Baja Fresh is shutting down manana.

Too bad, even though the Folsom location had some quality problems, I still liked the chain.

Does that now bring us closer to a ratio of 1 mexican restaurant per 100 residents?

Not to upset about that one, that would be the last place I would go for mexican food.

My kids liked this one, and the location was easy for me...
I worried about this one, as the audience was diminishing over time from my observation.

I was wondering if it was closing. I was in the parking lot the other day and noticed the sign was gone. What a bummer. We used to eat there occasionally. Liked the food.

Not that I like seeing places go out of business, but no heartfelt loss for me on this one.

I went to it several times as the wife kept on wanting to go there, but I found myself never being impressed with what I had ordered. I liked their salsa selection, but the tacos were always lacking. Eventually, the wife stopped wanting to go there as so often they would screw up her order.

I never went there, prefer La Fiesta instead

just sad to hear about places that don't make it, regardless the circumstances, that was several people's livelihood, now gone... meaning more folks have now joined the ranks of the unemployed.

We drove by the sign is gone but they appear to be still serving. Bummer if they close, but honestly I haven't gone there in some time. Many other better choices for Mexican food, IMO.

I liked certain items on the menu, and I will kind of miss it. But in actuality, the last time I visited, I vowed not to come back to eat solo, the prices had gone up so much it was no longer worth it. I think it was about $12 for a burrito, guac+chips and a drink. My wife and I usually share the guac and drink, so that made it almost reasonable.

I used to go to the original chains in Southern CA when the prices were somewhat reasoable, but the one in folsom (IMO) had very poor quality and bad service. Chipotle, Dos, and Rubios is much better.

Now its interesting to see which one is next to fall off this bad economy cliff

a) Rubios
b) Chipotle
c) Dos Coyotes

All of the above seem very busy every time I go there.

La Fiesta or Maui Tacos FTW

[Sandman]

Too bad. We eat there ocassionally.

The place next door on the corner, "King Falaffel" or whatever its called is always empty. I suspect it will shut down any day now

Dos Coyotes no way. They are always busy and have consistently good food. Eat there quite often...

Mr Kebab may benefit from this. Perhaps a lot of Intel employees will go there instead of Baja.
