“Great spot for Oaxaca food and cocktails. I recommend the chicken enchiladas and try the chapulines. It’s a nice spot if you want cocktails and appetizers. It’s dimly lit, so the ambiance is very city like with great service. They have carafe options too if you have a partner or a group.“

“Took my son to Baja Cantina during his winter break from college. We very much enjoyed the carnitas burrito and pork quesadilla. There is a charge for chips and salsa. The server was friendly and efficient, and he refilled the chips, salsa, and my son's soda promptly when needed. I really liked the Skinny Margarita. It is somewhat dark inside, and the tables are pretty close together. Overall, our experience was positive.“
