GUYS!!! This place is awesome! I threw my husband the best surprise Boats and Hoes themed party…read moreand this place was the glue that put it all together! We looked relentlessly for a venue for the party, but every place was either too far or had no ambience. I'd seen pictures from a friends event that was held here and quickly called her to find out all the deets. I called the next day, spoke to Brooke, and went to see the place for myself. I. Fell. In. Love. But I had to coax my mother and sister in law into it. They thought it was too small and just would not work for our 150 guests. I had to quickly explain that the venue also included the outdoor patio! And tables and chairs and ice machine and kitchen and premium furniture and...the list goes on and on! Everything was perfect! We were able to fit our 100 guests and had a band! I'm telling you guys if you need a venue with class and ambiance for an affordable price then LOOK NO FURTHER!!!

The staff was friendly and attentive. There is plenty of parking and the grounds are exquisite! The outside area wasn't very big so if you're having a smaller event, then this is the place for you. Maybe somewhere around 100 people or so fits perfectly.

Leaning Oaks Ranch was a perfect venue for my daughter and new son-in-law's wedding! With 150…read moreguests invited, the setting was great for the 100+ attendees. Landscaping in the front area where the ceremony and most bridal party pictures were taken is beautiful. The plants offered greenery and a beautiful array of fall colors for the occasion. We were terrified that we might get rained out, but Barbara (owner, proprietor, sanity savior!) had connections to vendors offering tent options but assured us we would be okay without said tents after scouting the weather and staying in constant contact with us. (She was 100% correct) We then moved from the picturesque ceremony area to the back for the reception. This also did not disappoint. There was a good flow to the venue between the bar, the food serving, the tables for dinner and visiting with guests, to the Gazebo and dance area. It was cozy for guests but never crowded. The staff was attentive and extremely helpful...our guests wanted for nothing. I was pleased and impressed with the professionalism and hospitality at the wedding and reception. Leaning Oaks was completely accommodating and helpful every step of the way. For a wedding, you simply don't want to leave things to chance; the day is just too important. It felt like the staff were ready to meet our every need and offer suggestions when needed. I can honestly say that the guests, family, and the bride/groom were 100% satisfied with Leaning Oaks as a venue and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a local, outdoor, beautiful, and professional venue. We worked with Barbara and Keith to get everything we needed dropped off the day before the event so that set-up was a breeze the day of the wedding! Positive communication was a huge key to this very successful event. My daughter and son-in-law now have amazing memories they can look back on for the rest of their lives and smile. Choosing Leaning Oaks took away much of the stress of planning a large event and an important day! (More pictures will be added as they are received...)

The young lady at the front seemed very frazzled and we soon found out why. The dining area was packed and after we were seated we started noticing the wait staff apologizing to other tables for the delay in food coming out of the kitchen. Management had overbooked the restaurant and understaffed the kitchen. They had a limited menu yet they were struggling to get food out. We were there an hour before our food arrived and tables around us who arrived before us were still waiting for food. Our poor server Elizabeth was great but you could tell she was so stressed. Food was hit and miss Crepes were delicious Over easy eggs were overcooked and the tater tots were not crispy or warm. Legends management /ownership needs to get their act together or they will be closed down before the change of ownership is complete.

One woman asked me if I needed anything, I said I was just looking but personally I thought service could have been more inviting or hospitable.

Karen is a Sommelier, she worked at The Cellar for years and was the Wine Buyer for Cafe Med. The Theme for this Ladies wine tasting event was Red, White & Blue. It was a summer picnic type of atmosphere. Upon checking in we received A glass of Sparkling Blanc de Rose' by Blanc de Bleu. The bubbles were so refreshing on a warm Bakersfield evening. We were served Two still French Rose's, Vin de Provence AIX from Provence and Cape Bleue Rose' by Jean Luv Colombo of France. Next was a Spanish white wine Abarino by Lagan D Cervera. Then going back to South of France to slip into something red with Syrah Grenache by Cote' Mas. We finished with a Red Blend of Monastrel, Cabernet Sauvignon & Syrah by Juan Gil.

This was my first time visiting, and while I haven't tried the regular sit-down dining, my first…read moreimpression was that the place itself is very nice and well kept. The buffet room is on the smaller side, with long tables that seat about 12 people each. Seating felt a bit limited, though I assume there may be an additional room for overflow. The buffet offered a wide variety of options, including seafood, American breakfast and lunch items, and an omelet station, which was a plus. The service was good--someone was always checking on us and attentive throughout our visit. That said, while there were many choices, the food itself was average overall. We paid about $60 for two drinks and the buffet, which felt a bit pricey for the quality, though the variety does help justify it somewhat. Overall, a decent experience with good service and plenty of options, but the food didn't quite stand out enough for the price.
