    So many options...
    Matthew C.

    While conducting some business downtown my wife and I decided to stop in for breakfast. She had been here before, but my first time. As soon as you walk in you're walking into a tiny little section where you check-in. The dining area itself is very small, and the tables are even worse. For a Thursday morning the place was packed. We certainly love our breakfast/lunch cafes in Bakersfield. We were seated at a very small table. With all of the table arrangements it was barely big enough to fit our plates and drinks. Even worse than the table were any hopes of private conversation. The only thing that separated us from being seated with the other guests was about an inch of space between the tables. Service, while polite is also very quick. It's evident that they get you in, you're served, and time to go. I felt very rushed. The bright side is how quickly coffee is served which is great, but so was the check. They have a very nice menu with all sorts of breakfast options, sandwiches and drinks including beer and mimosas. (The problem is, you won't get a chance to look over the menu before being being prompted to order) I opted for the tres leches pancakes, sausage instead of bacon, hash browns instead of country potatoes, and eggs scrambled. The egg portion seemed a bit small but were well cooked, the hash browns were perfectly light and crispy, and the sausage was sausage. (Sausage is the pretty much the same wherever you go.) These pancakes were so good, I loved them. Great flavor without being too sweet, My only complaint is that the pancakes weren't warm. I'm guessing the tres leches sauce wasn't warm when added which caused the pancakes to become cold, but they were super tasty. My wife said she ordered the chicken fried steak the last time she was here, and she enjoyed it so much she ordered it again. I also tried it and it was very good. I really like that the steak was a bit crispy, nice touch. Hopefully with their success they're looking to expand, it would be nice to enjoy breakfast without sharing your conversation with others and theirs with you.

    Great food and service. Top notch and pricing is reasonable. California omelette.. yummy. Located across from Costco. I've been there 4 times. Even give you your drink "to go" after your meal.

    Scrambled is a POPULAR MEXICAN-AMERICAN BRUNCH SPOT w/ delicious fusion meals and warm coffee to kickstart the day. It's not a shock that this is one of the TOP places to eat on Yelp's Central Valley - South list. You'll immediately notice Scrambled's Yelp award at the check-in table. Here's why they have an award: Upon arrival, you'll notice Bakersfield locals come here. We waited about 20 mins as it was quite full inside and we arrived during a Saturday morning (on Valentine's Day). All sorts of guests visit, families, couples, seniors etc. I overheard the regulars say there's excellent mimosas here, I didn't try them but they looked good. Each patron had something positive to say and had a fun little story about their visit to Scrambled. As for my meal, my Mom and I both got cafe de olla which is essentially a Mexican blend of coffee with a hint of cinnamon. Fantastic! Next, I knew this place was known for its Mexican breakfast AND scrambles, so I decided to try the best of both worlds. I ordered a chile verde scramble. The flavor was really good, everything felt homemade. The meat could've been slightly more juicy, but everything worked so well I didn't mind it. The ambiance was moderately noisy, yet relaxed. I got an authentic cafe vibe here as my Mom and I were able to hold a conversation without having to raise our voices. My Mom said she got an authentic Mexican cafe vibe, I can see it! Everyone was super sweet and professional, I felt right at home.

    I heard about Scrambled from a friend who had been there and swears by the breakfast burrito. I'm usually a sucker for breakfast burritos too so I was sold! We came in on a Saturday late morning, we had to wait about 20 minutes to get seated - which the hostess was up front about and it's not surprising this place was busy! We were served coffee which was super good and super needed to review the menu. I had every intention of verifying the breakfast burrito but I saw all the chilaquiles options and had to try one of those. We killed our plates and were so happy to be able to stop in here. We'll be back for sure!

    This is the only the second time I have been here and each time it has delivered! Their food has not disappointed me yet. This time we tried the croissant sandwich, the sunshine breakfast plate, and the French toast combo. When the French toast came out I was worried at first. It didn't look like it was cooked well enough but I was so wrong...it was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. I was most excited about being able to order turkey bacon though. My daughter said her sandwich was good and my husband said his pancakes, bacon, sausage, ham, eggs and potatoes were great. This place has some great food and I will continue to go and try something different every time.

    We landed in Bakersfield early on a Sunday morning to start our vacation and found this great breakfast place. It ended up being our favorite meal of the entire trip. Lots of options so everyone in our group of 6 got something they liked and everything was really good. My favorites were the pork verde chilaquiles and the tres leches pancakes. Maria, our server was so friendly and very attentive.

    We were looking for a place for breakfast and we're in the Rosedale area. Scrambled look like a nice little local café. It's on Rosedale right across from Costco. The service was a tad slow, but after we gave our order, the food came out quickly. It's basic fair with good size portions. We added a side of bacon without problem. The food was tasty, well cooked, and reasonably priced. If you're looking for a good place for breakfast, give this a try.

    Stopped by for breakfast on the way through town. Interior is traditional diner style with mix of booths and tables. Staff was friendly, we were seated quickly, and they were quick on drink refills. Ordered a bacon breakfast burrito: was a good size and I likes the ratio of egg/cheese to potatoes. Friend ordered the tres leches French toast and enjoyed.

