What Cary Cain doesn't like about Baja Cantina:
Not a place on my list as somewhere I want to go again. The food was fine, we had fish flautas and a shrimp tostada. Mom said the tostada was really good, but not filling enough. Flautas were very filling for me, but less healthy. Waitress wasn't friendly. It wasn't busy, no more than a few customers. Atmosphere may be better when it's busy at the bar. View all feedback. What Josue Strosin likes about Baja Cantina:
The best fish tacos in the VA beach, maybe VA. We have been here for 12 years and quality is impressively increased over time. Grill mahi is the way to go. We ate the Comida Pesca, several fish tacos and a burrito. Pesca was our choice with rice beans raw cabbage and lots of salsa. Best taco vote from our teens, go yours. View all feedback.

We wanted some Mexican food, saw this place, and gave it a try. Now their salsa isn't runny. It's more like a pico with tomato, onion, and cilantro. It was stil...

Can't really expect gourmet quality food at a dive bar, but c'mon now this is pretty bad for the price. The chicken in the nachos was mostly fat and the chips w...

Baja Cantina presents a blend of culinary delights and disappointments. Many patrons rave about the bold flavors of chicken dishes, notably burritos and enchiladas, calling them "a must try." However, certain tacos, particularly steak and fish, fell short of expectations. The casual atmosphere is complemented by enjoyable drink specials, enticing enough for a repeat visit, if not for the food. Service varied; while some described attentive servers, others criticized hidden takeout fees and automatic gratuity charges. Ultimately, Baja Cantina is a local favorite for some, though food quality and service consistency remain points of contention.
