Baha Betty

BAHA Betty was an awesome spot for our big group catch-up! We had a party of 12 and the space was perfectly set up to accommodate us comfortably, which made the night even better. I ordered the Birria Tacos and personally thought they were absolutely delicious—packed with flavour and nice and juicy. My wife thought the taste was a little different to what she’s used to, but that might just come down to personal preference. Either way, they were definitely a standout dish for me. The vibe of the whole place was fantastic—fun, lively, and welcoming—with a really cool atmosphere that made it feel like a genuine night out. The staff were super accommodating too, making sure we were all looked after, even with such a big group. One thing I’m definitely keen on for next time is trying the ribs, which looked absolutely generous and mouth-watering when my friends ordered them! All in all, BAHA Betty is a great place for Mexican food lovers, especially if you’re coming with a larger group and want a fun, relaxed experience. Can’t wait to come back and sample more of the menu!

One of the best Mexican foods I’ve had in Auckland. Truly worth the try! They make amazing homemade sauces and chips and it’s delicious . A special shoutout to the friendly team.

Literally the best Mexican restaurant I’ve been to. I always get the nachos, it is such a large portion size and tastes so good! I also love the quesadillas and their fillings are always so unique and different to other Mexican stores I’ve been to. The service is always fast too, the staff also so efficient and attentive. The interior is also so well decorated, with a convenient location as well, being on top of a mall.

Cosy place to sit, with rustic feel, genuine hospitality which is rare to find these days. Fantastic food, should try the green lipped mussels and nachos. I wish they have this in Bali. Darren is a superstar, as well as the chef.

Lovely experience. I asked if our coke floats were able to be made with zero sugar coke since my mum is diabetic and they were happy to. They also let me ask for no vinegar with the chips.

Nice Mexican food. Cerviche was a bit too citrusy and the sangria wasn't strong enough or fruit filled enough, but we enjoyed our time here.

We came to Baha Betty when they first opened and we’ve been meaning to come back since. This time, however, some of the food we had was subpar. I thoroughly enjoyed the Buffalo Wings, you simply cannot go wrong with this spicy and tangy dish. The best dish we ordered tonight was the fish taco, every bite was full of intense flavour. The concept for the other dishes we ordered would have been spectacular, but this was unfortunately not executed. My main issue with tonight’s meal was the horrendously fishy tuna found in both dishes- the raw market fish and the niçoise salad. I completely understand that fish is meant to be a little fishy, but this was an unfathomable and unacceptable level of fishy. I can only compare this ammonia taste with that of a century egg (search it up and give it a try). Otherwise, the salad would have been a hit. The raw fish was also questionable in terms of flavour and texture. I didn’t see a connection with the sauce and the seaweed salad- slimy on slimy is not a go. The Steak Po’ Boy was underwhelming- the bread was not the right pairing, and was quite soggy. Subjectively, it had too much mayonnaise. The Loaded Fries were quite delicious and the menu definitely wasn’t lying when it said LOADED. I hate when I order loaded fries, but when I get to the middle it’s just plain fries. Fortunately, this was not the case. What would elevate the dish is to incorporate a second type of cheese, such as cheddar. The mozzarella used gave it the perfect stringy texture, but it lacked the flavour.
