Baja Fresh Mexican Grill

What they serve: This chain's slogan is "Built Baja Fresh," which means the food isn't frozen, microwaved, or out of a can and the tortillas are lard-free. However, read the menu carefully: A chicken quesadilla has 1,330 calories -- that alone could be more than two-thirds of your daily caloric intake.

Where you'll find them: Baja Fresh has 291 locations around the United States. For restaurant locations, log on to bajafresh.com.

What to Order

Mahi Mahi Taco - Grilled: sliced avocado, cabbage, pico de gallo, and zesty avocado dressing (230 calories, 9g fat).
Baja Ensalada with Chicken: romaine lettuce topped with charbroiled chicken, sliced tomatoes, Cotija cheese, pico de gallo, and crispy tortilla strips with fat-free salsa verde dressing (325 calories, 7g fat).

Next: McDonald's

This info is from 2007! Since then many restaurants have shut down or opened in other locations. And most have changed their menus. How about writing a new story with current info!
