On the Sea of Cortez was once a small scrubby outpost perched on the dunes. Joe, who loved to surf the waves on wooden longboards in ancient times ... like the 60’s and 70’s, regularly visited this sublime place.

Baja Joe as he became known, found himself drawn to the surf and the sun of the Baja area. He surfed by day and played at night. Baja Joe enjoyed the fresh Mexican food native to the Baja, but missed one thing from his US homeland, a good burger.
So one night, Baja Joe started a bonfire that lit up the sky for miles. At the end of the flame Baja Joe chargrilled a big burger hard and fast on the outside and pink and juicy on the inside. The aroma of the grilled burgers in the night air drew many of his friends, and soon Baja Joe was making burgers for all the Baja visitors and surfers.

One afternoon Joe caught a big wind and headed out to sea. His friends couldn’t find him, and they never did see him again. In honor of their big-hearted buddy, they continued those bonfires on the beach. We now bring that tradition to you with Baja Joe’s Beachfront Grill. We only serve Joe’s favorites: big burritos, tacos, chicken sandwiches and his beloved chargrilled burger with your choice of 12 different toppings and free chips and salsa.

Opening your own Baja Joe’s couldn’t be easier. It’s perfect for small locations and food courts, and it combines everyone’s favorite Mexican food with America’s all time favorite, the hamburger.
