“First time going was a week ago on a weekday.”
First time going was a week ago on a weekday. I’ve been passing this place for years. Never got money until last week. When I tell you the chicken tacos from Baja express inn taqueria were amazing. You gotta try them for yourself. You won’t be disappointed. Call in your order for faster service. I also ordered guacamole and chips. The chips were warm which I loved. The guacamole is good but too many tomatoes for me. Other than that the food and experience was great try it for yourself.

“Tacos were delicious.”
Tacos were delicious! Ordered two steak one chicken w/ chips and guac. Order was ready as soon as I got there. Friendly staff and the order was right. Chips and guac were amazing, they give you the grocery store size guac w/ chips for $6. Onions and cilantro are extra which I found odd but didn’t care. Food was reasonably priced. I will certainly be back.

“I used to come here on my lunch break before the COVID-19 Pandemic.”
I used to come here on my lunch break before the COVID-19 Pandemic. I always get their chicken tacos. They’re so good. They have this spicy red sauce that comes on the side. When you dip your taco in that sauce, it’s heaven. Since I’ve been working from home I haven’t had their tacos in a while so this weekend I came back because I had taste for those delicious chicken tacos. I highly recommend these tacos. Best ones I’ve had in the city for sure.

“Food is authentic and generously portioned, the lengua is grilled crispy like I like it and steak...”
Food is authentic and generously portioned, the lengua is grilled crispy like I like it and steak tacos are good too food is fresh although last time I got the lengua it tasted fresher than this time ... Most tacos are NOT this big for the price but I don't understand why you have to pay for 🍋🟩 lime seems like it should be included. Nonetheless I will return. Thanks!

“I have my food for takeout I just had a taste for a taco so I ordered one chicken taco way too many...”
I have my food for takeout I just had a taste for a taco so I ordered one chicken taco way too many onions I hate when people overload onions you don't want to be reminded all day that you ate hours ago. I ordered the spicy salsa with the chicken taco which tasted almost spoiled, and I'm still tripping that it's $4 and some change for one taco though. I guess this is the going rate these days. I feel like if you going to charge a lot for a taco let it be a big taco this is just a regular size taco I can go to the jerk place and get a jerk Taco for $6 and it's enough to make three huge tacos. Other than that it's okay it's not bad. I'm going to call them and let him know about the salsa. It's a weird salsa I wasn't ready for that one it's orange and maybe a lot of Chipotle or something it's kind of weird I'm used to red or green

“Authentic, fresh, taste very well a little bit pricey but it’s worth it.”
Authentic, fresh, taste very well a little bit pricey but it’s worth it. You will have to pay extra for cilantro and raw onion. It should come with raw onion and cilantro, not lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese

“Taco bout real TACOS.”
Taco bout real TACOS.. It was my second visit, I told my wife that I had to bring her to try them. It's worth the 20min trip.
