Food was great, though for the price I thought there should have been more seafood in the bucket. The total portion of food was a lot, but definitely could have had more seafood in it. Even with that, I hit it two nights in a row.

This is the go-to place for a gastronomic adventure. The food is astonishing. My favorite is the Big Baja Bucket. It's always a hit.The restaurant is a bit narrow and cramped. It's all paid parking. However, the service is great, and the staff are personable and friendly.

Shrimp and Lobster bucket is my go too. The service over the last couple years has gone down hill and are not as attentive and somewhat forgetful. But servers are always very nice and usually wait is not too long even on weekends. Drinks are always well made as well.

Skillet I had was amazing. They also took our photo not sure if they do that anymore but we ended up buying it. Seemed silly at the time but we said why not, we don’t have any photos together as a family. Still true to this day, this photo from Rockin Baja is one of the few have all together. Thanks for the fond memories!

First time, after many years of patronage, that I am definitely disappointed! First of all, I was told they are under new management, so no, I can't order a burger after 3pm!!! What the heck is that all about??? Additionally, I always order battered shrimp (no shell), but today I was told they have NEVER sold shrimp that way. Now, I come every few weeks to enjoy an outting with my hubby. They gave me such a hard time- I had to finally say, "I assure you, I am NOT lying.." Finally, they relented and agreed to make it that way for me, but they wanted to let me know that the shrimp was going to be smaller! Well, I won't waste my time or gas to dine at an establishment that has changed the level of service from being a fine dining experience to poor one! I don’t recommend going to a place where you cant order the food the way you want and t. I see they are pushing the $70 buckets, but I am not going to be pushed into ordering what the waiter wants me to order! I still dropped $110- but got treated like an unwelcome and unwanted customer! Never again.

My wife had king crab legs and I had tacos. Both were great. Service was good and food came out quick. Would recommend.

Food was okay. Chips were stale and different than other locations. This one doesn't have a salsa bar. Everything else was similar. Lobster soup wasn't refillable (aka all you can eat) compared to SD location.Decor was also lacking compared to other locations.Or waitress was nice but strangely she and other servers didn't know what was included in their specials.Parking: You can pay at the machines or on the app.
