“Went with a few coworkers after a hot day portions were a good size food seemed fresh and a good temperature plenty of shade to sit and a lot of seating waitresses were friendly even though it's not a sit down and order restaurant the lady's keep the place pretty clean and free of trash food came out pretty quick too only complaint would be the parking there's a dirt lot next to it and people just kinda wing it upon arrival so depending how many people come after you it might be difficult to leave definitely coming back again“
“Personally, I love the way Mexicans do seafood. And this little gem of a restaurant is no different. The mariscos are done exactly as they should be, and the fish dishes are wonderful. Most Mexican restaurants bring you tortilla chips with the salsa, but here, they bring you small crispy tortillas that you break apart for dipping. Or, I guess you could put some of your meal on them, and have little mini tostadas. Very nicely done Mexican decor, very colorful, music playing in the background. Usually, when we go, we're the only gringos in the place. I've always felt that, if you go to a Mexican restaurant and it's filled with Mexicans, or a Chinese restaurant that's filled with Chinese people, you're probably going to get a good meal. And this place has never let us down.“
“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.“
“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“
“Delicious catfish, and yummy shrimp. You can taste the love in every bite. Seating is family style with old school picnic tables, but there is plenty of space. The staff were friendly, and food came quick after ordering. I'd definitely go back for their black eyed peas alone“
“Small little restaurant. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but the food was very good. We had the combo fajitas and a side order of ceviche. Came out with warm tortillas that I swear were the best I've ever had. No sour cream or cheese with them, but did get guacamole. Service was very slow. If you are in a hurry or on a lunch break I wouldn't recommend. We say for 20 minutes waiting for our order to be taken. Once it was taken food came out quickly. Took another 15 minutes for us to get the check when done. Worth a visit, just plan to have time to wait.“
“This is my go to place when in Bakersfield. The folks there always do a great job of taking care of me. The shrimp bucket is fantastic. I always add sausage to it and that makes it all the better. The Cajun fries are the best with a little shrimp bucket juice on them.Kid-friendliness: They have great options like fish and chips and chicken strips.“
“One guy was very dull, and made me get my own condiments! Which I'm not upset but they could have told us when we ordered the food! Sorry, for that I just figured let people know about the condiments before they get situated so they are more comfortable in the establishment! Other than that I'm very happy! Thank you!“
“Went with family for late lunch. We had fajitas and they were wonderful. Ordered caldo de res to go for dinner. It was excellent. The service is outstanding and prices are good. Will be back there soon. Also, ordered my granddaughter french fries, they were very good too.“
“We are from the Bay Area, and every time we go through Bakersfield, we make sure to stop by Claw Daddy's! We have been to many restaurants in the Bay Area but can not find the same tastes we so much love that Claw Daddy's seafood boil has!!!! I would 100% recommend this place! Best Cajun boil ever!!!Wheelchair accessibility: They have plenty of room to accommodate wheelchairs and a ramp to go into the facility.“
“Food was pretty good. Really enjoyed the bean dip and pot beans. The best thing about this place hands down is Carol. She was such an amazing person. You felt like you knew her and she took great care of us. I hope this gets back to her. Thank you Carol for your hospitality and your fun interactions. J²“
“Excellent food and excellent service. Manager was walking around to each table to make sure that everything was to our liking and the server checked on us several times to make sure we liked our food and that our cups were full. I had a prime rib and the wife had beer battered shrimp, we both had 2 sides and a salad for 78 dlls.“
“The food here is amazing! Honestly, if you don't go here you missing out. The service is amazing because they will remember everything you say without writing it down. I love the way they have the restaurant decorated, and they also have reservations for large parties. The last time we went there they had a party of 20 inside the restaurant but outside they had like about 40 people having a party of some sort. I recommend this place.“
“Realllly good food, I would definitely come back here again. The octopus was delicious. The shrimp was amazing. I think everything on the menu looked amazing and the place was packed so that's a sign that they're doing things right. If you want mariscos in Bakersfield, this is a very solid spot“
“This is one of my favorite restaurants in Bakersfield. It is my favorite, Italian restaurant, and a perfect place to come for a wonderful dinner. We came on a busy night, with three downtown events happening all at the same time. We were served by Michael, who made sure that our order was rushed, that we had drinks, appetizers, and plenty of pepper when our meal arrived. I ordered the linguine with white clam sauce and my husband had the "one crab leg short of a cioppino" linguine pescadore. The restaurant was sure that our ticket was ready, with plenty of time for us to check out and make our event on time. If you would like great service, and even better food, go here!“
“Hey I was blown away, I've been wanting to stop here for the longest time, and to my surprise it turned out to be one of the best Mexican restaurants in Bakersfield that I've been to so far. Stop by anything you order will be enjoyed hand made tortillas with menudo or goat birria and of course their specialty carnitas with some cold beer. I truly recommend this place, come try it you'll love it.Tell them I sent you, -Ramon OrnelasAnd give Marisol the waitress a good tip, she really works for it, she goes out of her way to please you, you won't be disappointed.“
