From start to finish, they delivered! From their detailed-oriented event coordinator, Lis Clarke, to their friendly, attentive, and fun staff—I am thoroughly impressed! All of my large events will be held at Luigi’s from now on!”

“Oscar was our waiter for lunch. He’s very accommodating. He brought our drinks right away. Took our order. He was friendly, outgoing very positive vibe. Our order without any problems. The steak was cooked to perfection. Even asked if you wanted tea to go. he was an excellent waiter.”
“We stopped at this restaurant in Bakersfield on our way to Death Valley, and honestly, the exterior and overall floor setup might seem a bit deceiving at first — but don’t let that fool you. The food is absolutely delicious!
We ordered Malai Kofta, Sarson Da Saag, Paneer Butter Masala, along with Amritsari Kulcha with Chhole, Garlic Naan, Makke Di Roti, and Tandoor Roti — and everything was outstanding. The real standout was the Amritsari Kulcha with Chhole — just superb. Fresh, authentic, and packed with flavor. The breads were perfectly made — soft, flavorful, and served hot.
The owner and staff are incredibly welcoming and kind. You can truly see the pride they take in their service and freshly made, authentic recipes. Everyone in our group, including the kids, loved the food.
We will definitely be coming back again!”
“Carla’s Café feels like stepping back into a simpler time—when fresh ingredients, homemade recipes, and genuine hospitality were the heart of every meal. In a world that moves fast, it’s comforting to know there are still hidden gems like this that remind us how food is meant to taste: fresh, flavorful, and made with care.
From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed like family. Every bite reflects the kind of quality and attention that’s becoming harder to find these days. Places like Carla’s Café don’t just serve food—they help brighten your day and give you a small moment to slow down and enjoy something real.
Grateful to still have spots like this in our community. Easy 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Very kind service, fast and tasty food! I'm always looking for pupusa restaurants, I will be back to try the pupusas and hopefully the jamaica agua.
Today I tried the chicken tamales, corn tamales and rice, my first time eating a Salvadorian tamale, it was yummy, and the rice was also delicious! Thank you! 😊🫔🍚”
“Very disappointed in my kids turkey sandwich that I always order at the Mount Vernon location but decided to go here because I was in the area. The bread was so salty on top that I could not eat my sandwich and it had no mayonnaise on it and it was sloppily made. So needless to say I am very disgusted and disappointed with this location and will not be returning. These employees need to pay attention to what the hell they're doing”

“What a special treat to discover this restaurant my first morning in Bakersfield. Delicious Chilaquiles, and a coffee made with that very special natural sugar found everywhere in Colombia, South America, Panela! Topped off with salsa music. I’ll be back.”
“After leaving another area restaurant/bar due to zero service, we decided to stop into Nuestro Mexico. So glad we did. The servers remembered us even after it had been awhile since our last visit. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. From that moment on - the food, cocktails, service was ON POINT! Best decision we made. Comfortable atmosphere in historic central Bako. Highly recommended. We’ll be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We celebrated my birthday on taco Tuesday & we also participated in the line dancing after dinner in their brand new venue. It was rustic with a timeless, vintage flair. The line dancing was family friendly and so much fun. I had the steak salad. It was solid! Good size steak medallions in a super fresh bed of lettuce and assorted veggies including tomatoes and beets with home made blue cheese dressing. Our daughter who almost never finishes any of her meals consumed most of her taco salad which was a generous serving. She couldn’t stop telling us how good it was! Papa had the very flavorful ground beef tacos with a side of perfectly seasoned potato salad. We ordered a side of carne asada tacos which were a little on the dry and salty side. Although the place was very busy our server was very attentive and recommended their Ribeye special on Thursdays…so, we made it out again tonight to celebrate our anniversary. We both had the amazing ribeye special and boy was it special! Salad was once again so fresh and tasty. The baked potato and sweet potato fries were melt in your mouth yum. The rolls were toasted yet so tender. The steaks were seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection. No need for any condiments on these steaks. We thought it would be good but not that good! Salute to the outstanding chefs! Our server Jasmine was also very attentive and made us feel at home. We ate in the newly extended covered patio which was very inviting but could use better lighting on the outskirts of the patio. We are looking forward to trying the fish Friday specials including shrimp tacos next! Thank you Ethel’s for the outstanding service and for serving up heartwarming meals!”
“Stopped here while I'm visiting the town. I sampled their English Toffee ice cream. That's a winner if you can have nuts. Big chunks of toffee. Got a pint of that. They only sell pints in their special plastic containers so it's a bit pricey but you only live once. If I was going to eat it right away I would have just purchased a cone which seemed like the best deal. I also bought one of each flavor of chews they make. They do sell them individually. 8 in total. Though they do have 3 Sugar free ones too. I loved the Caramel and the Peanut Butter the best. Peppermint a close 3rd. Then, in their freezer section they do carry containers of half gallon ice cream but those do not fit in my RV freezer unfortunately, As well as, frozen bananas covered in chocolate and some in nuts and have Dubai Chocolate bars filled with Pistachio ice cream. Those sounded better than they were. The pistachio ice cream wasn't very flavorful. It's one of my favorite flavors of ice cream too so I had high expectations. And for $10.25. Just not worth it at all. So, that was a bummer. So all and all would recommend coming here for a cone or sundae and some chews if you're into that.”
“Love Nelson and the gang at Mauricios. Food is great. Price is right. They treat you like family. I highly recommend the guacamole, chips and salsa with a margarita chaser. ole’”

