My boyfriend’s family has a tradition to keep the family close. On Wednesday of each week, one person chooses a restaurant at which the family will eat dinner. I have been graciously assimilated into this family tradition, and have found myself many a week worrying where to take the group that they will all enjoy. Reading the Alibi one morning, I came across a small, yet praising description of Bumble Bee’s Baja Grill. I was relieved to have a suggestion for my turn, and that evening I led us to the Californian/Mexican grill.
Upon entering the restaurant, we were all taken aback by the décor – colorful piñatas hanging from the ceiling and other bright decorations everywhere – a total fiesta. We all took turns ordering our dinners from their enticing menu, which includes salads, quesadillas, nachos, giant burritos and fresh tacos. It offers many ways to prepare the burritos and tacos, many meats to choose from. I don’t eat meat, so I went with the Veggie-Especial Burrito, one of many vegetarian-friendly dishes. Our drink choices included fountain sodas as well as bottled Mexican sodas, which led me to pick out a bottle of Jarritos. Those of legal age can also enjoy a selection of beer and wine. We all loved the tortilla chips, made fresh, as well as the selection of salsas (I recommend the smoky tomato).
The meal itself was great, and the colorful and casual atmosphere made it even better. Without emptying my wallet, Bumble Bee’s made this family night a success. Access the menu yourself at http://www.bumblebeesbajagrill.com.
