    I love their empanadas. I haven't tried their chicken yet but I highly recommend the empanadas!

    Finally had the opportunity to try Pollo Campero after one opened up in my neighborhood. The fried chicken was excellent. It almost has a red golden brown cross to it. But that's just all the flavor. And the flavor is not just in the fried chicken skin, but also in bed into the chicken itself all the way down to the bone. The grilled chicken was also very great tasting and was all well seasoned. Being that today was the opening day. The service was a little bit on the slower side being how busy they were, but I have no doubt that within the next couple of weeks that'll be something that they can improve on. This particular Pollo Campero location is brand new so the building itself is pristine .

    Tried it for the fun of it after work. The ladies up front are very nice, loved the service. Just a regular fried chicken fast food. The chickens pretty good, so is their spicy chicken sandwich. I'd suggest coming if you want to try it one time. Super sad they don't have Mac and cheese anymore though!

    Empanadas

    This place was a lot better than I expected. The chicken nuggets and beans along with the fries were decent. It the really winner was the empanadas. The menu is simple and price fair so not much to complain about. The place was also clean and they got the food out fast while still keeping it hot. I would cold back if I was in the mood for fast empanadas.

    Bread . Hard and cold

    Let's start off with the chicken. Way too salty ... bread tasted like cardboard. It was dry and hard. Last the rice side was not even a serving. No taste. I would not come back or recommend. I paid about $12.50 for a two piece . No drink.

    The ambiance is bright Central America colors. Pop music playing and food delivered to your table. The service was quick and friendly with a smile. The food was fresh and very flavorful. The chicken was juicy and tender with fun flavors bursting with every bite. The side macaroni and cheese was a little over cooked but had good flavor. The fried plantain was good, maybe a little under cooked but still not bad. I feel like maybe the come frozen, which makes sense because it's so hard to find good fresh ones. It came with two corn tortillas that were good. Over all the meal feed me and my husband and was just a tad over $20. For the price I feel like the flavor and friendliness is worth the money. Come check it out and ask for juana she was just so friendly.

    The chicken sandwich was dry as my son's elbows. The fries were cold. What a waste of money. The sandwich needs some sauce or an option of something. You could choke on how dry it was

    First visit and last visit. Forgot my sauce. I opened bottle of hotsauce and bottle bottom popped off and spilled all over table my clothes and shoes and floor. So no apologies. Went to restroom that was out of paper towels. Cleaned myself up as much as I could. Got back to table with cold food. They just cleaned floor and said nothing else. Any other place would have comped my food or else brought me hot food. Any other time I would have cussed out everyone at the counter. My coworker talked me down. Will not be going back to a place that doesn't gaf about their customer's. I didn't even eat all my food. Too much for nothing good.

    Beware of the Empanadas. Bit into this one and found the bone fragment in it.

    Took a bite out of the empanada. An came away with a surprise. Bone fragment. Careful what you order there. You should not have to check food before you eat.

    My wife and I tried the 2 piece combo. With 1/2 second meal. I paid $15.46 or close to that. I had fries as my side. My wife had rice. The fries were skinny fries and cool not hot. They were just a tad hotter than cold. The chicken was crispy but the seasoning had either Cumin or Curry and it overwhelmed my taste buds. I only ate the drumstick and tossed my fries with my dogs. My wife was not impressed. Her rice was cold and she also didn't like the seasoning on the breading of the chicken. I'm glad we used a coupon we will not be back.

    Campero Spicy Chicken Sandwich Meal. No chicken sandwiches, they didn't give it to me. Terrible

Of course, I had to try their famous tri-tip sandwich and added a side of fries. The sandwich was loaded with tri-tip, tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with their BBQ sauce. The fries were a great addition and made the meal even more filling. I also ordered the Southwestern salad with chicken, and when I opened the container, I was honestly impressed by how much food they packed in there. It was huge, fresh, and loaded with chicken, avocado, black beans, corn, peppers, and plenty of toppings. Definitely not one of those salads that leaves you hungry afterward! I also have to give Firestone Grill credit for the sauces. They gave me two large containers of BBQ sauce AND two generous containers of dressing. As someone who hates when restaurants give you one tiny sauce for an entire meal, I appreciated that more than I probably should. No sauce rationing over here! I did takeout this time, but they offer self-seating and have a full bar, so next time I definitely want to dine in, grab a drink, and enjoy the full experience

