Dinner was wonderful. Service was great and the atmosphere is amazing. The new slushy machine makes a great lemon drop drink. Now called the "Phoenix "

Came out to the Petroleum Club for dinner. We had the whole place ourselves. Parking was easy. You climb a small flight of stairs and were greeted quickly and sat in a nice corner table overlooking the golf course. Our waiter Jonathan was wonderful. He checked in on us regularly, gave us some suggestions for food and dessert and let us know about other events that they do. Like build your pasta Thursday, Tuesday night Jazz and the upcoming Mothers Day brunch. We had lovely Zinfandel. The filet mignon and the lamb were delicious. My favorite thing was the butter cake! Ugh soooooo good. The appetizers were ok but overall a very nice dinner.We would like to come back for one of their other events and we checked out the patio area which has a covered area and lights. Will definitely come back in the summer time.

This hidden gem of spot was fun to find and we were super excited to try. The night we went they had a huge event and we couldn't sit in the main dining room and we sat in upstairs bar. Service was good and friendly, food came out really slow possibly due to the festivities happening in the main room. Food wasn't bad but not my favorite, we wanted to try this place again on a night where there isn't a huge event taking place. Oh the festivities were for vincent fong, his political party event. I dont want to judge this place too soon but im going to give it another shot.

My wife and I made reservations here for our seventh anniversary and were excited to try Bakersfields most prestigious dining establishment on a Saturday evening. I have been thinking about getting a membership here as it is close to our home. The restaurant is now open to the public, so this was a perfect opportunity to give it a try at its new location. We arrived just before our reservation time and rode the elevator to the second floor. We both immediately noticed the creaky noises it made and were quite concerned we would be stuck in the short distance between floors but alas. The door opened to the foyer upstairs. We heard dishes clanking and muted chatter in the dining room down the hall but found the hostess podium to be vacant. After standing around and clearing our throats a few times, the bartender wandered over to us and informed my wife she would get to us in a moment.Another five minutes later, a hostess arrived and escorted us to the dining room and gave us our menus. This was the last time we received any attention from the staff, as 20 minutes later we had not been given waters, drinks, or even a second glance despite other staff coming and going and attending to other folks on the dining room. The menu looked fairly standard; I had planned on getting the steak frites, and my wife had planned on the grilled salmon.We got up and left, and nobody noticed. We went to the Padre instead and got the same dishes we had planned on getting at the Petroleum Club. So much for the country club experience. Guess I won't be getting a membership here after all.

I haven't been here in over 20 years! And it looks exactly the same. And that's okay. What has not changed is the good service! The staff was super friendly and gave great service. We actually went for a private event: a bridal shower. There was a private area upstairs and we were able to order from the "design your own pasta". The food was delicious and I was pretty impressed. Good flavor and good amount of a serving. I'd definitely return for a drink and some pasta!

We had a lovely dinner last night at the Petroleum Club. The view out on the golf course at dusk was beautiful. The tables were set beautifully with black tablecloths, beautiful gold chargers, and sparkling crystal. The wait staff was attentive, but not intrusive. They did a great job anticipating our needs. The menu is diverse, with a good selection of options for casual and fine dining. There are many options for people following a plant based diet.My dining companions tried the clam chowder. They thoroughly enjoyed it, reporting that it was creamy, full of clams, and nicely seasoned. They both followed the soup with the salmon salad. The salad itself was a nice mix of different lettuces, fruit, and veggies, topped with a very nice size portion of salmon. They both enjoyed it very much. I had the plant based Salisbury steak with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes and veggies. I believe the Salisbury steak was a house made veggie patty. It was flavorful and the texture and crust were very nice. I will look forward to eating that again someday! My companions then shared a raspberry cheesecake with a chocolate crust. They reported that it was delicious.Upcoming events in October include a wine pairing and Sunday brunches.All in all this is a great place to enjoy a wonderful meal. I look forward to doing so in the near future!

My wife and I got married here 2 years ago, decided to come back for Valentine's Day. Bad idea. Seems like there's no order or organization. we sat 7:45pm, they were kinda full, multiple open tables, but not busy. waitress didn't attempt to take any type of food order till almost 9. They had no clue wha table ordered what.They just kept walking around with food on tray asking each table what they had ordered.When food arrived my teriyaki salmon plate was BARELY warm. While my wife's plate was so hot it was as if it was just removed from a microwave. Took another 20 minutes to get a soda. Us and 2 other tables all had to put our hands up to catch the attention of the wait staff. Just seemed like chaos.Won't be returning
