I've eaten macaroni and cheeses at restaurants that had fancy toppings and truffle... Yet, this one knocked all those out of the park. This macaroni and cheese was perfectly seasoned, cheesy, lightly browned on top and savory. The barbecue pizza was top notch as well, every bite was an explosion of deliciousness. I also appreciated how they had fun questions on their napkin disorders. Service was amazing, the lady running the show was so kind and graceful. They have a lot of indoor seating and outdoor seating, they even have the "cave" where you can watch the game. They have clean restrooms and great vibes. Looking forward to returning!

We had a great pepperoni pizza--loaded with crispy pepperonis and a great combo of cheeses. They use a curled style of pepperoni which is very good and not that common. The dough was the perfect combo of slightly crispy and just the right thickness that we prefer (not too thin or thick). They make their own dough and sauce every day, and use fresh vegetables. The owner waited on us, and he was so friendly and helpful. We told him about our little party, and he explained each pizza to us and which ones were popular with vegetarians, meat eaters, etc. We appreciated the reasonable pricing (way better than the others we tried), too. We'll be using Mt. Mike's for our get-together, and I feel really good that we'll be getting great pizza for our group of friends. I'll report back on the upcoming experience--hopefully as good as our first experience.

Mandi the manager was incredible! She gave great recommendations for amount of pizzas and salads. She said they would open a little early to get our order started so it would be ready for us. They set up the patio and had salads ready on the tables, plates, napkins, forks, and put out water and lemonade for us. The patio was sunny and cute with picnic tables and umbrellas. The pizzas started coming out almost immediately and everyone agreed the pizza was delicious!!! Top notch quality and salads were fresh and yummy. We had a tab for canned sodas so each person could order what soda they wanted. I had some vegetarians, gluten free, and dairy free people in my group. They were all very happy with the food. My gluten free and dairy free folks raved about the gluten free pizza. Said it was the best gluten free and vegan cheese pizza they have ever had. They said the crust was incredible.

They have beer on tap and a full bar for those who wish hard alcohol. The pizza is truly excellent. He ingredients and toppings are plentiful and they make a great thick or thin pizza if you're looking for a fun night, at a restaurant that serves Italian food, that you can bring your kids or just your friends. This is the place to go. The parking is either outback or in front. The front does have stairs that when it snows are a bit slippery. They have a front deck that you can eat lunch or actually think breakfast if you're so inclined. The prices are pretty reasonable . They do take credit cards or cash and there is no service charge for credit cards.

Stopped by and there wasn't too much of a line just a couple people ahead of me, they only make this in one size so you can't get this in a large just FYI. The guy was super nice and didn't try to rush my order but he was still efficient! His name was Steven very courteous and looks like a kind person, everybody's attitude in there was very positive. He was patient to explain things like what kind of sauces there were, and what types of different cheeses, I was able to pick anything I wanted, then there's the veggies section and for those of you that love, pineapple like me, you can pick and choose what you'd like to add on as well! I do have one thing to point out that I didn't like, but it doesn't have anything to do with this location that the company should be aware about. They have a meatball that is called a beef meatball. Just letting you all know that it is not 100% beef, it is a combination of beef and pork. It is my personal preference That I don't eat pork so I'm glad they told me this. There are no breadcrumbs in it for those of you guys that are gluten-free. I do wish that this company would have one beef option or lamb if they can't get beef, even if they had to up charge a dollar or something to get it... anyways the check out process was easy, everybody's fast and efficient, they said that it would be about a seven minutes for our pizzas to get baked :). Thanks guys!

My boyfriend panics and says as we are almost to Gorman what should we do? I immediately went to yelp.com (thank you, yelp) and it read that there is a place called Koehler's Garden & Restaurant in Frazier Park, "take the next turnoff. " And so he did and we drove inland for about 10 minutes through windy roads and came across Koehler's Garden & Restaurant. Whooooooaaaaaa. Where are we? Let's go check it out. We walked into a wood paneled room that had a stage for a band and tables with chairs to eat at. We were greeted by the nicest young man name Joshua. We decided to eat lunch. We were the only ones there at lunch time. We ordered two cheeseburgers, an order of fries and two drinks. The bill came to $32.00 with tax. I think my BF overhead that it was $2.00 of Wednesday. The burger pattie was huge. Best deal in California. Sure it took a while to get served, but we weren't in any rush anyways. It gave us time to get to know the staff. The nicest people ever. One girl said that there has been fires and backups on the Grape Vine almost every other day. Trucks are just driving too fast and brakes are catching on fire. Finally another customer that had just moved to Frazier Park from Texas comes in for lunch too. So, my advice - if you get stuck on Highway 5 before you hit the Grape Vine, there is an escape route to Koehler's Garden & Restaurant in Frazier Park. And yes, we drove through the small towns of Taft and Maricopa to end up at Buttonwillow on H5. The best part of the trip is that we had great burgers and did not sit in traffic.

Go NOW and get a slice…read more Now for the review. I'm a new resident of Ventura and my current quest is to find a bass player for my band, Savassa. (It's new so you won't find it.) On my morning walks I chanced upon a coffee shop/wine and beer bar (interesting business model) called Sips as I walked to the gym and engaged the barista, Destiny, in a lively conversation. She recommended that I talk to Travis, who is the owner of Backbench Pizza citing her belief that he was plugged into the metal/Rock scene here in Ventura. Mental note added. Today, after stopping at Sans Souci (aka "the sewer", "the sewer is my church", etc...) to seek to network in my quest to find a 4/5 string bass master, the most pleasant bartender, Moriah, walked me out of the bar and pointed out that Backbench was "right there". I didn't see it at first, even though I was standing almost right in front of it, but Google said I was on top of it. Luckily I was able to locate it by simply walking in the direction of the soft blue moving triangular projection provided by our corporate overlords. I asked for Travis at the counter, assuring the counter service that he was not in trouble. (side bar: the same woman who was working the counter was someone I had briefly met in Sips and I took note, at the time, that she had an actual physical book, as if to read in public, but I digress). Travis appeared and after establishing rapport, filled me in on various resources that might satisfy my musical needs. I must confess that the operation is stark in terms of design but WHO CARES when you have the best pizza on the west coast? I purchased a fresh slice of pepperoni, mostly out of politeness, but quickly expanded my field of perception to note the books on fermentation and making sourdough lying casually on a shelf behind the register. One does well to notice the details. Suddenly, I had the distinct spiritual sense to recognize that what I was about to eat was going to be worth breaking my rigid "macro-nutrient" diet. I will not describe the taste/texture/quality here. It is one of those things that must be experienced. Truly a masterful pizza executed by someone who has a zeal for all things food, especially pizza. My compliments, sir.

We had to pick up some wine bottles, so we decided to take in the member perks and enjoy our day listening to live music, drinking some great wine, and dining on a few of the delicious foods they provide. The lady and man at the entrance guided us to our table and immediately started the experience. We got to do a total of six tastings and tried out some charcuterie snacks. A few of my favorite wines were the Sahngri-La, Pink Moment Syrah, and the Zinfandel. I enjoyed the crackers and cheese they gave us to pair with our favorite testers. Throughout the event, they brought out some fruit, more wine, and pizza tasters, which were all delicious. I really enjoyed their pizza, so I definitely want to come back to enjoy the restaurant and drink some more refreshing wines.
