Great food, and even better people. Served hot and fresh, great flavor. The tortillas tasted fresh. I will definitely be back again. The owners came around and asked how the food was. The place definitely has the potential to be super busy with the quality and the value. When this place does get busier good look finding a table. The ambience is cozy and casual. Minimal drink selection with the bottled beverages. Worth a shot and I am willing to be you will be back for seconds, thirds, and start including it in the rotation. read more

The birria was basically clumps of fat instead of meat. It does take a while for the order to be ready, so call ahead

I am always impressed with everything I get. From their asada fries to their tortas to their quesabirrias, everything is so flavorful. The staff is also super sweet and I always have a good conversation with them. The location is small in size so there is limited seating so keep that in mind if you want to go as a large group. Other than that, the vibes are great and it's always a good time there. read more

We found this little place and we decided to go give it a try. Its small but they are so kind and attentive. From the time we entered ordered till we finished our meal. The food is great, and prices fair. Service was great and the chile sauces I loved. The place is clean and very nicely decorated. There are about 5 tables that seat 4 each. We definitely plan on returning for another shot to taste more authentic things on the menu. read more

Best hole in a wall place i have had in years. They have fresh food and know how to spice it up.

Garcia's Mexican Grill is a such a hidden gem! Beautifully decorated, tropical atmosphere, and the friendliest cook you'll ever meet. The food is absolutely exquisite and authentic, felt like it was made by someone who grew up cooking for the world's luckiest children. The food was a chef's kiss. Can't wait to come back! read more

So came to have a quick bite to eat and heard that this place has really good bead tacos so I wanted to come and try it. It is a cute little vibe, but they only have canned sodas and you have to ask if you could have ice and it seemed like there was an issue just to ask for a cup of ice.. so I receive my tacos and it had like little tiny pieces of birria and I asked the server I said is this how you guys always serve your tacos and she began to ask the manager I'm assuming or the owner and she came and she said that's how it's made. I don't know what to tell you and I was like OK I was like confused because I expected meat in my taco not pieces of meat cane $40 for two plates but with scraps of meat and she was so rude about it didn't say hey let me make it again and I'm not sure if it's because she thinks that I don't speak Spanish or understand Spanish, which I'm very fluent in, but she had no care in the world and I'm pretty sure if I was Mexican it wouldn't be the same energy so it definitely do not recommend this place especially I have no problem paying for an $80 steak that's delicious but if you're going to charge and have these prices, make sure that your food delivers the satisfaction read more

Okay this place needs more traction. It's not very visible and quite lowkey but these fries are bomb! Seeing as I'm on this side pretty often this is 100% in the weekly lunch rotation. Whatever sauce they put on these fries freaking hit. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside! Amazing! read more

Garcia Mexican Grill - Earthquake Fries Plate - Latin American Near Me - Bakersfield, California

So a bit of an update, I would say it's a hit and miss when you decide to dine in. Usually we order ahead so our food is ready for pick up, we don't eat in but the one time I recommended this place to my mom and we decided to have lunch here.. well it wasn't the best experience. There was a group of 3 ahead of us, then us and then another group of 2 came in a couple minutes after us. The group of 3 got their order first of course, so we thought okay cool we're next.. well she ended up bring out the wrong order to us and then looked at us all surprised when we told her that isn't what we ordered and when she asked what we ordered she was saying that it wasn't showing up in the system (we ordered through the kiosk) and it ended up being the other group of 2 order that came in after us. We waited a total of 45 minutes to get 2 plates.. the food was good don't get me wrong but the wait time it took for food to be made and brought to us wouldn't keep us from dining in the future nor recommending this place as a sit down restaurant or dining. Probably will keep ordering over the phone but not in store. Oh! Also, there is only 1 salt shaker everyone must share, no salt packets as well & your food might or might not look like the photos.. or maybe it was just mines since we already waited so long maybe they just quickly made it. Just slightly disappointed since I hyped up this place. read more

