Delicious! Popped in for dinner for one and had the prime rib. I like mine medium rare and it was perfect. From the moment I walked in to checkout, the staff was friendly and professional. The place is clean and quiet. It was busy but the acoustics are nice and that's a good change from the loud environments at other restaurants these days. I enjoyed my medium rare prime rib with the side of potatoes au gratin, a garden salad with ranch dressing, and beer, battered fried green beans. I also had bread service and the bread was delicious, and served with a honey butter. For dessert, I had the brownie à la mode with vanilla ice cream and it was OK; it didn't taste fresh, sadly. I won't get it again. I will keep going back because I can have prime rib any day of the week! Enjoy! read more

Their prime rib is disgusting and every which way they prep it. You want a good steak and rib ? Go to outback stake house or Texas Roadhouse top tier food. Best damn rib eye I ever had. read more

Phenomenal service and the food was so delicious. I tried the new deep fried artichokes , oh my goodness they were so good!! My husband ordered the mini lamb chops and stuffed mushrooms, he was so happy !! I have to say even though the food was on point our server Rose knocked it out of the ballpark ! She was fast , friendly and always checked to see if there was anything we needed. read more

We went to the Hungry Hunter for a family birthday dinner a party of 10. I can honestly say I've only eaten there about 4 times out of my 55 yrs on this planet and boy have I been missing out. It's a cozy homey feel on the inside not over or under decorated. Just right. Music wasn't blaring. You didn't have to shout. We were seated fast. Greeted with smiles and warmth. Our waiter Diego was super sweet and handled our larger party with two checks, two birthday girls and ME being kinda needy. I was always asking for something it seemed liked and I felt like a total bother to him most of the time. But he handled the it like pro. He was cheerful and always and I mean always smiling. Our food was great. Everything was on point nothing was wrong. It was cooked to perfection. No one complained. Prices, we all felt were on point for eating steak and prime rib. Thanks to Diego for making our night great. If you need a night out, want a great waiter head to the Hungry Hunter and ask Diego. read more

First time here and honestly it was amazing. The place is super fancy, even the employees open the door for you when you walk in and when you leave, which was such a nice touch. We were seated pretty fast too. Our server, Jaime, was phenomenal. Super attentive without being annoying, and he gave some great recommendations. They bring out warm, soft bread with butter to start, which was so good.For our appetizer, we got the combo with potato skins, crab stuffed mushrooms, and calamari with a delicious sauce. We both ordered clam chowder, and it was honestly one of the best I've had. My hubby got the porterhouse with fries, onion rings, and a peppercorn sauce on the side, everything was delicious . I ordered the porterhouse as well with red-skin mashed potatoes and breaded green beans, and it was perfect.To finish it all off, hubby got the pumpkin crisp with ice cream and it was to die for. Definitely the whole experience was a 10/10 Ask for Jaime! He gives great service and super friendly. read more

Wouldn't know how the food tastes... went in, sat at the bar area... I must be a ghost because no one acknowledged me for 12 minutes. Not a hello, not a head nod, no nothing. It's cool. I've been denied service before. And trust me, it wasn't busy. And even if it was, acknowledge someone sitting at a table. TVs are small and the ambiance was dated and old. I went to get a full steak dinner, out of the 8 people in the bar area, I felt out of place because everyone was getting service but me. Clearly I made the wrong choice. They said thanks when I left lol. Never again. I won't be recommending this place to eat. read more

Omg! Everything was so delicious All of their sauces , like the bruschetta sauce that had tiny chopped olives in it. So yummy And If you like a good thousand island dressing. The bomb. Again, made in house If you request a house salad as one of the sides , they bring out a plate of greens and you get to choose your toppings from a lazy Susan type wheel. Some of the out of ordinary toppings were sunflower seeds and garbanzo beans that made for a yummy salad I had a filet mignon and my hubs had a New York steak. The best we've had in a long time Booth cooked just as requested and they were just so tender The waitress said they had just delivered their meat today so it was fresh cut. We came on the right day- Sunday The service was fantastic. Angeles was our waitress and she was so pleasant, friendly knowledgeable, and fast She had mentioned that they were down a grill so we would have a bit of wait for our meal but the wait was not any longer than any other restaurant We we're their on a Sunday evening so the restaurant was not packed. Maybe that made for the quick service ; however, it looked like there was plenty of servers so that makes for fast service as well Great job Hungry Hunter Steakhouse !! We live about 1 1/2 away but will definitely return. Worth the drive?! read more

