Chilling Point Restaurant & Bar - Happy hour Mai Tais - American Near Me - Needles, California

I'm not getting the negative comments after three visits. I'm sure there were some start up issues at first but cut these guys a break - it's Needles, not Phoenix. All of our visits have had friendly service and good food. The mini tacos are interestingly unique and the french dip was tasty. Added bonus is that they offer mashed potatoes and gravy as an upgrade from fries (I hate fries). We have not tried dinner yet but plan to soon. By the way, this place is ultra clean with a full bar. I recommend giving them a try. They also have large private rooms for large parties. read more

It is a nice place for families. People are super nice, and they are very patient and helpful! I will come back with my family. Taco salad is huge. read more

Enjoying a delicious mushroom Swiss burger at The Chilling point, can't decide which is better... this amazing burger or the delightful service provided by "Laughlin" or Christine, not to mention getting to enjoy some ESPN on what I assume is 2000 inch TV. If I had to find a complaint and it was hard to do so it would only be that I had to drive all the way to Needles California to enjoy such a wonderful meal. If you are in the area I highly advise you stop in at the chilling point, where the quality of food is only outshined by the service from the wonderful staff... now do I have room for pie? ?? read more

Wait service is extremely friendly and accommodating. We had both breakfast and dinner here as we stayed in the best Western next-door. Food was prepared in a timely fashion and was extremely high quality at the very reasonable. Would definitely eat here again when visiting Needles, California. read more

Breakfast wS MUCH better than dinner lastnight. Staff even much friendly. Last night asked if I could order off the kids menu due to medical issues Manager said No. This morning we were told we could order off the kids menu. Breakfast was awesome. Ended up just ordering a side salad lastnight Is it a restaurant or sports bar? Kinda confusing. read more

The service was really top notch ... professional yet friendly and attentive ... beer was cold (805 in bottle) and the food (pastrami on rye with fries) was hot ... simple (I had to add some seasoning and mustard) but well executed ... place was very comfy, super Clean and smelled great ... super good vibe ... definitely recommend read more

I called and placed an order for pickup as I was exhausted after a long drive. The lady was super sweet that took my order, I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, super yummy! Meatballs were a very generous portion! Would have stayed inside to eat, looked nice but my hotel room won that battle Overall very friendly and delicious meal! read more

Just ate at the Chillin' Point in Needles. I do not recommend this place. The hush puppies that were so good the last time we were there, are now made fresh the server said but are horrible. They are huge, more like a donut, sweet tasting. The fried shrimp tasted like they were out of a box; the cocktail sauce was chili sauce; the tarter sauce we couldn't decide what it was; they advertise cod on their menu but all you can get is catfish; the salad greens were wilted and old. The server said the clam chowder "was bomb" and she was right. Won't go back. read more

Service was great had the special BBQ ribs they were great. Definitely will return. Their bar is GREAT

Went in with my crew looking for our Friendly great bartender ,with a beautiful smile (Sonia) Instead I countered Cassi, I was shocked when she said she was the manager. TRASH..... She has no customer service skills (except to her phone/watch)...Not attentive to guest Does not have bar knowledge...She spoke alot about herself and drugs..and her sobriety..she was all over the place....who hired her.... We will NOT BE GOING BACK..... read more

We ate here last night 8/5/2023. Food was ok however the service was so bad. We have 2 diabetic patients in our party. It took them forever to serve the other order of the diabetic patient. They serve breakfast all day and one in our party ordered pancakes. That one really took forever as in we were all done eating and they have still have not served the pancakes. Pancakes finally came but no syrup or butter. We asked for both. Waitress came with syrup but no butter but said she will come back for the butter. A good ten minutes after and still no butter. So one from our party got up to get the butter. The waitress finally came with 4 cubes of frozen butter. The waitress was very apologetic and mentioned that she will take off from our tab the two orders that took forever to be served. Our bill came and not only were the 2 orders not taken off but a 20% TIP was added to our bill. I understand we are a party of 7 and that 20% tip will be added but after all the bad service they provided, good customer service would dictate that something differently needed to be done here. No apologies , nothing from the manager about the bad service they provided but was just stern about the 20% tip charge. I do not recommend this place. There are other restaurants in Needles with better food and service. They could be better. read more

This restaurant is closed and no longer open for business!!! It is my understanding that this restaurant was open under two different names prior to Chilling Point with the same owner. Through conversations it is my understanding that service was the major issue. read more

We love staying at Best Westerns Motels/Hotels. Their 'free' breakfast is a wonderful addition - toward our overall experience. The Colorado Inn - Best Western at Needles CA. uses 'Chilling Point Restaurant and Bar' for their 'Free' breakfast offer. Best Western uses this restaurant as their 'free' breakfast option. Chilling Point food has surpassed any breakfast we've had from BW. Do yourself a favor, use this place for any option you will need while traveling. read more

What a nice surprise! Just passing through Needles and booked a room at Best Western next door. Got a 10% discount at this restaurant as a result. I had the .. western bacon cheeseburger (called something else here), and it was sooo good. Wife got the shrimp and chips which was also good. The potato bacon soup was awesome, and the fries particularly crispy & delicious. Everything was great, tho. I nommed my sizable burger in like three minutes. Thinking about coming back for breakfast before hitting the road. We'll be back through this way, and will eat here again. Oh, and also very nice servers working on this Thursday evening. read more

