In 1983, Rick DiRienzo, the founder of Rockin’ Baja Lobster, introduced these lobster dinners to legions of fans in San Diego. He converted the historical Old Bonita Store in Bonita California, to a Puerto Nuevo style lobster house. In 1992, he opened a second location on the harbor in Oceanside, CA. It was here that he created his now famous Baja Buckets®. Not satisfied with just lobster prepared Baja style, he experimented doing every type of shellfish the same way. Our buckets now come with choices ranging from slipper lobster tail, shrimp, and snow crab to Alaskan King Crab, all prepared Baja style. Buckets come with other taste-tempting ingredients such as grilled marinated carne asada and chicken to crispy tacos. The Original Baja Bucket® comes overflowing to your table with Baja style slipper lobster tails and shrimp along with grilled carne asada and chicken. And all our buckets are available in sizes for 1, 2, 3 or 4 guests!
What truly adds to the sunny coastal paradise of our restaurants, besides are beach murals and funky artwork and signage, are two very important ingredients: our unlimited all you can eat chip and salsa bar, warm flour tortillas and platters of Mexican rice and beans. And the endless smiles and hospitality of our staff.We pride ourselves on offering our guests a fun, rockin’ good time; truly delicious and unique food offerings; and icy cold beer by the bucket, if you wish, and a varied selection of the best tasting margaritas anywhere. « hide
