This is my absolute favorite place to get Korean food in Bakersfield. Any time my sister and I get a chance to "treat ourselves," we KNOW this is our first go-to. The food is so freaking good! They have so many tempting dishes to choose from, but it's a struggle to decide on choosing something new or sticking with out favorites. And if you love soup, the dumpling and rice cake soup is a must! We keep ordering it despite the weather, and you know it's good if you're willing to brave soup in the summertime! My other all-time favorites are the fried tofu in garlic sauce and the cheese tteokbokki, along with the banchan. The owner is super welcoming and always kind, and the ambience is nice enough that you can bring a group of friends to talk chisme and eat. I would honestly reccomend that everyone try this place out, it's the first place I tell family to try when they come from out of town.

If I could give this place a 4.5 I would!!! The owner was so nice and even mixed up our food and served us! I absolutely love their hot stone bibimbop!! It's so filling, and you can adjust the spice of it because they give you the bottle on the side! They give you a small tray of side dishes and they're all so yummy!! I was just a bit disappointed that my 떡볶이 had SO much onion, and it's something I'm not used to. It wasn't super spicy either, I just wish it had less onion.

It is criminal that there is not a line outside the door of this place.. The food is amazing, and the service is beyond compare. Instead of making the trip to L.A., stop in Bakersfield, unbelievable. We never felt rushed, and the owner, Lydia, made sure that we felt at home. She loves what she does, and it comes across in every aspect of the experience here. We felt like family, no exaggeration.

Lovely quiet Ambiance and we came after the lunch rush so we had the restaurant virtually to ourselves. The dining area features 9 tables, the decor is low key dim so you can feel relaxed as you enjoy your meal. The owners are just the nicest people, attentive and quick to answer any menu questions. Today we both had Korean label beer (chilled bottles and the glasses were pulled from the freezer on this 95° day) I've eaten Korean food on many occasions but my lunch friend had never had it. What I noticed about the menu is that not only does it have very good dish photos but they numbered the photos that corresponded to what the menu offered so you kind of have a preview to what to expect which is nice if you are new to this cultures cuisine. To start we had an appetizer that we shared of fried battered shrimp that comes with a tasty sauce for dipping. Banchan dish (complimentary 1st dish then a refill if you need is extra) is placed on the table which consisted of three types one kimchi cabbage, stir fried fish cake and the 3rd was a succulent cucumber Kimchi. All 3 were delicious We ordered number 53, BBQ Pork Galbi served on a cast iron skillet over a bed of white steaming onions. You know how fajitas are served with a steaming hot presentation? This dish is served similar to that Who doesn't love a little dramatic presentation with their meal? I know we did. That was accompanied by a small bowl of white rice. Next we ordered Item 17. Pork Katsu is served with what I believe may have been Japchae Sauce, Savory and Slightly Sweet drizzled then garnished with sesame seeds. The cabbage salad wonderfully topped with a house Mayo based sesame dressing. That dish has a generous portion of white rice as well. I ordered a take away for my husband. It was a bowl item 41 spicy pork rice bowl and that came with its own generous portion of cabbage kimchi. We felt like perhaps they could have been a little more generous with the pork meat since we are comparing it to the portion of pork on our last visit (perhaps it's our faulty memory) we sat and chatted even after our meal was over and finished our drinks never once feeling rushed to get up and go. So our experience here was a home run for Georgia who said she could see herself coming back for another meal. Don't let the outside distract you from what's going on inside the kitchen. The food was hot and the beers were cold . Spent $100.00 before tip but for 3 dishes I'd say not too bad.

Amazing food & people! We came to this restaurant on our way for our roadtrip and we are so glad we stopped by! Amazing food, wonderful service! The lady was so nice she helped us to distribute food and pack them to go! One of the best people we've met! Thank you!

Food was delicious every single plate was amazing. We tried the short ribs,bulgoli and spicy pork noodles would definitely recommend. Kimchi and pickled cucumbers were also soooo good! Amounts are great to share. Owner was very attentive, great customer service.

