We went on a Friday night. We got there and ordered a drink, the bartender said they were closing…read moreearly because it was slow (not even midnight when they close at 2). We sat on the patio and another worker came and told us they were closing soon and we had to wrap up, with our brand new drinks. He came back not even 5 minutes later and said "ight guys you gotta get out." And made us leave while there were still 6 or 7 people inside sitting at the bar. Honestly pathetic, made us feel like we were very unwelcome even though we were paying customers. I never leave reviews but this place sucked so bad I had to. The employees always seem so annoyed to have any customers at all. There's always rumblings in town of this place closing down, and if they continue to treat people like that, it's only a matter of time until that's going to be true.

Went to do our normal bar hopping experience today and stopped in to say hello. Had a little…read moremisunderstanding from yesterday and the bartender Elizabeth and Luke handled it very well. Wanted to give a big shout out to the both of them. They definitely know how to make you feel welcome in there. Also, Jerry is one class act as well. He came over and visited with both my husband and I and it was wonderful for us both. Looking forward to next weekend again.

HORRIBLE BAR. Just a heads up, if you want to come to this…read morebar, make sure you come with your people because they WILL gang up on you. I was here this weekend with my boyfriend, brother in law and his wife and everything was okay 'til the girls there got drunk and started a fight. Everyone knows everyone there so no matter what, it's all of them against you. We tried defending ourselves and at the end of the day, we were the ones that got in trouble because they all ganged up on us. Keep in mind, we're not even from Ridgecrest. We had just gotten there THAT night from San Diego and wanted to chill for a bit. The DJ was awesome. Great music, very cool guy. Besides that, horrible experience. So much sloppiness and very, very intoxicated people. Hogged up the pool tables. Bartenders were rude. Wouldn't recommend. Only gave one star because I had to or else I wouldn't even put any stars.

First time they forgot my chicken wing order. Luckily they have my number so they called and offered to bring it to me. Second time they forgot my cheesecake. This time they didn't have my number since I ordered it at the front. I was two months after surgery so was still feeling discomfort when getting in and out of the car so didn't go back to ask for it. So remember to check your order if you order for pickup to make sure.

Well, stumbled as in, it's either we drink here or pick up some beers and drink them in the parking lot of Albertsons. It's a local watering hole that serves craft beers on tap. When we went, it was bustling but we still got plenty of attention from the bartenders. Clean bathrooms, but it's a shared unisex one. Prices are reasonable and plenty of tables/seats.

This is quite literally the only local place that sells properly humidified cigars. They have a reasonable selection of infused and traditional cigar face brands to choose from. Additionally, as an added bonus, they even offer their own line of house cigars sourced from Nicaragua to choose from without any of the brand markups. The interior is small but clean and nicely decorated with leather and wood accents. The real sell of this place is the ambiance - a nice, comfortable, relaxing place to enjoy a cigar while chatting with other cigar smokers or watching a movie/game. There's a a pleasant timeless feeling inside. I live in an apartment so finding a spot to leisurely smoke that isn't going to violate my lease or my neighbors comfort is nothing to balk at. Lastly, this is a place for all cigar smokers, new and old. With amiable and highly knowledgeable certified tobacconists on hand, recommendations and suggestions for your first or next smoke are readily available. You do not require a membership to come in and enjoy a smoke but there are incentives to do so. I will definitely be returning to this sanctuary.

But you don't want Mexican food, so what to do? Well, the ambiance and service here are fine. The food is fine. You aren't going to leave here feeling like it was a terrible experience, but you aren't going to leave trying to plan your next trip back either. My burger was slightly overcooked and slightly under seasoned. The fries were fine. The toppings were fresh. My wife's salad was mostly iceberg lettuce and a reasonable amount of over cooked chicken. Our server was fine if a little inattentive. The decor is fine. You know you're in a steakhouse-esque establishment that isn't in its hey day. But things are clean enough. I'm sure I'll be back the next time I come to Ridgecrest. Mostly because a restaurant that is 'fine' is about as good as I've found here.
