Taba BBQ — Restaurant in Baja California Sur

Holy cow, Batman! I find it unbelievable that I have to leave the US, the birthplace of BBQ, to find the best! I'm from Florida with some of the best ever, Texas is also good, I agree, but we like it sticky and sweet. Taba was neither. The meat is unsauced but absolutely done right. Tender, slow cooked, full of smoke. I barely bothered with sauce except the mustard based one which was simply astounding and required me to use a bit. Brisket and pork belly were absolutely perfect in appearance, flavor and texture. Pork ribs were fall-off -the-bone as they should be. Mac and cheese is a new favorite, we liked the beans, but the cauliflower burnt ends are a stroke of genius that shouldn't be missed. Beef ribs are only available Saturdays but tonight there were none because of quality issues. There's no better sign of a good restaurant than one unwilling to serve food that isn't the best.

Super friendly staff, every single one of them.

Because we immediately tucked into the plate of heaven I neglected photos of the food. My apologies. Please enjoy these photos of the...

Well… I’d like to tell who ever is running this restaurant that the food and service are no longer good. It is sad to see that once a place has made famous for good food they have to lower quality and raise prices. I have two tienes here before tonight and have a great dinner but tonight it was a total disappointment. We order brisket and was it didn’t even took the 3 minutes to bring it to the table. It was super dry and cold and bad. The BBQ., same thing. 5 minutes after we placed the order it was at the table. Not only they were not hot but dry also. It seemed like left over from two nights before. To top it off. Not even warm food they brought the bottle of fridge cold sauces to put on top of not even warm food. And what was the worse part. When they have to water down the bbq sauce and all of them including catchup. I don’t recommend you to go there. It’s way to expensive for the quality and water...

Taba BBQ off the beaten path, but this should be a stop for every barbecue lover. This is on the northeast side of the marina a few blocks away from the marina. We ordered a brisket sandwich, which was buttery and tender! Super good flavor! A half pound of spare ribs, also fall off the bones tender. A chopped cheese sandwich, which is brisket and a cheese sauce sandwich. A large side of wedge fries and a small side of potato salad. The food here was so delicious! I wish we would’ve known about this place on previous trips. The employees were gracious and friendly. They offered their suggestions for our large group. The restaurant had good music playing, maybe just a touch loud as it was a little difficult to hold a conversation. They also had playoff basketball on the TV’s. Overall this place was a definite stop for us on all of our future trips! The employees so friendly and the food...