“By far the best butter chicken I’ve ever had ! My husband and I are obsessed. We eat here at least once a week. The atmosphere is always very relaxed and the employees are so nice and welcoming. Will definitely be a forever returning customer 💜”
“Stopped in for lunch, and was amazing as always. We’re a Frequent Foodie at Frugatti’s, because of the great service, food, and atmosphere. Don’t skip the dessert, you definitely need that. We met the owner, Ralph, today. It was fun to discuss his future plans and his passion for perfection. Best lace to eat in Bakersfield, hands down.”
“So, everyone talks about their Prime Rib, and yeah, it’s amazing—but honestly, don’t sleep on the NY Strip. It’s perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked just right every time. The service here is top-notch—super friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and has that perfect “let’s sit, relax, and enjoy a great meal” vibe. Every visit feels like a little celebration. Prices are fair for the quality you get, and you can really tell they care about both the food and the experience. I left already planning my next visit. If you’re craving a steakhouse where the food is incredible, the staff is awesome, and the vibe is just right, Hungry Hunter Steakhouse is the place to be. Can’t recommend it enough!”
“Tiki-Ko absolutely blew me away! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, welcoming, and full of personality. The drinks were creative, beautifully presented, and perfectly balanced—easily some of the best I’ve had. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do, which made the whole experience even better. Every detail, from the decor to the music, added to the overall vibe. If you’re looking for a fun, unique spot with top-notch service and unforgettable drinks, Tiki-Ko is a must-visit. Can’t wait to go back!”
“Phenomenal burgers. I will have to stop by when I am not in the middle of a 350 mile drive from LA to SF. The bar looks well stocked. We had lunch in the bar, but they also have indoor and outdoor dining areas. Really cool. Definitely worth going again.”
“The banana split is humongous!!! My kids call me big back dad because I eat alot! I eat so much I became diabetic (lol true story). Today I decided to split a banana split with my wife and the banana split knocked me out like AJ did Jake Paul.”
“This is one of my favorite places to go in town~ They always have the friendliest staff and their food never disappoints! Their new yaki noodles and tazuna rolls are really great. I loved their tazuna roll because I got to build what I like in it, since I always have the hardest time choosing between what roll I want. Their tea is so refreshing to drink! I got the mango black tea and it was definitely the perfect thing to have in today's hot weather. Great place to go for a casual lunch or dinner :) <3”

“I went to Fabulous Burger for the first time today (08/01/23) and was really impressed with my burger and fries. We also ordered the onion rings (great) and the zucchini fries which were exceptional. The portions were generous and the prices were surprisingly low for the quality of the food. I will recommend this place to all my friends and family.”

