restaurant as it’s a good treat ! Prices are affordable & the food is tasty. Will deffo be eating from here again 😊

Didn't eat in so can't comment on the service and ambience, but spent a lot this weekend on food for a family of 5. Pleasantly surprised the portion sizes were generous, but sadly won't be ordering again. Reason being: lamb rack wasn't lamb. It was mutton. I know it was mutton so no need to see a response insisting it was lamb as that would be a lack of remorse on the restaurant's part for serving something not advertised. Furthermore, the meat dishes felt chewy and definitely not fresh. Almost like it had been reheated. It's because of this that I won't be ordering or visiting, which is such a shame as I was glad there was a decent looking Mexican restaurant though I now know better. Maybe there's gonna be an improvement? Guess only time will tell...

We absolutely love a Mexican and Baja did not disappoint! We were absolutely stuffed when we left thanks to the generous portion size! I had an enchilada, my partner a chicken chimichunga and both were delicious. Two sides of Mexican rice and dirty fries (for you spice lovers). I would have liked to see slightly more options for veggies, and parking to no fault of the restaurants is non existent so you'll have a walk of about 4+ minutes though that's kind of handy after a big meal! The staff weren't as friendly as some I've met but they were quick and attentive. Overall, good visit, we would definitely go back!

Had decided to try this place as it’s local to me in the area, I can’t comment on the food as we didn’t stay for it. When we arrived we was greeted by a very bleak waitress, was then sat for 15 mins & hadn’t been offered a drink until I said out loud as a waiter walked past. Then again, very bleak & miserable. It wasn’t busy at all on a Saturday night so no excuses. After we ordered the drinks, just from the atmosphere & greetings I decided to leave. Won’t be coming back.

Lamb ribs were hard and chewy. Both plates had a weird liquid around the sauce and with the potato tots you could taste the oil where it was deep fried needed a change. Staff friendliness was okay and speed of service also good. After We left we were to the restaurant is in front of, and I saw how the chef was coming from somewhere else carrying (on the street on a rainy day) a bucket full of uncovered frozen meat and going into the restaurant. Absolutely unacceptable! Such a bad food hygiene. Update: I can reassure everyone it wasn't vegetables as the owner explains, I could clearly see the meat, as the bucket was absolutely full.

It's been a long time since I had such tender, delicious and well battered fried calamari, which makes it difficult to write his poor-rated review. I ordered the calamari while I waited for my take-away chicken burrito. Based on the delicious calamari I was greatly anticipating my burrito back at home. But the burrito was so bad from the first bite that I can't figure out why there was such a contrast between the two menu items. It was like a fine chef prepared the calamari and a drunk monkey prepared the burrito. Something very bad happened to the chicken from when it was alive to when it was put into my meal. The only thing I know for certain is that whoever prepared it knew very well that it should not be served. I took the chicken-flavored cardboard out and offered it to my cat (who lives for chicken), but even she wouldn't eat a bite. She was so insulted that I had to go to Tesco to buy her. a packet of chicken that she could actually eat.

Lovely looking place, inside and outside. The menu looked decent and reasonably priced. Problem was that me and my wife were seated in the restaurant and forgotten about. Took over 10minutes for a waitress to talk to us & when she arrived she told us we could only order drinks with her and another waitress would come and take our food order. 10minutes later and no drinks or the other waitress, we walked out and left the restaurant. I'd understand if the place was busy but it wasnt. Had a great meal next door at the smokehouse instead where they made you feel welcome. Another time maybe......

Awful experience! I went their today and the staff were so rude and not welcoming at all. The restaurant was not busy at all and yet I had to “chase” the waiter to see where my burger and steak was after waiting for over an hour and half , to be told by another waiter “you’ve had your starters and know one else has” HIRE MORE STAFF, this is not the incompetent respond you give to your customers . Oh and before the “owner “ reads and responds to this review, I’d like to make it clear we left and decided to go elsewhere - the owner didn’t ask us to leave (bunch of incompetent staff) . I’d advise you all not to waste your hard earned money in this restaurant! Even Nandos service is way better!

ZERO STARS IF I COULD!!! Visited this restaurant based on recommendations from friends. I must say the service was BEYOND TERRIBLE! My starters took over 30 mins to arrive and had to remind them of th drinks I ordered. What rookie service! The best part was me having to go up to the waiter asking how long my mains would take to arrive. At this point it was coming to an hour AFTER my starters were served. Waiter literally told me "FOOD TAKES TIME TO PREPARE AND COOK". These clowns are of course in the wrong business. In the end we walked out (after paying for the mediocre buffalo wings which were basically covered in ketchup) and will not be returning here ever. Rubbish starters and service. Zero customer service.

Tried this place out on the off chance for a casual family lunch on a sunny Sunday afternoon. We have a 1 and 4 year old and both were well catered for. Was refreshing to have a children’s menu that doesn’t rely on sausages or chicken nuggets?! We were the only people there and was only served by one member of staff but was made to feel very welcomed. Would go back My husband tried the cookie dough with ice cream for dessert and would go back just for that alone?!

