Hoagies is an odd name for a place that doesn't really specialize in hoagies, but whatever!…read more I looked up what their most popular meal was and it ended up being their Pismo Wrap. The wrap is filled with tri-tip, curly fries, avocado, and deliciousness. Usually when I visit a new place, I like to try different things on the menu, but Hoagies is a bit on the pricey side, so that doesn't leave much room to experiment. And after being disappointed by their fish and chips, I knew I had to stick with the Pismo Wrap being my regular order. However, the serving size is impressive. If you're ordering the wrap for lunch, you can save half for dinner. It's that massive. I couldn't finish it in one sitting. The vibe is totally laid back and feels like you're in a beach town. Service is always great here. And staff is always friendly! I highly recommend checking them out. One of my favorite places to eat at in downtown.

I stopped by during lunch and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't as crowded as I expected. The ambiance was relaxing, spacious, and comfortable, with soccer games playing on the TVs. The only downside was having to head back to work! From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted. I really appreciated the immediate acknowledgment and friendly service. Now for the best part--the food! I ordered the Cali Cheesesteak with curly fries, and it was absolutely delicious. In fact, my coworkers were jealous when they saw my lunch! Needless to say, I'll be back. Next time, I'm bringing the whole crew for a group lunch!

The first toast was peanut butter and strawberry jelly topped with coconut flakes. The second was almond butter and banana with cocoa nibs, honey, and cinnamon. The third was Nutella and hazelnuts topped with strawberries and coconut flakes. They were all delicious, but my favorite was definitely the Nutella and hazelnut toast. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and the variety made it fun to share and try different combinations. Service was quick and friendly. The ambiance is a cute cafe vibe. You place order at the counter and someone brings your order to your table. Smitten is definitely a must-visit spot when downtown for breakfast.

I had been waiting for over 6 months to try this restaurant as I live in Sacramento and they are in Bakersfield. I was worth the wait.

I just took off the gravy and finished that HUGE chicken fried steak. Then to top the meal off, I had one of the most enjoyable pieces of Carrot cake that I gave ever had.

Okay! why does free lunch hit different every single time?!…read moreI attended a professional development training and they surprised us with these lunch boxes! Yay! Tell me why I was immediately in love. The moment I opened it, I was greeted with a thick, generously stacked turkey sandwich that looked like it meant business. We're talking layers on layers of tender, juicy turkey, piled high with that crisp, freshly shredded lettuce that gives the perfect crunch in every bite. Even writing about it makes my mouth water all over again! The bread? Soft, fresh, and just the right amount of pillowy to hold it all together without falling apart. As if the sandwich wasn't already the star of the show, the box came fully loaded with a chocolate chip cookie,, a bag of chips for that salty crunch moment, and a little sampler of macaroni salad that was slathered in Italian dressing. So tasty! Honestly? Mouthwatering from start to finish. Whoever put these boxes together understood the assignment! (Haha) This is definitely a must try when hungry!

Since finding out about this location, we have visited this place a few times now. I really love the old school feel to this sandwich spot. You can either dine in or order your sandwich to go. Caesar's is hit and miss for me. Once in a great while it's one of the best sandwiches I've had and sometimes it's just okay. One thing I do know for sure is that I keep coming back because they have "that" clam chowder. My only complaint is that they are pricey and you can get a superior sandwich from other places. Parking is a little bit crazy during lunch time. Staff is always super nice here and the lines go pretty quick. I don't know if they have more than the 2 locations I know of. This location is not as fancy as the one on Brimhall, but their sandwiches are just as good.

When I want a sandwich there's about 4 sandwich spots I always think of and Jersey Mike's is…read moreprobably one of the top ones I always think of. 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.

Our visit was at the end of the day, so some of the meats were sold out. I was sad, but adjusted quickly and ordered a double meat plate with brisket and deep pit. Mac and cheese and beans were the sides I chose after some consideration and adjustment knowing okra was sold out for the day. The worker who greeted us and took my order was so knowledgeable about their menu and let me know what's up. The ambiance is lovely, the patio especially. On a nice day or evening it's just perfect. My meat plate was so bomb, you guys. The brisket was exactly what my soul needed. Their BBQ sauces are a dream come true. My deep pit was also so so good. I ate until I was on the brink of meat sweats and I have absolutely no regrets. I will be back here. Like, today. So good. Yelp never steers me wrong.
