    Coach's Tavern Review After visiting Coach's Tavern 3 times, I feel like I can give a fair and consistent review. Each visit required a reservation, but unfortunately all 3 times we were seated at least 30 minutes after our reservation time. For a restaurant that presents itself as an upscale establishment through its website, décor, and overall atmosphere, I feel like the hospitality and service should match that same level. The staff could definitely benefit from more training when it comes to prompt service and creating that elevated guest experience. As for the food, the prices are definitely on the higher side, so I expected the flavors to match the cost. I will say the head chef has some really creative and exciting ideas for the menu, but the execution and taste could use some improvement to justify the prices. The drinks were actually a highlight--overall they were good! However, some bartenders could be more knowledgeable about the variety of cocktails offered. Their mocktail selection is a nice touch and definitely appreciated. The butter cake is a little tricky--it's a hit or miss. I ordered it every time I visited, and all 3 times it tasted different, so consistency is something they could work on. Overall, I really wanted to love this place because the ambiance is beautiful, but the service and food quality need to catch up to the upscale image they're going for.

    The food was amazing, but the guava piña colada was absolutely delicious! We highly recommend the skirt steak, and the onion rings were incredible. My husband ordered the vodka pasta and absolutely loved it! At first, he thought it needed more cheese, but after trying it, he realized it was perfect just the way it was. My friend ordered the 42 Burger, and it was a little plain it could definitely use a few more toppings. Other than that, everything was packed with flavor! For dessert, we got the butter cake, and it was so yummy! My friends and I loved this place. It was very affordable, the staff was super friendly, and the restaurant was so aesthetic, clean, and welcoming. We can't wait to come back!

    Previous Yelpers kinda' intimidated me with their reviews, but now I am thinking that maybe, just maybe, THAT was their plan because they do not want people from out of town to go here. I drove a little under 2hrs to go to Coach's Tavern and I hope to return again. I genuinely love and respect the atmosphere and the food. The cook was worried about getting whipped cream on the butter cake and that did not bother me or my friend one bit (but more about that later), more importantly, the cook CARED. PARKING There is plenty of parking but the inside spot is spacious so on busy days/nights, I recommend carpool. SERVICE Attentive from the VERY beginning. And it was not annoying, either. I really felt like friends sat us and waited on us. My water cup was kept full and that's an honorable thing for me to mention. DRINKS My friend ordered an Old Fashion and this was the 2nd best one he has had, and he has ordered plenty of Old Fashions in our day. He appreciated the drink and I appreciated the fanciful block ice cube. I, on the non-alcohol hand, ordered a La Isla mocktail: strong hibiscus flavor and I forgot what else, but it was pretty! FOOD To start, we ordered the fried zucchini. It was about 6 deep friend tempura veggie sticks served with ranch dressing. I think this was a great starter. Nothing special, but a good start! THE AMBIANCE and SERVICE We arrived at 12:30pm and left at 3:30pm, not that you should stay that long, and the food was served within good timing, we just enjoyed eating, drinking, and exchanging stories with our waitress. THE FOOD I ordered the Westwood Sunrise (by the way, their burgers are all California sports teams themed) and this was definitely a UCLA burger. It was good, and messy, as a burger should be. But, if you let the burger rest for too long (like I did because I talk too much) the burger patty loses its juice. Still a good thick patty, topped with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, but the best part: sunny side egg, avocado, and bacon. Smash down on the pretzel bun and devour the burger. It looks small, and menu does say it was served in a pretzel bun so a smallef portion is expected if you know what you are ordering. It did take me a while to eat it because I ended up eating the messy burger with my fork. Served with a good cup of fries! My friend ordered the California Steak Sandwhich lunch (drink, fries, and half a sandwhich) special and he enjoyed it. The steak wasn't chewy (he told me he has had steak sandwiches with chewy meat) and well marinated. It was tender meat! This steak sandwhich was served which chopped marinated meat sandwhiched and layed between 3 slices of sourdough bread. Great choice! DESSERTS We had to! It was a Butter Cake topped with slices of strawberry. It is not normally served with whipped cream (so we were told) and the cook was worried (so we were told) and we did not mind. I did NOT want to share my cake so we both had our own. No regrets with one to take home (it was my birthday cake). Overall, I enjoyed the food, drinks, and deserts. I thought the prices were reasonable, honestly. Coach's Tavern looks like a smoke lounge, but I really do think this is classy for sports fans looking for a nice out on the town. I am not a sports fan, but I have an appreciation for its decor, the sports memorabilia, and the women's restroom decor!

