Went for a drive up to Hart Flat for a visit so we decided to go on in to Tehachapi for lunch. We've been here before but it was many years ago so we thought we'd give it another try because as memory severed us it was pretty good. When we walked in we were promptly greeted and seated by a friendly host in a clean well stocked booth of condiments, gave us menus that also had the daily specials. For lunch time on a Saturday it wasn't very crowded. Our server promptly arrived to take our beverage orders and recite the daily special of Salisbury steak and the soups of vegetable beef and creamy chicken noodle. Upon returning with our drinks she took our orders and three of us ordered the special of the Salisbury steak and my husband ordered the pork chops. We all opted for mashed potatoes and it came with veggies. My husband said his pork chops were good. Our Salisbury steak was too came with you typical dark gravy and it no way looked like a Swanson dinner sometimes they can replicate. Actually the portion size was huge. No one ate all their food and the other couple with us shared their meal. We just have to remember this place because it was some really great diner type food at reasonable price. Clean and friendly service. read more

Love delicious food and reasonable prices? If so, you're going to love this place. On the way to Woodward Skate Camp, to drop our son off, we decided to stop for lunch with an hour to kill before check-in. In all these years this place hasn't changed much. Still great service and tasty food! read more

Most of their food is typical hole in the wall stuff but if you are lucky enough to be hungry on a Wednesday, grab their turkey dinner. YUM!!!! read more

We are a group of 4 that go to lunch at Village Grill on Tuesdays. The food is good & service is great. We have never gotten a meal that was bad. read more

I stopped at the Village Grill restaurant on Monday, July 6th. I walked in and the one server looked up at me in horror. She had several older men, sitting at the counter, no masks or anything. She quickly put a mask on and told me that you had to eat outside and that she was going to kick the male customers out. She even told a customer that they were going to get her fired. A customer said that the men there were protesters to the COVID requirements. I also never saw the server use hand sanitizer once! Now, this server is an excellent waitress but I felt so uneasy and unsafe eating there.  And the food was mediocre this time. I had steak & eggs. read more

Village Grill - Steak & Eggs - Diners Near Me - Tehachapi, California

We eat here a lot at least once a week. Everything I've tried I've liked, same for my husband, good food, good service..

I really used to enjoy eating there until , I started to get this waitress that's rude every single time, her name is Anne, She's nasty, She probably hates her job cause she's so rude to the patrons or just me. But in any case she makes it a very unpleasant experience. They should have a talk with her maybe being more pleasant would make your eating experience better. Would have given it more stars but but she's just bad. read more

My husband and I are totally in love with this place. We go there at least four times a month and not once have we had a bad experience. The waiters/waitesses are super. The food is always perfect. Just the way we ordered it. Nothing has to be taken back. They always have smiles on and a great disposition about themselves. The music they play is as well great. Please don't ever change. read more

To start the service was excellent. The food was good all the way around. There was 3 of us in the party. One had the chilli burger. One had steak and eggs. I had the liver and onions, highly reccomend. It is the best liver and onions that I have had in a long long time. I reccomend that you give this place a try read more

Just a good, classic diner. Their burgers are absolutely delicious, and the staff is super friendly. Really solid choice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. read more

Best breakfast I had in awhile! The entrees are modestly priced. I had the corn beef hash. It was moist and not greasy or overcooked. The poached eggs were perfect. My companion had a spinach and mushroom omelette, she was very pleased. The home/country fries were very good. The service was very personalble and friendly. She was plain sweet. Definitely a treat. read more

We stopped for breakfast and the food was perfect. It was one of the best places we've stopped at for breakfast in a long time. Staff was extremely friendly. We will definitely be coming back. read more

The only reason I'm giving them a three and not a five is because they got my order wrong I should've gotten hash browns not home fries my waitress was so busy she didn't notice and she wasn't very good at first with the drinks she got better as time went on the food was good except for the home fries they were a bit burnt but we ate them anyway the biscuits were to die for really. so yes I would go back and I left a nice tip although I did see my waitress serve people that were regulars before me hopefully she was just to busy to not notice that we noticed read more

I placed my order for breakfast this morning and we went to pick up our order. The girl that was at the front wasn't wearing a mask, so I looked inside and the other people in there were not wearing masks either. I mentioned that I was there to pick up, and if the cooks wear masks. She said yes they are wearing masks. As I'm walking in they start to put their masks on, the other girl is telling the cook something. Cook had no mask on. So, I told them to cancel our order. Sorry, I don't know if those people are sick or not. read more

Coming here is tradition for our family when traveling to Las Vegas from Hanford. The food is always great an the service as well. This country style restaurant has great food every time an we love it. read more

I came in yesterday evening alone, it was Father's Day, 6-16-2019, and I was seated immeadeatly. Even though it was NOT that busy, it took over 10 minutes for my order to be taken, and even longer, over 15 minutes for my ONE item to be brought to my table. I ordered the sample appetizer plate. Everything was WAY over cooked. See the pic. Normally, this restaurant is decent, but today they fell flat. read more

So it is what it is. A diner, with the stereotypical diner attitude. They love their regulars, the rest of us are treated like the unclean. Waitress needed more sleep and a hearing aid. She was a bit short with us because she couldn't hear. Food was extremely bland and mushy. No refills on my water while the regular looked to be getting a back rub and all the water he could drink. I honestly don't understand how this place stays busy. Lackluster bland food, and poor service unless you are known by the staff. Never again. read more

It was really good me and my friends went and it was very calm and the food was great.

