Absolutely, positively the best most delicious food in Kern County! The staff is always friendly, outgoing and helpful. I have used Jake's catering for many large company events .... the employees always request a repeat.
This place has the best food. Im vegetarian and they have many options for me. The staff is very friendly also!!
Jakes is just simple and great, great example of less is more, not a lot of items on their menu but they are all great! My personal favorite is the pit beef sandwich! It's probably the best I've had in town. And their chocolate cake is just the icing on top!
Cake! Cake! Cake!. I really like the cake.. The food isn't all that, I never buy their dinners.. But the cake is to die for!!! :)
My first time here, the girls behind the counter were very friendly, I ordered the tri-tip plate, it was more well done than I like, but still good, next time I'll ask if I can get it a little more rare.
Yum! I love it and the cake. Who cares if a Texan doesn't find it Texan enough, it's yummy!!!
Jakes is one of my favorite local restaurants. Their food always tastes fresh and their staff is always really nice. I love the nachos with chicken and those cheesy potatoes are so good. I can't afford to go as much as I would like to but their prices are not that high considering how big their portions are. Oh and I love the cake. I usually put it in the frig for an hour and then eat it with some milk. Super yummy!
Good honest food. Crowded, people seem to be willing to stand in line!
Returning . . . ?. I must admit, this food is very tasty. I usually order the tri-tip sandwich without onion spread, mustard and BBQ sauce instead, plus a piece of their famous chocolate cake. However, their prices are too high and a return does not seem likely (except maybe for just a piece of cake). Do I recommend this joint? Certainly. Evaluate the cost as your wallet permits.
This is not what anyone would consider Mexican Food, but it's a great place, especially for lunch. Their deep pit beef is good on anything! Be sure to try their cheesy potatoes & chocolate cake! The only downside to Jake's is their lack of parking spaces -- sometimes it's really hard to find one!
Chocolate cake. Salad with homemade thousand island dressing. Great tri tip sandwich.
I'm not a huge beef fan but the shredded beef here was great, cornbread tasty, and the chili beans just right. Prices are very good. Simple but I don' t think you'll be disappointed.