Was driving through Bakersfield on a road trip and decided to stop here for lunch. Run by a sweet couple and all the cooking felt and tasted homemade. They asked us where we were from and we talked a bit about Orange County. I felt the portion sizes were fair with some slightly on the small size for the value, but still I think overall it was a very good experience.

Please come here. if i ever ask a random stranger on the internet to do something, it would be to ask them to come to Crazy BBQ. The owner was literally THEEEEE nicest human i've ever met. Me and my best friend came here for dinner to close out a long week at work. It was around 8pm on a Friday night and it was empty! We were seated right away. I ordered the cheese tteokbokki (my favorite thing ever in the entire world now) and the black noodle. It came with banchan as well. Everything was so tasty and flavored well. We also split a bottle of strawberry soju. The restaurant is very clean and has a nice bright vibe. There were kpop posters, tv's playing youtube and a local radio station playing in the background. Now my favorite part of the whole dinner was getting to meet Lydia. (hope i am spelling that right!) She was so sweet to me and my friend, i felt like we were here own family. She helped us prepare our food and let us know about a korean food festival (happening October 1st, 2023 at river walk btw!). I decided to order something to go and ended up talking to her. She told us that her daughter makes the macaroons in house and gave us one each for free. They were delicious! She also gave me and my friend some jujubes and taught us the name in korean. I had never heard or had a jujube before, so it was such an awesome moment to experience with another person. I could really feel the love. It was a little pricy but for the service we received it was beyond worth it. I would come here everyday if I could!! I really wish this restaurant got more attention, they whole heartedly deserve it!!!

Can I give 10 stars instead of 5? Service is the best here and if we lived in Bakersfield, we would be supporting them all the time...but instead I'll just have to tell everyone I know to stop here whenever they're in the area! We walked in and the owner greeted us like she knew us and immediately started to play with our kids. Our son is very shy but our daughter was all for it! We were driving through on a long road trip so we would take any break we can get! Before we even got menus, she ran to the back and got snacks & juice for my son, which was amazing so he could just sit and eat while we ordered. We ate kimchi fried rice with spam, and an order of bulgogi with comes with rice and banchan. Our son ate the rice by himself. She also cooked a little bowl of rice and eggs for our daughter, and she sat down and pulled up a chair, and started feeding her. Didn't ask, didn't tell us to eat, she was just in her own world and truly wanted to help take care of her, it was so adorable. She would ask us if she could give her water or some of the spam first though. Our daughter who is usually very antsy, sat through the entire meal and ate it all up! My son pointed at the ice cream macarons and she said to grab any for him. She only charged us for the kimchi fried rice and the bulgogi that we ordered. My son had a great time too after all his food and juice, he even gave her a hug when we left. The kimchi fried rice was so good and she mixed it up with the egg for us. I've never had it with peas and carrots before, I could've done without it and just enjoyed it with the spam! The bulgogi was also so flavorful and tender and I liked that it was thinly sliced and weren't giant pieces. She said that she and her husband became owners after they got bored of retirement. They are truly just doing it for fun and she said she enjoys seeing all the kids that come. She was just the sweetest angel that helped give these tired parents a break. I hope we will get the chance to go visit them again!

Okayyyy, I have been to Crazy BBQ before and LOVED it.. but todays meal solidified that. I believe they are under new ownership, with a completely different menu than what I had previously tried. Came for lunch with a co- worker, and was pleasantly surprised with the decor and atmosphere. Very clean and inviting! We were greeted many times by the waitress who was amazing, she recommended one of the hot stones, so we tried the spicy pork, along with the pork fried rice, egg rolls, and garlic chicken ( not pictured) The flavors were on point, and delectable. I couldn't stop eating... it was all amazing! The garlic chicken had the best crispy skin with a sweet honey garlic sauce. 10/10. This is definitely an underrated spot that needs more attention! We will be coming back more often for sure :)
