    BAKO BURGER
    Angelina G.

    Best burgers in town!!!! I don't use best lightly I truly mean it their burgers are the best! I recommend the bako burger! Also they make amazing mixed drinks. 10/10 spot!

    Went here for dessert after a hearty Italian dinner on a Friday night. It looked full but we were immediately seated. Interior is visually aesthetically pleasing - even their downstairs bathroom mirror, don't miss out! And of course their milkshake, can't really go wrong with your $10. It was filling, delicious and costs roughly same as two hot fudge sundaes! Service was likewise exceptional. Will surely be back and to try to eat something from their house specialties and of course have dessert again afterwards!

    Ordered the Grilled cheese and tomato soup lunch special ! Amazing ! Service was fast and friendly ! And the music was low but just right the homey feel to a great quick lunch spot. Loved the environment service and food !

    Food was ok and drinks were great. Happy hour prices were reasonable. I was expecting the interior to feel more like a sophisticated bar, but it gives more of a front porch lunch vibe with the faux wicker furniture and bright colors. Overall a good visit and we'll be back!

    The Brussel sprouts are my absolute favorite, but everything is really good!! We live 2.5 hrs north so every time we go through Bakersfield we have to stop. The kids are big fans of the burgers and milkshakes

    Birthday Cake

    Food, cocktails, coffee, decor and vibes- what more could you ask for? There's something for everyone and located downtown. I haven't had a meal I haven't enjoyed. Great iced latte. Big place for birthday lunches because of their amazing milkshakes. Staff are always friendly. Inside has a few seating areas, it's bright, clean and great decor.

    Bako burger and fries
    Cyndi W.

    Had a really nice lunch there today with my grandson and ordered him the birthday shake for his birthday. I had the lunch special tomato soup with your choice of sandwich and the sandwich I chose was the ultimate grilled cheese. My grandson ordered the bako burger and fries. Everything was delicious, the tomato soup was out of this world, and I loved dipping my sandwich in it. There was a little bit of a wait today because they were super busy but the servers were great. I love how it looks inside and the seating is super comfortable.

    The chalky, slightly bitter, subtly sweet, but well presented matcha with steamed milk.

    The place is mostly built on aesthetics. I actually enjoyed the specialty item I got, the wild caught salmon but the rest of the table got Bako Burgers and Tacos. After that, ordered milkshakes. I was the only one who enjoyed my food I ordered that night, and after that I ordered a matcha hot drink that was pretty ok tasting in terms of matcha quality, because of being chalky, but it had great presentation. My wild caught salmon was most likely the best item out of everything the table ordered. The crispy, well seasoned salmon sat upon a mound of mashed potatoes, which had subtle flavor, not overseasoned or completely tasteless. The mashed potatoes had sautéed green beans resting on top, cooked well, and were probably the first time I've ever enjoyed green beans . The lemon-zest butter had been poured all over the plate, drizzled on top of the food, which had a rich, and zesty flavor with the appropriate amount of sour. The others didn't enjoy their burgers, they were just good. Good as a burger can be, not anything really spectacular, and not worth the money we spent. Fries were ordered on the side, came out to us cold and pretty average fries that could be beaten by a McDonalds fry. The kid ordered spaghetti which was also just not good, you can make the same tiny bowl of spaghetti at home for cheaper and better taste. The tacos were out of place too, and expectedly bad for a fancy "fufu food" place. Moving onto the milkshakes, the milkshakes were quite literally ALL presentation. We got the mocha and fruity pebbles one. The mocha milkshake tasted like regular vanilla ice cream with Hersheys chocolate syrup mixed in, and the fruity pebbles milkshake had a stale piece of a fruity pebbles bar thats taste hadn't altogether chalked up to how it was presented. The only thing special about the Mocha milkshake was the brownies on them, which were good but not great. On the service, the waiters were nice, and the servers were kind. In summary, the food is basically just good, but not spectacular, especially the burgers which is kind of what theyre known for. The price is not equivalent to the taste for sure. The desserts were ok; the milkshakes were pretty much all show.

    PASTRAMI BURGER
    Alejandro B.

    The 1800 constantly delivers great quality and service. The food is fantastic, this go around we tried the pastrami burger and a spicy Jack burger, with a side of chili cheese fries.

    Unicorn shake
    Andrew I.

