    Another amazing meal & drinks coupled with outstanding service at Bakersfield. Shout out to Lori. You made us feel extra special & we appreciate it. Missed Delaney, but Mario (server) was outstanding. Thx to Jeff for coming over to meet us, too. This place is the best Mexican food in Nashville. Coming from San Diego a few years ago, we have searched for good Mexican food and Bakersfield sits at the top of our list! See you next time.

    We came for a girls night and it was amazing. Drinks were on point. Food was delicious and quick. Jeff was our server and his energy and help with the menu was 10/10. He paced our meal perfectly and set us up for a night with such good positive energy. He was running around and caring for lots of tables, yet still made us feel like stars of the show. Such a great evening!