    We went in for breakfast on Saturday morning at 9am. It was busy although we were seated right away for a group of 5. From our group, the steak and eggs plate was great along with the chiliquiles divorciados. The person who had the pork chop plate said the meat was a little dry although the potatoes were delicious. Mimosas were also good. I gave this place 4 stars because during our entire time there we weren't asked for refills on our water. It wasn't til the check came was when our server came to check on us.

    Chile verde omelet with potatoes.
    Mark T.

    First time here. I will definitely be back. Polite staff. Nice little restaurant. Service for our group of 8 was ok. Food came out a different intervals, minutes apart but we were enjoying the company so it wasn't that big of a deal. Food was spot on. I ordered the chile verde omelet. Chile verde was very tender and had more heat than most places in Bakersfield serve. Potato's were excellent. Nice blend of veggies and potato. Toast was very good as I ordered the wheat and it's nice to see a place still serving two full slices. Even the diet soda was perfectly carbonated and flavored.

    Solid breakfast spot! Our friend was visiting and found this new spot for us to try. "You can review it on your welp" Yes, Welp! . We got there and she had already checked us in. Wait can be a little lengthy on a weekend. It took us about 20 minutes. Entrance is super small and tight, and navigating is made even more difficult as people are making their way out and in. We sat at a table but ended up requesting to move to a booth that opened up. The tables are pretty close to one another so it can be a bit strange to basically have breakfast with the people to the sides of you. Service is excellent, items on the menu are more than just pancakes and eggs. My wife got the chilaquiles, I got a breakfast chicken burrito and our friend got tres leches pancakes. The food was delicious and the staff is very accommodating to substitutions. Eggs are soft and fluffy, chilaquiles are tasty and our friend enjoyed her pancakes. It's a great place to eat, catch up and have friends drop crazy bombshells *puts down burrito* "welp.... That is intense. Hope it all works out" We have come back several times and enjoyed it all.

    This is a good restaurant for breakfast in Bakersfield. We were looking for some place to eat between Los Angeles and Yosemite and found it on Yelp. Food was delicious and portions were good. Orange juice was great but the coffee was on the weak side. There were a lot of people eating when we got there but we were seated quickly. Service was prompt and friendly. Basic diner vibes.

    The dudes chicken and waffles 9/10 on 4/20.
    Angie R.

    The dude and I stumbled upon scrambled when two places during the holiday weekend were closed and scrambled appear to be the only place to get breakfast and I'm so happy about that because this was probably one of the best breakfast spots in Bakersfield or even in the central Valley. When we arrived, there was a short wait, but we are greeted immediately and seated. The staff was so friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was great. There was so many happy patrons and hungry folks enjoying the meal. There are many options to choose from and it was such a hard pick every time we go this is our second time that we've been here so I can tell you the food is great and definitely every time we pass through or stay in Bakersfield just cause scrambled is definitely on our list . The Chilaquiles are so yummy and the staff are so awesome on recommending the different food items for different dietary restrictions . The dude enjoyed his meal as well and I did too. The serving portions are huge. The food is so flavorful. Each time we come the place is always packed and the second time we came we had to wait about 10 to 20 minutes. Definitely worth the weight each time. I'm not sure if they take reservations, but I would highly recommend if they do make one as this place gets pretty crowded. There are also a lot of to go orders so they are definitely doing something right. The staff looks happy and enjoying the work that they do which is an added bonus to the customer as well. Each time we go, we always get the Mimosa flight which you can't go wrong as their mimosas are top-notch. Also, you must get the biscuits and gravy you won't be disappointed at all. I seriously cannot wait to come back. You will thank me!

    A Delicious Stop After the Farmer's Market!…read more Stopped by Mas Bella after the farmer's market and had such a great meal! We started with three drinks: the Tullum Bloom, Strawberry Margarita, and Strawberry Lemon Drop. All three were delightfully fruity and refreshing, making it hard to pick a favorite! For food, we ordered the birria bao buns, shrimp bao bun, chile relleno, crispy beef taco with refried beans and rice, and camarones with refried beans and soft tortillas. The birria bao bun was my absolute favorite! The mini bao is packed with flavorful birria, and I absolutely loved the consommé they serve alongside it for dipping. It's such a fun combination, and that consommé takes the bao to another level. I also really enjoyed that they make their salsas in-house. They served both a verde and a roasted red salsa with the buns, and both were delicious. The chile relleno was another standout. That melted, cheesy goodness inside was everything you want from a chile relleno! The crispy beef taco was an unexpected winner. It was served with what seemed to be the same delicious birria-style beef, so it was instantly a favorite. The crispy shell paired perfectly with the tender, flavorful meat. The camarones with soft tortillas were also really good. The shrimp were well seasoned, and the soft tortillas made them perfect for building little tacos.

I can only recommend this place for a good happy hour spot because prices are outrageous for drinks. Once again they should've focused on the food than the decor.

We were essentially rushed out before the already early closing time, with no proper send-off. Overall, the experience felt very unprofessional and uncomfortable.
