    My brother really enjoys the Melodrama and talked us into going to see their Christmas show. This…read moreis a really fun experience. It's a great way to get away from the hustle and stress of Christmas and just enjoy some live entertainment. The atmosphere is awesome. Everyone has a smile. The actors are fun and engaging. No one takes themselves too seriously, which is weird because melodrama is in the name. ;) They have a snack bar. We got free popcorn because my brother has season tickets. And, I must say, it's pretty darn good popcorn. This is a wonderful family experience, and if you can get tickets. I really recommend you try them out.

With the gaslight melodrama within 2 miles of my house, I can't seem to stay away. The energy, the talent, and the sheer fun this place delivers never fades. The actors are incredible and always giving 110% and the staff is just as amazing, making every visit feel warm and welcoming. The skits are absolutely hilarious, the kind of humor that has you laughing long after the show ends. And the food? Always delicious and the perfect addition to a night of entertainment. After four decades of attending local shows, I can honestly say the Gaslight Melodrama continues to be one of my favorite places in Bakersfield. If you've never been, you're missing out on a true local treasure!

    When Bakersfieldians lament on the lack of local entertainment I can't help but wonder where these…read morepeople are looking? Bakersfield is full of events! Festivals by the dozens are cropping up every weekend, Food Fairs, and Home Shows. Our arts and music district are always putting on something fabulous. As for our local theater? You'd be hard pressed to find a weekend when there's not something showing. Gus' Garage was a totally new experience to me. I can honestly say that up until Gus' I've never been to a real live magic show. Only the one's on TV that make you wonder, 'is that magic or is it "TV Magic"?' So when I was told we'd be attending this variety show/magic show I was stoked. Something new and nearby! The location isn't what you may expect; over in Rosedale, as far away from the flourishing arts district as possible. It's inside a warehouse type garage - very unexpected. Parking is mostly on-street and no issue at all. Inside, the building is industrial chic. There's no real ticket window, and money is taken out of an old school cash box. Once paid, you make your way around to the back where the space opens up to the rafters. Half a dozen chairs or so line each row. A packed house would be maybe 30-40 or so folks. The show itself was entertaining. Perhaps a little silly and corny, but it's good old fashioned fun. There's a wide variety of talent and shows vary week to week, so definitely check them out. If you're looking for something totally new and different, check out this quirky show.

    Cue the dramatic trailer voice:…read more In a world where movie theaters can be sticky, chaotic, and somehow out of popcorn... one Bakersfield theater dared to be clean. Studio Movie Grill was a solid date-night win. From check-in to the bar to seat-side service, everyone was friendly, helpful, and on it. The seats are comfy enough that you may briefly question whether you came for the movie or a sanctioned recliner nap. We usually stop at the bar first, where I stay loyal to the Not-House Chardonnay while my husband goes full action-movie lead with the cocktails. A Tito's Bloody Mary feels like the brunch sequel nobody asked for but everyone secretly enjoys: bold, dramatic, and ready for its close-up. Then we order food, head to our seats, and let the magic happen. I also just learned SMG has a free rewards program, which honestly deserves its own plot twist. I've been using Fandango credits, but SMG rewards looks better since you can earn credit on menu items too. That's a very strong supporting character. Plus they support "special needs" humans with free movie nights...bonus for the non-profit twist. So why 4 stars and not 5? Because the plant-based menu is still waiting for its big breakout role. I think there's basically the avocado flatbread if you remove the cheese, which is fine, but I'm ready for the plant-based options to get top billing. Overall: clean theater, great service, comfy seats, drinks, food, and a fun date night that does not require awkwardly whispering, "Did we just spend $80 to sit in public?" Well... maybe, but at least it was worth it.

    We just left the movies where we watched Backrooms (crazy movie!). Our server informed us from the…read moremoment we placed our order that they were down to two servers and our food would take around 30-40 minutes to come out but our drinks would be out shortly. We were in no rush (and where were we gonna go really?) so we thanked him for being up front about the delay. My espresso martini and the hubs voodoo ranger came out in about 10 minutes but after another 10-15 minutes we pressed the button to find out about our daughter's Sprite. The lady in front of us must have pressed her button as well and when the server came she started yelling at him about the delay. I swear I'll never understand why people yell at the ones that serve their food but ‍ oh well. Our food took around the 40 minutes he originally told us so we were cool. I've decided however that I don't like eating in the dark. Especially not salad. I ordered the chili lime chicken salad and I was disappointed. The tortilla strips were stale and the chicken was hard as a rock. I figured the servers were already dealing with enough so I let it slide and just didn't eat the salad. When the hubs went to the restroom, the server thanked him for having such a nice family. He told him that we were the only ones that did not complain about the delays and he offered us a discount. The hubs took the discount and gave it to him as a tip. Moral of the story guys is, Be patient with your servers. They try hard but some things are just out of their control.
