    California Steak Sandwich from lunch menu.
    Melody V.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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 .

    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.

    Lauren was great , highly recommend for date night Drinks was on point steak was butter

    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.

    Armando gave us the best experience ! Knowledgeable and kind . He went above and beyond to make us feel like home. I will be coming back sitting at the bar top looking for my guy best bartender in the AV hands down ! Thanks brother !

    Not only was the food delicious, but our bartender, Ryall, was also incredibly kind, friendly, and respectful, making us fantastic variety of drinks."

    Place is nicely refurbished. The food could use some improvement. No salad on a Friday??

    The butter cake with ice cream was recommended and did not disappoint.

    The food was awesome just like the service. Samuel delivered the best kind of service this area could take note from. The vibe is also a must for this area.

    Great to see a more modern restaurant with a great environment come to Palmdale. The addition to the city amongst many is welcomed. Ambiance is great and lunch menu has good portions. Food was very tasty and worth the visit. Service went smooth and the one draw back is the cocktails that are pricey for the amount. It more for show at this point with no volume or kick. Desserts were also quite tasty and recommend those for a try. Ratings - 3 Price - $$$ Quality - 4 Ambiance - 4 Portions - 4 Cleanliness - 5

    Not worth it meat all burnt. Save your money !Cocktails all taste the same, yuck! The wait to order was insane!

    Baracoa Cuban Restaurant was an amazing discovery when we stopped for a lunch pitstop on our drive…read moreup towards Tehachapi. I can easily see them being a favorite in the Palmdale area. There was plenty of parking in this lot. The entrance is located through their patio, which can be a bit counter intuitive. We came at opening and the restaurant got really busy during our time there. Initially we were looking at the sandwiches because it was lunch time, but then we were going to a wedding that night so we decided to eat something more filling since the ceremony and speeches always delay the eating. All entrees here are served with black beans and rice or congri, and 3 fried plantains. My boyfriend had the Ropa Vieja ($28) with the congri and I had the Lechon Asado ($25) with the rice and beans. Our food came out pretty fast after we ordered. My boyfriend's Ropa Vieja is a Cuban braised beef. The congri is basically a mix of the rice and beans. This dish was super tasty and the shredded beef was so tender with the bell peppers and onions. I can really taste the red wine and tomato sauce in the base. I took a few bites but in general I preferred my dish more, and vis versa he enjoyed his dish more. My lechon asado is a roasted pork that is super super tenderrrrrr. It was so sweet with the grilled onions and it had the perfect amount of fattiness without being over bearing. SO GOOD! Love the plaintains too. I'm glad I got the rice and beans option because I would have gotten too full too quick with the congri. I barely touched my beans and only got through half of my rice. Both dishes came with this super tasty garlic butter sauce that I poured on my rice and made it even tastier. It was so good. One thing I didn't enjoy about the experience was the flies attacking us and our food. Since the door is open and connected to their outdoor space, it leaves the opportunities for flies to come in. We had to play defense with the flies the whole time. The service here is a little slow. Especially when I was trying to get back on the road I wasn't feeling too patient. I waived down multiple staff members too. Also I got hit with an undisclosed 3% surcharge for using my credit card. I only found out after I got the receipt. I would have paid in cash if I knew. *dislike* LOVE LOVE LOVE the food. Might be the best Cuban food I've ever had... and I've been to Florida where there was a lot of Cuban spots. Room for improvement with service, flies prevention, and the disclosure of the credit card fee.

The food quality is spectacular! I always get the Baracoa Cubano sandwich and it never disappoints. The ingredients are fresh and organic with each dish I've ordered. Since I have allergies to ingredients used to preserve frozen food, it's always been so hard finding a restaurant with a menu that doesn't cause me issues--and Baracoa has never compromised with their ingredients! The organic quality of their food is something you'll taste on your first bite. And finally--the service is impeccable and I have yet to see such excellent hospitality at any restaurant I've visited, even in Los Angeles! The waiters are always kind, attentive, and energetic with their behavior and service. It's very easy to tell they love the work they do and it shows in their work ethic. In addition to that, the managers are always making sure we're having an excellent night and have transformed it to a level of service we've never seen! My parents and I went a week ago and talked to Daniel the Manager about how much we missed a Piña Colada from a closed restaurant which would make it in the pineapple itself--and he said if we promised to be there in a week he's make it himself. We came on Friday, and the joy that my family felt was palpable when Daniel came out with the drinks we've wished for years now since that restaurant closed! Honestly, I've never heard of someone caring for their guests so much to do that--truly everyone should visit this establishment and experience true fine dining. I don't think I'll ever eat anywhere else for a special occasion ever again.

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.