First ate here in 2022. Pass through every Feb and stay in Bakersfield. Figure it was time to re-review the HH Steakhouse. I still love this place! Big shout out to Rose the bartender who was great! Place (especially the bar) was very busy during Happy Hour. Prices are typical steak house but HH menu is great and reasonable. Had the stuffed mushrooms again and I think they were better. Had the Mini Babas (Four Cajun lamb chops) which were not on the HH menu but as a lamb lover, these were great. Probably the wrong order but I finished with wings (sassy bourbon glaze). Two order of the HH wings would have been a meal. Rose made a great martini! House wine on HH menu was decent. See you next year, as this is my favorite HH in Bakersfield. read more

Second time here... Called three hours ahead to inquire about reservations. In speaking with Destiny, we could reserve A place for 2 but could not be guaranteed a table (vs a booth). As she said "well, in case we get busy, whatever is available when you get here is what you get." Since 8 pm on a Monday night is apparently a crazy busy time for them, we took our chances. We arrived on time, and the main dining area was mostly empty. They decided to seat us at the DARKEST table in the restaurant. Literally had to use our phone's lights just to read the menu. Three different staff walked by laughing at our situation. Every time, I said something about it being too dark to see. No one did anything, even though there were empty 4-top tables with lighting. To add to the ambiance, there was 4 men sitting at an 8-top next to us who had apparently just learned curse words and were doing their best to try them all out. Every loud sentence had at least one profanity in it. I dint feel it was the place, or volume appropriate for their conversation. Even though they were finished with their meal when we were sat, they only left slightly prior to our own departure. Jaime (the hostess pronounced it Jay-me, but he pronounced it Hi-mey) was our waiter. He lacked confidence, but was good at his job. I feel badly that his coworkers can't pronounce his name correctly, and feel they are probably part of the reason he lacks confidence. The meat was great. We couldn't see it without a flashlight (photos), and I have a thing about not seeing what I eat. The broccoli was cold, which was off-putting. The mud pie was delicious although I wasn't expecting butter pecan ice cream in a mud pie, as it's usually mocha flavored. All in all, I felt that we weren't valued as a guest here and with other steakhouses in the area, we may be treated better elsewhere. read more

Fifty two year anniversary, good reason for a great dinner at the Hungry Hunter steakhouse. We entered and were greeted and seated immediately, no waiting. The restaurant had a warm glow from the fireplace that was crackling. It was 4:45 so we were ahead of the dinner rush. The bar had a few patrons enjoying the Hunters generous happy hour golf was on the large TV it's a very comfortable bar. on Mark our waiter greeted us and had our drinks and delicious bread in no time, Mark was excellent very polished and experienced waiter. I started with a Vodka Cranberry and a order of crab stuffed mushrooms both were delicious. We decided on top sirloin's cooked medium salads baked potato's veggies and I had broccoli. Mark bought out the salad platter and made our salads as we directed he was good and so were our salads. The dinners soon followed, both steaks were tender and cooked just right. Our dinner was delicious. Mark offered us complementary chocolate cake which was rich and scrumptious. Our early evening anniversary dinner was outstanding and memorable thanks to the Hungry Hunter Restaurant and staff read more

We had dinner last night at Hungry Hunter. We both ordered Prime Rib, Standard Cut. Hubby asked for rare and I asked for medium rare. Both arrived very rare and tepid. The color of the meet told me it had been sitting out for a while. Very Disappointing. The fried string beans are terrible and the potato gratin was just edible, not more. We will not be returning. read more

Hungry Hunter Steakhouse - Steaks!! - Steakhouses Near Me - Bakersfield, California

