La Mina Mexican Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings

Been going here since I was a kid for over 20 yes. The tacos are always good some say they're a little greasy but that's what gives it flavor. The Chile Verde burrito is always good as well. Service is always quick and the girls taking your order always make you feel welcomed. It's not the biggest place in the world but I think that's what makes it standout compared to the other la Mina's 20 mins away in Bakersfield. You can also find the owner there most of the time greeting customers as well. Great taco shop

Words cannot explain how much flavor their food has. It’s a shame they open at 8 am tho.

Every time we come to visit family in Bakersfield we drive out to Lamont to La Mina. They have excellent homemade food. We have eaten tamales, menudo, quesa birria tacos, and their breakfast burritos on several occasions. Everything is always hot and delicious. If you have to wait a little it's because it's homemade. If you want fast food go down the street. The hidden gem!

my dad used to always take me here for lunch when I was a kid, the food is good. Never complained about it. I would still go to this place if I'm craving tacos in Lamont. It's affordable and the staff is friendly
