Another knock out concert held at World Records. The incomparable Walter Trout was in the house!…read more The lovely local Glenda Robles and Hot Taco opened the show. They have so much talent it's a pleasure that they are a Bakersfield band. Accompanying Walter this evening was Teddy Zig Zag on keyboards, John Avila on base, Michael Leisure on drums and John Trout, Walter's Son, vocals & guitar. What an all star band each member having a storied history of their own. On concert nights you can call ahead to order one of Jimmy's famous wood fired pizzas for a little nosh preconcert. Check out World Records website for upcoming shows and events. It's a great venue if you are looking to host an event. And as always music for sale.

Haven't had a bad experience at the Nile EVER!…read more I love coming to watch bands from my youth from up in the seated belcony. Once upon a time, you'd have caught me on the floor, but a las, my 37+ body says "I'm good" these days. Their drinks are mixed well, building still has nostalgic charm but is well maintained. Their entry process is very well organized too.

In Downtown Bakersfield you can find a unique music venue in the Historic Nile Theater. What used…read moreto be a local movie theater has become a hip local hangout to catch a show. The Fox Theater (around the corner) Foundation purchased the venue and offers (mostly) standing room only. There is enough room for dancing or hanging out by the bar. The bar offers a limited beer, wine, and mixed cocktails options. The lower, stage front section has lots of room for dancing. Free parking is on the street. 19th street is one-way traffic east bound. Nearby downtown there is plenty of dining options if you want to meet your group before the show, then walk over to The Nile. I've seen Steel Pulse and Strangelove Depeche Mode Experience at The Nile Theater. Both were 5 Star shows. My friend spilled his wine as soon as he got it and the bartender gave him a free replacement. Really kind.

We went to celebrate a birthday. We saw Sam Morrison & his band, they were amazing. It was our…read morefirst time attending a concert at this venue & we loved it. (Bob Seger Tribute)

Ordering online from their site is very easy! They have lots of tribute bands and last nights,…read moreSteely Dan Dr. Wu was really good! Talented artist filled the stage. 12 member band left them little room to move but it looked like they had a blast performing. Ordering drinks and snacks is easy but come early if you want to eat. The sound and lighting is very good in this small venue and I especially like that they don't have it so loud your eardrums are going to rupture! Staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable. If you have an issue with anything just ask. Bartenders are quick and the drinks are good. Expect to pay premium prices. Don't forget to grab some popcorn before the show start. Oh yeah, the upstairs bar is Cash Only! You can purchase drinks with a card down stairs then take your receipt upstairs for a drink. Find a concert you'd like to see and give this place a try! I think you'll enjoy it!

Great place to step down memory lane. Great food. We had…read morethe burgers and patty melt (which was late coming out, about 10 minutes after my burger) and I don't think we got the rye bread we were told it came on but rather sourdough? You judge in the picture. That says service was good and the food was good despite the questionable patty melt experience.

Thank you to everyone who gives us great service to make our experiences memorable. If you can make it to a Tiki takeover with their drink selections it's a wonderful time.

It's been many years since I have been to the Fox. The last three times were for graduations. I was…read morereally looking forward to seeing Anjelah Johnson yesterday, It definitely didn't disappoint. She was absolutely hysterical. I laughed the whole time. Good for the soul! My friends have seen her four times now. The bathrooms are located upstairs, so that's a pain. The place was so packed. They have a very strict policy about cell phones. You can't video tape or take photos. You will be escorted out and receive no refund. The last couple minutes, they turn on the lights and you can take a video or photo. I look forward to returning to this venue. * The opener for Anjelah was Mal Hall. Not my cup of tea. He screams loudly, and I just didn't enjoy the humor. 6/21/25

Great Traditional Steak House! The service is always on point, the drinks are made well, and the…read morefood is delicious. Highly recommend trying the coconut shrimp appetizer (perfectly crispy and coconutty), and the clam chowder (very flavorful and not too heavy) if they have it! The steaks are wonderful! I always get the filet (with a perfectly pink center every time) and it never disappoints. If you're looking for a steak house with a retro-vibe (the sunken bar and all around decor sends you to another time) this is your place! Also- the owners are great! You know you're in good company when you see them greeting tables, seating guests, bussing and setting up tables themselves.

Came here for a friend's birthday. We were told while ordering they will not split the check. They…read morewill take 5 different forms of payment. And, btw the gratuity is already included because you have a larger group. So, you've just caused a huge inconvenience for all of us. Oh, she tells us to keep tack of are own orders because we will have to determine what is who's. This restaurants cheapest dish is almost $40. Decent glass of wine is $18. Something wrong with this picture.

If you're ever in the area, either passing through or riding some quads, give this place a try. They have live music as well!
