Have the soup dumplings! Yes, everything else is great, but have those dumplings. It is a small place, but clean and bright. It is not fancy but with food like this you can take a fancy set of silverware and stuff it :) I will say, that the variety is better if you like spicy. The staff are friendly and nice. Our service was a bit slow the second time we went, but we were ordering a lot for a party of seven and they were quite busy, so I personally wouldn't hold that against them. read more

I dined on a Tuesday around 1pm. Restaurant was packed. Staff is extremely friendly. I ordered the tooth pick beef entree with steamed rice and a Diet Coke. Food arrived within 10 minutes. The beef entree was deliciously flavored however there are way too many chopped up (hard) red peppers and oil. I separated all the chopped up red peppers and only ate the beef. The dish is rather heavy bc of the oil it's cooked it. It's definitely a dish you want to eat with lots of fresh vegetables. I will return to the other items. Dim sum looks great! Support local businesses, esp with they provide great customer service and food! read more

As soon as you walk in you have a lovely waitress greeting you and welcoming you in. She was the cherry on top of dinning experience, she was extremely sweet and patient while we looked over our menus. The restaurant was very cute and I appreciated the murals and the background music. I had really high expectations as I have ate their food from farmers market. However, I was disappointed. We ordered the potstickers and pork soup dumplings and that was average. We also ordered the steamed bbq buns and they were lacking stuffing, so just okay. The crispy tripas were okay but the sauce tasted too much like candy and I felt the flavors contradicted okay. We have tried their food before and it was delicious but this time we were not impressed. We will try again in the future. read more

Sweet Melissa was our server this evening. What a delightful personality, she made our dining experience so pleasant. We ordered the pork soup dumplings. They were just okay compared to when I had them from their food truck. Not as much 'soup' and they were a little dry although the flavor was good. I especially appreciate the flavors of the pork filling. The BBQ Pork Buns were light, fluffy and sweetly delicious. Unfortunately the Lamb skewers were tough, gristly and dry, although the flavor was good. Your condiments of hot chili oil, vinegar, dipping sauce & soy sauce are in a convenient caddy on the table. The pricing is very reasonable. Small, casual and unassuming but they have some beautiful murals in the walls. Romantic Asian music in the background. Because they do have many good reviews I will give them another try in hopes that this evenings meal was a one off. read more

Was really excited to try them and it did not disappoint. They were busy for lunch when we got there but were able to be seated right away. The staff was friendly and even though it was busy we were able to order promptly. Everything we had was really good. Started off with the green beans and they had the perfect combo of crispy bites and spice, will order again. Same for the crispy lamb, although I did feel the flavor profile was similar for the two. The pork buns were exactly what I was looking for on a rainy day, fluffy outside and juicy inside. Only downside (as others have noted) they ran out of egg tarts so we could not order. Will definitely come back. read more

This would normally be 5 stars, based off flavor and service. I'm doing 4 because they run out of ingredients quite a bit. It's a very limited menu to begin with, then when your options are limited again by what they've run out of.. you get my drift. However, what I have eaten there has been amazing. So many punches of flavor! The Soup Dumplings are worth a visit. The Toothpick Beef (also available with lamb) is honestly craveable! I would go back again and again. read more

The restaurant feels small and cozy. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. My wife and I shared BBQ pork buns, soup dumplings, green beans with pork, stick rice with chicken, and spicy toothpick lamb. It was excellent. The bao buns and soup dumplings were classic and just what you would expect. The green beans with ground pork had the perfect texture and seasoning. Our favorite dish was the lamb. It was served as perfect little bite sized pieces and the flavors were amazing with just the right amount of spice. We loved this place and will be back soon! There are several other menu items I can't wait to try. read more

This spot is so unassuming from the outside. It is spacious, clean, organized and simply gorgeous inside. The service is phenomenal. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted warmly and were eventually seated and handed the menu. The person who took our order was very patient with us in answering our questions as this was our first time here. We had the following: Pork Buns - the bun is pillowy soft and the filling is deliciously moist and perfectly proportioned Shrimp Dumplings - the filling (shrimp) was generous and perfectly moist from the steam Shu Mai - this was so deliciously chunky Beef with rice - this was so good! The beef was tender, the sauce perfectly complemented the meat and the cilantro. Every bite was an explosion of flavors. Highly recommend this place. Would be back to try other items on their menu! read more

