Baja Sol makes veggie burritos
Baja Sol prepares tortillas and grilled fajitas to order. The salsa bar features fresh cilantro, jalapeno peppers and a variety of salsas. When preparing veggie burritos, they'll usually ask whether you want cheese or sour cream.
This Baja Sol in Coffman Union at the U of M is an "express" version, so it doesn't offer everything that the full restaurants offer yet still has plenty of options.
On the ground floor of Coffman Union inside the Minnesota Marketplace food court. On Washington Ave bus lines 2,16,50,etc.

Reviews
This place is an excellent choice in Coffman Union for a quick and easy lunch. The beans, rice, veggies, guacamole and salsas are vegan. As far as I know, the tortillas are vegan, too. It's also nice to get sauteed veggies like zucchini, squash, peppers and onions for some added oomph.
This place is really all about the salsa bar. I have an extremely high heat tolerance for chilies and salsas, and it's nice to be able to get a ton of really hot salsa and jalapenos for free, unlike Burrito Loco or some other places which charge me extra even though I don't get meat, cheese, or sour cream. I mean, really, how much does salsa affect their bottom line?
The taco salad with a fried tortilla bowl is really tasty and filling. You are also able to order any burrito without the tortilla for a healthier option. The burritos also come with a small bag of chips, and as mentioned before, an awesome unlimited salsa bar.
Overall, I enjoy Baja Sol. Maybe I wouldn't as much if I didn't work on campus and have flexdine to spend on it. But it is a tasty option on campus.



Oh This place is amazing for a quick texmex bite! I usually eat at one in Eden Prairie Mall, and I have never been disapointed. Their complimentary bag of tortilla chips, and quite a good range of salsa (for a food court place) is bonus. 9/10
