Reviews for Rockin' Baja Lobster - Oceanside in San Diego, CA
Lobster tacos, my new favorite! Great service for a crowded convention lunch schedule. They seated us and brought food out... without a long wait. We had a great time! Read more
Super yummy! Order the pepper sampler appetizer! Justin was an amazing waiter. Hope you catch all the big waves!
This is my go-to place every year I come to SDCC. Got the three amigos tacos (shrimp, steak, and lobster) Service is always... fantastic. Only thing I sorely miss was the self-service chip and salsa bar. I always look forward to their mango salsa. Iunderstand it's probably because of Covid precautions and supply issues, still I miss it. Hopefully next year it will return Read more
We had a group of 8 people and they seated us within 20 minutes during dinner rush. I always get one of their fish owl... margaritas and they never disappoint. We got the Big Baja Bucket and it was well worth the value. Tons of good food, we leftfeeling absolutely stuffed. I don't think there was a single thing in the bucket that we thought wasn't good.

Came for an early dinner and had a good experience. I had the Lobster Lover which I enjoyed, but the flavors of all the elements... sort of merged into one. Helpings was very generous though. Although I didn't get to experience it first hand, the place feltlike it would really come alive for the evening and night crowd. Read more
First thought … How is this place open? Restaurant had to be at 5% capacity, but service was slow. Had to ask for server,... after waiting to place drink order for more than five minutes. Placed order, food came out quick. Presentation was nice. Food…ugh. Not. I had the lobster and shrimp bite appetizer. Shrimp cooked ok. There was more shrimp than lobster. No surprise. But,the lobster were dry pieces of thin claw meat. I may have had one decent lobster bite in the whole bunch. The breading on thelobster was about super thick and doughy compared to the shrimp. The fries were not up to temp. It was not enjoyable. The fishtacos, the reason I came, looked great. The taste… just blah. The cabbage had a bad bitter after taste that was just reallyunbalanced. The fish portion was so modest. I guess that’s why they put it on top. Overall, I will not spend my money hereagain. The only thing I enjoyed were the chips and salsa and it was complimentary. Update: Server had manager refund thelobster & shrimp bites. So, I appreciate that… but, seriously quality issues. Read more
I went here for my birthday dinner. The food was amazing. We shared the original baja bucket. It's worth the $69 for two. Came... with 16 shrimp, 4 4 oz. lobster tails, 1/2 steak, 1/2 chicken, 2 grilled corn, and all you can eat rice, beans, and tortillas. Read more
Located in the heart of the Gaslamp District this is a good place to grab a bite to eat. Be warned though it is VERY loud... inside. At times it was hard to hear our server and table mates. Also some of the tables are very small. They sat 4 of us at a4-top but our drinks with dinner plates barely fit on the table. It was very crowded. They have many televisions around thedining areas and during our visit, sports were playing. The server Ruby was friendly and attentive. She checked on us often andkept our drinks refilled. They serve chips and salsa with the beverages. We ordered the poppers and they were enjoyed byeveryone. They weren't too hot. The dinner entrees were flavorful and portions were hearty. Some options like the Epic Burritois enough for two light eaters to share. The fajitas were seasoned well and you get a lot of tortillas, beans, rice, andguacamole with it. The lime rice was delicious! The taco platter ordered was a variety with a lobster, beef, and shrimp taco.The taco shells were filled and the meal was filling. The enchilada and taco were served with soup, beans and rice. The foodwas good, the service outstanding, but not sure we would return due to the extremely loud atmosphere. If you like that type of aplace and aren't looking to converse with your tablemates, this place would be a great option for you! Read more
