“we had a brief overnight in Bakersfield on our way from Northern California to Southern California and we found this place after googling vegan breakfast. It was absolutely incredible. My husband, our three kids, and I have been all over the world and all over the US as well and I would say this was genuinely in the top tier of restaurants we have been to. We were also impressed by the blue zone certification, which we did not know existed, despite being aware of blue zones. I highly recommend it!“
“So many delicious options to choose from. This is my go to when I want to go breakfast with someone. I have never got a bad meal here. It's been delicious every time. Their pancakes bomb, sea food omelette bomb, biscuits and gravy bomb! I love that they have healthy options too. They have an option to get Ezekiel bread for your toast, they have sugar free syrup, and Himalayan pinks salt for those that care about that like me. My favorite there are the omelettes and their potato's are delicious! There's so much to to choose from. You'll walk away satisfied for sure, and the waitresses and waiters are always so kind and so such a wonderful job. It has a local restaurant diner feel but with high quality food and ingredients. 5 stars!“
“GREAT food and lot's of it! For breakfast try the chicken fried steak, biscuits & gravy, or breakfast burrito (my wife loves the pancakes and eggs benedict). They have a large selection of omlettes, too. They even have mimosas!For lunch - best Pastrami this side of New York! They also make great burgers. I really like their chicken sandwich. The service is always great. They keep the coffee cups full and they must treat their employees well as many have been around for many years and smile as they work.The only downside is there is often a wait because, well... because so many people love the place. It's worth waiting for!This really is my favorite restaurant. I just wish they were open for dinner, too!Wheelchair accessibility: That have a ramp and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible.“
“I tiny country diner just minutes yes from the city. I experienced a warm welcoming atmosphere with regulars and people from the road, old 99, outside. The service was good, as was the chicken fried steak and eggs I ordered. The big breakfast included biscuits and gravy for my choice.“
“Friday night party in Yard House Bakersfield has it going on! Date night at the Bar Yes! The service excellent the ample parking lot well lit. FREE PARKING.Vegetarian options: Just inform your waiter how you like it trust they can do it!Parking: No parking fees here. Yes ♿️ spaces more than 5 spaces close to the entrance. ♿️ come on entrance easy.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes!!!“
“Stumbled upon this gem while in town for the weekend. It’s a wonderful old school diner with amazing service and good food as evidenced by the consistent rotation of guests coming in and out. The pancakes, French toast, eggs and sausages were delicious and made exactly in the old school no nonsense way I’m looking for in a diner. After mentioning to the waitress that I overheard her mention chilaquiles to the table behind us and that I was bummed I hadn’t noticed them on the menu before ordering, she brought me a small plate so that I could try them. You only get this kind of genuine service at mom & pop places like this. Besides the service, the eggs were perfectly scrambled, the pancakes were fluffy, everything was fresh. Will 100% be back here next time I’m in town.“
“Seriously the BEST burgers and fries in town. I feel like the best way to describe it is that in and out and Freddie's had a baby. My fav is the passionfries - it's basically animal style fries with a patty & cheese on top. If I could give more stars I would.“
“Today I had the pleasure of eating here at this location i don’t know where to start when you come in the hostess treats you amazingly you feel welcomed the food was incredible I had a bacon cheese hamburger it was incredible it actually tasted like a hamburger it’s hard to actually find a place with a good hamburger but this place is incredible my waitress was incredible she went above and beyond to provide great customer service she made me feel welcomed she was attentive and made sure I dididint need anything else service was incredible thank you Michelle for providing great customer service I will definitely be back here to eat more often“
“Excellent place for sandwiches. Specially when you are looking for vegetarian. I was not a fan of sandwiches until I tasted theirs. Excellent service and good taste. Recommend all.Vegetarian options: Excellent veg sandwichesKid-friendliness: Employees are kind to the customers“
“The staff is 5/5, incredibly kind and welcoming. The restaurant is bright and comfortable, giving you homey vibes but still clean and tidy. The Chilango Benedict is among the best eggs benedict dishes I've ever had. Highly recommend stopping here for great food and friendly folks!“
