50 Best Taco Restaurants in Bakersfield

“their birria tacos with avocado sauce are so delicious!! and on Tuesday is the best day to go to experience their tacos, but go after 10am if you want to avoid the crowd in the evening. Amazing food & great customer service!“

“My must stop spot when visiting California! Food is amazing and the staff goes above and beyond.“

“I had the most authentic Food from Michoacan. It felt like I was a kid again eating the food my mom makes. I had the morisqueta and even the cheese tasted like the one from Mexico. My husband had the aporiadillo and it was also a great flavor and it came with tortillas echas a mano. They have aguas frescas that you can tell where made with love and authentically.“

“Our friends recommended this spot not too long ago and I’m so glad they did because this has become my husbands and mine’s favorite place to eat out. We live 45 minutes away and we make a point to eat here every time we are near the area. So far my husband and I have gotten the Steak Al Norte, mini smash sliders, Pollo Al Ajo Confit, the Smash Burger Salad, the Naughty Fries (which taste exactly like In n Out animal style fries) and their signature Cold Brew drinks! Everything we have gotten is delicious and we are planning on working our way through the menu as we continue to return.
In addition to the great food, the staff is friendly and the service is quick, you get a lot of food so the price is well worth it, the atmosphere and decor is gorgeous and the space is nice and big, ready to welcome groups.
Luna has found themselves some new regulars as a result!“

“One of the BEST restaurants in Bakersfield . The burgers and fries are big and tasty . The juices they have are incredible. Will definitely be coming back .“

“The grande burrito should be labeled the muy grande burrito. Be aware that 1 can probably feed a family of 4. I was not aware of this coming to the restaurant, and now my wife and I had our two burritos for dinner, lunch, and dinner the next day. Overall pretty good.“

“Saw 2 gentlemen posted up with their mobile truck at the amtrak bakersfield station. For 30 min contemplating if I should get food from here. No regrets made. Ordered 3 tacos asada and it was like Goku going into super sayien 3 good. If you are reading this and wondering, dont think. Only place your order.“

“This place has something called the grande burrito and they mean it this burrito is huge it can easily feed 2 people twice for just under 20$ and it's good you can order it anyway you like it if you ask them to thay will cut it in half and put it into two containers for two people I have a friend that is lactose intolerant and if you tell them they will put the cheese and dairy on the side and a little container so you can choose to add it or not me and my fam always give them a complicated order and they usually always get it right if thay don't they fix it in my opinion it's a low priced option to eat a lot of halfway healthy food in this day and age“

“Absolutely delicious food and huge burritos. Best Mexican food in Bakersfield that I've found.“

“2 bites in im melting. Finally some good Mexican food off the 5 freeway. Food was hot, meat had so much flavor and don't get me started on the salsa. Prices are fair and everyone was so nice. Portions you can not complain about. I see why they won an award 🏆. My new spot before I head up north or south. I can see my self being a regular.“

“A + + + +. Absolutely delicious Asada tacos and refried beans. These are my favorite items every time I eat there. I recommend getting their green salsa and loading it on the beans and the tacos so yummy. If you’ve drove by and thought about stopping do so you won’t regret it. Plus the prices are great.“

“Great food, good service. I will be back and I don’t eat out often, so I like to make it count!“

“good food, great owners. 🌮“

“Los tacos de pastor 😋🌮 están deliciosos“

“My goto place to get tacos on my lunch hour. I usually get 4 tacos 2 carne asada and 2 Cabeza with everything with green salsa. They only accept cash as payment. Good thing fastrip is right there to get cash and get a drink. I would highly recommend it.“

“❤️ the quesabirria and TopRamen Birria combo😋“

“JUST GO, this is my first time having Jalisco style Mexican food and it won’t be the last. These guys do it right the owners are hard workers and the food is BOMB. The Jalisco burrito is the most popular thing for a reason, it sounds crazy with the steak, shrimp, and chorizo but trust me it’s amazing. Everything so full of flavor and just great definitely will be back when in town“

“Great Tacos! The food is consistently very good w great flavor from the asada, to the chicken and/or carnitas. Very clean restaurant and impressive staff.“

“The best chili verde pizza I’ve ever had! I love how much events they have for the community, young people, families, and children. This is my son’s favorite pizza spot!! 🤘 🍕“

“8/10 did the job, I was craving for some Mexican food since I was in the area , I would like to point out I’m from San Diego and very close to the border with Tijuana so maybe my taco standards are very high but other than that I like them , if they could change the tortilla to a different brand or something I’m pretty sure they’ll be much better, but what really made this a very pleasant experience was how nice the people working there were , really makes you feel welcome.“

