December 2nd 2025 time: 7pm. We had a birthday dinner for my husband. There was one server gentleman working (i did not get his name) but he was serving all tables and bar this night. I just wanna say he did a phenomenal job. The patience and the service. Food was delicious. If the owner sees this please give him recognition for his great work and service. We were a table of 7 and there was another table of 7 and 4,4,2,2 and 4 i believe and he handled the restaurant so calm and respectfully.

The food was very delicious and flavorful! I really liked the environment! It was pretty and picturesque. The service was interesting, we had a table of 7 and the waiter probably came 4 times in total. Didnt check up on us. Brought water once. But they did bring us some more chips when we finally were able to make Eye contact with someone. I did like it. I would come back. But I will need to make sure I have plenty of time because the food took a long time.

What are you eating? Quesabirria was delicious!
Ok Bakersfield- the food was on point! Guava margarita and the ambiance was perfect. The only drawback is the service is extremely slow. Very nice people but 1 server /bartender to manage all the tables. #whatareyoueating #bakersfieldca #mexicanfood #whereisamandaleora #travel #restaurantstotry

We held a business luncheon here and the food was served hot and server was attentive to our needs. Our group of nine people had variety of meals both dinner portions as well as luncheon portions.

We were recommended to come here for my moms birthday which was on a Monday night. The food was delicious. Drinks also delicious. Customer service was great. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of the music. It was just so loud. We could barely hear each other talk at the table and we were sitting right next to each other. We definitely couldn’t hear the waiter. He still did great though, But other than the loud music, I would definitely come back here and try more food and drinks.

My first time going to El Puesto the decor inside is beautiful and the food is great! However I wasn’t impressed with the pinwheels with hot sauce poured over them that came to the table only ate a couple,how about chips and salsa instead?? The service was so so waited for my check for about 10 mins after I finished my meal. Another gripe I have is there is no salt/pepper/sugar on the tables you have to ask for it, again why not put those items on the table instead of having the waitress go back and fourth. As far as the food the Quesabirria was excellent some of the best I have had! My wifes soft tacos were excellent as well both meals came with rice and beans that were very flavorful. Hopefully they can correct those things I mentioned I will give it another shot and see what happens.

Restaurant is nicely decorated and they have a very nice outdoor patio. We got seated in a booth by the window, our waitress brought the “chips” and I was expecting actual chips and salsa since it is a Mexican restaurant. I did not care for them or the hot sauce drizzled on top. After I saw those, my expectations were pretty low. The waitress seemed to be super sweet and more shy, she came by to get our drink order and after she delivered the drinks, she did not come back for quite a while to take the food order. The food looked amazing and also tasted great. I got a burrito off of the lunch special menu. The green sauce is amazing and bursting full of flavor. It was delicious! After done eating, it was a while before she brought the check even after making eye contact with her a few times. Service needs to be worked on definitely but food is pretty decent, minus their spin-off on chips.

This was our first time trying this restaurant. We had lots of people recommend it to us and I got to say the food was delicious and came in good portions. We tried their micheladas and they where alright.. it has way to much pepper and spices. Our server was great and came often to offer us anything we needed. I recommend it to anyone who’s in the mood for some authentic Mexican food! We will come back here again for sure.

Walked in without a reservation for a party of 3, 1 child, and a baby. They sat us immediately and brought some chips with salsa on it, not the traditional kind but very delicious. I ordered café de olla, it was the most delicious coffee I have ever tasted. We ordered Chilaquiles; Chorizo and egg plate with crispy chicharones; and a mixed Carne plate. The refried beans were as a hit with a hint of heat to them. Ordered a quesadilla for the child and ate it without complaints. The ambiance was straight out of contemporary Mexico. Dining rooms are beautiful inside and outside. Extremely clean as well. Everything was perfect for my 1st dining experience at this place. Will be revisiting.
