    Our server, Kelli, was incredible and we were treated so well, even when we took quite some time to order. It was wonderful to hang out with friends in this very welcoming spot. Thank you so much!

    Fantastic tasting Mexican food and smart, friendly service. Prices reasonable / consistent with the quality of the food. Restaurant is bar loud - not the place for a quiet romantic dinner. P.S. dear management, please add desert to the menu . . . it would be terrific.

    The food is consistently VERY good! It's a fun place to meet with friends or have a date. Their happy hour prices are great too! Was there on a Monday before 6 and it was half price apps and $3 tacos!

    1St time at Bakersfield OTR. The restaurant was recommended by some friends, it was great. Will go again. The margaritas were some of the best I have had and the fish tacos are wonderful.

    Great place for a casual meal and drinks! Tacos are innovative, fresh, and you can mix and match. Our server was friendly and efficient. This is a good place to meet friends for a pre-concert dinner if you’re headed to Music Hall!
