It's somehow every time I come to Bakersfield that I start craving Asian food. Thankfully, there…read moreare some decent options and new ones that continue to pop up throughout the city. I was craving pho and decided to give Saigon Bento a try. It's a little confusing because there's a Saigon restaurant and then there's this place, Saigon Bento. There's also a Saigon Bento #2. Apparently Saigon restaurant has been around for forever and is highly recommended, but was much farther, so I decided to come here instead. I honestly just like the meatballs in my pho and they were able to accommodate just this instead of their other preset dishes. It was good and packaged well for takeout! It was ready super quickly!

Annette was our server at Asiatique Eatery, and she was fantastic. From the moment that we walked…read morein, she had a smile on her face and asked us to sit anywhere we'd like. We sat down near the entrance to get some of the breeze from outside. The decor of the restaurant is nice, with lots of Thai-inspired decor. Now let's get to the good stuff! The food here is amazing. I ordered a hot pot soup that was simply perfect. The amount of spice was just enough, and I love hot pots because they keep my soup hot. My husband ordered a beef rice bowl and added shrimp to it. The rice bowl was also so delicious. To go along with my meal, I ordered Thai boba tea, and I loved it! The portions are generous, so we had leftovers, which we were happy about! I definitely want to go back to try some of their shaved ice; it looks amazing. I can't wait to go back to try other items on their menu.

I tried calling Asiatique Eatery several times to place a takeout order. Each time, someone would…read moreanswer the phone and then seem to set it aside without speaking. This happened multiple times. On the final call, the phone was answered and then left disconnected, making it impossible to place an order. The food is good, but the customer service experience was very disappointing. If customers can't get through by phone, how are they supposed to place takeout orders? I hope management addresses this issue because it creates a frustrating experience for customers.

The Scallops on a half shell are probably the best dish, the dumplings are fantastic, the fried rice is very good, and the crab hand rolls are absolutely amazing!

Chili crunch dumplings: 5 I love my dumplings and this is up there!! This was probably our favorite item. Would've gotten 2 orders looking back. Curry noodles w/ crab: 5 Amazing flavor. Loved the noodle texture. More soupy. Crab was a nice addition, a decent portion. Not shredded or small chunks but also not the most supple crab pieces either. But was happy that we added! Service: 10/5!!! Kathleen was amazing. So so nice. We originally had a different order but we kept going back and forth on items. Kathleen was not only helpful in helping us decide but came back to our table right before they started cooking and asked if we wanted to change our order only because the curry might give more contrast to our other items. I thought that was just so incredibly kind and really showed how she was invested in our experience. This is why I really wanted to write this review! Ambiance 5/5: Open kitchen is really nice and like that they had outdoor area. Garage parking next door too that wasn't too pricy. Overalls cute decor and clean space.

Sat in the back ( dining room) which was quieter. Anjelica, our server, was personable. Great menu, but I wasn't so hungry so just ate from my hubby's plate (! ) The garlic edamame was really good, not overwhelming like I was afraid it would be, and the drunken noodles had a bit of a kick to them. Good portions and out quickly.

Our server only remembered she had us in her area as we waved our two fingers to get her attention. It was a quiet night. I could see 4 other patrons in the general seating area. (Regardless- she received a Fab tip) Our food order was disappointing. Our appetizer, Crab Cakes, was greasy. TWO cakes. ?!? Our Entrees comprised of small, decimated over cooked and over sauced small servings in square bowls... ?!? 4 shrimps in our "Stir Fry". Seriously?! When a customer has multiple orders, and everyone wants to sample a little bit of this and a little bit of that... Do not expect this experience from this restaurant. Not gonna happen. I went to this restaurant when they were downtown. Good experience. I have no idea what's going on now once they've relocated to the Marketplace. Money best spent if you were to just go to the nearby Vons and pick up your own Thai or Chinese food & cook it at home. I wish we would have gone somewhere else.. 1.5 stars. We will not be a returning customer.

Kuma Sushi was a pleasant surprise. The ambiance is contemporary with a unique feel. The space is…read moreopen and airy, making it comfortable and inviting. One thing I noticed was the mix of different tables and chairs throughout the restaurant. It almost feels like a hodgepodge of furniture, but somehow it works and fits the contemporary vibe rather than feeling out of place. The food was excellent, the service was friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. We received our food surprisingly fast, which was a nice bonus. There was a mistake with one of our rolls, but the staff handled it well. They quickly remade the roll and brought us a replacement at no charge, which I really appreciated. One of the highlights was a custom roll with jalapeño, avocado, and asparagus. I added cream cheese and had it deep fried, and it honestly tasted like a sushi version of a jalapeño popper. It was absolutely amazing and something I would order again in a heartbeat. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. Good food, good service, reasonable prices, and a unique atmosphere. I would definitely recommend giving Kuma Sushi a try.

They seated us fairly quickly, putting us at a table between the last guests and an upcoming reservation which was perfect for us. We started with some miso soup which was pretty good. The blistered shishito peppers not so much. When peppers burn their skin turns dark black and very flaky, not a very fun texture to chew on. Little bits of burnt pepper skin was getting stuck in our teeth and gums. We only ate a few and sent them away. We shared the salmon lollipops, basically a no rice salmon roll wrapped in cucumber with a stick in it so it looks like a lollipop. They were refreshing but not filling so make sure to order more if you get this. Katie got a Sunrise roll and I got the Crouching Tiger roll which were both really good. We also got a side of the garlic green beans which were fresh and very hot. Our server was very nice and we had a great experience overall here. Prices were reasonable also.
