After arriving in Bakersfield, we were looking for places closeby to get some dinner. As we were…read morepulling up to the hotel, I thought I saw a sign that said brewery, so looked it up and - yep - there's a brewery right across the street. We walked over and had an enjoyable experience. I would first note, they only had 5 of the brewery's own beers on tap. I didn't mind, as I enjoyed a blood orange witbier. I had the sliders with veggie sticks and they were delicious. I was excited to see something besides just chips offered for sides. The seating space is ample and the night we were there, there was music. I was actually pleasantly surprised the music wasn't super loud and echo-y and we could still enjoy conversation. I would recommend stopping by for a beer and some food!

I came here last night with a group of 18 people while we were visiting Bakersfield, for the drag…read moreraces. When we made the reservation, no one told us that the restaurant operates as a self-service setup. We assumed, like most places that accept large reservations, that there would be some level of table service. Instead, the table was basically just a place for us to sit and eat. If we wanted drinks, we had to go up to the bar ourselves to order them. When it came time to eat, we had to leave the table again and go up to the front counter to place our food orders. No one came to the table to take orders, check on us, or even bring water. We ended up having to get water ourselves as well. What was most frustrating was at the end when I went to pay the bill and was told that an automatic 20% gratuity had been added because we were a large party. I completely understand adding gratuity when a staff is actively serving a large group taking orders, bringing drinks, refilling water, checking on the table, etc. But in this case there was essentially no service provided. Everything from ordering drinks, ordering food, and getting water was self-service. If the restaurant is going to run this way, that's fine but it should be clearly communicated when a large group makes a reservation, and automatic gratuity for "service" that didn't happen doesn't feel appropriate. We come to Bakersfield twice a year and after this experience, I don't think we will ever be back.

We've tried everything we could see from the freeway over that time and never found anything good. We had given up on eating in Bakersfield, other than when Moo Creamery is open. A Yelp search while driving from Paso yielded this option so we decided to try it. We finally found good options and great place to eat. We'll probably try some of the other options in and around this center but it will be tough to not go back to Eureka! every time. The burgers were very, very good and the beer and alcohol selection were top notch. Too bad I had to drive. Our server was the best we've had in years, helpful, casual, fun. I wish I had taken the time to write this sooner after we went so I'd have more details. In short, everything was great, you can't go wrong unless you don't go.

I was pleasantly impressed by how clean everything was even though it was at the end of the night. We came for date night and decided to try one of their speciality pizzas, the hot honey chicken.

My boyfriend got the old fashioned flight, he enjoyed each of them. My espresso martinis were strong and sweet! Can't wait to be back.