“The fries used to be cold as hell—like they just crawled outta a morgue. Now? Boom. Hot, crispy, beautiful. Tastes way better. Food’s actually fresh now, can you believe it? I’m lovin’ it. I’m swingin’ by like three times a week. Three! At this point they’re lookin’ at me like, “Hey Frank, you sick of this yet?”
Nah. Not even close. I’ll keep comin’ back till somethin’ breaks.”
“Very pleasant/professional staff. Great choices on their menu. Delicious food (five of us; each agree with different meals). Very nice ambiance. Fun history of the location.”
“The taste of the breakfast potato’s (my fave) & everything I tasted made sharing a meal with family the best of times!”
“I want to say I have ALWAYS loved this place! There's never been one day or night I went that was underwhelming. The atmosphere is intoxicating in the best way, the food is chefs kiss and high quality and presentation, and my Waiter last week Carter was the most understanding waiter I EVER had in all my years in this life. That man deserves recognition for the cordial humor, interpersonal skills, social awareness, patience, expeditousness and drive to be successful. Thank you Carter”

“I really the customer service💯. They are always on point! Everything I’ve ever tried is SOOO good! Jenny gots all the Crazy cravings you can think of! I rate this place a 10/10. Their prices are fair and reasonable. The vibe is so colorful and the workers are always so cheerful.”
“Tuve la oportunidad de venir a comer al Pollo Rico y la verdad quedé encantada con la variedad de sabores y las opciones del Menú, todo lo que degusté estaba delicioso, el pollo al carbón tiene un sabor exquisito, las empanadas y las papas rellenas súper deliciosas, los frijores y el arroz también me encantaron, en fin todo! La atención fue extraordinaria, mucho respeto y amabilidad y pendientes de todo lo que uno nesesitara, el ambiente estaba limpio y agradable y disfruté de la buena selección musical ofrecida en todo momento. Yo pienso volver muchas veces más y para mi es altamente recomendable este Restaurante”

“Absolute amazing experience used to come here as a kid and started coming back now as an adult and I’ve always had an amazing time everyone is nice as can be and service is ridiculously fast”
“The appetizer ceviche was 10/10 and different from any other ceviche I’ve had. The flavor was perfect. The appetizer fries were good too, reminded me of an upgraded animal fry…..I had the tempura shrimp tacos. Flavor was great just a little too battered for me…Overall loved it and will be back soon.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“BEST Mexican food in town. My husband and I have been regulars shortly after they opened their doors. They even catered our wedding which was a bit hit with our guests. Everything in their menu is delicious…I especially like the pasole which I order frequently. A must try…you’ll enjoy the food and the service.”
“Absolutely love it here. Every month there are faves, everything posted on IG as far as new menu items and updates, service is fast given its popularity, people are friendly and courteous. I am constantly impressed with how good their memory is. Menu is always 🔥. Prices are amazing.”
“Hey all, so Leslie, the mgr at this location in the marketplace is above and beyond amazing, as i dont comment much on reviews like this, but she keeps her restaraunt nice and clean like more of a restaraunt then a fast food place, her service is amazing and with smiles each time, and always a fresh pot of coffee in the am, shes one of a kind for fast food places, as i only remember one at a carls in hawthorne ca named Antonio who was similar, but Leslie is the deal, and ill only go to carls in bakersfield at this location! have a great day and god bless us all in these times now Travis P”
“Multiple food options, quantity and quality A+. Staff meet and greet with superb. Understanding and communication excellent. This has been and always will be my go-to pizza store. Sounds are good too but I kind of think that the size of the salad went down a little bit and the price didn't I could be wrong but anyways.”
“I really like their food; the zucchini sticks are delicious, and the breakfast burritos are tasty, they are very nice and take their time to cook the food to make sure it is cooked to healthy standards, I don't think I will ever get tired of eating here, I do hope though with the minimum wage hike to $20.00 hr. that it doesn't raise the prices to high, and have to close them down, to many small businesses and even bigger businesses are closing down now because they can't afford to pay their workers and keep the prices down where their customers can afford the food, but they are one of my favorite fast food places to eat on this side of town.”
“Their ice creams are super delicious and affordable. The staff and the owners are spectacular and extremely friendly. Every time I go they always manage to light up my day. They have new flavors every month in addition to their set menu of flavors which includes a wide variety of flavors.”
“Great dinner tonight. Great service from Jennifer Noblia. Love Urrichios’s!❤️”
“My husband and I have been regulars here for a while. The food and service here is just amazing. my favorite is the chicken marsala and lobster ravioli. Liz is the best waitress there hands down. Always so friendly! I can't recommend this place enough.”
“Do you want to feel special? Do you want to experience getting served at 3 course meal? Try their meals here they literally will melt in your mouth and dessert is the best part! I highly do not recommend bringing young kids this is an adult function. It's worth every penny. All proceeds go to charity”
Cheap Eats
“Our group, ten hungry people traveling from San Francisco to Los Angeles stopped in Bakersfield for Thai-Chinese foods. We were lucky, the owner did the cooking for us. Surprisingly, the quality of the food is authentically Thai and Chinese. Kee, the owner is a Chinese from Thailand and owns 3 branches in Las Vegas and other cities too. The service is excellent! and the facilities are very clean.”