    I stumbled onto Hot Tender Wings the way most hidden gems get discovered these days -- through an…read moreInstagram page dedicated to spotting local Bakersfield spots. Honestly, if it wasn't for them, I probably never would've known this place existed. Hot Tender Wings doesn't seem to do much marketing, and it's tucked away on Union Avenue near Superior Grocery, so it's easy to drive right past it. But I'm glad I didn't. I went with the 8 Piece Tender/Wing Combo -- 4 Garlic Parmesan wings and 4 Lemon Pepper tenders -- which came with a can of soda, fries, and a dip. The menu also lists coleslaw and garlic toast, but those didn't make it into my bag, made me a little sad. I also grabbed the Mexican Burger, which caught my eye because there's a spot in LA that does a legit al pastor burger patty, and I thought this was the same concept. Took everything back to the office for lunch, and my wife and I went in. The Garlic Parmesan wings were seriously good -- well-seasoned, cooked through, and still crispy. The Lemon Pepper tenders were juicy with great seasoning, not dry like so many places serve them. That's honestly the bar most spots fail to clear -- wings and tenders are either fire or garbage, rarely in between -- and Hot Tender Wings cleared it with room to spare. The fries were standard but fresh and seasoned well, no complaints there. Now, about that Mexican Burger. When I unwrapped it, I realized it was built like a torta -- al pastor meat, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, the whole thing on a hamburger-style bun. Was I a little let down? Yeah, slightly. But was it good? Absolutely. It just wasn't what I pictured. If you're going there for wings, stay in your lane and get the wings -- they outshine the Mexican Burger by miles. I probably won't reorder it, but only because I'm at a wing spot next time, not because it was bad. Speaking of wings, their current flavor lineup is Original, BBQ, Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, Mango Habanero, Sweet Chili, Buffalo, and Nashville Hot -- solid, but pretty standard. What separates the good spots from the great ones is when they go beyond the basics and make it their own. Bakersfield Pizza Company does Taco wings and Strawberry Chili wings. Fire Wings leans into Asian-inspired flavors. Hot Tender Wings is already solid -- now imagine if they leaned into their surroundings and added Mexican/Hispanic-inspired flavors. Birria wings where they thicken the consomé into a toss sauce? An Elote-style wing dusted with cotija and chili lime? Yes, I'm putting this in writing. Yes, I'm a little obsessed. But that kind of creativity would make them standout in this city. Go check them out. The food is good, the price is right, and they're easy to get to. Just make sure you get the wings and tenders, straight GAS!!

This was my celebration meal for getting through summer school. It was the perfect choice. I ordered the 2pc Spicy Chickenjoy w/ Jolly Spaghetti. This is my favorite spicy fried chicken of all time because it is HOT and crispy. I love to give it a good dunk in the gravy for the perfect bite. Pairing it with the jolly spaghetti is my go-to. If anyone has ever asked "Why does Filipino spaghetti have hot dogs?" the answer is simple-- because it's delicious! Filipino spaghetti is sweet and tangy, and an absolute must have when visiting Jollibee. The service here was excellent and pretty quick. The restaurant is an average size for fast food with tables and booths available. It was also very clean too. I'm looking forward to my next visit already!

It was quite funny because we pulled into the…read moreparking lot, and my partner was asking where it was and I pointed and said "it's probably the building with the bucket of fried chicken on it." I couldn't get over how funny that is! I walked in on a mission to get that dang Jollibee glass tumbler. I saw a sign that said the location was allotted 108, and when I arrived it looked like there was ten or so remaining. There was nobody in line to order, but appeared as though two people in front of me had already been helped. We placed a large order at 11:15am for the 10pc chicken joy, the glass tumbler, Yum burger with cheese snack pack, spaghetti family pack, and some sides including mashed potatoes, rices, and coleslaw. They had a promotion running if you spend $35, then you get a free chicken sandwich too. About ten minutes after placing the order, our food was ready. There was a small mix up because I thought I said to go, but it was rang in as dine in (I'm really not sure if this was my error, or the cashier's error), but when the food was ready it was on a tray. I asked if we can have it bagged up for take out and Iris was very sweet and kind about it. It was really refreshing to see someone not get upset or defensive about extra work a little mistake caused. I really appreciated the customer service. When we got home, the order was accurate. Unfortunately, I was so excited about the food, it didn't even cross my mind to take a photo of the feast. I really enjoyed that the chicken skin was still crunchy, and the chicken itself was still moist. As for the spaghetti, and yumburgers - they tasted just like the other locations we've had in the Valley, SGV, and in Honolulu. It's really nice to have this option here in Bakersfield. Even the parking is plentiful. Overall - this is a great spot, and would definitely recommend coming here.
