Great food, large portions, and great service with a smile!

Such great food and wonderful atmosphere!! highly recommended!!

Best garlic fried chicken in town. The cabbage soup is always amazing especially with their beans and salsa. I love the fries at the end of the meal(dessert!). I also appreciate the dinner time of 6pm which lets my food settle before I sleep. I have never had a bad meal here and the servers are always friendly. One of my favorite places in town hands down.

Had lunch here and I was pleasantly surprised at how hospitable and amazing the food was! I will definitely be a returning customer when I get my basque craving!

Friendly, fast service. Delicious food!! And they support local nonprofit serving our community. What could be better?! A true pillar of the Bakersfield community!

I finally went to the new Noriga’s last night. I’ll be honest, some of the past reviews concerned me. However, I was thrilled with the experience and the food. I called and made reservations earlier in the day and they said be there by six. I specifically wanted to eat at Noriega’s because I love the family style dining. There’s no other basque restaurants around that has the family seating.I loved walking in and the elegant waiting area. In case you’re confused when you enter, you can order a drink and wait until the doors are opened and you are sat. You do not get a menu and that is what family style serving and seating is. It’s a great experience if you’re open to it.The foot was excellent and I love, love, love the spaghetti. I want one of the whole serving dishes to myself. I also really enjoyed the clam chowder and the lamb they were serving on Friday. We had great conversations with our neighbors, who were strangers prior to sitting down. We even exchanged contact information. At the end we even got a box to take food home.I highly recommend it and it’s best for people who are open to chatting with friendly strangers as you’re breaking bread.

service was awesome alot of food

Love dinner. But the waitresses are lazy. Should get new staff i swear i saw someone from the kitchen come out and do her job. And not to mention i heard an older man tell a cook i think to wear a mask but i noticed he nor anyone else working with customers weren't wearing a mask. So far only good thing about this place is ricky and charlie the food os great. VERY POOR FRONT SERVICE. Again waitresses are very lazy ur better off asking a cook doing their job to get any thing. Honestly the cooks should be paid more for doing the waitresses jobs.

Spare ribs and garlic chicken with the set up...$40.00 per person was definitely worth it. Can't wait to try other meals. Staff was quick and courteous. Reminded me of the original location.

It is so nice and wonderful staff, they definitely kept the traditions alive.