“SO CUTE. What a hidden gem. Excellent wine bar. Great decor, easy vibes, light and bright. Wine and beer and small plates. Bar tender was so friendly. The little shop is adorable. They have decore and snacks and wine and beer for sale and olive oil infusion station and a grab and go cheese/ meats. Will for sure be back”
“The fries are super crispy inside & out. They're very generous w/ toppings & sauces, it lowkey overshadows the patty. If you wanna taste the meat I'd get the double.
They also give you a pager so you can walk around to the other food trucks.”
“Really good from the moment you walk in. Greeted by a beautiful woman with a beautiful smile. The waiter was engaged and helpful. The food was fantastic and the wine selection so good I bought and drank a bottle. Shocked an Italian Restaurant this good, in of all places, Bakersfield.”
“This is good place to eat they always have fresh food and great flavor I do recomend this place to all my friends and family. Caldo de pescado is the best in town.”
“Always have the best tasting beers 🍻 you can’t go wrong and they have the best service ! Been coming for years and don’t plan on stopping.”
“Love going to this restaurant. One of my favorite healthy places to eat. There aren’t many in Bakersfield that have locally grown food to enjoy a nice meal at. Besides, anywhere you go is expensive but here you’re getting quality food and locally sourced food. Heather was even there that day and came out and shared her vision with us. We are very excited for her and wish her all the best!!”
“Amazing food, service and atmosphere!! Ribeye steak was cooked perfectly and was one of the best steaks I've ever had.”
“Lengthwise The Pub exceeded all my expectations! The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between relaxed and lively, making it a great spot whether you’re catching up with friends or just unwinding after a long day. The food was fantastic—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care—and the drink selection was impressive with something for everyone. What really stood out was the service: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell they take pride in creating a great experience. Highly recommend stopping by—you won’t be disappointed!”
“First time trying and the staff took forever cause they were attending a bday table that was loud and obnoxious but we stayed and glad we did cause the food was really good. Cafe de Olla was good. Iced coffees not so much.”
“Great place for meeting friends and having a beer. But, I cannot believe you don't serve onion rings!”
“AWESome experience . We had as AWESome very attentive waiter. Especially with our huge party of 30 celebrating my G’son’s BIRTHday. Every dish in our party was soooo delicious.”
“The service is always so nice! Especially victor and his right hand man! The girls are always smiling and the Chile verde nachos are the best in town but please tell us if you’ve had better😊”
“O'Hennings is truly a hidden gem. I tend to go either Tuesday or Wednesday nights. The bartender, Sheila, is the sweetest person. The drinks were poured perfectly, and she got everyone at the bar to play games. Due to its location, I was sort of hesitant to go in, but once you step inside, it's very inviting and calm. The parking lot is well lit, and theres a Taco truck right outside with their own seating area, or you can take your food into the bar. The only downside is that it's kind of dated inside.”
“VIP Lounge truly lives up to its name! From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a stylish, upscale atmosphere that feels both exclusive and welcoming. The ambiance is perfect—great music, comfortable seating, and a vibe that’s ideal for a night out. The drinks are expertly crafted, and the service is top-tier: attentive, friendly, and professional. Everything is designed to make you feel like a VIP. Whether you’re celebrating or just unwinding, VIP Lounge delivers an exceptional experience. Highly recommended!”

