El Baja Chef Redondo Beach Reviews
Great ceviche and possibly the best fish taco I've had. Fresh handmade tortilla and really well seasoned fry batter. A bit of the beaten path on the backside of the Redondo Beach Pier by the boats. Low key, but fantastic food.
I love this place. The food is amazing. The salsa is addicting best. The service is great. Can't wait to go back.
Watched the rugby world cup 2023 here while attending Beachliferanch festival. This was the only place we could find in the area that screened the game. In fact, the owner went through a lot of trouble and even subscribed to Peacock to get it showing! Very, very few people will make that level of effort, and with a big smile. A smaller place somewhat hidden between the flashy places next door, it has great atmosphere, sport screens, heartfelt service, reasonably priced food compared to others in same spot, and cold crisp drinks. This is where you'll find your local welcome! And even an ATM 😁
Loved the small restaurant. Music was playing, sun was shining, football 🏈 was on TV and tacos! What a great dinner we had, service was attentive.
We ordered a burrito, enchiladas, crunchy tacos, chips and salsa, beans and rice and LOVED everything! We will be back!!!
Good food, music and drink! Service was great!

Best fish tacos and shrimp tacos you will have. House Hand made tortillas are key, hands down. Friendly restaurant staff rounded all out.
Amazing fish and shrimp tacos maybe the best I’ve had!!! Definitely coming back cool place too great variety of beer service was awesome
Fish taco was the best I ever had from any restaurant I have ordered them. Fish n chips very flaky and fell apart before getting to my mouth awesome very delicious
The BEST fish tacos I’ve ever had, hands down. Cannot wait to come back again!
The food was awesome, but even greater was the kindness from the manager and service staff. My sister has special needs and they were so wonderful making a dish that was perfect for her. We really appreciated it and all of our dishes were awesome! The atmosphere as well was chill and nice to just relax and enjoy the pier. Will definitely be back when we're in the area!
We had the shrimp tacos and fish and chips. The food was absolutely amazing and the service even better. The food was fresh! Just great quality. I’ll most definitely return and recommend to my friends and family.
Picked this spot because of the atmosphere. Was able to sit outside on the bar and talked to the owner. He hooked us up with our food even after the kitchen closed. GREAT MICHELADAS and fish tacos... I do recommend this place if you on the boardwalk.
Stopped in for an early lunch recently. Fish tacos were amazing! Shared an order of chips & salsa. The salsa is fresh and delicious; it has a nice heat. Highly recommended!
Got the fried fish tacos and the shrimp tacos, both were phenomenal and so fresh tasting. Such a little hidden gem right on the harbor with a view of the boats.

Cool little seafood and shrimp taco spot on the boardwalk. They have fresh hand made tortillas! The prices are a little steep but its fun in there good drinks and music they also have sports games on. The waitress in there is HOT!

Solid wet burrito! Get the green sauce, it’s fantastic. Their hours however are something atrocious. They open at 11 and just close whenever they feel like it. So when you show up for dinner you have no idea if they’ll be open! I showed up before 6 pm tonight and they’re already closed.

The bartender/server was lovely. Birria taco was good. Chips & beans were just okay. Asada taco tasted like the grill needed to be cleaned. Wasn’t a great experience but not a bad one, either.

I am not local so I found this place by the coast I wanted to try their fish tacos. Got there and their was only one waitress serving everyone around us. So after waiting almost 30 minutes we told the waitress that we were ready to order. We ordered some chips and salsa and took for ever to get them. Some other people that were their way after us got their food fast and served. I was at that time I was very hungry and disappointed that we haven’t even got our food out yet. So I told the manager what was happening and he just blown us away. So we just got up and payed for our drinks and walked out. Very bad customer service. I will not recommend this place if you want a quick bite by the coast area. Only if you’re looking for some alcohol drinks but rather than that I would not go back very disappointed for a coastal restaurant.
The new location in Carson, CA the cashier over charged us the home made tortillas were undercooked and the birra tacos tasted ok. 😠 and the food took forever.
Messed up my order. Food was garbage.
