Review Baby Salsa Express - Nanaimo

Great food that fills you up, prices are alright but can add up quick. The owner really needs to hire more staff. My last trip there, 2 cars left from the drive thru due to wait times. The girls working were trying really hard but flustered. They had to turn their Skip off as they were too busy. If the owner actually reads the reviews, double your staff, speed service times up, serve more customers and in turn, make more money. Your staff and your bank account will thank you!

the cactus fries taste like the deep fryer has never been cleaned before. they tasted and smelled so strongly of a grease trap that i couldn’t even eat them and i used to love getting those. the taco was good but bland mostly consisting of beans.

Friendly place to come grab food. The cashiers engage in conversation and go the extra mile. I enjoyed this fresh food take out on Terminal Ave for the last 3 years

Delicious food at a reasonable price. Great place for the fresh ingredients and fast service. Forgot to take pictures! Also, take out was in compostable or recyclable packaging. A bonus.

Although they have a vegan menu, I would not suggest going here as a vegan or even vegetarian. Ordered a vegan taco and they gave me ground beef. After I explained that I have an allergy to meat, they blamed me. I asked for a manager to call me, the next day an employee called me and said they don't know when a manager would be in. The employee accused me of lying and said it was my fault for not mentioning no meat. I was violently ill and I was again blamed. Despite the vegan menu, I would not suggest eating here. The main location is much more thorough and accurate with their orders.

Used to really love this place but am wondering if they lost their cook recently as the quality and consistency in flavour has begun to decline. Ordered the black bean soup and couldn't eat more than two bites because the amount of lime juice that had been added was just too overpowering.

This is where my wife and I go when we don't feel like cooking and it's Saturday night and it's a long wait to go to a sit-down restaurant so we swing by Baby Salsa Express and go sit by the water with our dinner. And since it's consistently good food and fast friendly service it's an excellent choice. My most recent visit I was greeted by a sign saying all take-out containers (excluding foil of which I had none) are compostable! How fantastic is that?

Decided to give this place a try as I was having a hankering for a burrito. The service was great, fast and my burrito was a decent size. I ordered the Beef Buritio and a Jarrito my order came to $18, so I was down $20 after the tip. Much to my chagrin the burrito was very bland and consisted mostly of large hunks of bland stringy meat. I really didnt enjoy my meal and I was truly disappointed. I lost interest in eating it about a 3rd of the way through. I may give this place one more go somewhere down the road in the hopes that they were just having an off day. Oh well, they cant all be gems. My official score is 2.5 and would have been much higher if the quality was there.

Vegan Option: Yes<br/><br/>I eat here a lot because they've got lots of vegetarian options and are vegan friendly, but honestly, the food is just OK. They get points for their salsa, which is great, but the rice and beans etc usually lacks spice. It's also very expensive for what I would consider to be fast-food quality food. I found no difference between my del jardin burrito at the restaurant and the one at the fast food location. They could really use some more spice options and perhaps try making their food a little more affordable, after all, how much is some rice and beans really worth? It's one of the cheapest foods out there...
