WARNING there is no alcohol in their drinks. I've been going to this place for 50 years. Had no complaints until now. It seems the customer has no voice and they don't care if you ever come back. Charged $31.00 for 2 daiquiris that had no liquor in it. The glass was filled with 1/2 whipping cream. Very unsatisfied with response I got from owner. If he cared enough about keeping us coming back I wouldn't be posting this.

Service and atmosphere was great, but the food is not authentic. It's was geared toward non Hispanic customers. I should of known I did not see 1 Hispanic in the restaurant beside the staff

This local landmark is truly one of my favorite places to dine for authentic and delicious Mexican food.
I always have top notch service and delicious hot fresh food served by the awesome wait staff .
The combination dinners are all wonderful as well as the chili verde.
The margaritas here are refreshing as well!

Good food. I've been going in there since the sixties. This is comfort food, It's always the same. And it's good. Why don't you go by for lunch?I'm not sure when it starts but it ends at two thirty p m. When people that work there some of them I've known for years.
And they're good people.

Delicious lunch right on the way to the Kern Museum 🙌😀
I went for cheese enchilada and they were good.
Just like a home cooked meal. The price reflects the freshness and quality of the items offered, very attentive staff and a sense of tradition and values. You won't regret it!
I've been going here since I was a kid. I love this place! It is one of the best Mexican food restaurants in town.

I have been coming to this restaurant for decades but it had been a few years since my last visit, so I stopped by for lunch today. Everything was fantastic and just the way I remembered it! Service was truly exceptional- and it was busy. Chips and salsa refill appeared before I had finished the first basket (without me even asking!) and a passing server even picked up the straw wrapper off the table right after I opened it. When I ordered a glass of ice water, my server asked if I would like a lemon or lime with it. This kind of attention to detail is honestly missing from 95% of casual restaurants so if I could give six stars for service I would. The food was delicious and piping hot - if you like casual 20th century California style suburban Mexican food, this is the place for you. It’s different from what you can find in Mexico (melted cheese generously added to most dishes, for example) but quite beloved by those of us who grew up in Bakersfield. Today I enjoyed a chile verde burrito on a plate loaded with rice and refried beans. In the past I have also liked their hard shell tacos!
