El Baja - Fontana

The restaurant had some cool decorations, the servers were pretty good the restaurant was pretty empty when we got there but started filling up. The menu has some great looking items, and we ordered a molcajete , rice and beans were awesome. The recipes are a little spicy so if you can't take the heat you might want to stay out of this kitchen. Some of the clientele we're a little low brow and we could hear f-bombs through the air, but I blame Fontana for that more than the business. Worth checking this place out, I'd say yes .

Came here to try the menudo as it was close to home. Looked at the reviews and they seemed to be good. It took over 10 min to get a waitress to get our order, then almost 30 min to get food. The menudo was bland and tasted like canned enchilada sauce, we got no tortillas and my hubby couldn't get the attention of no waitress. He was getting super frustrated when he finally got someone to come to the table. We had to ask for salt, our tortillas and oregano. I wouldn't recommend to come here on an empty stomach cause you'll starve before you get your food. The staff just stands around just chatting amongst each other. With so much staff, they should be tending to the customers and giving them all the attention instead of standing around talking and the restaurant was not even busy.

I am going to be really honest here this restaurant is not the best and it is all that great. My wife and I woke up late wanted to try this place and honestly we should have stayed in bed. Our waitress did not check on us, we ordered Menudo and tortillas. She forgot the tortillas and condiment had to call another waitress for the items The last I checked Menudo is not supposed to taste like Enchilada Sauce. Than our waitress spent time talking another lady in a black dress and that went on for 20 minutes and they are running around like chickens and the restaurant is not even full. Maybe 10 customers including couples. I'm sorry but from the outside looks okay but from the inside looks like a Strip Club.

This was a really nice restaurant it?s got a bunch of flashing lights flowers on walls ceiling! We had Tuesday Taco Special 1/2 price. The sauce was not great taco shells were hard on edges. The enchiladas were chicken with potatoes and vegetables and was good entree. The drinks had good taste though were not strong. It?s kind of pricey, the music is loud. They were out of sopes and fried ice cream that we tried to order. They say tortillas were home made didn?t seem like were for tacos. The enchiladas taco shells were different. The lights were flashing a lot. My wife daughter went into bar to get a shot and a customer was smoking something that blew smoke and it irrated my wife?s eye causing it to water excessively. The service was okay.,This restaurant used to be called The Big Apple years ago.

Food was really good, drinks were good. Atmosphere was beautiful. Service was slim. Very short staffed it seemed for a Friday night. Seemed like a great place for some Latin dancing with the DJ there and seemed like a lively place on a warmer day.
