Jacalito Grill

Great service. Great food. Great Margaritas .

Great food very good sports bar minimal amount of restroom area that is it

Horrible service when it gets busy. I understand it's busy but the waitresses seem more interested in talking friends instead of being waitresses.

Happy hour! Tasty food, good draft beer. The mixed drinks not as good.

Jacalito Grill is reliably mediocre. I know what I am getting when I go there. I generally order the taco and enchilada combination plate, and it generally satisfies my appetite.

I would caution against ordering ground beef from here. In the past, I made the mistake only once and was incredibly disappointed in the oily excuse of a taco they put on my plate. The shredded beef is a much safer bet.

The enchilada is nothing to write home about, and the sauce is pretty forgettable. They do, however, provide a reasonably generous portion of cheese inside. But even that cannot make the bland item stand out.

One of the best parts of the experience is the chips and salsa. The chips are pretty average, but the salsa is decent. While it certainly will not win any awards, it's tasty enough.

The combination plate I ordered was $10.99 which included the drink. While this is a reasonable price for Mexican food in Bakersfield, I would be hard pressed to pay any more than that during non lunch special time.

I will definitely come here again, but I'm not excited about it.