“Everything is very delicious and the service and waitresses are very friendly 😋💗”
“Apparently my first review didn't post and those that waited on me and prepared my delicious meal deserve a glowing review and gratitude. Visiting Bakersfield, I decided to enjoy a steak dinner with lobster. I rarely eat shellfish but this entire meal was past a 10 and off the charts with deliciousness! ??? Major yummmmm!! I also enjoyed the brownie dessert that was topped with ice cream and scooped whipped cream. Oh my goodness gracious delectable. I also decided to order a slice of carrot cake to go and enjoy for the next 2 days. I was pleasantly surprised by the dessert being sent home with me as compliments from the management. The carrot cake slice was huge and sweet and delicious and I ate off of it for the 2 days of my visit. I know this is long but y'all must try the Stockdale location of Outback in Bakersfield, CA. As they say....G'day mates.”
“Been here before for Sushi but this is the first time for Teppanyaki. Very good. Must try”
“Really enjoyed this place. Small, quiet. Food is on the higher end side so prices match that. I had the Rigatoni with pepper and it was fantastic. Sauce was nice and creamy.”
“Very friendly service, good food and easy atmosphere. Every time we've gone it has been a pleasant experience.”

“Never a bad choice coming to La Costa, I do prefer this location over Ice Houze but both are AMAZING. The servers are excellent, the food is delicious, and you can’t go wrong stopping in here for lunch or dinner.”
“Been coming to champions for 2 months now and I gotta say i improved more than I thought I would in 2 consistent months, coach rock always corrects me from the ground up and always puts me on game when I need it. great gym, great people.”
“We had such a great time as a family for my husband’s Birthday! Thank You! Our Server was Great!”
“Luis , a teppanyaki cook was very entertaining, enthusiastic and food was awesome!”
“My husband has been saying he wanted to try Brazas for several weeks, and we finally made it in. We enjoyed incredible food, a wonderful mimosa bar and phenomenal service. I was literally texting friends and family giving them a play by play of our experience. Hands down the best customer service we’ve experienced locally in quite some time. We will definitely be back on a regular basis!”
“If you want the very tastiest, off the charts flavor shrimp cocktail then you have come to the right place. I’m not going to lie, first impression was a small trailer with a table to eat right in a gas station parking lot but All that fades away once you begin eating. The Clamato base and perfectly chopped veg and cilantro and tons of good size shrimp! They are not skimpy but generous to a fault in my opinion than most restaurants will offer and topped with ripe avocado slices! We were served both tostada style tortillas and saltine crackers and napkins and soup size spoons. The 32 oz tall cup was rimmed with Michelada Sal con Chile! PERFECTION in a cup. The proprietors are clean cut, nice uniforms and very accommodating and friendly and bilingual. We will return because there was nothing preventing us from becoming repeat loyal customers. The menu is extensive too! Bravo! Enthusiastic thumbs up! Well done! The 32 oz was large enough for 2 people to be satisfied (on this occasion). Try them once I guarantee you will be satisfied too”
“First time here. We had dinner here. I had been craving bulgogi for so long and this meal was so very delicious!!!! I paired it with the side dishes, white rice and the center plate with the tteokbokki and with the sauce…absolutely delicious! My friend had a seafood soup and I very much enjoyed that one too. The hostess was very sweet and welcoming. We had a great time and would definitely recommend!”
“McGarry's Irish Pub is a favorite of ours because of the wonderful service the staff, management, and security provide. The bartenders are very skilled in the profession. It is a very comfortable and clean pub.”
“My favorite pizza in town love the decor always feel relaxed with great music and amazing drinks. Pardon my French is my go to with a pizza margherita. No matter what you order it’s all delicious definitely recommend.”
“We had dinner there last night, one of the best fillets I’ve had in quite some time, lobster was excellent, service, off the charts. That folks is why we keep coming back!!!”
“I recently tried the Amritsari Kulcha here and was genuinely impressed. The stuffing was rich the crunch was perfect and the flavours were truly authentic. Excellent service and a must-try for anyone craving real Punjabi taste!”
“I went with my family of 11 yesterday and we had a great time we had the tempura roll and the mar y tierra roll the aguachiles and shrimp ceviche and every was pretty good like margaritas and micheladas were delicious too and my little liked the chicken tender and fries it is pricey so be prepared to pay the good stuff our waiter was amazing didn’t get his name but he talked Spanish and that’s always a plus”
“I tell people that I went from milk to Mexicali, Chinese and Basque. All three of the restaurants have been here well over 50 years and still going! Thanks for the memories.”

