L&B Mexican Restaurant

The food here is always fresh and amazing! The free chips and salsa is always so good! I love love love their burritos here, and the owners are super nice with smile to their face every time. I would go back just for the customer service alone!

The restaurant is nice but they really could make it more authentic and cozy. I came in to order take away. They were quick and very friendly. I didn't see what my food looked like until I got back to my hotel. The carnitas I have never seen served like this before. It was sliced so at first I was a little leery but it was so tender and had good flavor. The serving size was big! I thought their rice was perfect but the refried beens were very pale. A bit strange!All in all I enjoyed my meal. It fed me for two meals.

This is a cute & colorful restaurant, very family friendly. Classic rock plays in the background. They appear to be well loved by their regulars. My server was prompt & polite. They serve those very thin crispy homemade tortilla chips with a tasty roasted salsa, yum!I was just in for a quick snack and ordered a couple of crispy chicken tacos. My food came out quickly. They use those thin tortillas for this as well. I loved the crunch, but when the tortillas are that thin in a taco they disintegrate on the first bite so you just eat them with a fork. They were okay but not outstanding.

Stopped by to order a tray of rice for 50 people for a party and decided to try their food. They have several good specials, my husband ordered the chicken crispy tacos with a mimosa and I ordered the relleno and beans it was so delicious. If I had to describe this restaurant in one word it would be AUTHENTIC, reminds me of my mom's cooking. Great food and awesome customer service. Oh side note the large order of rice for our party was AMAZING !!

Wanted to try L&B based off the reviews. The restaurant wasn't busy on a Saturday night and we got seated right away. The chips and salsa came quickly and the salsa had good flavor. My husband had the quesabirra tacos and raved about how amazing it was. I had the beef flautas and they were good too. Their rice and beans had a lot of flavor. The staff were nice and attentive. The rest of my family enjoyed their meals as well. My Dad is older and we find it hard to find places where the music isn't too loud so we can still have a conversation. Even though they had a few TVs on and some music, we were still able to hear each other. Having tried their fries, I want to go back and get their asada fries. I really hope word gets out and more people come support this local business.

This is our first visit, and the two ladies here are very welcoming. The portion sizes are generous, and the quality and flavor of the food are excellent! I ordered the birria, and the meat was incredibly tender. We also tried the fajitas, which were delicious! The shrimp a la diablo was a delight as well. The green and red sauces added an extra kick to our meals. We highly recommend this place and will definitely return!

These enchiladas were steaming hot! The combination of cheese and sauce were delicious, they were definitely some creamy chicken enchiladas. The waitress was quick and attentive. The restaurant gave a homey vibe.

The food was like home cooked Mexican food. It felt like home. The food was as if my abuela cooked it. I recommend trying this place. The service is as friendly and genuine. The ambiance was calming and welcoming. The only complaint I Would have is the guacamole looked off, not green. The rest was absolutely wonderful.

Good food, liquor license pending, Lupita and Betty are great, and they offer happy hour. The salsa is a disappointment. That's the draw back, and they need better signage. The location is a challenge to find. But the food and the prices are outstanding! Search it out if you want some good Mexican food in NW Bakersfield!

First off service was great, they were very attentive. Only issue we had was that we had asked for corn tortillas on some tacos and they came in flour. We asked about it and assured us they were flour ‍. As for beverages they serve beer but no liquor yet, they did say they make a margarita out of some kind of wine but we passed on that. Chips and salsa hit our table almost immediately which I appreciated. Salsa had a Mild heat but decent flavor. I prefer spicy. Just before our food showed up though they came over with 2 bottles filled with a red and green salsa. Now that red salsa had some heat that sneaks up on you. Green one was good to. The carnitas plate came a bit different than normal. They are usually shredded but they came in looking like pork chops. The waitress explained that to me when I ordered them so I was ok with trying them. Came with lettuce guacamole tortillas rice and beans. Carnitas had flavor but a bit dry, rice and beans tasted like home made! Queso birria tacos were tasty and crispy. Carne asada tacos came in flour tortillas so they were pretty healthy in size. My buddy had no complaints. All in all I would go again.