    This place is phenomenal. Right when you walk in you enter a gorgeous bar area with trendy tables/ chairs/ couches. The ambiance is upscale with an LA sports vibe. The music playing through the speakers consists of throwback R&B. I was loving the vibe. Samuel was our server and he was fantastic. The happy hour menu is wonderful. The rib eye chicharrones are a must have! They are so flavorful and juicy. The mozzarella sticks were also great, as well as the wings. I asked for them well done and they were cooked to perfection. The broccolini was tasty, as well as the butter cake. I had a few French 75 drinks and my husband had some Guava coladas. A manager (I didnt catch her name but she had red hair) overheard me mention happy hour, and she let us know it was happy hour all day that day because of world cup. I thought that was very nice of her. I strongly suggest making reservations, because this place gets packed. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area. I wish we had something like this in OC.

    I went with a friend mid-week. The restaurant is very nicely designed and decorated. I thought the sports memorabilia and pictures was a nice add to go along with the Coach's theme. It was a cooler day so, didn't go outside but it looked nice for a warmer day. We went about 3:00pm and reservations could only be made at certain times around that time but, we were the only customers dining for about 30 minutes. We were informed that they start dinner at 5:00pm so, the time we chose there was a limited menu (which was ok). Our waiter, his name I believe was Khai (sorry if incorrect) he was the bartender as well. Extremely friendly and attentive! I've heard a lot about the dress code we did follow the dress code posted on their website and at the front entrance on a visible sign. However, everyone else that walked in were extremely casual (one individual had on house shoes), another gentleman had on basketball shorts and casual shoes (these individuals were not in the same group). I say that to say, the rules are conflicting however, I do not mind but a definitive rule would be appreciated. The items are more pricey but, for the ambiance and upscale vibe - it makes sense. It's appreciated for the Antelope Valley to have an option to dine at for those who are looking for something in this area. I will dine here again!

    I had dinner at this restaurant for my 60th Birthday. I read the mixed reviews here first and decided to try it for myself. OMGOSH! I'm so glad I did because we had an amazing experience. First of all, the decor, the ambiance, and overall vibe gets an A+ from me. The hostess greeted me with a warm smile and showed me around, by request, then seated me in the waiting area until my friends arrived. Our server was AWESOME and very attentive to us the entire time. The live music was great. And the food - it was EXCELLENT!!! We all enjoyed everything we ordered and had no complaints. I had the 6 oz filet mignon, Asparagus, and Mushrooms. I was very pleased with the flavor on the filet, and it was still juicy even though I ordered it well. They gave me the butter cake for dessert and it was so delicious. This is an upscale restaurant, so yes, the prices are on the higher end. The meats don't come with side dishes. That's not unusual because there are other upscale restaurants that so the same. Overall, I give Coach's Tavern an A+. I loved everything about it and can't wait to go back. My sisters and I are already planning our next dinner out at Coach's. I'm excited for them to experience it. Our town needs this for people who like this kind of dining and don't mind paying for it. I really pray that they do well and get the community support needed to keep them open.

    Vodka pasta

    This is a great place to go with friends and watch the game , love the decor and vibes it brings. Came on a Monday night and it was pretty slow being we got there at 830 (party of 6) . The service was slow , however, Samuel was friendly and knowledgeable just wish he'd check o in more often. The wings aren't how I remember them but still decent . The vodka pasta could have used more sauce . Everything else ordered was pretty standard. Overall, this is one of the only options open late in the AV so I'd give it another chance .

    First off...MADDY...she went above and beyond as a server! All of her suggestions were FIRE and she is such a delight. Her smile, her knowledge of the menu, her professionalism...yet so personable and someone you want to kick it with! She's so fun! She made our visit one to remember. Once again Coaches didn't disappoint. This time I got the Triple Slider app just for myself! I didn't want to share with my husband this time! He got the Nashville Chicken Sandwich, I got the Skirt Steak and we shared the Mac n Cheese... FLAVOR, ON FLAVOR, ON FLAVOR!!!! We just couldn't at this point My husband looked at me and straight up said " How is everything so freaking amazing?!!" Maddy suggested some drinks as well and they were even better than the last time we went-hats off to the bartender Maddy even let us enjoy a complementary dessert and we ate it in like 2 minutes! My husband said I attacked it like a wild dog! Like what?? But high key that's what it was It was the Butter Cake. Waaaay better than I thought it would be. So warm and crunchy yet soft??! Ok! I see you! Maddy hooked us up straight away all night long and we can't sing enough praises to the staff and the chef. That chef be back there doing the dang thang!! Music...on point. Food...stays fire. Service phenomenal! Favorite place out here...thank you Coaches Dani

    We have been here once before for lunch, so we decided to return for a lovely dinner. Our server Sam took the time to patiently help us with our order, and his friendly personality went a long way for us. We definitely will be returning because this place felt very comfortable, despite being somewhat upscale. In addition, the food and drinks were absolutely delicious.

