We drove by Temblor Brewing, somehow we had missed it as we have been on this road many times. It is a real brewery and you can see the big aluminum stills set up. Sadly there was quite a line. I don't know if they take reservations, so check. Parking is easy. The place looks new and is so clean and really comfortable. They had several beers on to tap to check out and a very nice menu. It is all written on a board so you order and have a sit. They had live music which was great and fun. I don't know the schedule so call. Their salads are great and they have a few. They also have burgers and steak and we loved their chicken. The service is great. You will love this place.

A Great Night of Live Music & Support for Young Musicians…read more We came to Temblor Brewery to support my friend's daughter, who was performing with Guitar World, and it turned into such a fun evening. I really love that these young students are given the opportunity to perform live in front of an audience. It's such a valuable experience for them, and you could see how much effort and talent went into each performance. There were quite a few different groups playing throughout the evening, and every group did a wonderful job. It was great to see the students supporting one another and getting the chance to experience what it's like to perform on a real stage. As for Temblor, I know the craft beer scene has changed quite a bit over the years, and it seems like they aren't brewing quite as much of their own beer these days. That said, their mixed drinks are a refreshing alternative. I enjoyed a classic Lemon Drop, which was not only tasty but also served in a beautiful vintage-style champagne glass. Overall, it was a really enjoyable evening, and I especially appreciated Temblor providing a space where these young musicians could get out there, perform live, and share their talent with the community. Supporting opportunities like this makes for a great night out!

The holder to the happy hour menu was really dirty but tables were clean. I ordered the Classic breakfast and loved everything but the potatoes. They were a bit salty so next time I think I'll try the hashbrowns. Eggs were really good and fluffy too. My husband had the Tri Tip breakfast and that was delicious. It was really juicy and tender and didn't need any steak sauce. Definitely will go back as we want to try other menu items and go back for Happy Hour.

They gave me a sample of the lavender iced tea but I wouldn't order it. Outside seating is great if you want to hear the conversation because it is loud and noisy inside, just super busy. The burger I ordered wasn't the same as in the past but they did make it to my liking with only giving me half the cheese, so that was super great. The Ahi poke stack was fresh and very delicious. Fries were seasoned perfectly. This place is has great customer service, because shrimp tacos were go off the menu after a certain time and our meal time was 7ish, so they catered to my friend and made the shrimp tacos. I didn't try the shrimp tacos but was told they were pretty good.

Was very excited about this place, but unfortunately it was pretty disappointing. The inside is…read moresomewhat of an upscale sports bar which was fine, and the people inside were lively including the wait staff. We started with the Korean Beef "Frachos" which were easily the highlight of our entire meal. The spiraled fries were crispy, covered in a delicious sauce, tasty toppings, and the beef was tender and well-seasoned. If you are coming here I would definitely recommend getting these! Unfortunately our excitement, for what we thought would be a great meal, died there. First off, they must be using unfiltered tap water to serve because it was disgusting! I get it, water is free and I've never been one to complain about water, but we were so disgusted by it that we were shocked it was even being served. We ordered two burgers. One was a bbq bacon burger which was not bad, nothing I would go out of my way for, but I wouldn't have complained otherwise. The second burger was the bacon jam burger which was drowning in what seemed more like runny pancake syrup than a bacon jam. It leaked from the burger all over my plate and made the burger inedible. For my side I got the charred green beans, and I guess I should have taken the name at face value because they really meant it. They were completely burnt black throughout which turned to bitter powder as I took my first bite. Easily more char than green bean. The service was fine. Our server was nice, but I think they could sense my displeasure with our meal because we counted 11 table stops to make sure we were okay in the less than 1 hour that we were there.

The day we went was surprisingly busy because of course it was their 20th anniversary celebrations and we had no idea! Even with it being incredibly busy things came out quickly! I got to try a peach slushy margarita thingy (I forget the cute name) and that was delicious and refreshing! All the food was delicious and well made! My husband really enjoyed the burger and commented how much he liked the meat mix. The server was a delight, and all around it was a good choice to stop by!

The restaurant is very clean and decorated pretty well to the theme with lots of large tvs for watching the games no matter where you get seated. There is a decent patio as well. Both of my visits were weekdays so business was pretty slow on the restaurant side but the bar had people. Its a full bar. Service is pretty on top of things and I have felt positive about that both visits with different workers serving us. One thing that initially surprised us was the menu is mostly Mexican food. It wasn't a bad thing, in fact, the Mexican dishes are the best ones on the menu! It was just not really what we expected from the decor and descriptions the first visit. We really enjoyed everything both visits. Great rice and beans consistently. The seasoning is good. Not a big fan of the chips though. If you want a decent bite to eat or a drink while watching the game, this is a really great option!

My husband commented that it made him want to move to Bakersfield which made our server Emily laugh. Limited parking in back and some street parking. We walked in without a reservation at 11:15 on a Friday and were the first customers of the day. Great decor, dim lighting, vintage looking furniture which does not sacrifice comfort for artistry. Our cocktails and meals were spectacular: Botanist Fashioned: 5/5-the brown sugar cinnamon syrup added a spicy bite to each sip which was unexpected and fun. Watermelon Sugar High:4/5-refreshing with watermelon juice freshly made in house and an ice cube with mint frozen in it. Seared cauliflower: 4/5-great appetizer for 2. The crispy chicken sandwich and the Botanist smash burger:5/5-Both had super flavorful pickles and toasted buns which always add a lovely crunch to each bite. If you're ever in Bakersfield and are at least 21, this place is well worth it! We'll hopefully be back someday. Highly recommend!

I'm not really the type of guy to hit casinos and/or bars so I will stick to what I know when it comes to this review. That means I'm sticking to how I feel about the food. I ordered a double cheeseburger (I think it was two 8oz patties) and I added avocado, bacon, and an over easy egg. At first I thought the runny egg would be too messy, but it wasn't bad at all. The meat was so hot and cooked perfectly. It was quality meat too, not too fatty. The bacon was delicious and gave the burger a nice crisp. I loved the cheese. I'm not sure how many slices it had, but it dripped on the side and I had a delicious time picking it off my plate and licking it off my fingers. The avocado needed about one more day to be fully ripe, but it wasn't a problem. The fries were a little too salty. The ketchup saved it though. This burger was definitely restaurant quality, but not for the price. I ended up paying about $22 for it. I guess that's somewhat reasonable for a pound of meat, but I don't feel like it was worth $22. There are times where I'll get a drive in burger for $16, and I'll feel it's worth it! This just didn't feel worth it. I can't really put my finger on it. Regardless, it was delicious. To touch on the atmosphere it's a Friday night and there are quite a bit of people here. I'm guessing this is the spot for the Delano night life crowd. There is a bald black guy telling some semi-funny jokes, the lighting is dim in the bar area, and everyone is socializing. There are also a number of tvs to keep you entertained with some pro sports. (Lakers are playing!) I don't gamble so I can't really give you any tips about the tables. I give the burger about 3 to 4 stars. The atmosphere is not bad and customer service is average. Therefore, 4 stars.
