Good service! Foods are on salty side to me. Eat with salad & white rice to make it milder. Good portion!

Well, now that I moved back to Bakersfield, decided to give them another try for happy hour and man was I happy that I did stop by. Was very pleased with my visit today. Came by at 3pm and sat at the bar where the friendly bartender let us know that on Tuesdays, it's happy hour all day. They have some really good deals there for $5 plates of food and good prices on beer/drinks. They have a happy hour menu, daily specials menu and the regular menu so make sure to check them all out. We decided to go with the $5 nachos and the $5 birra tacos and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT. It was so good! Would have to rate both dishes a 10/10 as flavor and quality were both GREAT. Got a $5 amber beer on draft as well that paired very well with my food. Overall, I can't wait to come back again and try more things. Thanks Camino for a yummy lunch today, till next time.

I don't understand why someone is trying to turn Camino Real in to a run down Hometown Buffet or Golden Coral? The buffet was the saddest looking yet at 12:30, displayed no pride. I thought it looked really dull and with the addition of soggy corn on the cob replacing a good Mexican item, sad! The baked potato section was not Sizzler enough(I am not knocking Sizzler, it has its place!) so maybe replace the chili verde with macaroni salad? How about the enchiladas with corn bread and the albondigas to a canned vegetable soup? I usually spend $30 on lunch with a beverage, there is no reason for Mexican food lovers to frequent a place wanting to go "Taste of Home".

Absolutely phenomenal! Finally found a place that has BOTH amazing food AND drinks! The menu and cuisine is so unique and flavorful! We drive across town to come here! Nice vibe and clean inside, as well. This week we recently came on Taco Tuesday where they have Happy Hour running ALL DAY! The (giant) BOGO taco plates (Tropic Thunder & ribeye) , small bites and happy hour house margarita with raspberry add-on already had me wanting to go back to eat there again the next day We've also tried the Real Chicken plate and birria hopes which was amazing. Even the kids' menu offers a great portion and options. The server is always so helpful with menu suggestions and offers great customer service. Already dreaming about when we will be back!

We had a huge family dinner with 13 people, and it was a great time. Service was excellent and of course the food was wonderful. Definitely a good experience!

Food wasn't that good. It wasn't terrible but definitely not good. It's super overpriced. I got the 3 item combo. They gave me the wrong item. Chips and salsa aren't free which is crazy because it's a Mexican restaurant. La costa is just as expensive but at least they give delicious chips and salsa. The server was nice and attentive. The atmosphere was nice and clean. I definitely wouldn't choose this place again just based on the quality of the food and price.

First time I order food from here through DoorDash and it was a good experience good taste of food good presentation and good portion I think it will become my favorite place.

Good vibes & good service! Parking is plenty and easy. It's a shared parking lot with other businesses. I'm a sucker for horchata & it's sooo good here, not too rice-y or cinnamon-y. A bit on the pricey side but they give you a big jar of it. Guac with flour chips is bomb diggity, I can eat it forever. Queso dip too! Asada & birria tacos from $5 bites was just okay, didn't really like it but it's cheap.

Excellent vegan options. The serving size is satisfying and the service is good. I was surprised however when the check arrived and they charged me for salsa. But perhaps I should've expected it as chips and salsa are purchased items - the only Mexican restaurant I've been to where chips and salsa are not brought to the table as included with purchase.
Best Mexican food, best drinks, best service. The pepper jack sauce on everything is great! My husband's favorite is the chile verde pasta! Best refried beans in town. The weekend Bruno and lunch buffet are awesome. They also do large catering boxes that we use for work events too. On the weekend it's quite the party place with open seating and a bar.

Very bad, not recommended, the food is all raw, the potatoes are very raw and it takes more than 1 hour for them to bring you the food.

Just a 10 out of 10 - Pablo is a server & host more people like him the better - food is unreal - soccer on. Buffet is good for a quick lunch

Weird digital menu and they don't have many things available on it, I asked about many dishes and they said they don't have it? Food was okay.