“We usually stop here for lunch but today we stopped for dinner the food was delicious plates looked appetizing Marcelo was our server and we enjoyed his service we will continue to come back we took our desserts to go and Damian the cashier helped us out we ended up buying 2 desserts to go.“
“This morning, my team at Jim Burke Ford in the Bakersfield automall was surprised by Hope and the catering team from our local Cracker Barrel. Hope brought the team an amazing pancake breakfast. Nothing spreads joy better than a hot stack of fluffy, buttery pancakes on a cool morning.Thank you, Hope, and the team at Cracker Barrel for supporting and taking care of local businesses and the community.“
“The Botanist is a one-of-a-kind experience here in Bakersfield. It truly feels like a bar that belongs in a bigger city. They have lovely decor with drapes and oil painting portraits everywhere. Wait staff are friendly and responsive. Our primary server was delightful and all the others we interacted with were courteous and quick. The drinks were exquisite! I ordered Pineapple Express which was sweet but not syrupy sweet. My lovely wife ordered the February Twin Flames drink which really tasted like drinking a rose - just wonderful! Seared cauliflower with herbs and maybe pistachios and a nice dill sauce (but not overbearing with the dill) was the perfect starter. The crispy shrimp burger was great!! And we can't say enough about the yellowfin tartar except to say it was a very elevated rendition of poke! Garlic fries were a nice accompaniment. And for dessert - we shared a LOVELY crème brûlée with raspberries and mint leaves. It is expensive, but in this case you get what you pay for: attention to every detail of food and drink, a trendy but cozy ambiance, and excellent service. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE BOTANIST.“
“The best burger there is available for the price. Everyone should have this fast food joint in their to do list. Went inside the store again on 11.7.23. The shift supervisor has a very bright career ahead of her as she exemplifies leadership in the best way. Modeling the way, encouraging the heart, and being direct but supportive were evident on display during the evening. For a young professional, I can see that she wS raised well and the staff had her back. Restaurant was clean and well kept. Food was amazing as always. Congratulations Stockdale Bakersfield.“
“We decided to have breakfast here after reading the reviews and let me tell you they did not disappoint! Everyone was super friendly. We didn’t even get through the door before we received a cheerful welcoming. You don’t get service like that often anymore. The food was amazing! I left so full I just couldn’t stop eating. Literally everything about our time here was beyond compare.“
“The Country Fried Steak (one of my dinner go-to's) was not that great. The cut of the meat throw off the whole plate. Biscuits had great texture. My dad ordered the Spencer Hobo Omelet, pretty good. It was busy throughout our meal. Besides that one issue with the texture of the meat, no other complaints. I'd come back, just not for the CFS.“
“Come eat here, you won’t be disappointed. The menu has something for everyone, at the same time it isn’t overwhelming. This place takes the time to present the plates in a manner that is pleasing to the eye. More importantly they use high quality ingredients that are sure to please your taste buds.I’m addition to to great food they take the time to create a fun and comfortable atmosphere. The play an eclectic mix of music that isn’t obnoxious. You’ll here old favorites and new songs that will become your favorites.Most importantly NVG has put together an unbeatable team. You will be greeted with a warm and friendly face. Your server will be excellent in every way. Temo, Zenia, Olivia, Carrie, Haleigh, Krystal and Brittany are part of the excellent and friendly team at NVG.Give them a try. Whether you’re a local or just passing through you will be glad you did.“
“Cute spot to grab a burger and their milkshakes are ahhhhmazing! You will definitely leave full! Service was very prompt and friendly. We ordered the chicken taquitos to start - the mango salsa is really just plain mango's and didn't really go with the vibe of the dish but overall it wasnt bad. We both got burgers and a shared the unicorn milkshake.“
“Sunday afternoon late lunch was great with delicious fig burger, Mac & cheese balls, and a German Pilsner. Service was friendly even though it was a little slow. They were busy, but our waiter was attentive and let us know the status of our order frequently. The Fresno fig burger medium rare was cooked perfectly and had such a great taste with the sweet and savory. And the Mac & cheese balls were cheesy and so yummy. Would have been great to sit outside on such a nice spring day, but the patio was full. Next time!“
“Consistently great food and service. Atmosphere is subdued and quiet, which we appreciate. Great steaks, burgers, fish, and superb cocktails. Nice patio or dinner indoors. When everything else in Bakersfield has an hour wait you can get right in at the Crest. It's a regular go to for us.“
