The California Burger - First Time Visit…read more First time trying The California Burger and ordered it for pickup. Right off the bat, the staff was friendly, the place was clean, and the prices are very fair, which already puts it in good standing. I ordered the California Burger, which comes loaded with avocado, onions, pickles, shredded lettuce, onion, 2 little half slices of bacon though, tomato, cheese, and their house sauce. Big plus that the avocado was fresh! and they didn't skimp on it (thank you ), and I really liked the shredded lettuce instead of the usual sad leaf situation. The sauce deserves a shoutout too! it's genuinely tasty and ties everything together nicely. Overall, the flavors were pretty good. Now for the honest part: the patty itself was a bit dry, which is kind of a big deal when it's the main event. That said, the generous amount of sauce definitely helped counteract the dryness. And honestly, when you're starving, there's a moment where you just say "whatever" and keep eating--and I did . It wasn't horrible by any means, just not quite on the level of a couple other burger spots I usually go to. The patties are on the thinner side, but that seems to be the norm at most casual burger joints these days. This feels like an easy fix though, cook the patties a little less and this burger would level up fast! Would I swear off this place forever? No. But if I know there's a better burger option open, that's probably where I'll go first. That said, if it's a Sunday, I'm craving a burger, and all my usual spots are closed... yeah, I'd consider coming back. Maybe. Solid spot, good flavors, and a little tweak away from being even better.

When we walked in we were greeted right away and told to sit wherever we wanted. It was pretty empty but got busier as lunch went on. About 8 minutes after we sat down, Karina (our waitress) came over. She was very friendly and brought us some rosemary lemon waters and a complimentary appetizer of butter-toasted sourdough with an onion garlic spread. I enjoyed it a lot and it was definitely a nice little touch. For the first 10 minutes though we were wondering where the menus were until we realized you have to scan the QR code on the little card that sits on the table to look at the menu! Ha, It would've been nice to have that mentioned when we sat down, but once we figured it out, it was easy. The place is pretty chill. Good verity of music playing. Atmosphere felt lively, lots of chatter as background noise, large windows that let in a lot of natural sun light so it feels open and inviting. They also brought out a free sample of their strawberry fresca, which was super fresh and refreshing. Not too sour nor sweet. We both ordered the Western burger with onion rings and sweet potato fries. Also had to get me one of those fresca's and my hubby got a coke. 25 minutes later our food arrived, and man did it look phenomenal! The burgers are stacked high, patties were thick, juicy and cheesy. The buns all glistening, and it was super saucy, just beautiful and well presented. Lol. Fries and onion rings come in cute little baskets and pots too. The beef tasted so clean and buttery! Completely melt-in-your-mouth awesomeness. Very gourmet and high quality. The bacon was perfectly cooked with very little fat and had such a rich, clean flavor and was just really done well. Quality top notch for sure. The onion rings were unlike any I've had before. They weren't super crispy, more soft and tender, but the flavor was so good it didn't even matter. They were huge and the batter was savory and seasoned well. The texture kind of reminded me of a funnel cake, soft with a little crisp.. very different from your typical onion ring. Their chipotle aioli ranch paired perfectly with them too. (My left over onion rings reheated to crispy perfection in the air fryer the next day!) The sweet potato fries were also really good and had sauce drizzled over the top. My husband mentioned it would've been nice to have some extra sauce on the side for dipping, though. Paid about 68 in total with tip. Not bad. Overall, we really enjoyed everything and are looking forward to coming back.

This spot is super clean, cute, and has such a warm, welcoming vibe. There are so many options to choose from, but I went with the turkey sandwich because I'm a girl that likes her turkey!. They were not shy with the turkey (which I love), and the Italian dressing took it to a whole new level! So flavorful and perfectly balanced. I didn't even get a chance to take a picture because it was devoured within minutes! I ended up sharing with my mom and she was wowed as well! I also tried the tiramisu, and it was absolutely out of this world. Honestly, I would've bought every single one if they had any left (I bought the last one, lucky girl!) Safe to say, this is officially my new go-to sandwich spot and the best part is I can have it for lunch literally everyday!

I didn't care to know about any other sandwich other than the Italian sub. I ordered two Italian subs just in case I liked it, along with tiramisu, lemon cake and some potato salad. Italian sub is a 10 out of 10! The desserts are fantastic and the potato salad is unique. I will now claim this as my favorite sandwich spot here in Bakersfield.

This time around, I decided to try out the fish sandwich and my daughter wanted the club sandwich. She absolutely loved her sandwich which is great because as I mentioned...super picky kid. Me on the other hand, not impressed at all with the fish sandwich. First impression was it did look super fresh. The lettuce looked crisp and fresh and the fish was poking out of the sandwich which means good portions. But the fish was a bit dark, suggesting either old or dirty grease or cooked too long? Either way it was bland. I ended up having to douse it with a mixture of tarter, malt vinegar, ketchup and Tabasco sauce. I feel as though since this is a fish restaurant that is from the coast, the fish should be their best dish. But this is twice now that it has failed to impress me.

It's crazy to say that these past few years I have become a fan. I literally used to live around the corner from this one and never came, but looking back I kind of regret passing this place up. I'm not a huge sandwich lover, so when I'm hungry or craving something, sandwich is not my first thought. Matter fact, sandwich is usually never my thought... but that's because sandwiches are not created equally. I can have a sandwich from somewhere else and they are definitely not Jersey Mike's. I can choose a hot sub or a cold sub and still feel equally happy with my choice. I love the app. Most restaurants/food places now have an app and ordering ahead is always a plus if you're on a time limit. There's never a wait time and your food is always done in time. Plus let's not forget the rewards, the rewards are the best thing about ordering. When you accumulate enough points you can get a free sandwich. I like to hold on to my points til I have enough for a giant so I can share it w my husband. If you haven't been to Jersey Mike's then you're definitely missing out. Whether you dine in or not you're gonna love the sandwiches. This particular location is always pretty clean, it stays consecutively busy so you know that the sandwiches have fresh veggies and freshly made meats.

Filled with ricotta & black truffles, I could not get over the savory flavor that had your taste buds running wild. Throw in their brown butter sage sauce with parmigiano reggiano, and you are served a meal worthy of any award. Their bolognese sauce was so delicious and had the right amount of meat and sauce for their pasta dish.

I guess because it's a sports bar restaurant, and it's in Bakersfield. I got the shock of my life. It turned out, this was the best barbecue food I ever had. Not only that, but it's very affordable. I would say a bargain. I didn't have to spend 100+ dollars for 2 persons, like a lot of so called high quality barbecue restaurants. The briskets and ribs were amazing. Delicious, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. Sides were also delicious. The service was good too. You just go up and get your order. It took a little time, but the staff is helpful and friendly. I'll be back here again, the next time I'm in Bakersfield. Maybe I'll visit the Buck Owen's museum. Bakersfield is truly the Texas of California, although I've only been to El Paso, Texas.

I ended up going with the Dr. Laura Sandwich and the raspberry filled cookies, the sandwich was good only I wish there was more meat for the price honestly. It was a pastrami sandwich but I mostly tasted salami. On the other hand do your self a favor and get these cookies they're so soft and fresh, the filling is so good. I'm probably going to be stopping here for a sweet treat often because those cookies are spectacular. Overall I'll come back and try their soups and casserole, they sound appetizing.
