Wool Growers Restaurant - Bakersfield (CA)

5 /5 yung-chin Chen: We order ox tails and lamb chops per recommendation of the restaurant for traditional basque food. They are so good. Ox tail is so tender and tasty. It matches the rice well. The lamb chop is also good but volume is smaller and the French fries is so so. We add soup and salad. It is totally worth it. The price is not cheap but with the quality and quantity it is justified. No wonder it has so many good reviews.

5 /5 C4rP3 0mN14: Came in for lunch came out with course meal instead Free soup, salsa, bean. Just mix them up and bread Thought we were done.... Lettuce salad and very crunchy delectable tomato salad, Free...... Fried chicken skin with garlic was the absolutely delicious and fresh fried French fries just make it the perfect combo Dunno about Bakersfield but the only reason I am in town is this restaurant

5 /5 Zachary Watts: Service was spot on and the employees were very polite and helpful. It was my first time eating Basque food, and with a little guidance, it was a wonderful experience. The soup, beans, salsa, salad, Filet of Sole, fries, spaghetti, carrots, and bread were all awesome. They just KEPT bringing food. Alot of new and exciting flavors, very savory. 10/10 reccomend, can’t go wrong here. This local business deserves your money.

5 /5 Good Hope: A Truly Unforgettable Experience Having traveled from coast to coast over the past 30 years, we have had the pleasure of visiting countless establishments—but none have left an impression quite like Wool Growers. From the moment we stepped through the door, the warmth and kindness of the staff made us feel like part of the family. We always seek out family-owned businesses during our travels, and this gem stood out in our search. We are so grateful we found it. The food was exceptional—flavorful, authentic, and clearly prepared with great care. The portion sizes could not fit on the table. Just as impressive was the impeccable service. Every staff member was attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. We had the honor of meeting the owner and learning about the family’s rich heritage, which added a meaningful personal touch to our visit. It’s rare to encounter such heartfelt hospitality, and we truly cannot express how thankful we are for the experience. In three decades of travel, we have never encountered hospitality of this caliber. This establishment is a shining example of what makes family-owned businesses so special.