Jun BBQ how I love you!!! Wow what a discovery! I guess i've been living under a rock lately Lol...Well that's kinda true life's not been great the last 2 years for me but I always come out stronger. And I have ;) And wow this place has literally exceeded my expectations! I heard homemade dumplings, noodles etc and thought ok I have to try this! I struggle to find authentic chinese here in Bakersfield. I want as authentic as possible and not an overwhelming americanized twin of it. The owners father is the original head chef of Great Castle here. The staff here is so sweet, polite and professional. They make you feel welcomed and at home no matter if you do takeout or dine in. Plenty of parking as well so don't worry about it being downtown it's easy to get to. Large dining area and a nice takeout area as well. So my son and I ordered takeout and as usual we order quite a few things when we are new to a place. I mean who doesn't? We must try a plethora of deliciousness right? Lol....To start we got the soup dumplings OMG!!! Bite it, suck that divine soup and devour that succulent sexy dumpling!!!! Literally the best thing i've popped in my mouth in a very long time! Just perfection!!! They give you dipping sauce but my god it doesn't need it! No I am not over exaggerating and if anyone says different they are truly a damn karen LOL! Next is potstickers....Again juicy, succulent incredibly flavourful! I will say i'm not a fan of potstickers but geez they made me love them! How the hell is that possible haha! Next item of deliciousness is Spicy green beans with minced pork...Wholly hell i've died and gone to green beans heaven! Lame of me yes but I cannot stress enough how INSANE these are!! Let's put it this way I could eat this every dam day and never get sick of it! And paired with their perfectly steamed jasmine rice it put me over the edge Lol!! Moaning even! That's how incredible this dish is! You can see it in my photos please don't skip this! I literally scooped this over my rice and didn't look up for a while haha!! Next up...Toothpick beef I was like hmmm what in the world is this. My son and I are adventurous and we really wanted to try the phoenix claws aka chicken feet but decided to do the beef this time and the phoenix claws next time! Tender, massively flavourful morsels of beef grilled and don't even ask what this is seasoned with I have no clue. But what I can tell you is it's nothing like i've ever had before and it's addicting AF! I dare you to stop yourself Lol! You won't be able to. Lastly the Spicy beef noodle soup...Wow! So initially when I went to pour the broth over the noods (they come separate for obvious reasons for takeout) I didn't see the beef but trust me it's bathing in that incredible broth!! Don't be counting calories here Lol that's just dumb! It's got a layer of chili oil on top don't pour it off!! Add it all to your bowl trust me you need it to cling to those handmade noodles! The beef is soooo tender and divine! Slurp it all up baby loudly! So satisfying especially to me. I've been in such neck and back pain these last few days and this meal saved me!! Literally everything was the big hug I desperately needed :) I highly recommend Jun BBQ like now! Oh I will most definitely be back there's more for me to try and love! I have really nothing critical of them except they forgot the cilantro for the soup Lol but my god I didn't even care! This place serves love, comfort and deliciousness period! read more

I first tried Jun BBQ at the farmers market and was excited to hear they finally opened a physical location -- and I'm so glad they did. The sit-down experience is completely different (in the best way possible). We ordered the soup dumplings, pork green beans, and potstickers, and every dish was extremely tasty and well made. Even though there isn't a lot of seating, it is absolutely worth the wait if you need to hold out for a table. The portions are very generous -- easily enough for up to three people. The two of us had plenty left over to take home. I've been wanting to come back ever since we left. Highly recommend! read more

Doesn't stop getting better. Jun BBQ is definitely in the top 5 restaurants in Bakersfield. Unique and there's no other restaurant like it in at least a 50 mile radius. The menu just keeps getting bigger and bigger. The amount of flavor in these dishes are just so overwhelming, each bite is a slap in the face. From the potstickers, toothpick lamb, Szechuan chicken, everything is an experience like no other. I've been to dimsum places in CA and outside the US that don't have this kind of flavor. Can't recommend Jun BBQ enough. read more

We went in for lunch on Monday and we got right in. They do take reservations by the way. The inside is very clean and set up nicely. The staff is super friendly. We got drinks right away and once we ordered it didn't take long to get our food out. Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing. My boys loved the soup dumplings and honey walnut shrimp and my mom and I loved the spicy green beans and potstickers. I can't wait to come back and try another special read more

We had such a great experience at Jun BBQ! The restaurant itself is very cozy, clean, and comfortable, with the cutest plates, logo, and dishware--it all adds to the charm. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, constantly checking in and keeping our drinks full, which made us feel really well taken care of. We tried several dishes and loved everything. The garlic green beans were delicious and full of flavor. We also had the soup buns and pork buns, and the BBQ pork buns were hands down my favorite--so good. For dessert, we tried both the egg tarts and the egg buns. They were unique, fun, and comforting, with a warm, sweet, eggy custard that was really satisfying. It was just the two of us, and we ended up with so much food--great quality and generous portions for the price. Everything felt worth it. I'll definitely be back because there are still so many things on the menu I want to try. Highly recommend! read more