The worst service too start! No consideration for comfort. 3pm tables still dirty. Asked for a seat away from the 12 person party. They would not oblige. We went across the street to Black Angus and was greeted warmly and give immediate attention and taken care of to satisfaction. Hunter steakhouse over priced, under staffed and not worthy of my business! Worst hospitality I. Bakersfield. I am. San Diegan in town for business and will never consider this establishment again , in town or out of town. read more

If I can write "ZERO STARS", I definitely would. Went in on 2/16, ordered at the bar for a to go order, bill was $55 and gave the waitress $80. She came back with $5, never said "thank. you" and I never saw her again. You don't have to worry about me coming in your restaurant again. I hope you really needed that "JACKSON"! read more

Hello Yelpies !!! When in Bakersfield this is a must have location for great food and top notch customer service. They don't rush you for an order and the drinks are awesome.

My wife Lori and I went to Hungry Hunter tonight for dinner. The food was fantastic! Prime Rib and Filet Mignon. The real reason for this review was for the service. We eat out often. Tonight, we were fortunate to get Karyssa as our waitress. She was one of the best we have had at any restaurant! She was very friendly, explained everything on the menu, checked on us often. She was very personable and did a great job! Thanks Hungry Hunter and Karyssa for a great dinner! read more

While on a road trip recently, we stopped for an overnight stay in Bakersfield and were lucky enough to have chosen this restaurant for dinner. We entered this restaurant tired and hungry, and left feeling satisfied by our delicious meal made even better by our excellent server, "Angeles." She was a true joy in every way. Even with large foreign travel groups keeping staff really busy, Angeles made sure we were well-served and happy with our meal. Thank you, Angeles, for making this the best dining experience of our entire trip! read more

Dear Kevin I love ur restaurant. That being said I'm sad leaving this review.at 638Pm Called in to place an order to go. It's Monday night not exceptionally busy. Ordered a prime rib double veggie and a carrot cake. Was told over the phone 20minutes till it is ready. Was then told that they would call me if it is ready sooner. I thought... WOW! Thats quick. I get to the restaurant paid for my meal at 7:04 PM to pick it up. .... your staff told me shes bagging it at 733pm, handed me my meal at 738pm Not a big deal had i not been told 20mins and we'll call u if it's sooner. Did they forget to put my order in? Does it normally take that long for a pickup order? Is tha the 1 1/4lb cut of prime? The front of the house said that you weren't available to talk so I'm leaving this for you here. read more

Our first time trying Hungry Hunters for our whole group except one person. We were celebrating graduation and we had 2 gentleman servers who were fantastic! Steven & I didn't catch our other servers name. But both were so amazing & attentive to our large group! Everything was delicious. They even bring out a little salad bar and you get to pick everything to build your own house salad. Can't wait to come back! read more

We booked a dinner here knowing it is a higher quality establishment.We were seated promptly on arrival. Very nice atmosphere, quiet and comfortable. Now for the best part, the food! We were a group of 5. Grandson had filet, his dad had the ribeye, I had the absolute best prime rib I've ever eaten. I believe them when they state house specialty. They said basically the same about their steaks. Dessert was incredible as well. Highly recommended. I was impressed as the waitress called me by name handing me my receipt and card back, thanking us for visiting. Well Done! read more

My friends and I (a group of four young adults) decided to randomly try out Hungry Hunter Steakhouse, even though we definitely weren't dressed for the occasion! We felt a little out of place when we first arrived, especially after being greeted by our first server, Kyle. He took our drink order but then told us he was handing us off to another server because he was leaving--though we noticed he stuck around the rest of the night helping another table. It honestly felt like he judged us too quickly, maybe assuming we weren't going to tip. But everything turned around when Steve took over as our server. He was incredibly polite, friendly, and attentive from start to finish. He made us feel completely comfortable and welcomed, which we really appreciated. The food was absolutely delicious and priced reasonably, which made the whole experience even better. The atmosphere was great, and thanks to Steve, we ended up having a fantastic time. We'll definitely be back, and dressed better next time! read more

