Bakersfield food was so fresh and yummy! Great people working there also, knowledgeable and friendly😄 it is kitschy western themed but did not bother us

Chips and guac were great. Use the green sauce. The short rib torta did not disappoint. Good food, nice staff, and good ambience.

Fish taco was tasty and pastor taco was nice and spicy. Hongo taco lacked flavor unfortunately. It was easy to get a table for 3 on a Sunday evening. Service was speedy and helpful.

Great tacos. A little overpriced. But happy hour was packed. Queso was real cheese you could tell. Nice place for groups and outdoor patio.

Short rib tacos are BOMB. Awesome quac and queso and top notch Margs. Great staff as well! Can't wait to go back.

start with a damn fine quac and/or cheese dip and get as many papas tostadas as you can possibly eat. no kidding. they are filthy good. other veggie taco options are ok - not great.

As a regular at the Bakersfield in the OTR, Cincy happy to see them open in the Short North. Great Guac!

Great guac, fantastic tequila selection. Only downside is this place is wall-to-wall bros.

If you like it spicy and don't mind ginger, try the Red Headed Stranger. Short rib taco is my fave.

Don't go during a busy time, you will wait forever to be greeted and then no one will even acknowledge you. Won't be back which is sad because we didn't even get to eat....
