Tex-Mex Restaurants in Coalinga

“I don’t want to talk about the bathrooms or anything but omg. There is a grill inside here with Mexican food. Baja Fresh. BEST.BURRITO.EVER. I pulled in here while traveling thinking I would just grab subway bc I’m hungry but was wishing I had enough time to get “real food.” Saw the Mexican food grill and decided not to judge it by its surroundings (the grill itself is really clean, and the lady was even wearing a hair net). Anyway, I got the ultimo burrito with pork carnitas. They grilled it for me right then and there- carnitas vegetables and rice a popped it in a tortilla and grilled the outside. SO GOOD. Vegetables cooked just right. Carnitas tasted like it was slow roasted and then marinated. Seasoned perfectly. It was huge but so delicious I ate the whole thing and haven’t even thrown away the wrapping yet - needed to write this review first, it was that good.“

“Reasonable quick bite at a gas & restroom stop between LA and the Bay Area. Baja Fresh is a good option if you don’t want burgers and gourmet steak (Harris across the freeway)Choice of meats, and tortillas. Generally tasty.However, I t’s hard to give a 5-star with pre-cooked meats that’s not very warm. I do like that the server gave us options to add exactly what we want and don’t want on the tacos.Friendly and prompt service Ann’s clean tables. Pictures contains current pricing as of 10/2023.“