“Went to Old River Grill for breakfast. So nice to be greeted so kindly when we arrived. The place is neat, clean and inviting. Every plate that was ordered was so good. We could see when delivered that it was fresh and hot, bacon crisp, potatoes just right, coffee hot and fresh. Everyone fully enjoyed the food and the great service from all of the staff. If you are looking for a nice spot for a delicious breakfast consider this new location of an old favorite.“
“We had a reservation for a table of 8 at 5:30 on a Saturday night. We were promptly seated upon our arrival. They were immediately there for our drink menu and appetizers. We were let know that it was our table for the evening if we wanted. From the drinks to the acoustic assemble to Johnny Owens the night was fantastic. We danced, had cocktails and a great dinner with not a single disappointment. I highly recommend this place if your in Bakersfield. Hard to find a good dinner and entertainment. Not only that it was the wholesome family experience. We are older but enjoyed seeing everyone participating. Will definitely go back.“
“Hey there! I just wanted to share my recent visit to Ethel's Old Corral. My husband and I went there for a late lunch/early dinner after our eye doctor appointment. We had a fantastic time at this charming, old-fashioned, western-style cafe. The moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly by the friendly hostess/waitress who led us to our table. We chose a cozy spot by the window with a great view of the Tall Indian that marks Ethyl's on Alfred Harold Hwy. The waitress handed us the menus and took our drink order right away. Our drinks were served quickly, and we placed our food order with her. I ordered the pastrami sandwich with fries for $15.00, while my husband ordered the deep-pit dinner priced at $15.00 also. While we waited for our food, we enjoyed the pop and country music playing on the jukebox. I couldn't help but notice how the new owners had significantly improved the place, including new floors and overall cleanliness. It was my first time back at Ethel's Old Corral since Ethel herself worked and owned the place. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the fantastic work of the new owner. (Check out the pictures!) Our food was served quickly and was piping hot. I have to say - Ethel's pastrami sandwich was one of the most delicious sandwiches that I've had in a long time! The meat was piled high, and the sandwich was perfectly juicy without being too greasy. And those crinkle-cut French fries were amazing! I don't know what the chef did to them, but they stayed hot throughout our meal. As my husband put it, "These fries are addictive!" I also had a taste of my husband's Deep pit meat, and let me tell you, it was smokey and tender! His dinner came with a roll and a cup of beans with cheese. I was so engrossed in eating my sandwich that I completely forgot to take a picture until I had already eaten half of it. Oops, my bad! Don't worry, I did take some photos of the cafe's interior. It's so charming and clean, you'll love it! Overall, Ethel's Old Corral was the perfect place to stop for a bite to eat. We had a great time, and we're definitely coming back for other meals. I highly recommend it!“
“Large, tall space with a patio, industrial/brewery decor, expanding production facility in next two spaces in the building; about 14 own beers on tap, few guests beers, and few cans, good WiFi, flights of 5 available at a reasonable price, decent beer, excellent burger, few TV screens with ESPN but thankfully without sound so one can have a beer in peace“
“In-N-Out is a West Coast treasure! Their burgers are delicious, made with fresh ingredients and perfectly cooked patties. The fries are crispy and addictive, and their shakes are thick and creamy. Plus, the service is always friendly and efficient. In-N-Out is a must-try for any burger lover!“
“Today was our first time here and we absolutely had a great experience overall. Food was delicious and full of flavor. The service was on point (server was Angelica). I ordered the Pastrami Burger and my wife got the Monterey Chicken Club. Both were very good, and the fries were really good as well (lightly battered and seasoned). We also got the mimosa flight, which was really nice and a good deal for $25. Our server was genuinely nice (not the over the top, fake friendliness), and checked on us regularly. I 100% recommend this locally owned/family owned restaurant.“
“We were greeted by our server Jeanette as soon as we walked in. We were able to seat ourselves. She was right with us and got our drinks. She informed me of what they had that was diet. We started with onion rings since we were having trouble deciding. The onion rings were hand dipped and made to order. I was torn between their chicken avocado sandwich and the avocado burger. Jeanette said they were both good, I told her that I was wanting something light. She said that I would want to go with the chicken avocado sandwich. She said that she pairs it with a side of ranch, so I went with that. I had a salad instead of the fries. The sandwich was so good and fresh. The cook even stopped by the table to ask how the food was. Later, I found out thY he is the owner of the establishment. We had a wonderful conversation. I will definitely be back to visit again. We'll done JoJo!“
