Get Your Fiesta On With Rockin' Baja!

Hey Rockin’ Fans, in just one week we’ll be celebrating one of my favorite holidays… Cinco de Mayo! At Rockin’ Baja, that means we’re pulling out all the stops to give you the most flavorful food and lip-smacking drinks this side of the border!

Want to know what’s on the menu this year? Our Big Cinco Bucket puts the fiesta in traditional Cinco festivities! It combines the best of land and sea and includes succulent lobster, shrimp and crab legs, and melt-in-your-mouth tender carne asada and chicken. Don’t forget our famous beans, rice and tortillas, plus bottomless Caesar salad bowls. Wash it all down with an ice cold draft of Tecate or Dos Equis for the full Mexican experience. ¡Delicioso!

But who wants to celebrate Cinco de Mayo for just one day? Certainly not me! At Rockin’ Baja, we’re offering 6 days of Cinco flavor and fun! Take advantage of this tasty deal from April 30th to May 5th.

What else does May bring? Mother’s Day, of course! Show Mom she’s “shrimply” the best and treat her to a Shrimp Lover’s Bucket or some delicious Tequila Lime Shrimp. Both are guaranteed to have Mom rank this Mother’s Day as one of the best yet!

Until next time my friends, keep on rockin’!

April Happenings

Hey Rockin’ fans, can you believe it’s already April? Time flies here at Rockin’ Baja… great food, ice-cold drinks and fantastic company make for awesome times!

Even better, what does April bring to our amazing city? Baseball, of course! In just a week, Petco Park will be hosting the first San Diego Padres home game of the year. What better pre-game tradition than to stop in for a round of our really %&#@&#% good Tacos Chingones – carne asada with cheese, beans, avocado and pickled onions in a warm flour tortilla – and a frosty mug of your favorite draft beer before heading to the game. Or cheer on the Padres from the comfort of any of our great locations. It’s almost as good as going to the game, but the proximity to great food can’t be beat!

Spring in San Diego also serves as a great time for date night! Start with an order of our calamari, a sizzling bucket of deliciously crisp calamari steak strips that’s served with our famous chipotle dipping sauce. Then follow through with a meal guaranteed to knock your date’s sandals off – the Golden Sombrero! It has everything: choice Angus flat iron steak, grande Baja-style shrimp, succulent lobster, a marinated chicken breast, luscious king crab legs, and char-grilled corn on the cob. It’s the best of Baja built for two! Wash it all down with a lip-smacking White Sand Mojito or El Patron Grande. Date complete!

And don’t forget about Happy Hour…Monday through Friday from 3 to 6pm and our late night Happy Hour every night from 9 to close. Drinks start at $3 and appetizers start at $2 – that makes each Rockin’ location a perfect spot to meet friends and chill.

Until next time!

Greet Spring with Rockin' Baja!

Wow, just a blink of an eye and we’re already into March! And today is Saint Patrick’s Day! Truly there’s no better way to tip your hat to ol’ St. Paddy than to celebrate the Rockin’ Baja way with one of our Surf & Turf buckets! It’s the best of land and sea with succulent shrimp and snow crab, combined with mouthwatering grilled chicken and carne asada. Don’t forget bottomless Caesar salad. Wash it all down with one of our great thirst-quenching draft beers. You’ll do St. Paddy proud.

We’ve been enjoying great spring weather and lots of sunshine here in California – enjoy fun and sun on one of our outdoor patios! Visit either our Gaslamp or Oceanside locations during Happy Hour and watch the sun set with a satisfying order of $2 Topless Tacos and a refreshing house ‘Rita.

And what else does March bring? March Madness, of course! Cheer on your favorite teams at any of our great locations with an order of Gnarly Nachos or a Baja Sampler Platter… big enough to share with your friends, or just keep to yourself.

Spring sunshine, delicious food and great company… a ROCKIN’ combination!

See you there!

Feliz Navidad y Prospero Año Nuevo

I can’t believe that this year has gone by so quickly – Navidad is almost here! We’re celebrating Rockin’ Baja-style, all month long! The holiday season begins in Baja on December 16, with the beginning of the nine-day Las Posadas celebration, and we keep it rockin’ through Epiphany on January 6. Instead of the evergreen Christmas tree, Baja-style Christmas trees are made from the dried stem and flower of a century plant – a cool tradition using local resources!

Fresh seafood is also a big tradition on Christmas Eve…so start a new tradition in your family and swing in to a Rockin’ Baja for a Baja Shrimp & Slipper Lobster Bucket, just $25.99, or if you’re in Old Town come on down to Rocky’s Seafood Shack and Raw Bar for some oyster shooters!

From all of us here at Rockin’ Baja, have a Feliz Navidad y Prospero Año Nuevo!
