    I've given the new owners plenty of chances. This time, I decided to dine in instead of getting takeout to see if the quality had improved. Unfortunately, the soup was terrible, filled with gristly meat, and the broth tasted like water rather than chicken. They barely gave any sizzling rice. I didn't even eat the soup. My son said the buffet was decent and ate it, but to me, everything looked unappetizing. I'm done. This was the last chance for the new owners to make things better. Sadly, you can't get sizzling rice soup at any other restaurant in Tehachapi. For really good food, I have better luck in Palmdale or Santa Clarita. 6/9/24

    Food was ok. I went to use the woman's restroom and the hydraulic arm that is supposed to slow down the extra heavy door did not work. I heard the door coming too fast and reach behind me to try and slow it down. Instead it caught my fingertips in the door. I am brining this awareness before some child opens the door and gets hurt.

    Smallest serving I've ever had from any Chinese restaurant. Most of it was hard carrots and veggies. My soup only had 2 wontons.

    All the veggies!!

    Plant based options on buffet! Broccoli, green beans, eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, cabbage, mushrooms, tofu....works for me! Some of these were taken from the meat-based dishes, broccoli taken from the beef & broccoli. The meat-eaters should be happy with the remaining meat-to-vegetable ratio. Red bean sesame balls for dessert. Decent meal overall.

Mi última experiencia fue algo totalmente distinto. Llegué con mi familia y tuvimos que esperar unos 30 minutos para pagar; nos hicieron sentarnos en una zona de espera donde había una alfombra empapada (no sé por qué). Mientras esperábamos, pasó un hombre sin hogar, se saltó la fila sin pagar y nadie lo detuvo. Se dirigió hacia la parte trasera del restaurante y, desafortunadamente para mí y mi familia, ahí era precisamente donde nos habían sentado. El hombre empezó a tomar los platos limpios y a apilarlos, y nadie decía nada. Tuve que avisar a una empleada, quien le indicó que no podía hacer eso; él se detuvo, tomó un plato y comenzó a llenarlo de verduras y carne para que se lo cocinaran. Yo estaba esperando detrás de él, y él seguía tomando comida para un tercer plato, hasta que la empleada volvió a decirle que no podía hacerlo; finalmente, se quedó con uno de los tres platos, mientras que los otros dos fueron a parar a la basura, arrojados allí por los empleados. Tomé un plato --haciendo un gran esfuerzo por seguir dispuesto a comer allí--, pero mientras este hombre esperaba su comida, se puso a deambular por la zona y comenzó a tocar las cucharas y los tenedores sin motivo alguno. Una vez más, la empleada le pidió que dejara de hacerlo. Cuando los pedidos estuvieron listos, él tomó mi plato por error; eso fue la gota que colmó el vaso para mí, así que decidí abandonar el lugar. Ahora me pregunto: ¿por qué tenemos que presenciar todo esto? ¿Y acaso nadie habría hecho nada al respecto si yo no hubiera dicho nada?

Somehow, one of the very best is hiding right here in little old Tehachapi. The chicken tikka masala is so good I'd consider putting it in a thermos and taking it on my next flight. The biryani?

Everything we've tried has been packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and served with the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like you're eating at a friend's house--if your friend happened to be an incredible chef. Prime Bar & Grill may have "bar" in the name, but don't let that fool you. This place is quietly serving Indian food that could go toe-to-toe with restaurants in much bigger cities and come home wearing the championship belt. If you're driving through Tehachapi and skip this place, that's a curry-ous decision. Five stars. I'd give it six if they'd let me lick the tikka masala bowl in public.

The Chile Verde has shrunk in both size flavor and increased in price. It is simply not the same it is too mild; if you want it more spicy they have an up charge, which is nuts. The tacos were extra greasy and the enchilada sauce was bland. Even the two salsas are literally like nearly tasteless. According to the waiter, the owners like it watered down because they think the community doesn't appreciate spicy foods. This is insane. Tonight, I thought things couldn't get worse, but of course I was wrong as another server, not the waiter brought the meals and literally knocked a full glass of water across the table, soaking me and my partner. Other than bring us extra napkins there was no other comps. The place seemed slower than normal for a Saturday night, so maybe the town is noticing the same thing we are. The bathrooms are disgusting. I hope they fix this stuff because it has really given us pause about even coming back.

I was told no, then I said ok instead of paying the rate of $23 can I just sit with them, to hot to sit outside, manager came to front & said everyone pays..
