Baja Mexicana Cantina: Small Servings and Mediocre Mexican Food

The Gulay gang convenes once again to go on a food adventure and this time our stop is at Baja Mexicana Cantina at Greenbelt.

I didn't check any reviews for this restaurant before buying my voucher from Groupon / Beeconomic. But even if I did, I wouldn't have expected what was about to happen anyway.

First thing to note when we got there was that there was nobody in the restaurant. It was a Sunday afternoon, a weekend! They should have customers right? But they dont so Im not sure if they even get a lot of customers at all. Although some customers did arrive after we got there. But still.

I immediately gave the coupon from Beeconomic to the waiter and we sat at our preferred table.

We chose three menu items plus some drinks:

Boneless Chicken Plato  295 Php

Half Pound Burger 285 Php

Carne Asada Cheese Nachos  285 Php

The sad and depressing Boneless Chicken Plato, unimpressive Half Pound Burger and dry measly topped Carne Asada Cheese Nachos. Added 3 Calamansi Juices and one Iced tea too.

We were incredibly annoyed and frustrated when we got the Chicken Plato.The serving was so small for an item that supposedly costs 295 pesos!

And don't be fooled by the photo of the Nachos, the toppings were just a top layer of cheese, and there is hardly any beef inside! And it costs 285? Wth Baja?

And there's a noticeable difference between the serving of normal customers who just got in after us, compared to our voucher bought meals.

Jeez, if you don't want us to eat here just say so already.

Cons:
Small servings (This is the biggest thing for me! If the servings are too small then don't expect me to come back here)
Doesn't taste that good
Not enough value for money
Expensive for the amount you get (It's the same thing over and over again, I get it)
Dark and musty smelling resto

Pros:
I find that I have nothing good to say about this place aside from the attentive waiter. But that's mainly because he has very few customers to wait on.

Overall:
nope, Nope, NOPE!
Never going back to this restaurant again.
I suggest you go to a different restaurant, like the one next to it. TGI Friday's.
