Bazo's Fresh Mexican Grill

Awesome food, period; best portion-to-quality-to-price ratio in the area

First of all, I don't get where this website rates the meal price $$- $21-30. You are going to pay $21-$30 to feed a family of 4 (3 if your family members are big eaters).

That said, it's worth every penny. You get a LOT of QUALITY food at a REASONABLE price. A single taco here is equal to about getting 1-and-a-half fake, fatty tacos at Taco Hell (Bell). A single burrito is a meal. It is a good size (and I am a big eater).

And speaking of tacos and burritos, that is where it is at. My favorite dish is the gulf shrimp tacos. You get BIG FAT SHRIMP in the taco (with healthy portions of cabbage and cheese)...not some wussy microscopic shrimp that will get caught between your teeth. And the chipotle sauce just brings a satisfying flavor to the taco.

As mentioned before, a burrito is a meal. Each burrito has the perfect blend of flavor and fresh food in each bite. A problem with many burritos at many mexican places is they load up on the beans and the beans overpower the taste of the burrito- in fact, I just ate a burrito in Portland, OR on a business trip that was just this. Not at Bazos. In each bite you get the perfect blend of real succulent meat, savory sauces and spices, and all the mexican vegetable fixings. My favorite is the shredded beef burrito, but the fish burrito was surprisingly good. Most fish burritos are nasty and tartar-sauce filled where your stomach is sick. Not at Bazos- I believe it was that chipotle sauce they have that was the trick.

I have also had the mexican pizza and quesadilla. Both great...you really cannot go wrong with any menu item there.

Even the owner is friendly if you get the chance to speak with him.

Bazos man...your stomach will thank you for it.

• Pros: Your stomach will be happy
• Cons: It's location is not perfect to catch your eye when driving

Eat fresh Mex for a change

by ipaint80

Great tasting, fresh mexican food, if you are wary about eating right.

Although I love mexican food, I am normally reluctant to eat mexican frequently, because most places make it too greasy and use a lot of pre-made/canned ingredients. Bazos has awesome tasting food, which is as fresh as it can be.

The service has always been great for a corner restaurant that most people miss out because of its location. Strongly recommened checking out this place if you like good mexican food.

• Pros: Fresh food, great taste, reasonable

Awesome Mexican Food

by hungryman23

I had my best Mexican food in Bazos. Bazos is clean, fresh and refreshingly good, qualities that you seldom find in a Mexican restaurant. They say they make all their food upon order and they mean it. You will not be disappointed with the experience.
