I have wanted to try this place for along time. Finally tried it yesterday. I orders a ground beef Taco, and a shredded beef Taco. Both were excellent. My mouth is watering thinking about it. I went thru the drivethru and they were pretty fast. I want to eat inside when I have more time. The Tacos were stuffed with goodies. Will eat here again. Try it. read more

This is the definition of hole in the wall. Small taco shop on one side of a small building with a drive thru. I ordered two carne asada burritos in the drive thru and it took about 5 mins total and the guy was friendly. The food was ok, green salsa wasn't my favorite. I'd be back to try their breakfast burritos read more

​I was incredibly disappointed with my experience here. The food was not good at all, and the salsa was completely watered down. ​Beyond the food quality, there was a major customer service and hygiene issue. The cashier was not friendly at all and was actively using her cell phone while handling fresh radishes. Touching a personal phone while handling ready-to-eat produce is a huge food safety concern. ​Between the poor service, subpar food quality, and lack of basic hygiene standards, I won't be returning. Management needs to address this immediately. read more

Call ahead before you go there. I've been denied now several times when I get there too late. Either update business hours online or stay open as posted. read more

Hands down the best breakfast burrito in town. What can be better than that? How about its affordable price? $5.25 for a burrito loaded with scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage and cheese. You can also choice other meets such as bacon or chorizo both of which I have tried and loved. Also, a large soda there is only $2.25, so I can get a burrito and drink for under ten dollars and it's fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and always helpful. One caution, the drive thru line can be long because they make everything from scratch so don't expect it to be as quick as a fast food line but trust me, it's worth extra wait. Pro tip: try the green sauce. read more

I order two Carne Asada burrito. You might is we'll change the name to rice burrito. It was 90% Rice 10% meat. I don't know what's up with Bakersfield but they don't make Carne Asada Burrito like southern cal. I expect meat salsa and guacamole in my carne asada. I been too two different taco shop and it's the same. read more

food is good.Service is slow and they need to fix their Speaker box for the drive through

My wife and I got breakfast burritos to go. They were very good and although it took a bit for them to prepare them, I can totally see why people are willing to wait in line for them. I went into the restaurant because the drive up line was very long. Inside is small but comfortable. Definitely will go back for more! read more

I came here around 730 am to grab breakfast to go. I drove around twice bc it looked closed. I finally saw the small lit Drive Thru sign. The menu wasn't on and no one answered from the menu mic. A man waved me to the window. I ordered 5 shredded beef crunchy tacos ($3.25 each). It took a long time to get the order. The tacos are small, little meat and ingredients. Absolute rip off to charge over $3 a taco. Won't be coming back. read more

The food is okay, decent prices overall but be prepared to wait a while. Unfortunately last weekend one of our burritos had egg shells This restaurant typically only has two people working taking orders in the front, drive thru and cooking so it's EXTREMELY slow. Currently sitting in the drive thru as I write this review and we've only moved ONE car up and it's been almost thirty minutes. So far two cars have backed up and left. Tip: if you're getting a breakfast burrito, ask for easy potatoes unless you want a nothing but potatoes burrito. read more

Back in the day (2015-2019), I'd have given a 4 star+ rating, but the business seriously needs to reinvest in itself. I wonder if they are struggling and cannot do it. The menu sign has been damaged and out of wack for years, the D-T speaker hasn't worked for quite a while, and wait times are usually long. The food is good, and the prices are generally fair, but I went from a regular to a here-and-there customer. I used to get 4-5 full green sauces for my burrito and would down em all since they have an awesome salsa verde, but they started charging for sauces after you get 2 and sometimes the sauce containers are only half-filled. All-in-all, I still consider Alfonso's a place to go and get tasty burritos, but ever since COVID days I think twice about it. read more

Ordered a Machaca breakfast burrito and it came as a potato burrito with like half an egg and like a teaspoon of machaca.

I ordered a super breakfast burrito with Carne Asada as my choice of meat. It was supposed to include pico de gallo eggs, potatoes, and of course, Carne Asada however, the Carne Asada was nowhere to be found. There was minimal egg and I basically paid for a potato burrito with a couple pieces of eggs sprinkle in. I have had positive experiences in the past so I will give them another chance and hope that they won't let me down next time. read more

Food was so greasy I had to throw it away. Just wanted a chicken quesadilla. Horchata was super watery with zero flavor. The service was fine and I just went through the drive through so.... I was more disappointed than anything because I came here one time in the morning and it was really great! I hope that I just got them on a bad day because I want these guys to win read more

The tortillas used for the tacos and the tripas (asked for crispy) were delicious. I will never get tripas anywhere else!!!! Can't wait to try the breakfast dishes which I heard are great. read more

Food was just ok. Ceviche was really small portion and really wasn't that flavorful. Fajita burrito was nothing exciting. Chips were good, but ordered salsa and got two small cups. Guac was gross! It was like water and brown. I don't know if I'd go again, too bad, it's so close! read more

Highly disappointed in the service I have received at this restaurant. About a week and a half ago I ordered an asada burrito asking for them to replace the pico de gallo with cilantro and onion and additionally add cheese and sour cream. When I received my order, it was missing the cilantro and the onion And kept the burrito as I found out until I got home. I just bought another simple Asada burrito today and as you can see in the picture, they forgot to add the beans and rice. I make sure to inform them of the issue with the last order and I was wanting to only add sour cream and onion, but it looks like that's all it had. read more

