White fish tacos.. doesn't taste fishy at all.. excellent "pico de gallo" and great pinto beans and rice on the side... don't know what they put in there, but it's just so good. More

Where else can you get 2 tacos with grilled fish and a pile of veggies, cilantro, chopped onions, hot salsa, and freshly squeezed lime, along with 2 to 3 servings of seasoned white rice and black beans for about $8.00? Baja Fish Tacos provides great eats near Newport Boulevard and 17th Street. More

Anytime and every time I am in Costa Mesa which is once or twice a year I have to make a stop at this place. Cafeteria plus ambiance with really fresh and good food at a reasonable price. No wonder there is always a fast line out the front door. More

My son and I discovered Baja Fish Tacos on 17th in Costa Mesa while waiting for our car to be washed across the street. The portions are large and the food is great. The rice is extra tasty - think Wahoo's.. My young son even talks about our experience there and asks how soon we can go back. Highly recommended! More

These are the best fish tacos in the area. The fish is always fresh. All the food is fresh and consistently good. They have a salsa bar. The food is excellent and may also be the best Mexican food in the area. I recommend it. More