“Love there Tacos and Avocados salsa soo good my taco spot all day go give them a try 🥴🥴🥴“

“Some of the best tacos in bako“

“The pastor tacos were very good, had that authentic Tijuana style flavor. The asada tacos were okay but recommended pastor. The salsas went well with the food. Liked how they have free beans on the side. Horchata didn’t have that original flavor. Outdoor atmosphere.“

“This place beats any of those fancy restaurants and for a good reason. I found out about this place a few years back when Church ended and me and my family needed somewhere to eat, this place serves some of the best tacos I've tried and also the people serving them are so nice and the atmosphere is just as good and this place will forever hold a place in my heart. Final factor they are so cheap for great tacos.“

“Sus tacos son de un sabor unico pues estan echos al carbon y sus salsas riquisimas Ademas de la atencion“

“I'm visiting from England. My first time eating Mexican food. These quesabirria were simply one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten. Shared one to taste and then went back for more. If that were the last thing I ever ate, I would die a happy woman!!!“

“The carnitas are some of the best I have eaten in Bakersfield and priced better than most places. In twenty five minutes I saw at least fifteen cars stop and pick up meals by their regular customers(Owners knew them.) and that screamed volumes! It’s a Saturday and Sunday event and they close at 2:00 pm according to the signs.

Food was great! 5 stars.

Service excellent!

Atmosphere is on Union ave with lots of cars, if you’re picking up tacos or their fat burritos that’s not really relevant. The owners and people are so awesome!“

“Tacos and burritos r sooo good. Totally recommend.“

“This may have just became my favorite taco spot!! Met with smiles at the window, I had questions beyond my Spanish capabilities and the lovely woman’s english, yet the cook/owner/ man behind the counter was so descriptive and patient. Tuesday had tacos for a Buck!! So I ordered some carne asada and el pastor. I also needed to try the rice and beans, they tell a lot about a business. We added two canned Pepsis and for under $15 fed both of us well. The asada tacos were perfection!! Melt in your mouth perfection, the produce was fresh, the salsa was dynamite, and I could have put down a dozen. El Pastor was delicious only dimmed by the excellence of the asada. Then the tell all… the rice and beans l… they were done by a perfectionist taught by a grandmother, or Abuela in this case. Whole pinto “pot” beans were seasoned to perfection and the rice was what I’ve been searching for since my favorite restaurant closed a few years back. If you haven’t tried this truck, Do It! After hearing the love coming from the cook as he described what things were, I’m coming back, going back, may never leave. There’s so much more I need to experience. I’ll keep you posted. Good no no, I take that back, excellent food!! Great prices! Lovely customer service!! Don’t miss out!!“

“Bomb tacos!!! I highly recommend“

“Great Tacos! The food is consistently very good w great flavor from the asada, to the chicken and/or carnitas. Very clean restaurant and impressive staff.“

“Just stopped here while fuelling up across the street at Speedway. WOW...what an awesome find. loved everything we ordered and the staff was very helpful and extremely friendly. spreading the word to the rest of our rv traveling friends. Would give 10 stars if I could.“

“Where should I stick my fork first? These are good. They come with Guacamole AND Beans.
I’m pretty sure they would use ground beef before, but now you get the Chopped Asada! The Fries are good for fast food style, soft and filled with potato.
I like to get it without Nacho Cheese because I can taste the food more. You’ll still get the Shredded White Cheese. I also don’t get the Sour Cream because I like this food!
Price talk— right price for fries of this quality. The other asada fries that I like this much are in Bakersfield’s Old Town Kern.

One tip for Señior Taco: Today the fries had a bit too much seasoning salt.
Second tip for Señior Taco: careful not to let the Pico De Gallo sit for too long. You don’t want it to start fermenting.“

“Great Tacos! The food is consistently very good w great flavor from the asada, to the chicken and/or carnitas. Very clean restaurant and impressive staff.“

“Best tacos west of 99. Tacos come with a side of grilled onions and grilled jalapenos. Al Pastor meat is flavorful, juicy and tender. Tacos de Buche are my favorite. The burritos are flavorful. This taco truck is my go-to for delicious tacos now. Located in the parking lot of Valero gas station on the corner of District Blvd and Stine Rd. Limited outdoor seating. They also have breakfast burritos, breakfast plates and breakfast sandwiches.“

“the huevos rancheros of course and the Tortas I guess pretty much everything there but mostly the breakfast“

“Great food great service. The owner is very nice and hospitable.“
