El Bajio is a Mexican restaurant known for its delicious and filling food, as well as its remarkable service. The standout dishes include chips, sauces, tacos, flautas de pollo, and quesabirrias. The restaurant is an ideal choice for college students, offering affordable prices and generous portions. The fresh ingredients and satisfying flavors make it a worthwhile destination.
Customers have praised the restaurant's amazing food, including the Texas Fajita, Arroz con Pollo, and Strawberry Margarita, all of which have been described as delicious. The tacos, particularly the asada, carnitas, and al pastor, have been compared to homemade and are a customer favorite. The whole tilapia is beautifully presented, delicious, and exceptionally fresh, while the veggie fajitas and sides have also been praised as excellent.
The restaurant offers a casual, "hole in the wall" type of vibe, but it is considered a true gem by its loyal customers. The staff is known for making guests feel welcome, and the in-house fruit drinks, including the highly acclaimed horchata, are also a highlight.
