Gorditas La Baja

We found this place on Yelp. The gorditas were delicious. The custard flan with berries was delicious also. Will be back

The portions are really big for the amount of food you get. I got their steak and shrimp tacos, both of which were very delicious. For background, it's a food truck located next to a building where you can eat inside. There is also outdoor seating by the food truck.

Gorditas were tasty but parking is limited to three spots in front and most are 20-min only by the adjacent liquor store. Price per Gordita is over $6 per but goes portion size. Bowl gives more filling for about double the price.Split three Gorditas between two people, not quite enough for a lunch so maybe two per person, but each is hefty. The camarones (Shrimp) was my favorite protein. Each shrimp was marinated and/or seasoned on its own, and then topped with small avocados and pico de gallo, great pairing and overall very flavorful. Chorizo con papas (spicy sausage with potatoes) was savory and just a hint of spice, and just a little bit of oil at the bottom of the Gordita. Tinga de pollo (chicken) was served with nopales (cactus). These had the texture and taste of boiled green beans, so next time I would ask for those to be held. The chicken was moist, no extra sauce but robust flavor. The chicken was juicy enough that the Gordita masa was falling apart after a few minutes, best eaten fresh and immediately.

Gorditas are great. So I decided to go with a bowl. Not worth it. You pay double for half the food.

Service was good, seem to be busy. Indoor and outdoor place to eat. The one I loved was the chicharron and my husband loved the carnitas. We will come back.

Gordita La Baja now has a physical restaurant location in addition to a food truck, which you'll sometimes see parked outside the restaurant.There are ten different gorditas available. They have a fluffy pita-like masa stuffed with varying combinations of cheese, potatoes, beans, rice, and guacamole. The fillings include asada, chicharron, chicken, and more.The best gordita I've had was the Chorizo Y Papas (chorizo and potatoes). Adding some of the red sauce from the squeeze bottle, it was a nice little mini-meal. The asada option comes close behind.The Chicharron Rojo & Verde, had fried pork with a healthy amount of fat. I don't care for that much fat, but I know others would love this chicharron.In addition to gorditas, there are nine different bowls, that have ample portions of the fillings in a bowl, along with the cheese, potatoes, beans, etc., as well as a plain fluffy tortilla that can be used to make a gordita or just eaten as-is. Where it would take me two gorditas to make a meal, one bowl would be plenty filling.I must mention the flan, which is not on the menu but is available at the front counter. It was amazingly creamy, rich tasting, and topped with raspberries and blueberries. I'll be sure to order this on future visits.A variety of drinks are available, including horchata or jamaica on most days.The service at the counter has been very friendly. I didn't ask, but it appears there are no restroom facilities; perhaps a restroom would be made available behind the 'employees only' door. Parking is problematic, with just a few spaces along the street, but a few more available on the side of the building; or, park further down the street or in some other business's parking lot.

Don't let the outside fool you, the inside is beautiful and the food is delicious, with the nicest people inside the kitchen! Btw The gorditas are pretty stuffed and big, so make sure you know before you order three for yourself, like I did. haha thinking they were going to be small lol I ate them all though but definitely a heads up.

Wow let me first just say this place is so delicious omg the flavor profiles are insane very tasty very homemade very delicious my food was hot and ready to eat the service was amazing customer service was great the lady was very nice gracias Angelica and the restaurant is so clean cozy cute and artsy very inviting I wanted to stay there and enjoy my Coca Cola looking out the window I loved it it was my first time I will most definitely be back very soon! Yummmmm!

The food is Very good. Customer service was good, very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was clean It was pretty food, I forgot to take pictures of the food first. I had ordered shrimp, carne asada, chorizo con papas, rajas con queso and tinga

Chorizo and rajas gorditas were perfection but their asada was so bland. It's a stark contrast. It's also a bit pricey imo. If it was more affordable I'd go back to try the other meat options
