"Love this place. Been coming here for years. Reminds me of being back home in Chicago. The food is good and the Whiskey & tequila selections are great. Don't miss out on the seasonal cocktails and the shot of the day. The queso is awesome and the tacos are amazing. Try the braised short rib taco, or the al pastor, Baja shrimp or even the fish taco. All of them are awesome."

"service was good. the vibe was good. the food was not. I bought tacos, corn esquite, and a margarita. the margarita: decent but light on alcohol. the esquite: it's cold. interesting concept. I've had good esquite in LA and Mexico, which has loads of mayo/cream and cheese over the corn. also, it's generally warm. this esquite is like a cold dip, which could work if it had more robust flavor - maybe with chips? it's not traditional but that's okay. points for uniqueness and style but not flavor the tacos: the meats are okay, especially the al pastor, but the tortillas were literally undercooked. they make sure it pictures, but the tortillas crumbled as you ate them. that's definitely not supposed to happen. imagine eating undercooked dough with pizza. same thing. it ruins the experience. the red salsa was pretty good, but it just doesn't work if the tortillas aren't right. wouldn't surprise me if they were microwaved huge disappointment"

They also have some delicious craft cocktails and specialty margaritas that complement every bite. Don’t miss their Cranberry Ginger Margarita, it’s their special for the holiday season and we loved it! Also highly recommend the torta and taquitos if you don’t want tacos; they were both excellent.

"Our team had a dinner outing and it was a great choice. Bakersfield was excellent for a fun and energetic atmosphere with efficient and friendly staff. We were able to talk, laugh, and have a good time sharing stories over chips and guacamole, salsa, and finally some very delicious tacos. I had 3 tacos which were sufficient and satisfying. The Baja Shrimp were my favorite because of the tasty and crunchy shrimp. I did have a pollo verde taco which was good as well. I highly recommend the tacos and visiting for an intimate small couple outing or a larger group. Thanks Bakersfield."