“Amazing food, ordered online, perfect pickup every time! Takoyaki is too die for....🥰”
“It was really good , but won't be going back just to support a dear friend that was let go by them. My friend is an amazing chef with great talent in cooking and I hope I have support from other's as well. Who ever hires him next will have an amazing person but a great chef.”
“You recently Changed the fries. People tell me they loved the thick perfectly seasoned fries. No one in my group likes the skinny dry fries. Can you bring back the old style fries, just give us less to make up for whatever you need to do. Thanks. We have been customers since you opened and we love the fish.”
“Great place to eat. I have been eating at El Portal since they opened on Ming Avenue. Now I enjoy lunch with my dad as often as possible.”
“Ever since the new owners took over they just keep improving!Mind u, I wasn’t a longtime customer from back in the day, however, in MY opinion, it has DRASTICALLY IMPROVED! Love the live bands almost every weekend, drink specials, KARAOKE on Thursday & Friday night & did I happen to mention the absolute BEST BARTENDERS ANYWHERE! As Toby Keith would say…”I love this bar” go check it out!”
“This may have just became my favorite taco spot!! Met with smiles at the window, I had questions beyond my Spanish capabilities and the lovely woman’s english, yet the cook/owner/ man behind the counter was so descriptive and patient. Tuesday had tacos for a Buck!! So I ordered some carne asada and el pastor. I also needed to try the rice and beans, they tell a lot about a business. We added two canned Pepsis and for under $15 fed both of us well. The asada tacos were perfection!! Melt in your mouth perfection, the produce was fresh, the salsa was dynamite, and I could have put down a dozen. El Pastor was delicious only dimmed by the excellence of the asada. Then the tell all… the rice and beans l… they were done by a perfectionist taught by a grandmother, or Abuela in this case. Whole pinto “pot” beans were seasoned to perfection and the rice was what I’ve been searching for since my favorite restaurant closed a few years back. If you haven’t tried this truck, Do It! After hearing the love coming from the cook as he described what things were, I’m coming back, going back, may never leave. There’s so much more I need to experience. I’ll keep you posted. Good no no, I take that back, excellent food!! Great prices! Lovely customer service!! Don’t miss out!!”
“Great service, extremely friendly, and the food was top notch. It took a little while for the food but the small wait was well worth it for the quality and price. Waitress asked if we needed anything often and she said on point. Will definitely be back.”
“Came in to the stockdale location and was greeted by Cameron and had a truly great experience just waiting for what was a super awesome great event quality pizza!!! Paige and Faith were also great and super friendly and professional and just went out of their way to say hello to me and even make some small talk while I was waiting what I thought was a very short amount of time compared to every other place in town….food was outstanding and wow just an all around great experience! Great local business and even better employees! Tony’s has my business 100% moving forward!”