We ordered on the new Go Getters app, we were quoted 1 hour the food arrived in 50 minutes, piping hot. I had the beef burrito and the husband had the chilli beef. Both bursting with flavours although I might of added to many jalapeños as my mouth is on fire. Will definitely be ordering again, one quibble onion rings were lovely but sweated in the foil bag and were a bit soggy.

Great food! TERRIBLE service! 1) The starters were late, drinks served before the starters leaving us with nothing but sips of beer until we had to remind the staff for our starters. 2) Ordered Fish tacos and a pulled lamb burrito with Jack cheese. It was just assumed that I wanted soft tacos. Burrito came without jack cheese. Staff just seems really unresponsive. They didn't even apologize for the mistake. 3) There was a random photographer around going about documenting everything. Felt really anxious because of it. Staff seemed more interested in their pictures taken as they were serving rather than actually listening to what the customer wanted.

Best Mexican Food around! This is our 2nd visit here and have to say that the food is not only exquisite but authentic too. Portion sizes are generous so it's best to come hungry. The Big Barbacoa Lamb Taco is hard to beat and I can't help ordering this each time I come - so tasty and always served hot. It's a relatively inexpensive place to eat considering the quality of the food. Service is great but not pushy, with staff being attentive and very friendly. Would highly recommend a visit here whether it's for small groups or much larger parties. Never left feeling anything but highly satisfied.

I havent been to this restaurant for a number of years and I realised why. I ordered an 8oz steak which was just mainly fat and very oily. I also orders greens and beans, which I received about 10 minutes after I recived my stake and it too, was smothered in oil. So much so I couldn't eat it. I didn't expect greens to be cooked with half a tub of oil on it and the fact that I had finished my steak because there was not much meat on it. It was more like sirloin then rump. Disappointed and probably won't be back for another few years

Terrible. Waited 90 minutes for delivery (half an hour longer than quoted). Food arrived cold. Orders missing parts and included some random substitutions (mushrooms instead of jalapenos?).

Baja is a regular spot for us as a family because of their good choice of meals and drinks. The best chops in Bedford! We often order takeaways but you need to allow time for delivery as they're often busy.

Big portions, excellent food. Speedy service. Salad needs to be improved, not enough chicken. Burgers are fabulous though.

Ordered on Deliveroo, and I have to say, one of the best meals I’ve had in Bedford (especially as a takeaway). We had the burritos and Nachos, and both were fantastic. Filled with flavour and a nice kick. Would recommend!

5 of us visited here for Sunda lunch and everyone walked away happy. The lunch menu is great value for money at £6 and you can add dessert or drinks for another couple of pounds.I had the Hot Dirty Fries with soya chilli and they were out of this world. Crispy fries, vegan cheese and soya chilli - awesome!Others on the table had burritos, fish tacos and grilled chicken and all enjoyed what they have.

Came to Baja for an early dinner with 4 mates on a Friday before heading to a gig. I was surprised how empty the restaurant was for 7.15 on a Friday (about 4-5 tables plus us). We had a pre-dinner tequila and ordered drinks and mains. I ordered the Baja Coast Pil Pil (shrimp, mussels, & calamari sautéed in spiced zesty butter with cilantro) and was surprised when the waitress said it was probably the least spicy dish on the menu. I asked if it could be made spicy and suggested possibly add a chilli and she said she didn’t think it was possible to do this so I said not to worry about it.After waiting an hour and still no sign of the food we asked the waitress if there was an issue and she kindly let us know that they had a lot of delivery orders so the chef was busy dealing with these first! We pointed out we had somewhere to be, and were starving, and she said she’d give him a nudge. The food eventually arrived and my dish had been made spicy, seemingly with the addition of curry powder, because that’s what it tasted overwhelming of. I had mussels that hadn’t opened (shouldn’t have been put on the plate) and the calamari was a little chewy on the smaller bits. Not worth the £14 price tag for 4 mussels, 4 prawns, a couple of calamari rings and 4 tiny slices of staleish baguette. Given the quality of the food and service, this isn’t somewhere I’d return in a hurry.

The food is lovely and the service is great. The atmosphere is lively and the owner clearly loves what she’s doing, which is a great sign. The owner served us and we found her incredibly friendly. Our 2 boys loved chatting to her. She recommended us some dishes as we weren’t sure about what to have. I had Burrito bowl and my partner had Burrito in a wrap. There’s different spice levels to choose from which was great. Flavours were amazing and the best part was everything was cooked in a kitchen which you can see through. So theres no hiding there, everything cooked from scratch. My partner after eating half of his burrito found a chewy bit of chicken somewhere in the middle and the owner kindly offered to replace the whole plate for him. Obviously we didn’t get it replaced but I found the owner’s gesture very considerate. We had churros to share as dessert. Best ones I have ever had. Not sickly sweet and so crisp. I could go back again just to bury my face in those delicious churros!! Overall we had a great experience and felt welcomed. We both agreed that this place is a hidden gem and would love to visit again. We have already recommended it to all our friends.