“This place is hidden in the back of a very large bazaar of Latino shops. When you get to the back,it's really a food court with two stages for live music, and similar. Mariscos is separated out from the others. The physical separation probably has to exist because of Utah's liquor laws. It's also the only place with table service. The menu is in Spanish, and when we had some questions, our server needed to get someone with better English skills. This entire facility is not one that is catering to Anglo's. That said, we never felt out of place, and I assume most likely some of the most straight up Mexican food comes out of here. It's supposed to be the food of Sinaloa, having not been there, I'll take their word for it. Mariscos is all about seafood. They do everything from a whole fried tilapia to ceviche and oysters on the half shell. Most of the people were eating large stemmed glasses of shrimp cocktail ceviche. We went with a dozen oysters of the half shell covered with ceviche and a shrimp on stop. They were pretty over the top. We found that by removing much of the ceviche we could taste the oyster more, and get it all in our mouth in one bite. We also had a tostada plate of shrimp, limes, red onions, avacado, and something else I could not identify. Along with a Mexican beer, it was a nice lunch. The music was fairly loud. There was a lady singing the words to the music. At various periods she would come around for tip. It was worth the $5 I gave her. This is not likely to be on the regular rotation, but I really enjoyed it, and would recommend it to others. Some of the other booths had some good looking options as well.“
“Beach barbecue is the style here. Fabulous fish and chips. My favorite is the petite plate. You get a choice of 2 meats: chicken, tri tip, pulled pork or beef. 2 sides: slaw, beans, rice or corn. The tri tip is very tender, but doesn't come medium rare, only cooked all the way. It's still delicious. The pulled pork is good, but a little too fatty for my taste. The chicken is great and you can get all white meat if you want to pay extra. Food is served quickly so if the place looks busy, don't worry you'll be eating in no time.“
“Primera ves en Mariscos Los Juanes y definitivamente regresariamos mi esposo y yo. Encargamos un coctel de camaron cocido, una taco gorbernador y una seca 7 especial todo estaba riquísimo los camarones estaban cocidos ala perfección los mariscos frescos y ricos y el taco delicioso super recomendado“
“We ordered the charola de ceviche de pescado media and it was good! I placed my order online the day before and just picked it up on the day of. The restaurant was busy the day of, since it was a holiday but I was able to get my food and get out pretty quick.“
“Parking: We got the tacos Cameron o pescado (fried fish tacos), shrimp ceviche and seafood mix ceviche.The fish tacos were solid and the two green and creamy sauces were divine. A hidden gem in Bakersfield. Out of the two ceviche, I really enjoyed the mixed seafood. Everything was cooked perfectly, nothing was over cooked and the flavors were simple but bold. The seafood mix had scallops, octopus and shrimp with cucumbers and tomatoes“
“This is a clean and nice place to sit down and eat. My wife and I had lunch she ordered the tacos de camaron Dorados and they were good, I myself ordered a mixta tornado and the portion was big and ceviche was excellent. Great place and prices are great as well would definitely come back.Parking: Kinda of awkward how parking is situated.“
“The loaded shrimp empanadas were delicious! If they were not dressed up with cabbage, sour cream, and other greens they would otherwise seem dry. I ordered the green aguachiles, but I could not eat the shrimp, unfortunately. They were raw and there was a dark vein running through most of them. Also ordered a side of beans and they were ok (maybe they would have tasted better with cheese). Based on the other reviews, I must try this place again when visiting Bakersfield, because they had some other menu items only found on costal Mexican towns, like the pescado zarandeado. I was advised to order ahead because it takes about 45 minutes to prepare. Service was great, restaurant was clean, they had outdoor seating, and the menu was big.“
“Went 2 nights in a row. First night in the bar area, everything was great.The second night went to the bar area, sat for 15 minutes with zero acknowledgment from any staff and zero service. I left the bar and got a table in the dining room. Service was great and the food was very good. Beer was warmer than it should have been. The restaurant atmosphere is pretty dated and dull.“
“I went after the restaurant closed. So haven't tried the food. Went to the night club hours. The most fun I've had in a while. Celebrated my mom's birthday and mine as well. Really friendly staff. Recommend getting VIP table because it gets packed in there.“
“The food reminded me of my abuelita. I had the Enchiladas Mexicanas. My dad had the chili verde. We both enjoyed our meal. The guacamole abs chips were excellent. Don't come if you are in a rush. They make everything from scratch, so it takes time. I knew the food was gonna taste good. When I asked the waitress what sauce comes on the enchiladas, and she named the specific chile they used. Usually people respond with red sauce or green sauce. Not here!“
“This was our first time visiting Arvin and we decided to try El Chavalon. The entire experience was great. The staff was so kind and attentive. The food was delicious. I had the ceviche de Camaron Cocido and the Habia Sushi. The Horchata was yummy too. I will be back again!“
“The guys at the bar and the waiting staff were prompt and attentive. The food was excellent and was well portioned especially for a late Sunday night. My only reason for 4 stars was how loud the music was in the bar area and the dining area near the bar was.“
“Food is always great here. My favorite are the aguachiles, always spicy and there are enough in your plate to even share the with the wife or kids. Quit paying others rent and come to the lonchera instead, you will not want to go back to any other seafood place.“