    The food is fantastic. If I were rating the food, I'd give them 6 stars! My wife and I had salads. She had Cobb and I had autumn with grilled chicken. Great combinations and amounts of ingredients, enough dressing but not too much (I LIKE my salad dressing too!) and fresh all day. My son had the mushroom burger - again, wonderful toppings, juicy burger, mouthwatering. He also ordered a unicorn shake (pictured) which is the most outrageous milkshake I've ever seen. He also ordered onion rings which I may have helped him with. Haha. Excellent. After waiting 20 minutes prior to being recognized by a host figure, had there been any other nice restaurant downtown open on a late Sunday afternoon, we would have tried it. We ran into a group of friends so their party of six grew to a party of nine. We did say that if it would expedite things, we could be seated as six and three. After waiting for at least a half hour they seated all 9 of us on the patio and as we were about to be seated, they announced their tip policy of 20% for any party over 8. The servers were friendly but ... (1) they brought out water for us. Within five minutes I'd refilled my small water glass twice and consumed the ice. There was no refill on ice offered even tho servers passed my table several times. (2) They asked about separate checks at first. There was an order of onion rings on our bill and a bill at the other table (yes we were at separate tables because they're bolted down outside). They brought out both orders but only ONE small plate of condiments. Really, it's the little things, like more ice in my little water glass. Lol. (3) Food wasn't served simultaneously. For instance, my wife's food came out at least five minutes after mine. (4) Early on a bird pooped on one of our friend's hands (he was at the other table) and our table top was... sticky. I realize we were a large party and there were several large parties inside. I guess it really upsets me that the gratuity was included so what I thought of the service didn't matter. I wouldn't be so harsh if it didn't seem like there were plenty of servers. And they were friendly, and sweet, just not attentive.

    Photo Op down stairs by restroom
    Ashley R.

    Street parking was easy to find during the week but I'm not sure if there is a specific parking lot for this restaurant. The service was great, the waitress was nice and friendly. She recommended some items on the menu. We tried the zucchini fries and they were just okay. I probably would not order them again definitely lacking in flavor. I felt the same about both sandwiches that were ordered. Definitely needed more Philly steak in the sandwich and the California chicken overall lacked in flavor. I didn't much care for the chopped up celery in both sandwiches either, kind of threw the flavor off to me as well. I really wanted to try the pasta here but it was lunch and you can only order the pasta at dinner. It is really cute inside and they have lovely decor. I loved all the photo op opportunities but the food just did not do it for me unfortunately.

    PHILLY CHEESESTEAK
    Victor L.

    The 18hundred was a nice spot for brunch as they are located in a nice area of town and they had the Mexico vs South Africa game playing. The food was great and their cheesesteak was pretty good. I've never had a cheesesteak before but after eating it I can't get enough of it. Their service was also great and very attentive. Overall it's a nice spot for brunch or for dinner with friends or coworkers.

    Breakfast burrito.

    Always one of my favorites to stop by, been a couple years since I've been by. Came by today with a friend for her birthday. Amazing as usual. Great selection of craft beers and wonderful cocktails. Food is always on point.

    To be honest, at their prices, you don't need to wait for a "happy hour"! Their drinks are far superior to any I have ever had as well as unique.

    Not bar food at all. There’s a full menu for breakfast, for lunch and for dinner. Not sure what you’re looking at. Huge variety!

    You can eat avocado toast without cheese. It is only served for breakfast. It's pretty good. There are some salads that's vegan if you request without feta cheese. Salad without chicken is an option but not worth it since they won't reduce the…

Our cocktails and meals were spectacular: Botanist Fashioned: 5/5-the brown sugar cinnamon syrup added a spicy bite to each sip which was unexpected and fun. Watermelon Sugar High:4/5-refreshing with watermelon juice freshly made in house and an ice cube with mint frozen in it. Seared cauliflower: 4/5-great appetizer for 2. The crispy chicken sandwich and the Botanist smash burger:5/5-Both had super flavorful pickles and toasted buns which always add a lovely crunch to each bite.

He said they will close at 9pm but someone will still be there if I make it before 9:30pm. I got back to the restaurant at 9:25 and true enough, Mykayla was there and handed my credit card back to me, though they are closed already. Thank you to Fernando and Mykayla for the great help to get me my card back. Thank you to the wonderful people who work here and the management who ensures the wonderful food, topnotch service and people who work here, like Fernando and Mykayla!

Little hidden gems. Lighting is dark with bits color and neon popping through. The Bar Top curves around the bar- there are two booths that seat 5-6 and two short tables next to them- one seats 4- the other will comfortably seat two. There are a few bench style seating areas at the front with some short coffee tables. Think- skater tiki bar. The drinks were good- small menu if you're not sure what you want or are new to tiki. Both sides of the menu are the same menu. There are some nice mocktail options as well- you don't see that often. The service for me is mixed- it wasn't busy- steady but not busy- 1/4 full. I ordered two drinks to start for our table- (no cocktail servers here/not unusual for a small Tiki bar) I asked for a soda water- the bartender looked at me without a word- popped open a can of soda water and walked away. When he walked back by, I asked for a glass of ice- he said nothing and I got an eye-roll huff. I almost left. I don't think providing a glass with ice to pour your canned room temp soda water in, is too wacky an idea to be perturbed by the request. The female who took the order was friendly, smiled and was professional. We got a third cocktail- the Mai Tai. The grumpy bartender was friendlier this time. So, that helped. Maybe he felt overwhelmed and I threw off his groove by asking for water- then a glass... either way- being annoyed wasn't cool. The music.... Wasn't Tiki- it threw off the "Tiki Vibe" and made it feel typical small local bar that serves only Tiki drinks with some Tiki decor. It didn't take you to the land of Tiki- disappointed. Drinks were good.
