My review has everything to do with the experience and nothing to do with the food itself. With that being said let me start. I have a group of sister friends that celebrate each other whenever birthdays come around. Whomever birthday it is they choose where we go. This time around it was Bakersfield. She had been there previously and talked about what a great time she had. I personally was looking forward to enjoy my evening. Unfortunately that didn't happen. The waitress was horrible! We had questions about menu items which she did not wait to hear before we we're interrupted and got a summary of what she thought was our question. Others who were waiting patiently to ask her their questions were left hanging. As soon as she would answer said question she would quickly excuse herself stating she would be right back and we wouldn't see her until another 10 mins rolled on. No silverware was given to us after asking twice! One person of my party actually got up to search for someone to give us silverware! Plates we were given that had food on them from not properly cleaning them. When brought to their attention no apologies were given they just picked up the plates and left. When ordering it was stated that an ingredient should be left out of her order due to allergies. They came back with her order with only 1 out of 3 tacos with the ingredient left out. Mind you she had no time to protest because the waitress was gone as soon as food was placed on the table. Then miraculously we have another young lady helping us with our needs. She was polite and helpful but she did give us the feeling that we were being rushed. This solidified those feelings when she was speaking to another staff stating "we need to go" Yes. We heard you! You were right behind us and although I'm sure you thought because of the noise level we couldn't possibly hear you we did. Items we did not order were on our checks. It was just not a pleasant dining experience. To the point the birthday lady kept apologizing for even suggesting the place. I think I speak for my whole party in saying we'll never cross Bakersfield doors EVER again.