Came in tonight around 7 pm and truly enjoyed my experience! We ordered the spicy green beans, the soup dumplings, & 2 special items. Everything was full of flavor! Everything came out hot & was obviously freshly made. Delicious! I'm also picky about my soda and the soda was nicely carbonated but they offer a variety of drinks like tea with boba, lemonade, etc. The restaurant was very busy but the staff did an amazing job at being attentive and quickly served everyone. I have to say, big applause to the staff! They were ALL working their butt off!! Every one here is good worker. Will come here again! read more

Came here during a road trip and they didn't disappoint. I was craving Chinese food and found this place through yelp. Came by and ordered pork intestine, lamb and rice skewer, and potstickers. Everything tasted so good and definitely fulfilled my cravings. The staff was great with the descriptions and recommendations she offered and the food came out fast. What's even better is the prices because they are definitely a bang for buck. The place was warm and inviting and had some nice instrumental music playing in the background. Great place fore Chinese food! read more

We received a recommendation to check out Jun bbq. We ordered the soup dumplings and toothpick beef with rice. The soup dumplings were great - as many others have pointed out. The beef was also good - it tasted like there was some kind of curry seasoning on it, which was unique but good. The place was buzzing and continually had new customers coming in. read more

Jun BBQ is one of those spots you end up going back to way more than you planned. The BBQ buns are legit--soft, slightly sweet, and packed with flavor. Same with the potstickers...crispy on the bottom, juicy inside, exactly how they should be. The green beans are a sleeper hit--simple but done right, with just enough kick. What really keeps it interesting are the daily specials. The honey walnut shrimp is easily one of the best around--perfect balance of sweet and crispy without being heavy. Overall, it just feels like a place that knows what it's doing. Good food, consistent, and worth having in the regular rotation. read more

I never had a chance to go to the farmers market but I sure got excited when I saw on TikTok that they had a small restaurant and of course I had to take the family. The food is delicious. I was surprised that my eight and seven-year-old really enjoyed the food and they have the opportunity to explore a different cultures. The staff is wonderful , and even though the restaurant is very small, they had a lot of takeout orders and not once did I see an upset face on the stuff. read more

It is about time. We lost the last dim sum place years ago, now we have a legitimate dim sum spot again! We dinned in. at 12:30. The place was hopping. It is on the corner, a ma and pa vibe, but filled with happy customers. The young lady working cash register and table was a trooper, polite through all this chaos. In a rare exception, I will discuss each dish in detail. 1. The Spicy Beef noodle soup. It is thick, flavorful noodle, in a rich beef broth, slightly spicy, with the beef cooked for hours and melting in your mouth. An absolute winner. 2. Shrimp dumplings, well seasoned shrimp, in a light, translucent wrapping, a true classic. 3. Shui Mai, open face dumpling with pork, you can taste the pork, fat, and salt. Amazing. 5. Soup bun/soup dumplings, a juice dumpling that squirts with soup, as good as DTF. 6. Steamed spare ribs, spare ribs, with black beans, with a surprisingly generous amount of tarot. Loved every bite. 7. Chicken feet, if you know, you know. It is perfect. 8. Grilled beef skewer, tiny, juicy, super flavorful bits of beef, smothered with dry rub northwestern Chinese style, with strong middle eastern influence. 9. Egg custard, creamy, with fluffy crust, old school and delightful. We already made plan to go back this week. and the week after that. You definite need to try this place. read more

My friend and I only got the pork dumplings to snack on and they were pretty good! Weren't too hot to eat or cold either! Their chili oil and dumpling sauce were perfect. The server was super sweet and so happy it rubbed off on me and made my day, she was so cute I wish the best for her. Hoping to come back one day to try some more food on the menu read more

great service, they accommodated a table for 9 near closing time. Great tasting food. can't wait to go back.

This small ( and I mean small just 4 tables) is serving up some wonderful Chinese dim sum classics. Chicken feet, dumplings, shu mai, and more. We had the soup -the beef tasted like it had been simmering all day. Soup dumplings had lost there soup but the filling was moist and favorably seasoned. The lamb was a star cooked perfectly and I mean per-fe-ct-ly with a dusting of some wonderful seasoning salt with a kiss of sweetness. Chicken feet were ok (i have had better). I will be coming back soon to try and few others. The place is small the parking is hit or miss but staff were fast and efficient. They do To go and looked like half of their business takes it away. No alcohol. read more

The restaurant is fairly small but we were seated right away and they actually moved us to a better booth once someone left, which we really appreciated . The restaurant is very nicely decorated & plays really nice music while you eat , adding to the experience . Our favorite dish was the minced pork green beans (we ordered mild). The sauce from the green beans paired reaaally well with the dim sum dumplings , we tried the chicken & pork . The pork dim sum was best in my opinion . The potstickers were not our favorite , but I do think ordered too much for two . We will definitely go again! The menu is fairly small but I would so go again & try more read more
