“ This place is so Awesome! Nemo and his Wife Betty are the BEST !! The sauce is so tasty and spicy thats what makes it great. ”
“ I highly recommend this place! I went with a friend and if I lived in Bakersfield, Daves Tacos would be a regular visit. Unfortunately, I didnt take any photos but they were delicious! The spicy were a little too spicy for me but Id definitely go again. The Raspberry Iced Tea was super delicious and will be very refreshing in the warmer months. When I visit again I will likely bring an avocado to add. ”