“Michelle made a PERFECT birthday basket for a relative - specific to their taste and delivered it for me. I live in Texas. The entire experience was delightful and the birthday girl loved it. I will be a repeat customer ❣️❣️❣️”
“Is this authentic Italian food? No, but I do like the food here. My usual is spaghetti with meat sauce and I also get meatballs and a side of alfredo sauce to pour on top of my meat sauce. I really love their meatballs. They're delicious to me. I have had other entrees like eggplant parmesan, fettuccine alfredo, tour of Italy, and chicken parmesan to name a few, but I always go back to ordering my usual. I'm not a big fan of their breadsticks. The only time I like them is when they are hot and fresh, but usually they don't come to us that way. Their salad is OK. It's not the best I have had. I do really like their soup. My 2 favorites are Chicken Gnocchi and Zuppa Toscana. I like these 2 soups so much that I have copycat recipes for them and make them throughout the fall and winter when temperatures drop. Their customer service is usually pretty good. One issue at this location that is not appealing is when we get our salad/soup, within 2 minutes, we get our food. We don't have enough time to eat our salad/soup and our food gets cold in the meantime. Someone really needs to figure this out. This has happened to us several times we have been here. I also have noticed that hosts and hostesses leave a slip of paper taped to each table which is to make sure the manager visits every table before the customers leave. As much as I appreciate the idea and sentiment of this, it needs to be utilized better. The manager comes around to each table with her iPad in hand and without any personality asking how our food is or visit is going. To me, it doesn't even seem like she cares. It seems more like she's just checking a box. This isn't a restaurant that we normally go to, but it's nice to come to occasionally.”

“We went here to pick our daughter’s 13th birthday cake. And wow, absolutely amazing, beautiful and delicious. Went above and beyond our expectations. The young ladies that worked there were so patient and kind the atmosphere was so warm and inviting I would highly recommend. I absolutely love this little bakery.”
“Very disappointed in my kids turkey sandwich that I always order at the Mount Vernon location but decided to go here because I was in the area. The bread was so salty on top that I could not eat my sandwich and it had no mayonnaise on it and it was sloppily made. So needless to say I am very disgusted and disappointed with this location and will not be returning. These employees need to pay attention to what the hell they're doing”
“Took my daughter for her birthday. The place was busy. The staff took the time to greet us. Took our order right away. One of best part of this little gem is. The old school menu options. I had an open face turkey sandwich. 1980's reruns of the price is right. It took me back to my childhood.”

“extremely poor service. my boys were at a birthday party and it took an hour just to get drinks, at that they warm bottled drinks. then it took another hour or longer to get food. no one ever walked up to them for 45 min. and was not even a busy night not very many other customers their. never came back to refill. the drinks. extremely unacceptable service. it is sad when you can get better service and food from a food truck than an actual restaurant. not sure where to leave star rating but it would be -⭐”

“AMAZING COFFEE! The staff was knowledgeable and super friendly! It was our first time there and we asked what the cashier what drinks she recommended and boy was she right! I loved the fact that she didn't seem annoyed by us asking about the menu! She's great! The drinks were so flippin good. I didn't get a picture before trying them but they were topped with whipped cream and cinnamon on the dirty horchata, the whipped cream and chocolate syrup on the banana mocha drink were perfectly balanced! Not overpowering and not too sweet! It's definitely our new favorite place for coffee. Highly recommend this place for some great coffee!”
“We went to Sequoia National Park from LA and while returning back we found this Gem near Bakersfield it’s the only one open late night. The Location is on point with open table setup under the sky with heaters.
“No matter what you order I know it’s gonna be delicious” that’s my statement on food.

“Stopped into Rooster’s Cantina and let’s just say… The nachos disappeared faster than we’d like to admit and the burger absolutely hit the spot.
Huge shoutout to our server, Brooklyn, who brought great energy to the table. Friendly, fun, and the kind of service that makes a place feel like your new go-to spot. Great drinks, tasty bites, and a comfortable vibe. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Came here for first time for a baby shower. Was definitely a cool place. The bartender was friendly and set me up with a binch of delicious beers. The back room was nice, had lots of tvs with all the football games. Also a few arcade games. Not sure if the pizza we ate came from here, but if it did it was really good too. Definitely will be back again, they are less then 5 minutes from my house.
Update,
Came here for a Flatspots show, had a great time, had some good beers for the show. Definitely recommend this place”