For a breakfast burrito under $10 you can't beat it. I think the burrito is $7 and it comes with potatoes, eggs, choice of meat but there isn't too much meat which is expected with a burrito this price. It's quick service and decent prices which is difficult to find these days. read more

Will forever be my favorite taco spot. My whole family actually. I love coming to get a classic bean & cheese burrito, and nothing beats their breakfast burritos. They always hit no matter what day or time it is. Don't even get me started at hard working they are!! I moved 21 min away and still come just for a burrito haha; everyone must check them out!!! read more

If your looking for a good filling breakfast burrito this is the spot and I mean good but the rest of the stuff on the menu that I tried was not the best this review is for the breakfast burritos it is a little hole in the wall shop I'll have breakfast from here maybe 2 times a month absolutely recommend 10/10 breakfast would eat again read more

We just got a couple of shredded beef burritos and this time like the last few times... there wasn't much meat at all.... It's sad, because we used to like this place but we see THIER getting cheap on THIER customers. read more

You get what you pay for, the breakfast burrito is nothing amazing or to get excited about. I had potatoes with a sprinkle of egg and machaca burrito. My flour tortilla was brittle, tough and crunchy. That's great for a chimichanga but not a breakfast burrito. I will gladly pay up at Taco Bros, Leo's or Donut Nation. It's a super busy place, a lot of people in the drive-thru. $6-$8 for a burrito, that's cheap but it's filler. read more

The breakfast burritos are a staple. I love the chorizo, the bacon, the ham. Everything. When I'm really feeling like going for it, I go for the super burrito with guac, pico and sour cream too! Be warned that the drive thru line is slow and it takes a while, so it's not the place to stop when you're in a rush. read more

Best breakfast burritos in town by far. Been coming here since high school and they continue to be amazing! Service is always great, however everything is made fresh so there is a bit of a wait especially in the drive thru but it is definitely worth it and you can always call ahead! read more

I haven't been to Alfonso's in years and previously I always got their breakfast burritos, but today I went in for lunch. I had their shredded beef crunchy tacos with rice and beans. It was very good. I can't wait to go back and try more items. I also thought their prices were very reasonable. read more

Food was soggy, cheese enchiladas were dry, chicken taco salad was ordered with extra meat, and the chicken was big hunks of dry meat that was inedible. A waste of 55 dollars, definitely don't waste your money coming here read more

I've visited Alfonso's so many times over the years and they have always had decent food. They give quite a bit of food for decent prices. During this crazy time with COVID19 we have probably ordered a few times now and we have been pretty happy with our orders. I have never had a bad breakfast burrito here. They have a lot of different breakfast burrito options and trust me... if you have teenagers, they will get full with that burrito. Lunch and dinner options are really good too. They have pretty good chili relleno and I'm a fan of their enchiladas. They have these rolled tacos that are pretty good too with shredded beef... yum. Location is a plus for me because it's pretty close to home and not to mention they have drive-thru which is always a plus during this pandemic. Love that they are on board with safety. When you get to the window, they have their gear on. Masks and gloves and you can see through the window that they are prepping and handling with safe precautions. I definitely think you guys should come support this family owned business, especially during this time. Restaurant is clean, food is good and they are following safety precautions. read more

I have been going here for years because of my loyalty but it has gotten out of control. Breakfast burrito...all potato. California burrito...all potato. It is amazing that they fill a tortilla with mash potato's and think this is okay. Salsa is now a red water. This really sucks because this is a southwest staple of San Diego style taco shop but not anymore. read more

I've been coming here for years. Not only has the value stayed the same but the taste has never wavered. I typically only have the breakfast burritos, but recently have tried the taquitos and nachos (both of which I loved). Their hot sauce is flavorful and spicy. The service has always been great, but don't expect your food to be ready super fast. The inside is tiny, but it's always clean. I'd argue that this place has the best breakfast burrito in town. read more

Best breakfast burritos in Bakersfield hands down. My friend whose a Bakersfield native put me on this place and since then, I have brought somany people with me to this spot and without a doubt everyone absolute loves this place. The chorizo super breakfast burrito is my go to. It's one of those breakfast burritos that you are like I'll save half of it but then you cannot and then you finish the whole then and then you are in a food coma and you are like why did I eat all that at once. Pls try this place. read more

I love this place! This is definitely the spot for rolled taquitos! They are soooo good. Actually you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They have great crispy tacos and full size burritos. The staff is friendly and always courteous. And guess what? They have a drive-through! That is definitely a game changer. This is a must try place! read more

Great food! All the time! I've taken their food to several meetings and get rave reviews.

I try and give these people the benefit of the doubt because they get busy but they just prove time and time again they're incompetent idiots that work here. You let a line of 12 cars build up outside and ignore them completely while watching them through the window to take orders of the 4 god damn customers you have inside. And when asked WTF about the cars in the line and that we've been waiting your excuse is "the speaker on the machine is broken" are you kidding me?!?! Bunch of IDIOTS that's your excuse to ignore the drive thru line?!?! read more

Used to be one of my favorite spots to eat at but over the years it has sadly fallen off the food isnt the same anymore but the employees are always amazing read more

Absolutely amazing food. Everyone complains about the wait time. It's fresh to cook there's a wait for quality. Not to mentions the wait isn't even bad unless you are going at absolute peak hours. And when there's a wait that's amazing!! Love to see this small business flourishing. If you're thinking about leaving. Don't. read more
