So Classic Burgers has been a regular stop on my road trips up the 395, mostly because there is a…read moreTesla Charger station in the same parking lot. Also because they have clean bathrooms available, and of course, the tasty burgers, fries, onion rings, and other burger joint favorites. The menu is not cheap, but most things are pretty good including the avocado bacon cheeseburger and the onion rings. They also have really good shakes and malts. It's basically a classic old-school burger joint but everything tastes good because not many places make things like that anymore. Service is usually pretty quick. The decor is classic diner and they've got a few interesting things on the walls. Overall a five star roadtrip stop.

Turns out walking over to the counter to order in-person is quicker than waiting for the customer in front of you to finish ordering at the self-order kiosk. - I just wish the cashier was available sooner/more. - lol tried to order online on the drive there to save time, but service out there so spotty. By the time I reached the checkout page on my phone, it said 25min wait, and I had already physically arrived at the restaurant. Quicker to just order in-person lmao. . Decent amount of indoor seating, but quite crowded. It's a desert out there, and this burger joint seems a popular stop. + First restaurant I've seen with a hand-washing sink within the dining area. Neat! + Good restrooms. Well ventilated. Considering we just came from a buncha hikes with poorly-maintained trailhead restrooms, recuperating here was a relief.

Ridgecrest is blessed to have Ale's Seafood: seafood done right! No fishy smell here because the…read moreseafood is top quality and cooked perfectly. If you avoid fried food you need to know that Ale's hand breads their Seafood. This means you can order yours GRILLED! My favorites are grilled catfish and scallops with lemon pepper. Their coleslaw is delicious so I get double and skip the fries. We frequently go to the Central Coast and even there Ale's Seafood in Ridgecrest is often better! The decor is super fun and reggae music is a beach lover's choice. The servers are great here, so friendly and careful to get it your way. Ridgecrest, treat yourself more often at Ale's Crab House and your body will thank you!

Stopping on my way to Anaheim and Ale's came up as one of the highest rated places. It was…read moredefinitely decent. Just gotta drop a star because our waitress was a bit short and irritable, and the food was really nothing crazy amazing. Ended up having the shrimp and lobster fries appetizer which was pretty yummy, the shrimp on it is the best part. Even the kids loved the fries and ended up also splitting a chicken sandwich that was pretty basic, but cooked well and had a tasty bun. Wife and I split a pastrami burger, and gotta say the pastrami was really good, that was a great choice. It had a bunch of creamy cheese sauce on it as well and was gone in seconds. Ambiance was fine, place was really clean, and service was SUPER QUICK. One critique is when we asked for extra plates to split out food, the waitress told us they were out of plates because they used them all on the party that was in there. This was at max a party of 10, and the restaurant had to only have 10 more people in it total. Kinda weird to be out of plates at 20% capacity... she did end up getting us additional "trays" to use. Totally fine, just a bit odd. All in all, if you need some quick grub, stop in here on your way through. Price was pretty fair, 2 burgers, and an appetizer with ice teas for $50. Decent.