It was a busy holiday Monday at almost 5:00PM. I grabbed one of 3 tables left in the bar. I wasn't there more than a minute or two when an our server Aiden offered me something to drink while giving me the happy hour menus. He also offered to bring me the dinner menus which helped me make my decision. We both offered the half off house wine & prime rib $3 cheaper than the dinner menus. What a deal! The food was fabulous & service excellent even though every table & most bar stools filled. I'll be back! read more

Hannah was the most amazing waitress, so kind and welcoming! The service was wonderful and we loved the atmosphere. We wished we love the steaks..... by far the most salty piece of meat either of us had ever had in our life. My husband from Texas and me from Southern California we eat at a lot of amazing steak houses. This would have been an easy 5 star but the meat was ruined by the amount of salt. We never send food back, and we didn't this time either out of respect for the staff. Our greatest respect for the staff but please stop over seasoning good meet read more

The last good happy hour in Bakersfield must be right here, at Hungry Hunter Steakhouse. This place hasn't changed in the last decade or so. It's the same feel as the original Hungry Hunter Steakhouses, except that it's privately owned. Clean, tidy, and welcoming is exactly what you want at a restaurant, and Hungry Hunter delivers. We arrived during happy hour, in search of a cold drink on a warm summer day. The bar was packed, but by luck we were able to score a small table. We were promptly attended to and orders of half off appetizers taken. Overall, a very decent place to grab a drink, watch a game, and enjoy happy hour. read more

We were only in Bakersfield for a few nights and this restaurant shared the parking lot with the hotel we were staying in, so decided to give it a try. The portions are large since with every main dish you get a choice of soup or salad and 2 sides. I opted for the ribs, with onion rings, and potato gratin. We also decided that while we couldn't finish our meals, we needed to take a dessert back with us to eat later. We went with the chocolate molten cake which they boxed up for us. Later when our full bells had settled we enjoyed the cake and it was great! read more

We had a big party here and it was well staffed and coordinated. We had 30 guests in our party and they did an awesome job at organizing each detail. The appetizers: sampler, mini lamb chops, shrimp platters were devine. Our server continued to replace as needed. Everyone ordered either ribeye or prime rib or some porterhouse steaks. All meat was cooked to perfection for each guest. The biggest thing for us was our servers. Each of our servers were attentive and always there to refill drinks, appetizers, or anything our party needed. Dessert trays were the highlight, along with coffee. There are many places in Bakersfield that will host big parties, but if you want class service and terrific food, then Hungry Hunter does it right. A Big thank you to our servers and to Tammy (banquet coordinator) for making our evening special read more

We had a craving for the best prime rib in town. My hubby and I went to a late lunch last week and we were delighted as usual. They have the best shrimp cocktails in town and we started with those. The shrimp are huge and so delicious and they make their own sauce and it's great. My husband loves their Au gratin potatoes and their fresh vegetables are perfect. Do yourself a favor and go and don't forget the fantastic happy hour. Half price on appetizers and burgers. read more

NY Strip steak, baked potato, corn on cob and salad made at table. I requested medium/pink in middle of my steak...half of it seemed right on target, the rest not. My suggestion about corn on cob...as I asked is this beyond the season... water soaked cob, better to cut the kernels off the cob and serve it that way when not corn cob can be fresh. Norwegian salmon, rice pilaf, and red-skinned potatoes ... all delicious. We enjoy having the salads made at the table so can choose toppings. Couple of 805 beers...remember next time about happy hour as we missed it by 10 minutes. Good service. No room for the desserts which were shown and all were huge! We ate in bar area to enjoy television shows. read more

Local favorite and have never had a bad experience here. My husband and I come here a few times a year when we want to have a "real" steak in town. Our most recent date night consisted of the filet with red potatoes and seasonal vegetables and the porterhouse with the same sides. Steaks are always well seasoned and tender. Service is always quick and friendly. They have a large selection of wines and full bar, and a dessert menu to die for. Whether you are passing through, staying at a local hotel, or a long time resident who just hasn't tried it yet, I highly recommend you give this place a try if you are looking for a nice steak dinner. read more
