" I had an enjoyable experience at Baja Betty's last week. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I ordered the fish tacos and found them to be quite fresh and flavorful. The atmosphere has a lively feel which makes the dining experience memorable. On the downside, I found the prices to be slightly on the higher side, but considering the quality and portions, it seems worth it in the long run. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had a casual night out at Baja Betty's and it was delightful! The vibe was just right, and the music set the perfect mood for a fun evening. We ordered a range of items from the menu, but the fish tacos took the crown! They were fresh, and paired wonderfully with the house salsa. The portion sizes were ample too. I will say our server was busy but attentive, which made the service satisfactory. Will definitely consider this place for future outings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Baja Betty's has become my favorite spot whenever friends come into town! The environment is always vibrant, and the food is delicious. My go-to plate is the carnitas platter. The flavors are reminiscient of traditional Mexican food which I often miss. However, last time the service was a bit slow due to a large party being seated at the same time. Still, the staff was friendly, and we had a great time catching up. Definitely recommend their special margaritas! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unbelievable experience at Baja Betty's! The moment we stepped in, we felt the warm ambiance and friendly vibes. We started with table-side guacamole, which was fresh and delightful! For mains, we had fish tacos and carne asada. Both dishes were bursting with authentic flavors that reminded me of my time in Mexico. Our server was attentive and even shared some great drink recommendations. Overall, an unforgettable meal that I'm eager to repeat on our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful birthday celebration at Baja Betty's! The atmosphere is always lively, and the decor adds a fun twist. The cocktails we're superb - I especially loved the mango margaritas! For food, we tried their nachos and enchiladas. The nachos were a feast in themselves, loaded with toppings. We were quite full by the end of the meal; the portions were generous but I've seen better elsewhere regarding the taste. The only downside was that the service felt a bit rushed, but overall, it was a great evening! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Baja Betty's for the happy hour special, which turned out to be an absolute steal! The margaritas were vibrant and perfectly made, and I loved trying their street tacos. The flavors wrapped in each taco were heavenly! The service was attentive and made our experience enjoyable. Some of my friends had nachos which seemed like they were enough to feed an army! Overall, I can’t wait to revisit this gem soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, we had a family dinner at Baja Betty's and it was delightful! The patio seating was particularly spacious, and the atmosphere was perfect for our gathering. We ordered a variety of items off the menu, including the burritos, tacos, and nachos. I loved the crispy chips served with fresh salsa. The only complaint I have is that the service was a little uneven, as we had to wait longer than expected for a drink refill. Nonetheless, the food made up for it. I will definitely be back!
