Outdoor Grilling

Baja Fish Tacos

Baja Fish Tacos

Our fish is grilled instead of battered for a fresher, heart-healthy option. Baja fish tacos exploded in San Diego in the mid-1970s and quickly spread up the California coast and eastward. We keep the ingredients simple to accentuate the fresh vibrant flavor of grilled cod.
