Fish taco ftw. The combo of the beer batter (not heavy), mango and the "crack" sauce is delish. Beans & rice also yummy. My friend had the carne asada and was disappointed - was on the dry side.
The Baja fish burrito bowl was bomb! The fish was perfectly crunchy on the outside, moist on the inside. The fish + mango salsa + chipotle mayo = ????
Baja fish tacos are slammin. Honorable mention to any of the steak dishes because the steak is that good. Chipotle crack sauce ????Once they obtain their liquor license this place will never be empty.
Mushroom quesadilla is outstanding, love the nachos ! Great atmosphere, friendly servers , nice chill bar , not fussy, great spot!
Friendly staff and good food. I had the Baja fish tacos which were fresh and tasty.
Cheese grits during brunch were amazing. Also, the fish tacos/burritos were great
Lots of good vegetarian options : the mushroom quesadilla and the chili cilantro fries are great, and the Baja tofu tacos are a nice option when you want to mix things up.
Haven’t been to this specific location but get Calexico burritos and quesadillas pretty regularly in Manhattan. One of the best I’ve found in NYC.
Happy hour is 2 for 1 drinks! Don't be fooled by how easy it is to throw back the house margaritas-- they are STRONG.
The nachos are amazing. Love the quesadillas . Carne fries . Best marg pitcher deal ever (for NYC).
Delicious tortillas , and the crack sauce really is worth all the hype. My breakfast burrito was the size of two infants.
Go with a friend and split a burrito and a quesadilla . Don't skimp on the crack sauce !
The burritos are BIG, tasty and reasonably priced. Service is weak though.
Very tasty. Friendly attitude. Don’t forget guacamole .
That chipotle mayo with the carne asada quesadilla were a match made in Tex-Mex heaven
Great nachos and strong margaritas . Cute decor too
Wet burrito bowl is delish. It can also feed a family of four.
Split the carne fries to start and get a baja fish burrito . Always with extra crack sauce .
Quesadillas are rolled, almost similar to a panini . Tacos are good as well .
pork french fries and the fried fish bowl. then a lot of margaritas .
Excellent tex-mex. Great service and very family friendly .
Can't ever fail with crack sauce , but the DUMBO cart is way better! A side salad of sorts with my quesadilla though, that was a nice surprise. Tons of babies and strollers.
It's all about that crack sauce ! Get the fish taco , you won't regret it
Getting food to go? It's not on the menu , but you can get the agua frescas to go. I recommend the hibiscus . Perfection.
Pork quesadilla and the baja fish are great
The sauce. Oh my god the sauce.
Highly recommend the nachos and a basil jalapeño margarita .
Best frozen margarita I've had in Brooklyn.
The original brick and mortar (I think). The crack sauce is as addictive as it sounds.
This place is so good it is annoying. Just kidding it is not annoying, it is smile-inducing. ????
For a vegan option go with the bean burrito without dairy and crack sauce . The veggies in the enchiladas are made with butter.
The stools at the bar are too far away from the bar ! And they are bolted into the ground! But the food is excellent.
Excellent wet Baja fish burritos !
Blood orange margarita is the best!
One of my favorite Mexican spots in Park Slope.
Buy one get one free margaritas during happy hour !
Great food but they'll nickel and dime you. $3 for extra chips for leftover guac , $1 for a tiny extra sour cream portion.
Nachos were "meh" - 2 stars for using ground meat & not chili-in-a-can - & the fish tacos were, well , fish sticks. Yup, nothing spectacular to brag about. Next time I'll troop it up to Ho Brah's Yum!
Fish burrito with black beans is a solid choice.
Family friendly , but I'd tolerate sneers for their tacos .
Chicken Fajitas are great, gauc and chips , and baja taco
You absolutely have to get the nachos . And remember to ask your waiter for a gallon of crack sauce .
Lots of space. Great enchiladas . The dishes are cheese heavy so beware!
Wet fish burrito with the green sauce
Best thing about the crack sauce is the name.
Veganize the tofu taco by request and add guacamole .
Carne Fries are great.. ????
Great quesadilla
Burrito with crack sauce on the side.
Vegan options . Ask to veganize the nachos !
The BPEC tacos with green sauce (salsa verde) are incredible! - Rick Nelson
Great service awesome food. Drinks that you can't say no to. Well worth a visit. - James C
Tostadas are on point. Try the xxl spicy sauce if you're feeling brave - Diane Jean-Mary
Great beer, snacks, and bartenders. They even have a board game area and patio. Love it. - Syl
A bar with books and a fireplace? Yup it's pretty much one of the best laid back bars I've ever been to. - QB B
