    Heard this place had the best breakfast burritos. Was close by after getting gas at Costco and decided to drop in and give it a try. Got the mixed breakfast burrito with different meats. The burrito was a good size. Gotta say it wasn't bad but it was mostly potato's in my opinion. Could barely taste the meat. The salsa made It a little bit better. Just my opinion.

    One of the best burritos i've ever had. They took care of us like we were locals the second we walked in. Not a single complaint this place was amazing

    I called in 7 breakfast burritos for work and Gus had them ready in no time. I got great customer service and plenty of salsa! Everyone at my work liked the burritos and asked where did I get them at. There are seats inside to enjoy breakfast or lunch. Give Gus Restaurant a try. Pay no attention to the one star review.

    Made a quick stop here after getting gas at Costco to get some food before we continued our trip to Joshua Tree. I love my breakfast burritos and knew I had to try theirs! The diner is uniquely and conveniently placed inside the gas station on the right as soon as you walk in. I got the their most popular one, which was the bacon, ham, and sausage with the option to add gravy in and it was absolutely delicious! It had a ton of shredded hash brown and other key ingredients (meats, egg, and cheese), which was consistent with every bite! Potato lovers like myself will appreciate this! Lol. It was my first time having a breakfast burrito with gravy in it and it worked! The lady who assisted me was super nice and the food came out fast! Definitely planning to come back!

    Breakfast burrito with bacon

    I was craving a simple breakfast burrito, hearty and filling and I got exactly that. I pulled up and was pleased that it was at a gas station. I personally love little mom and pop shops. Breakfast burrito was really good, the bacon was thick cut and kind of reminded me of carnitas in a way! Loved it. I should've added avocado, highly recommend you do it. Also, really good salsas. Loved the green the best! My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy and that was also really good. And I know my biscuits and gravy. For a little hole in the wall spot, this is it! Friendly women took my order, amazing service! Would definitely recommend!

    Bacon breakfast burrito! Really good and big!

    Great bacon burrito! Fresh and tasty, highly recommended! Very big. Definitely would get again when in the area. It's Inside the gas station.

    A family owned restaurant within a gas station has so much to offer. Didn't expect much to start with but got blown away by our breakfast burrito. It was very tasty. Spicy salsa was indeed spicy and great. I wanted a bottle of it. Quick service. Friendly people.

    Tacos and asada burrito
    Kacey K.

    Had a break while getting some car work done in this area and decided to pop in to this little hole in the wall gas station spot. Smelled amazing upon entering. My husband ordered the carne asada burrito and I got the asada tacos and one chili verde taco. The tacos were HUGE but just meat and cheese not a traditional street taco you'd expect, no onion or cilantro and they used shredded cheddar cheese they were okay. My husbands burrito was also huge but not a lot of meat and the salsa is watery and way too spicy for the average person and I like spicy! I think the appeal here is the portion size, probably great place to grab a burrito during a long work day and while the food was okay it wasn't anything great. If I valued quantity over quality this would have been more to my liking but I'd rather have less and better food. The place is clean for what you'd expect and the lady taking our order was polite. The rest of the customers seemed to be people headed to or taking a break from work, probably regulars. I wouldn't go out of my way to go again.

    First visit to this Stacks café because one of the places I was expecting to have breakfast today…read moreonly serves lunch except on Saturday. I'll keep you in the loop. We'll talk about it later anyway Stacks is it. The Grub : We ordered the Hot Honey Chicken & Waffles, which at about $21 is the most expensive item on the menu. That said, it comes with your choice of bacon or sausage and eggs, so considering Bakersfield prices, I actually think it's a pretty good value. The chicken and waffles themselves were very good. My only complaint was that I wish they had gone a little lighter on the hot honey. There was so much poured over the waffle that it became slightly soggy before I really had a chance to taste how crispy the waffle was supposed to be. Even though it was mostly soggy, it was still very tasty. The chicken was probably about two strips cut into thirds, which made it look like there was more chicken than there actually was. It definitely wasn't a huge portion of chicken, but it was enough to fill me up. We also ordered the Chicken Fried Steak, which my friend -- whose brunch I bought that day -- described in his own words as "not very good, but good enough to eat." He said he's had much better chicken fried steak at several other places. The Service ‍ The service was actually good overall. There was just a little confusion when we were first seated. Our waitress originally thought the table we were placed at wasn't her section. There was some miscommunication between her and another employee, and she thought she was seating us at his table when, in reality, it was hers. When we first got to the table, there was still syrup on it -- and unfortunately, that syrup ended up on my shirt. No problem... I do have a washing machine , but I was definitely a little irritated that my fresh 9:30 AM shirt already needed a cleaning before brunch even got started. Other than that, the service was good. The waitresses and waiter we encountered all seemed to know what they were doing and were good at their jobs. Overall. 3 out of 5 stars. Despite the syrup adding an unexpected flavor to my shirt and a couple of little issues, the Hot Honey Chicken & Waffles were absolutely good enough to make me want to come back. This was my first visit to Stacks Café, and I'm hoping for an even better experience next time -- maybe with a little less honey on the waffle and a little less syrup on my table.

The second was almond butter and banana with cocoa nibs, honey, and cinnamon. The third was Nutella and hazelnuts topped with strawberries and coconut flakes. They were all delicious, but my favorite was definitely the Nutella and hazelnut toast. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and the variety made it fun to share and try different combinations. Service was quick and friendly. The ambiance is a cute cafe vibe. You place order at the counter and someone brings your order to your table. Smitten is definitely a must-visit spot when downtown for breakfast.

    SMITTENS STAPLE IS THEIR ABILITY TO MISS THE FLAVOR IN EVER SINGLE DISH…read more Update: coming back after some palate development... smitten is one of the most tasteless restaurants in town. Their hype was definitely due to the 'aesthetic'. Nothing is really outstanding to me. The drinks are such a let down, the coffee is borderline yuck.. do not recommend. Everything is quite unmemorable. Service is whatever, sometimes mid, sometimes bad. Nothing outstanding. Ambiance.... well... this one has been replicated one too many times. The food is heavily missing flavor,the hummus is disgusting. I can't believe they call that thing hummus, it's an insult to actual dish.. it's almost like it was trying to imitate the real dish, but failed terribly in even attempting to. Their pizza tasted like play-doh and looked very pale. Smitten is at least consistent with one thing, which is their staple: no flavor. One of the breaking points for me was being served food that had someone's HAIR. The restaurant is very expensive for the poor experience they have to offer. I stopped recommending them a long time ago.

It took a while to be approached by the staff and then luckily seated quickly because a table was miraculously open. But after that we rarely saw our waitress. Long waits in between ordering, receiving food, receiving check etc It was decorated lightly for Harry Potter over its regular decor which was confusing, but the waitress said the owner loved Harry Potter and it was his birthday. Can't argue with that, pop off dude. The food itself was good. I had a latte and a breakfast burrito with chile verde and fruit pancakes. The chile verde was the best part of the meal. Everything else was pretty average and typical for breakfast food. I did like their extensive menu and Mexican American flavors, it was a fun touch.
