PUNJABI DHABA REVIEWS

This was a great road trip stop while on our way back home. We really enjoy Indian food, and Punjabi Dhaba really hit the spot (they have vegan and nonvegam options)! The owner and staff were super friendly and we enjoyed chatting with them. Stop by if you're ever in the area - you won't regret it!.

Never had Indian food before and this place was so tasty. They also told me how they use non GMO ingredients, peanut and coconut oil. Very healthy choices. Can't wait to go back. Taking the entire family next time. Very nice place and service and food.

If you like Indian food and looking for the same in the area then only this place is what I can suggest as a trustworthy Indian Food Restaurant in Bakersfield.

EL BUEN PASTOR REVIEWS

I enjoyed the food in this location. I highly recommend anyone to try this place if you want good quality food. The Al Pastor tacos were delicious. Very affordable place. As you can tell we couldn’t resist and had to take a bite of the burrito before the picture. It was soo good. The hot sauces have a lot of flavor. And the aguas were incredibly good especially for this weather. Customer service was amazing as well. And it was very hot outside but they have a good set up for shade, thank you for your service.

Probably one of the best food trucks I've been to. A fenced seating area, AC heat and cooling, and even a hand washing station. And of course, the food was a truly authentic experience.

What a gem. The service and food were amazing. Had a wet burrito and it was delicious. The mole chips and even the water were tasty.

BIRRIA BROS REVIEWS

One of the best Taco Trucks I have been to. I’ve ate here two days in a row and both times the food was great. The prices are also cheap, So good food for a great price. There is also seating available if you want to eat there. They do have a fan and a portable AC in the seating area. The area is clean and well kept. No homeless or shady people hanging around. The cashier/hostess is very nice and respectful. Glad I found this place while I’m here in Bakersfield, will definitely be my go to place.

I've been coming here since Covid, and let me tell you that this is a gem.. I swear to God their prices haven't changed, quality hasn't gotten lower, nor have the portions shrunk. If you're looking for great food for a phenominal price, do yourself a favor and come here.

Amazing! The best in California! Clean place and great atmosphere. The birria tacos are cooked to perfection and heavy on all ingredients.
