Bakersfield

This cozy spot on Mass Ave serves up authentic Mexican street cuisine like tacos, tortas, taquitos, and more. 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.

10/29/23-My cousins were in town, we had lunch at Bakersfield prior to going to airport. The food was excellent, street tacos, the trio, were all great. Drinks were great. Our server Laura really made our lunch 5 star with her attentiveness. The combination of the food and staff like Laura guarantees I will be back, and recommend others.

Between my husband and I, we had most of the tacos. All were really delicious. The chips and salsa - also really good. Both salsas had good flavor, some heat (green was mild, red was mild/medium heat). Pomegranate Paloma was good as well. Great atmosphere, friendly and attentive serving staff. Well worth a visit!

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.

I dined here with my wife at 5:30 on a Sunday evening. We did not have a reservation, but were seated right away. Everything tasted very fresh! We shared chips and salsa, which came with two salsas. Both of them were very good. We each ordered three different street tacos and we loved all of our choices!

Went there for a dbl date couples night... our friends we were with recommended it we walked there from pin mechanics. It was cool outside we had a 45 min wait while waiting our friend ordered the 🍍 margaritas 🍹 I don't drink so I can't too much review it myself but taking it from them & my fiancé I guess you can say that's one of the places that serves the best 🍍 margaritas. We went inside the atmosphere was coo, it was a little hot & stuffy so I asked if they could open the window we were sitting by & they did even the host said "it feels the same out there as it does in here" we all laughed at it but it brought a nice cool breeze thru. Food came out fast I ordered the chicken taquitos they were decent, didn't care too much for the sauce, but it was still really good. I ordered the esquites the corn salad & I was a little disappointed in that, I didn't like the flavor too much but they were nice enough to take it off... we also ordered the full queso dip w the braised short ribs(BEEF) I can say that there queso dip with and without the beef was really good! Everyone got different tacos and nobody complained about it so i take it they were good. Would suggest ordering more than one since they are small. But it is a place I would recommend & revisit.
