I will never order take out from magracios. Because your food is gonna be terribly wrong from them. Ordering and making your order. They do not listen to your needs. When you order take out they listen to other things. And some of the staff do not speak english. They just speak espanyol and they don't speak english all the time. So if you order take out, your order is going to be wrong and it's not okay for your order to be wrong if you're spinning 60 to a $100 or food.

We have been long time loyal customers of Mauricio's for nearly 30 years when they were on the opposite side of Rosedale Hwy. While we know everyone has had to raise their prices, for close to 10 years now, Mauricio's has had the highest prices out of every Mexican restaurant in Bakersfield. We go to a lot!!! The quality and taste in food has gone significantly down in the past several years and yet the owner keeps raising the prices. For the past 2 years we keep saying we won't return, but always give in because of the service we receive from all of the waitresses and waiters. Tonight was THE LAST straw, as now you only get one refill on your drink and then have to pay $1.95 for each one thereafter. So now not only are they the most expensive Mexican restaurant with just mediocre tasting food, but now we can't even enjoy our sodas. No thank you! We helped support them over Covid and this is how they repay their customers. We will stick to our favorites like Rancho Grande!
In regards to your response to me, maybe you should instruct your servers to not fill the cup with 3/4 ice or use a larger cup. You pay pennies for the soda. It's the abundance amount of ice that is costing you, as the owner. And no, your tortillas are not all you can eat. We have paid extra if we have wanted more for our fajitas. That being said, we have always appreciated the endless chips and salsa. (Not even the salsa is consistently good anymore, though.)
You may notice that your restaurant is never packed like back in the day, so you can either choose to make some changes or keep wondering why your business is going elsewhere. You are the one trying to make a living, as well as provide jobs.