A local place to eat. The specials today were fabulous! I choose the top sirloin and baby back ribs. Came with a corn on the cob, baked potato and a salad. The ranch dressing with croutons on the salad was just amazing!! The cornbread, was so authentic and big, and buttery, and delicious. My friend had the fried shrimp with mixed vegetables and the chicken noodle soup, which she says was the best she ever tasted and took an order of it to go! We didn't leave room for dessert but plan to next time! Our server was very helpful and the atmosphere was very down to earth, loved it! read more

Outstanding food and service at "The Village Grill" in Tehachapi Ca. Check out ALL the food you get on the senior (55+) menu! (Except the side salad....I ordered that extra) and ALL (INCLUDING THAT EXTRA SALAD) for UNDER $20! The sirloin steak dinner is just juicy and delicious. The portions are large enough to split for a lunch the next day! (Two meals for $20!) Shop & eat local folks! Make "The Village Grill" one of your regular stops! Enjoy, and stay blessed! Sorry....the stupid site wouldn't upload my pics! read more

Great food my favorite place in town for biscuit and gravy. The servers are always friendly and helpful.

You can usually tell if the restaurant has a good chef if the soup is good and they have good desserts this place qualified on both ends they do a wonderful little piece of steak for 10.95 with all the trimmings on the senior menu and I had liver and onions. It was very good. friendly quick service too read more

Came here for lunch today w Mom. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and mom got the senior steak lunch special. Both were solid. The beef and vegetable soup was very rich and tasty. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered. The cheesesteak was delicious and filling, came with a side of seasoned fries. Service was great, the restaurant was clean and the prices were very reasonable for amount of food. Will definitely come by again when I'm in the area. read more

I've been going to the Village Grill for better than 10 years. I rarely have a meal that isn't great and I've never had a bad meal. Service is top notch from all the servers. I recommend the Mexican Scramble or Verde Omelet for breakfast and the Mike's burger is great for lunch. Portions are better than average so you won't leave hungry. Their soups are fresh made there and are always delicious. Prices are reasonable. This place isn't fancy, just good home style cooking. read more

We got snowed in on Thanksgiving and this was the only place we could find that was open. It is a very typical diner place. The staff were very nice and the service was good. The food was average nothing great and nothing bad. If I could give 3.5 stars I would. Honestly not a place I would go back to as there are a lot of better places in Tehachapi but if you are just looking for a quick simple diner type meal this place will not disappoint read more

Good Ortega burger not the best but definitely not the worst. Good beef waiters r on point.

This place is pure nostalgia for me. I have been coming here since I was about 5 with my Grandparents and family. Its a great old diner in the middle of Old Town Tehachapi. I love that nothing has changed about this place. It still has the same blue booths, that little bar where truckers and old men sit and eat. This place has all the classics- burgers, meatloaf, fried shrimp, baked potatoes...my Grandma's favorite is the Chili Size. I dont think I have seen her order anything else. I love their house salad with homemade giant buttery croutons and yummy fatty ranch dressing. This is actually the location where my Grandfather and I shared our last meal together two weeks before he suddenly passed away. He always loved their Chicken Fried Steak. read more

I ordered a cheeseburger at $9.95 and the hamburger patty only covered half the bun I asked the waitress what's up with this? And she said the cook said that how that's is served it wasn't even a quarter of a pound Patty. You get more from Wendy's down the street. read more

Went here with my family tonight. Had the worst meal ever!! First off I ordered a vanilla malt. The malt came to me melted and tasted like milk blended with malt I didn't taste any ice cream. I ordered the avocado mushroom burger. The burger came to me burnt and over cooked the meat tasted as if it had been freezer burned and the avocado on the burger was going bad had black and brown spots all thru out it. I wouldn't have even served that to my self at home let alone pay someone else to serve it to me. I clearly was not happy and was now starving . The waitress apologized but didn't do anything but say oh we didn't charge you for your burger. Yeah you think?!? I didn't eat it you better not have charged me! Will NEVER ever eat there or recommend this place to anyone! What a flippin joke! They should have paid me for wasting my time! -_- read more

Village Grill - The avocado they serve! When asked for another piece for my burger they said it all looks like that - Diners Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Good "home cooked" meals at a reasonable price. Excellent service. One of the few places in Tehachapi that stays open after 8 p.m. -- they close at 9. We eat dinner here almost everytime we come to Tehachapi, CA. I would give them 5 Stars but their mixed vegetables are from a can (or taste like it anyway). read more

Poor service. They tend to close early without explanation. Not a good recommendation.

We stopped here on our way home from seeing the grandkids for Christmas. Breakfast is my favorite meal but most restaurants think "vegetarian" means load it with bell peppers, portobello mushrooms or make it spicy. The Village Grill was an absolute delight!! We had the best veggies omelet we've ever had and the service was wonderful. We will plan our next trip to the Bay Area to take us by this place. It's one of the best small town local places we have found. read more