“My family and I went out for dinner on a Friday,we tried different items of the menu and it was all so good, the size serving was perfect for sharing, the service was amazing, we felt like we were having dinner at a friend's home. we are going back soon to try more of their delicious options.“

So delicious & fresh & yummy as you can see in the pictures (latest photos). I want to "THANK YOU" for making our night a special one because we was just passing through. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s & ?%+ Great Job! ???“
“The Grill at Brimhall Square is usually brimming with the life of people wanting a decent place to rest and eat and people watch. Watching people walking, gaming, shopping or whatever. Grilling your friends about what's happening in their lives over a bite of grilled cheese on a hamburger and bun. Careful to keep the chatter low. You don't want listening ears from close tables to hear your private conversations, unless you do want them to hear, you know, the good news you can't wait to tell the World. You're feeling much better, like a miracle has happened in your life; You've been healed! "Let's Eat"!!!“
“I saw a Karen talking about this amazing restaurant and how they discriminate against others and had to say that’s insane. I’ve witnessed first hand the equally amazing service and respect their staff provides. As gay couple I haven’t experienced such respect in a Bakersfield restaurant before. It felt like every waiter was checking on our table to ensure we were ok. The prices were great for the large portions and our drinks were made perfect. Saturday night during a rush too and I felt I didn’t wait long for anything. 10/10 food, service and atmosphere.“
“I haven’t visited Hungry Hunter in oh so many years, but my daughter and I visited for lunch. I had the Reuben sandwich and she had the Prime Rib sandwich. We just loved them both! I’m so happy we went and we can’t wait to return! Job well done!!! And our server, Josiah, was a delight!“
“I usually come here and service it’s alright but tonight really made my night our waiter Joseph was the sweetest, most helpful person tonight! He wasn’t just making sure we were okay but that everything exceeded our expectation! Thank you so much Joseph God bless!“
“One Of The Few Places left That is Family Owened and Operated! This Is Bakersfield On a Plate With The Triple Enchiladas Plate Superb Rice and Beans Are Always Taken For Granted But Here I Thought Mama Was Cooking in The Kitchen and The Free Chios And Salsa Were Hot Crunchy and Salsa Mild Flavorful and 2nds are always Welcomed Most Restaurants Now Charge This as Appetizers! My Server Christian Always on Point and His Ice Cold Micheladas Can Compete with the Best of Them! I Am a Menudo Officinado? and Another One of the Reasons I Eat Here Regularly! Hot And Delicious and Just Enough Spice For that Michelada To Help Wash it Down? The Prices are More Than Reasonable and Restaurant Cleaniness is Very Appreciated ? Thank You For a Always Pleasant Experience and What I Call Enjoying Food Vacation! Try it as it Will Become a Favorite and Regular Dining Destination.! Coach PParking: Parking Can Use A Lil Touch Up But Close and Short walkKid-friendliness: Some optionsWheelchair accessibility: Easy Access“
“I love the service here, staff were very nice but the outside was awkward and loud by the cleaning of the vacuum? Chocolate muffin was delicious but the drinks tasted funky, I didn't mind. Great place for studying! Plus, the weather was amazing.“
“Some of the best and most affordable pizza ever. If you have kids, they have tree tables in their own section, away from everyone else. Any of their pizzas are food, and the garlic knots are amazing. My kid will ALWAYS eat their popcorn chicken.“
“Inside looks very nice! My experience was expectacilar, my server Sandra was very heart warming and welcoming with a smile of joy. She helped me make a delicious food choice that I enjoyed very much. I definitely will be coming back & recommending all my friends to go here!“
“We heard a lot of good things about Root Beer King so we thought we'd try it as we were passing through Bakersfield. We were amazed how affordable this place is. The burgers are super fresh and a good size you would think they'd cost a lot more. They do something with spices on the bun which makes it taste unlike any other burger I've had. The employees were super friendly and fast service as well. Stop by here and try it you won't be disappointed.“
“this place is great. they have a big outdoor area for kids to run around and they have lots of games to play. their food is INCREDIBLE especially the mozzarella sticks and the cheeseburger is amazing. I would 110% recomend for a place to go on a Friday night to have a beer and good food. the employees are very nice and friendly. the aroma of this place is nice and not too rowdy and everyone seems to be having a great time. this is my hands down favorite local restaurant.“
