Have eaten there a couple times and the feel is that of a clubhouse... if your part of the gang you get all sorts of attention, if your not, "we'll get to you when we get to you." The food is meh, nothing to recommend if you're recommending basque food. The area is sketchy and I always feel I have to go check on my car half way through my meal. I also detected some attitude, that was less than welcoming, from the patrons towards a family that was not culturally similar to the rest of the patrons. 50s racial attitudes.

Pyrenees is a well known and long appreciated restaurant in Bakersfield. A group of old friends planned to meet to celebrate a birthday recently. I was not able to join them but wanted to do something special for the birthday girl. I called the restaurant to see what could be arranged. A lovely woman answered and when I explained my wish, she told me about the amazing sounding desserts and I made my selections, put them on my card and thanked her for being so helpful and kind. When my friends arrived they were ushered to a table set with a pretty bouquet of a variety of garden roses and wished the birthday girl a special day. She took pictures as well. Of course it goes without saying that dinner was the usual excellent Basque family style food and the desserts got rave reviews. For me the best part of the experience was the kind, efficient and very thoughtful staff person who assisted me and then went the extra mile adding the beautiful roses. Now Pyrenees will forever be my favorite of the excellent Basque food restaurants in Bakersfield.

Excellent food and service. I had the lamb chops with all the sides and my husband had the lamb burger. Everything was very good.