What a great little jewel to find in Bakersfield! The owner is so nice and really went above and beyond to make this place a cute and fun dining experience! I recommend stopping here if you get the chance! Great customer service and great food! The place is decorated so cute and he really had great attention to detail. I will definitely stop back by the next time I'm in town. I can't do spicy, so he kept giving me samples of the different sauces before I ordered to make sure things weren't too spicy before I ordered them. Such a great guy! Check it out! read more

Garcia Mexican Grill - a plate of shrimp and pasta - Latin American Near Me - Bakersfield, California

The service is always awesome! We are always treated with a friendly welcome from the staff/cooks. They offer to either order on the self ordering machine or someone to help you place your order. The place is a bit small but very cute. My family and I love their quesabirria taco plate! Depending on your taste the food maybe slightly salty, but still delicious regardless. I really recommend trying this place out. read more

Thee best birria tacos I've ever had, they were crispy even taking your last bite! Everything was hot and not even the slightest bit greasy. The service was very kind and helpful, it's small and quiet and a really great hidden gem! read more

We always come here, we love it! Food is always above satisfaction. Great flavors and quality. Quick & friendly service, great food, prices, and they always make it upon order for us too. The only thing that is somewhat negative is how small their portion sizes are! We all got the 3 taco combos with rice and beans, and the taco's are like 3-4 bite sized, and the beans and rice not very hefty in portion size either... But it was actually nice because it fills you up without overstuffing you... and the flavors are SO on point so it's worth having smaller portions for great food. The rice is so fluffy and red lol, it's very vibrant and beautiful looking rice! And it tastes just as good as it looks. The beans are not overly creamy and their graciously cheesy. Very tasty. The chicken was tender, flavored well and was juicy, & the asada was the same... Combo's don't come with drinks, but the combos are only 8$ & something cent's, So it's still a good deal. I don't think we've ever come here and have had a bad experience! It's always a pleasure, their earthquake fries are amazing too! read more

Garcia Mexican Grill - Number 17 Wet Burrito - Latin American Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I was really excited to try out this restaurant because of all the attention it had been getting from a tik tok video I had seen. Unfortunately the restaurant did not live up to the hype. All the staff seemed very stressed out and unorganized. I placed an order and I had 1 dish come out right away while the rest of the order took about 20-30min to come out. I had to continually ask for things we had asked in the order that you would expect to come out before your meal like drinks and chips and salsa. When the rest of our order finally came out the beans were spoiled. I asked the server if they had other beans we could have but she said no. We ended up having to buy beans from a business a few doors down just so we could have beans with our meal. Needless to say I will not be returning. read more

Delicious Mexican food! Recommend it and very good customer service. Nice family place!

Came to try this place because of TikTok machine was down I wanted water and it was warm. I bought one for 1.50. Then when you order it automatically wants to charge you a 10% tip. Then it's super warm in here. But the food made up for it, it was good. Doubt I'll be back again too far for me. read more

Great food excellent service. A must try. Delicious . Atmosphere is quiet. Sunday Mariachi

I remember back in the 80's a Mexican restaurant called Garcia's on Niles St. They made the best thing they called Lupitas. They had their delicious birria with Monterey cheese served like a quesadilla. Well they have been gone for quite some time so when I saw another Garcia's Mexican Grill in town I had to try it out. Sure enough they have a delicious birria served similar to the Lupitas! It is called the Quesa Birria Plate. Highly recommend! read more

When I tell you this food was so bomb I didn't even have time to take a photo lol stopped by after seeing an instagram video and it did not disappoint. The decor was adorable. The tacos governador were 10/10! I could've ate like 10 of them And the earthquake fries were also delicious. To be honest the earthquake fries would've tasted better with some of the bell peppers and onions from the tacos governador but still good. And that fresh Jamaica was the cherry on top. Definitely going again. read more