Great service! Food not so much. Very limited generic menu. Food wasn't very tasty. If this place is gonna make it they really need to add some creativity to their menu. read more

Nice atmosphere and seating was good. They had good food although it wasn't that plentiful. Service was helpful and kind. Overall, a nice little restaurant in the middle of a desert surrounded city. Also next door to a hotel and if you are staying there, you get some extra stuff at the restaurant. read more

Great food and great service every time I've eaten here for breakfast and lunch. Super clean inside and I this is my preferred place to eat while passing thru Needles. read more

Stay away. Too much negative all around to speak of. Food weak, two people working for bar and floor. C'mon man listen here's the deal. It hurt just staying here read more

Amazing food amazing staff specially Kylie Needles California is really starting to build up if you want to really really good food work from Orange County you need to come here. Great for great service and huge portions were across the street today. Wagon wheel sucked. !! come have a good meal that's affordable. Everything is 15 bucks cheaper to eat here than Carl's Jr. except food. Excellent shout out to Chris the cook and all the staff that works here they were excellent. The practices were wonderful. Stay at the best Western, Orange County, California, and I am. read more

I came in because I wanted to see if it was as bad as the reviews said. I pass through Needles weekly. Not sure about all the hate. Place is spotless, food was great and staff was friendly. read more

Restaurant is spotless and there is where perfection ends. The first time we went in was just after it opened so was pleasantly surprised by the food. Not so pleasantly surprised by the price or the service - but good food is worth it. Went back tonight, the onion rings and zucchini have changed taste wise (not price) and they suck. The hamburger arrived wrong for my companion, it was a western burger so there's barely anything to mess up. Also it was ladies night so I ordered a Long Island ice tea and it was so awful I left it untouched after the first sip. The service while friendly was completely unprofessional- seriously who kicks open the double doors to the kitchen? Not going to give them a chance for a third strike. read more

The food is great, the wait staff was deadly nice and the music was awesome. We're going back for breakfast tomorrow before we leave town. I'm so glad we found this place, we plan to stop in again on our trip back to California. Hamden in there Chillin' your a great restaurant! read more

AMAZING SERVICE! Rachel is INCREDIBLE. After driving half a day in terrible weather conditions with babies and finally having to stop for rest and piece of mind. She went above and beyond to help me and provided the kindest service with a smile. Highly recommend the restaurant for delicious meals and excellent service. read more

Love the food and Sonia Vicario has a beautiful personality, very respectful, helpful, always smiling, great conversations, beautiful greeter, this is my #1 favorite read more

The staff are very friendly and the food is fresh. Love all you can eat fish on Friday.

We waited to be seated for a while. We had to get our own menus 10 minutes into waiting for someone. As the manager just looked at us grab them. The person that was seated behind us already received there drinks prior to then. 15 minutes later we had to ask that same manager if we can get someone to order our drinks and our food. Since we have a table of hungry kids big and small. The place did look clean. Right after we finally ordered our drinks and meal same time ordered. The people who was seated right after us got there food already. Seems like they forgot about a group of 8. 4 of them being hungry kids. The food then sat for another 10 minutes without anyone grabbing it at the kitchen. Mind you we are now the last person in the restaurant. This place sucks for customer service. They need a manager that maybe cares. They need to work together as a team. The people who came in behind us left before we got our main meal. read more

Chilling Point Restaurant & Bar - Our meal sitting waiting to be brought to our table - American Near Me - Needles, California

We just ate the all you can eat Fish & chips, it says it's Cod but it's Swai. Cod don't have that mushiness. I would go and try something else, but not the fish!! The service was Great! The atmosphere was happy and music was great! read more

We went there for the Friday night fish fry. The waitress was wonderful and so on top of everything that is the only reason that I am giving it for stars. The fish appeared to have a crispy batter on the outside but the inside of the batter was undercooked and very mushy. They offered to give me their other style of fish. I tried it, and it was not much better. They may have good food otherwise, but I would not recommend their fish and chips. read more

Had the all you can fish & chips, loved it! Great service and pet friendly, which will have me coming here more!

We had a delicious and ample breakfast here as we were staying next door and basic breakfast was included. I opted to skip the meat, which perplexed our server. Poached eggs were nicely medium (I'd forgotten to ask for soft). Husband had scrambled with hash browns (yummy) and all the meat. He was happy. They also had rye toast, so "whiskey up" when you order. It looked lively the night before though we'd dined across the street. Of note, Chilling Point has a full bar. If you want a cocktail, this is your go-to. read more

Unexpectedly, found this place and truly enjoyed the food. The staff is friendly, restaurant is clean and food was super tasty and great quality. This will now be part of our stops on Laughlin trips. read more

First visit the food was fantastic but the service was horrible. Second visit the service was great but the food was terrible. Ordered medium rare steak and it was well done and tough as nails. Not sure I will give it another try even though we have a very limited selection here in Needles. read more

Ok...so came back 2 days later on a Tuesday and they closed before 7:30pm. Was talking to another guy that comes through the area often and he stated this was a regular occurrence with this place. You never know if they will be open. I guess when they are its good...but if they aren't open at 7:30pm then our crew won't stop here again...wagon wheel from now on. read more
