My f*cking favorite burger spot…read more The monster burger is my order every time. I rave about this place to everyone I know, and encourage my people to stop here if they're taking a road trip to Vegas or LA from the bay. I finally tried the milkshakes this time around. The banana was ok, the pineapple was better. I like that it's not hella artificial. I love that they use real fruit bits. I'm not a huge fan of crinkle cut fries usually, but I like theirs. Why? Because they actually fry the fries to a crisp and then they're well seasoned. Yum. Every time I've come through, the girls working have always been really nice. Customer service is on point. I usually hit the drive thru and then park to eat. It's definitely a good place to people watch.. but I keep my doors locked lol. There's always a lot of movement on the street...

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!!

The line moved quickly. I ordered a caniac combo to share with my wife. The chicken fingers were fried perfectly. The cane sauce was perfect with the chicken.

Both of the trash cans to the left of the door were overflowing.. and the tables were dirty as usual. We ordered our food and found a clean table. The two tables of customers that were eating when we arrived placed the trays full of their trash on top of the cabinet that hold the two trash cans, because trash was already too full for more trash. Management must be incompetent at this place as dirty and trashy is a common theme in most of my experiences at this location. A competent manager would assign someone to empty the trash. It would probably take five minutes.
