Baja Taco House - Huntington Beach

So, I got dressed, got in my car, and drove to the location from Hesperia—all while I was still on hold. This had been going on for over 30 minutes! When I arrived, I told the guy behind the counter what had happened and expressed my frustration about being on hold for so long. I asked how they could not realize their phone was off the hook. I mentioned that if this had happened with a boss trying to call, he would probably be fired. For your information, when I arrived, they weren't busy at all, so being on hold for that long was just outrageous.

I returned for a second visit since the ownership change, and I won’t be going back. The portions are now half of what they used to be. The eggs in my Mexicana were runny and unappetizing. I couldn't even finish my meal and ended up throwing most of it away. Additionally, the beans were pinto and the rice was dry. No thank you.

It's unfortunate that the restaurant was closed due to staffing issues, despite their posted hours and website indicating they would be open. I don't typically go out of my way to check if a restaurant is open. Fortunately, I found another place nearby on Heil Ave that was open and eager to serve tacos.

I had been driving past Baja Taco House for a few months now and decided to stop in. I ordered the chicken taquitos and my partner ordered the shredded beef tacos. My partner said that the tacos were good, but not amazing although the outer shell was very crunchy. My taquitos, although, tasty, had a soggy shell. The best things were the chips and salsa. I probably won't be returning.

The tacos are expensive, but everything is expensive nowadays. Food quality is pretty good. But today is the second time in a row I've come here excited for tacos only to find they're closed. Another potential customer was walking up at the same time and we commiserated over having both showed up for tacos both on a Monday when they're closed all day, and then today when they're randomly closed from 1-5p. So call ahead before you waste your time coming here during normal business hours when they're closed.
