Stopped by for lunch with my wife. The place was nicely laid out with comfortable seating and decently spaced tables, the walls didn't seem too echo-y so it'd probably be comfortable even when it's fuller.
We shared 6 tacos and a torta between us and it was a good amount of food. The torta was one of the stars of the meal with hearty crisped bread, tender pulled pork, and a nice red salsa which added smokiness with a hint of heat and tang to eat bite. It's about the size of hefty panini so one or two more tacos will easily push you to fullness. The tacos themselves were all quite good with perfectly-cooked meats and well-balanced flavors. The short rib was the best all-around taco given its classic savory goodness but the cochinita pibil stood out for its ability to blend complex flavors with a hefty hit of heat that doesn't melt your face but truly adds to the experience of dish. I'd also recommend a pastor taco to end your meal as the generous pineapple chunks make for a naturally sweet dessert-like finish. The most boring taco was the chicken which I probably wouldn't get again. The two other quibbles I had are that the pineapples of the pastor clearly tasted canned and the tortillas had an odd slick and mealy texture which was a little off-putting compared to the steamed or fried corn tortillas you get at other places.
Overall, however, my wife and I had a very enjoyable meal at Bakersfield and would gladly come again. This place is much more laid back and traditional which we enjoy whereas Tako nearby offers a more trendy avant-garde experience that, while fun, seems more a young person's game.