“The fast food is great it's a hidden gem! I had a $10 Philly Cheesesteak which was much much better than $22 7 inch crappy overpriced sandwich from pink lunch truck SIZZLIN BUNS on Rosedale food court. I went with my family to carousel and we spent around $32 plus a banana split. Customer service was kind and attentive even though busy. will recommend will go back! Thank you“
“Absolutely delicious, wonderful experience. I haven't been to Spencer's in maybe 10 years, so thrilled to have amazing service, delicious food, and a nice environment. 100% recommend the chicken fried steak, best we've ever had. The biscuits are also my personal favorite. The whipped butter is sublime. Our waitress was lovely. We will be coming back regularly.“
“This is by far the best burger place in town. I’ve never had a cheeseburger so juicy and tasty in my life. I could eat here everyday if I could afford it. Fries are amazing as well!! This place is by far the only burger joint I’ll ever eat at again. Prices are reasonable as well!! Go eat there. You will thank me.“
“Look I have constantly driven passed here but never really thought of stopping til today and I am glad I did..food was great and service was excellent Alexis was so helpful with what to have and I had the chili verde omelette and it was very good it was so filling I didn't even think of food the rest of the day and it was busy but Alexis made sure the coffee cup was full and about the coffee I never had 3 cups anywhere I go and the coffee was so good I had 3 cups..so thank ypu Alexis for your hard work and still smiling I will be back...management please recognize the hard work Alexis puts in.“
“It seems to be a popular restaurant where travelers on a long journey can have a quick meal and rest along the way. On the way from LA to San Francisco, I stopped for a moment to refill my gas tank, eat some food, use the restroom, and replenish my energy before leaving for my next destination.“
“I hired their team for the NV experience which is more of their private events. I didn’t hire their catering side. I celebrated my birthday party at my home and they did such an amazing job! With any elegant plate of food, I'm always concerned if it'll be food leaving me still hungry. Not here. It was a generous amount of deliciously cooked and plated food. They not only left me wowed, but my guests as well. Even the freshly made bread rolls kept my guests wanting more! They worked with me on the menu, did a walk through of my home weeks prior to my event to get the best idea of the flow, brought in a good amount of staff to handle my intimate party of 15 and took care of every single moment from bar tending and passed hors d'oeuvres, to clean up...they created everything I had imagined for my party. And on top of their service, the food was amazing. Not a single hiccup throughout the night. And if there was one in the background, they handled it well because I wouldn't have known. Highly recommend Chef Nate and his team.“
“Props to one of the best servers I’ve had and that’s Wendy! She really took care of my partner and I very well, made a very comfortable atmosphere while serving and just overall a great experience with her! Please tip your waiters and MOST certainly one like Wendy!!!“
“Thank You Rick Mossman, & Mossman’s Catering Service. You & your professional hardworking catering team especially Amanda were exactly as i said in this sentence. “PROFESSIONAL!” I enjoyed working with her to finalize everything for the dinner. Rick has a GEM working for him.People, this man and his staff are by far the most professional, ethical, and caring staff you will ever see! I give this business a5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Rating only because more stars are not available. This company handled my Wedding Day Dinner Menu. The menu consisted of the greatest Tri-Tip & BBQ chicken I’ve ever had. So tender, juicy & Delicious! All my guest raves about the food and service! Served over 145 guest, I paid for 150 and there was PLENTY of extra food after everyone ate dinner. The staff was so professional and helpful. My wife & I loved our meal, and appreciated everything you and your staff did for us. I 100000000000% recommend Mossman’s Catering for your next event. Small or Large, they will exceed your expectations!“
“Had the tri-tip sandwich on their jalapeño bread with a salad instead of fries. I also had their root beer. Everything was delicious! I really liked the bread and the root beer. The meat was very tasty, cooked perfectly. I enjoyed looking at all the CSU, Bakersfield sports memorabilia on the walls.“
“We have been to this Sizzler several times and the food is always great. The salad bar is one of the best I have been to. Always fresh and fully stocked. Today our server was Oscar who was pleasant, attentive, and friendly. 5 stars for Oscar. I spoke to the general manager Lorena to let her know what a great restaurant she was running and great staff she has. We will always stop when in the area.“
