J & M's Bar & Grill

My first impression walking in was that this place is definitely a mom and pop shop. It seems so much more once you actually open the doors and realize how large the entire restaurant is. They have a full size bar alongside the restaurant. Everyone was friendly, including the customers. They have a very warm and homeful feeling like you could ask for an extra piece of bacon sitting at your own dinner table. I had the suggested Chili Verde Omelette with biscuits and gravy as my side. It was unexpected and I know everyone makes dishes different but this was a very good solid flavorful Chili Verde. Not spicy and still has all of the flavors you're looking for in a dish like this I would recommend coming and trying this place out.

Small town diner with plenty of room. They keep the place up well. The wait staff are on the ball and everyone is treated like they're next door neighbors. The food comes out made well and fresh, and served quickly.

This is good place for large groups. 👌

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great menu. Portions are big and they have a nice bar selection. Waitresses are super friendly and nice. Our first time there and definitely not our last. Will recommend this place for sure.

Great service and great food. Chicken fried steak is up there with the best in Bakersfield.

Delicious breakfast burger and garlic fries

Outstanding breakfast stop. They are in the top ten of best places for breakfast in Bakersfield
They were semi-busy but I got my order within a reasonable amount of time. I had eggs, hamburger patty, fruit and biscuit and gravy. It was all very good. The biscuits and gravy are outstanding. I’ve eaten here several times in the past and it has always been good.

Food and service was great. Prices were reasonable. We will be back.

Great place for breakfast! Our retirement group meets there bi-weekly for breakfast. One of Bakersfield best kept secrets!

The food is great, fast, friendly, and courteous service. I'll definitely be going back!

Two biggest things in a place, keeping the drinks filled and customer service, both not satisfied with. Felt rushed in ordering as the girl didn't write down the order, came back without our sides and forgot what toast we all got. This place is OK at best, because the food was pretty good, or else I'd give it 2 stars. Got the omelet with toast as shown in my pic. I understand your bar is a dive but up the customer service to ALL and not just regulars and dudes with tats, and maybe you'll do better.
