7 Best Soup in Bakersfield

“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.“

“Walk in to tradional decor. Menu on shelf as you enter. But wait to be seated. Went during lunch happy hour nd Angel was just that. An angel that served a packed house. Served chips and salsa. And got our drinks. He recommended the wet burrito for me. My mother has the enchilada. Both were very delicious. Would recommend to friends and family.“

“Hands-down the best price for not only the quantity, quality & quickness of their food and service but their hospitality is amazingly awesome. To think we drove out to Bakersfield to celebrate my son's 21st birthday and every restaurant we went to said they had no tables available. So, we looked online and called uptrend Rice Bowl who to our surprise did have an available table. All I can say is, Thank God they did, because if it weren't for that we would've never discovered this great place!!! Would HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this place to ANYONE & EVERYONE!!!“