    Dan M.

    The previous review definitely nailed it, so I'll keep it short. The place looks great, service is decent, but watch your bill. They sneak in extra fees (like a small cup of ketchup) that definitely rack up the bill. I like the fact that they're keeping the prices up to keep the dirt bags that go to Lancaster Coaches out, but $20 a drink is too much. I'd only see myself going here for a small bite and one drink. If you stay longer, the bill is over $100 real quick.

    I had been wanting to try Coach's Tavern for a while, so we decided to celebrate my return to work after maternity leave with a date night. Since I'm no longer breastfeeding, I was also looking forward to enjoying a good cocktail. The first thing that stood out was the décor. I absolutely loved the atmosphere and aesthetics. My Old Fashioned was perfectly made, and my husband enjoyed the Hazy IPA on tap. Despite the prices, I really wanted to give this place a fair chance. We started with the Nashville chicken sliders and garlic Parmesan fries, and they were both delicious. Unfortunately, the disappointment came with my steak. While it was a decent portion, it lacked flavor, and having to pay separately for sides made the meal feel overpriced. I was excited to try the cowboy butter, but they were out of it--and, in fact, they were out of several menu items. I settled for their house steak sauce, but it tasted overwhelmingly like raisins. I know steak sauces often contain raisins, but the flavor was far too overpowering for my taste. Wanting to be fair with my review, we decided to try dessert as well. The butter cake with ice cream was outstanding! My husband isn't much of a dessert person, and even he loved it. One of the biggest pros is that everything is made in-house, even their blue cheese sauce. The biggest con is that some menu items feel overpriced. If steaks no longer come with sides and guests have to pay extra, I expect the steak itself to be perfectly seasoned and prepared. On a positive note, my husband's burger was actually better than my steak. As someone who loves steak and eats it often, I don't mind paying premium prices, but I do expect an exceptional product. The servers were excellent and provided outstanding customer service. Overall, we would come back, but probably just for a couple of drinks, appetizers, or dessert.

    Came on weekday afternoon. Place wasn't crowded when we arrived. The place was located inside the…read moremall. Plenty of mall parking. Place appeared clean. Waitress was friendly. Got the Wells drink, Pineapple, Cranberry Whiskey, for $5 during Wednesdays or $4 during Happy Hour (Sundays through Wednesdays from 6pm to 9pm). The Pineapple, Cranberry Whiskey was very descent for the price and strong. Got another Wells Drink, Cranberry Vodka, for $4 during Happy Hour. The vodka was very powering, but we didn't mind. Also got the 6 pieces Bone In Wings with Fries for $11 on Wednesdays. We chose the Buffalo and Honey Garlic sauces. The Buffalo sauce was better than then Honey Garlic sauce. Would not get again since the wings were flavorless. The fries were hot and crispy, but too salty. Also got the Nachos Supreme for $7 during Happy Hour. We added beef to the nachos for another $3. The nachos were very filling and delicious. It again was on the salty side, but paired well with our drinks. Every day of the week they have a special going on. Would return for their Happy Hours, which were Sundays through Wednesdays from 6pm to 9pm. Their drinks were strong. Would return to try their other Happy Hour drinks. Would get their Nachos Supreme with beef again during their Happy Hour for $7 + $3. Unfortunately, the nachos took over half an hour to get to our table from the time we ordered it. We dined for a couple of hours and only saw one host/waitress/bartender and one server. Our host/waitress/bartender was amazing and always had a smile.

    Bartender lady and management are very sensitive and unfair. I was ordering my drink and the lady…read morebartender gave me the wrong mixture. But this was not the issue. When I asked her to correct it, i couldn't hear her for 2 reasons; the music was really loud and I have hearing problems in my left ear, so I had to talk louder and she thought I was mad at her (which I wasn't) and she complained to her manager. So she told security to kicke me out from the place for ever without asking me for an explanation and listen to my version of the facts. I'm considering to submit a formal complaint to the civil courts and submit a lawsuit for senior abuse. Management and peaple that run a business should be more professional and listen to the client as well before getting a dramatic conclusion of the facts. I believe the name of the bar manager is Vicky, so be careful not to talk loud to her bartenders guys, they get offended very easily.
