Restaurants near Lake Isabella

“Very nice place to get a good dinner. The waitress was polite and kind and the food was really good. My wife got a burger that she really liked, and I got the fish tacos. The fish tacos were huge! I got a side of fries, because usually tacos aren't that big, but I only managed to eat two tacos, and a couple of fries. My kid had the Mac and cheese. I had a bite and it was so good! I'll definitely be back to try their Mac and cheese for adults.”

“Had to take it to-go because we traveled with our puppy, but I won’t go anywhere else for breakfast if we travel here again… The pancakes, eggs, and bacon, so simple, but good gawd it was everything. Not pictured was the dollup of butter on my pancakes, which melted before the picture, but just imagine it. Plus the service was amazing too!”

“I was in Kernville a couple of weeks ago & purchased a bag of your Mexican Chiapas coffee suggested by the fine folks at the Big Blue Bear. Your coffee is amazing & we are headed back to Kernville next month & I plan to buy several bags!”

“My normal go to for pizza. Today, not so much. Called at 11:00ish, ordered as usual. Was happy to hear it would be here within the hour. I don’t mind waiting as long as I know what’s up. So, around 12:10, I called to check. Guy said he left 10-15 ago. Around 12:30, he shows up. Pizza is ice cold. Tossed it in the trash. I mentioned what I was told when I called, he got angry called his company liars & me an asshole. Asked me not to order anymore. I agreed, as the pizza marginal at best. Pizza Barn is 10000% better.”

“Had a great time there. Good band playing. Friendly people, non-judgmental vibe. Would like to see a bigger beer selection, which is true of all bars here. Totally recommend this place though.”

Parking: N/A

Wheelchair accessibility: You can access all 3 doors by wheelchair.”

“I’m not sure why everyone is having a hard time with this location. The baristas have always been friendly and my orders are correct.

My only issue is that they STILL don’t have order ahead available, so there’s often a long, unnecessary line which makes customers agitated and baristas get flustered. ATTENTION MANAGEMENT: It’s 2025… I think it’s time to add order ahead.”

“There was a guy there with tattoos and a really cool fro that was super nice and had the best customer service skills. Ill be coming back again just cause of him, thanks my guy!”

“I haven’t eaten at a BK in almost two years but I just moved to the valley and I wanted something fast and easy so I figured I’d stop by.

Food was meh and prices were too high, but that’s corporate fast food shrinkflation for you.

What impressed me was the staff. I went through the drive thru last night around 7ish and the woman working was so friendly and nice. She gave me her suggestions for how to order the tacos and it was refreshing to interact with someone who didn’t seem bitter and jaded about her job.

I forgot something in my order and when I went back through about 15 mins later it was a man working the drive thru. He was also super friendly and smiled and really made coming here a good experience.

Overall, I was so shocked. Employees at any business, let alone fast food, just seem to hate their jobs anymore. These two didn’t and it was nice to see not one but two people smiling and friendly.”

“Great coffee and even better staff! - Ken from NJ”

April and Hailey two great lady’s with awesome personality and attitude to help you and serve you. I would give our experience a 10 out of 10 THANK YOU”

“Always friendly! Love the pizza, salads, and the home made bread!”

“If you're craving Mexican food in the area, this place should scratch that itch. The interior looks nice and clean, with nice decorations all around. The employees are nice and nice around pretty quickly to serve you. My wife chose a burrito and I had a fajita plate. The fajitas were ok, I wish they could have had a little more flavor. The beans and rice were good, the beans tasted homemade, but the rice was possibly premade. My wife's burrito was really good. It has more flavor than the fajitas, and it was pretty big.

The only real complaint I have was that we ordered an horchata and Jamaica (not on the menu) and they were both clearly from a really bad powder mix. They both tastes really weird, and nothing like they should have. Also, it seems like a cool place to get a drink with friends, but it closes so early!”

“Great place! friendly atmosphere, and the drinks are cheap!”

“Good place to hang out. Food was killer also. Mahalo”

“delicious food, great margaritas & friendly fast service!”

“great food, a little pricey but definitely worth it for what you get. ice cream is phenomenal. staff is the kindest in the valley.”

“Cool place.
Here on a visit from vegas. Not vegas, but it's a cool spot 😂
Nice that they're open.
Bartender (young female, orange hair) was cool and welcoming. Made us feel welcome in a new place.
Will visit again!”
