What can I say? Soooo glad we stopped here at The Botanist for lunch today on our way to Paso…read moreRobles. My husband commented that it made him want to move to Bakersfield which made our server Emily laugh. Limited parking in back and some street parking. We walked in without a reservation at 11:15 on a Friday and were the first customers of the day. Great decor, dim lighting, vintage looking furniture which does not sacrifice comfort for artistry. 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. If you're ever in Bakersfield and are at least 21, this place is well worth it! We'll hopefully be back someday. Highly recommend!

I ended up getting a burger, fries, and a mocktail! The food was amazing but, from a student's perspective, I will say it wasn't a cheap eat. I really enjoyed the experience though so I didn't mind the little splurge! :) Would definitely come back here with friend for the apps and drinks!

Of course, I had to try their famous tri-tip sandwich and added a side of fries. The sandwich was loaded with tri-tip, tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with their BBQ sauce. The fries were a great addition and made the meal even more filling. I also ordered the Southwestern salad with chicken, and when I opened the container, I was honestly impressed by how much food they packed in there. It was huge, fresh, and loaded with chicken, avocado, black beans, corn, peppers, and plenty of toppings. Definitely not one of those salads that leaves you hungry afterward! I also have to give Firestone Grill credit for the sauces. They gave me two large containers of BBQ sauce AND two generous containers of dressing. As someone who hates when restaurants give you one tiny sauce for an entire meal, I appreciated that more than I probably should. No sauce rationing over here! I did takeout this time, but they offer self-seating and have a full bar, so next time I definitely want to dine in, grab a drink, and enjoy the full experience

A Delicious Thank You to Teachers!…read more What an incredibly thoughtful way to give back to the community! One of our teachers at school entered a drawing for a free catered lunch from Locale Farm to Table, and we were so lucky to win! The drawing was the owner Heather's way of giving back and showing her appreciation for teachers. She was especially touched by our teacher's story, which made the win feel even more meaningful. Many of us who work at the school already dine at Locale and absolutely love the food, so we knew we were in for a treat. Heather brought some of their most popular dishes, including a hot honey goat cheese spread with Pyrenees bread, roasted butternut squash and Brussels sprouts, a fresh garden salad, and a chocolate and strawberry pastry for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was how much thought Heather put into making sure everyone could enjoy the meal. She heard that we had some vegetarians among us and went above and beyond by preparing additional dishes without bacon so everyone had plenty to eat. That extra touch meant so much and really showed how genuinely caring and thoughtful she is. Having this incredible meal right before the first day of school was such a special treat. Teachers and school staff work incredibly hard, and feeling appreciated in such a generous way was truly wonderful. Thank you, Heather, for your generosity, kindness, and for supporting our school community! We are so grateful, and, of course, already looking forward to our next visit to Locale!

I've never seen a fast food lobby so clean! Idk if it's been recently remodeled but either way it looked great, well done He was also one of the nicest and friendliest fast food employees that have helped us in a long while. Also in spite of my wife making some modifications to her meal (I hate it and it drives me crazy) he remained polite and respectful. After briefly waiting we received our order and everything was not only fresh and hot, but all of our food was also delicately wrapped and presented nicely. I know not everyone likes Wienerschnitzel, but we love it! And while the rest of the fast food industry continue to set the bar disappointingly low, Wienerschnitzel continues to outshine their competitors. Great work.

It's crazy to say that these past few years I have become a fan. I literally used to live around the corner from this one and never came, but looking back I kind of regret passing this place up. I'm not a huge sandwich lover, so when I'm hungry or craving something, sandwich is not my first thought. Matter fact, sandwich is usually never my thought... but that's because sandwiches are not created equally. I can have a sandwich from somewhere else and they are definitely not Jersey Mike's. I can choose a hot sub or a cold sub and still feel equally happy with my choice. I love the app. Most restaurants/food places now have an app and ordering ahead is always a plus if you're on a time limit. There's never a wait time and your food is always done in time. Plus let's not forget the rewards, the rewards are the best thing about ordering. When you accumulate enough points you can get a free sandwich. I like to hold on to my points til I have enough for a giant so I can share it w my husband. If you haven't been to Jersey Mike's then you're definitely missing out. Whether you dine in or not you're gonna love the sandwiches. This particular location is always pretty clean, it stays consecutively busy so you know that the sandwiches have fresh veggies and freshly made meats.
