Jeffrey Bahr I am a vegetarian and asked our server Natalie if they had other options than the garden burger for vegetarians. I asked if they could do the taco salad her response was ‘ I don’t see why not ‘ . My taco salad was fantastic. The presentation was unbelievable. It looked as though it should be on the cover of a gourmet magazine! In a world with such negatives it was nice to see the welcoming smiling face of Natalie’s .Eddy the cook did a wonderful job with our meal .

Gregg Williams The staff was excellent. Vanessa took my order and escorted me to my seat, giving me the a booth of my choosing even though I was all alone. She was very courteous. I chose the steak and all you can eat shrimp. The steak came just as I had ordered and was tasty. Marisela, my waitress, was also excellent. She brought me whatever I needed, sometimes even before I asked for it. I would certainly return here next time that I’m in town.

Robbie Johnson My Uber driver the night before recommended this place. He was spot on. My coworkers and I travel up and down California for work. We have found some really good tri-tip and we have found some really bad tri-tip. This Tri-Tip sandwich rocks! The salad, just the basic side salad, was enormous. Way too much for me, and Im a fat guy. The drinks were great. (Its hard to screw up tap beer.) Happy that they have Cali Squeeze on tap. Shelby made an amazing jalapeno margarita. And let me give more props to Shelby. She can carry on a great conversation. Even when they were trying to close the bar and clean things up. She was genuinely attentive and we had a great chat. Hell, I may even get a tattoo now. LOL My work has given me more opportunity to be in the Bakersfield area, and this will definitely be one of my new stops!

Cyndi Wheeler We had a wonderful meal and the service is wonderful, and its so nice inside. The food was delicious. We couldnt find anything wrong, we loved every bit of it. We had the steak and shrimp fajitas, and there was plenty to share and take home. We also ordered the guacamole. Their chips and salsa, were delicious, too.

Lee Williams First time I’ve been to Black Angus and I can say I will definitely be back when I’m in town. There was a slight weight because it was dinner time on a Friday night but, that’s to be expected. I had the dinner for one and it was great value, shrimp cocktail, ribeye, and cookie dessert. Service was excellent and didn’t make me feel rushed.

Linda Luong First time eating at the Hungry Hunter Steakhouse. Ive heard of the restaurant, but there arent any where I live. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Seth was very helpful and came back to check up on us often. We ordered the shrimp cocktail, a cup of clam chowder, and a prime rib. Everything was delicious! The prime rib was cooked to a perfect medium rare.

Andrew Garcia Only one of five Cracker Barrels in California and this one did not disappoint. Our waitress Stacey was phenomenal. So friendly to everyone. I was craving both pecans and chocolate chips in my pancakes and they made it happen! So delicious.

AntandShel Jackson Our first time spent at the moo creamery was such a wonderful experience. This gem had excellent service and food. We will definitely return. We had the pork eggs Benedict which they only serve on Saturday and Sunday. My mom said it was one of the best eggs Benedict she’s ever had! My husband had the baked French toast. I could tell by him smacking while he was eating it was delicious. I had a salad they went above and beyond to accommodate me with. I am a cancer patient who eats fruits and veggies only. They have freshly squeezed orange juice as well. That was so yummy!!! Their patio is dog friendly as well. I loved this restaurant!!!

Alvin Carter This place has delicious food. Famous chef Guy Fieri has been here on show Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives. Aka Triple D.

Wendy Gonzalez I had such a great experience at BJ’s Brewhouse thanks to our server, Taylor. From the moment we sat down, Taylor was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel taken care of. Drinks were always refilled, the food came out just the way we ordered, and Taylor checked in at all the right times without ever hovering. You can tell she really enjoys what she does. If you’re dining here, definitely ask for Taylor she’s truly awesome and made our visit so much better. Highly recommend!!!
