We were in town camping during World Cup and wanted to catch the game somewhere. When I called and…read moreasked they answered all of my questions and we felt good about going there. We watched upstairs since my under-21 daughter was with me. They not only made sure the TV worked, but adjusted the music so we could hear the game, came up to make sure we were comfortable, and were just super kind. When I cashed out they asked about the game, when the U.S. was playing next, and just generally about how I was enjoying the cup. Super super nice people. Good beer selection, didn't charge my daughter for soda refills, and just a generally perfect experience. They let us bring food from one of the local burger spots too.

An Arlie's evening is like traveling back in time right and stepping out in your favorite country song. The prices are on the low end and the patrons know each other by name.

She said that I only could order one drink because she thought I was to "buzzed" but I watched her give drinks to people that could hardly walk or talk but because they are regulars that was ok. mind you I have lived in this town for 15 plus years but since I tend to cut my hair and dress like I dont fuck member of my family I was treated like shit.

It didn't take long at all to get it once I ordered. My co-worker got the Bo Daddy pizza and it was also delicious! The inside is kinda small so there is not a ton of seating, but they do have a bar you can sit at. They will also have outside seating when it warms up. Definitely a place to try!

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.

First let me say that the options in Ridgecrest are limited. You aren't going to find the best…read moreMexican food in the world here, but the Mexican restaurants are a better bet on average. But you don't want Mexican food, so what to do? Well, the ambiance and service here are fine. The food is fine. You aren't going to leave here feeling like it was a terrible experience, but you aren't going to leave trying to plan your next trip back either. My burger was slightly overcooked and slightly under seasoned. The fries were fine. The toppings were fresh. My wife's salad was mostly iceberg lettuce and a reasonable amount of over cooked chicken. Our server was fine if a little inattentive. The decor is fine. You know you're in a steakhouse-esque establishment that isn't in its hey day. But things are clean enough. I'm sure I'll be back the next time I come to Ridgecrest. Mostly because a restaurant that is 'fine' is about as good as I've found here.

They understand food as more than just something you eat, it's about living, health, enjoyment and natural wisdom. Johnny was super nice to us, spent a lot of time and was very generous. The portions were great and the prices very reasonable for the times and for what you get. I'd highly recommend checking it out and making it a regular occurrence. I'd say it's the best restaurant in Tehachapi. I like a couple others but nobody understands food and the rest like these guys as far as I've seen. And it's not pretentious, just real. Thanks guys. We had a great time. We will be back!
