They are building one again on…read morethe east side and I'm not sure if it's gonna be called East Hills Mall again but until then we have Valley Plaza mall. We did all our school shopping here and we're extremely successful. So many of the stores had amazing sales. It seemed like everyone who worked there was in a good mood as well. Between the stores there was a huge selection and we were able to find everything we needed. With the sale prices, it worked out very inexpensive. I did go a little bit overboard at Pink, but my Beloved is worth it.

Got fried rice, veggies, and teriyaki beef. Just solid overall, no frills well balanced meal. Ordering extra is worth it too. Can ask for more teriyaki sauce and just have at all that flavor. It took a while for it to get to me but I wouldn't say there's any reduction in quality. Solid choice if you're just going around the mall and you're willing to combat a bit to get food.

Have you ever wanted a burger but your favorite burger place is in another city?…read more So you scour the city going to and fro looking for any kind of close second and though you find some good spots nothing really comes close?  This was me until they brought 5 Guys to Bakersfield. A true testament of their greatness is that their demand is so great that they went from 1 location to 3 locations in less than a year.  Thats alot of patties!  Speaking of patties let me give you a breakdown of the menu. They have their regular burgers which are really double burgers and then they have their "little" burgers which are single patties.  Getting just 1 of their regular patties is enough for an adult but if you're like me you still get two just in case you get hungry later. They have a great assortment of toppings with both regular toppings (pickles, mustard, ketchup) and some... other toppings (if you like your burgers with relish, hot sauce and A1 all at the same time theres no judgement here. Just dont order for me.) The other attraction here is their amazingly delicious they gave me way too much cups of fries. I was a little upset at how much the fries cost but then saw HOW MANY FRIES I HAD. I didnt count but it had to be 236 and a half.  All jokes aside, this is a great place that you cant really go wrong at. Their assortment of toppings, patties, drinks and their generous fry giving is a win for the whole family.  So if you love it so much why arent you giving the 5 guys 5 stars? Well its pricey... really pricey. Like REALLY pricey. You can easily spend 50 dollars for burgers if you arent careful. Even with that, 5 guys is a must have and I'm so glad our city finally has one. Happy Eating!

I know, I know, what the heck am I doing eating hot soup in the middle of a Kern County summer, you ask? Well, I'm obviously crazy and am a bit of a glutton for punishment... Also, the ramen here is worth it! I asked for the ramen spicy and the kitchen certainly did not disappoint, I liked how the added spiciness paired up with the wonderful, porky richness of the broth, I even got an extra tub of chili oil crisp! The sliced pork was very tender and delicious and paired well the bamboo shoots and bean sprouts, the scallions on top were also delicious! The only thing that would have made my ramen bowl perfect was the boiled egg or (ajitsuke tamago) I was sorely missing it in my bowl. The restaurant was very clean and inviting and the service staff were very upbeat and helpful. I'll definitely be back and (hopefully) get my boiled egg next time!

The bright anime art and neon signs really brings the place up to the current trend. I was glad to see the same sweet, kind waitress working here. This is definitely a ma and pa shop, one waitress, one chef. I had the tempura shrimp recommended by the waitress, nice and crunchy. I had the tonkotsu ramen as usual. It is as good as I remembered. Please give this place a try, and thank me later.

And they often charge different prices on the same item depending on who is as the register. BUT! All of that I can overlook in a pinch, but charging for items that I did not purchase is either a cashier scam or not paying attention.

After reading the comments here and seeing that others have experienced it too, I realize that there is something going on and I need to speak up. Be vigilant at the register if you have to go there.
