Best

The Crystal Palace is such a family friendly entertainment, dance, and food extravaganza! I love the atmosphere. The service is great, too much food (excellent though). Can't wait...

Worst

Just returned from dinner and show at CP in Bako. Have been there many times and loved it but this was the worst service, both server and hostess. And let's include the kitchen....

Not such a good night at CP 8/12/2011

Just returned from dinner and show at CP in Bako. Have been there many times and loved it but this was the worst service, both server and hostess. And let's include the kitchen. Ran out of bread by 7:15 which according to hostess was because they had two large parties. Now when I have a dinner party I know how many are coming and buy accordingly. Waited almost an hour for a filet mignon salad. Had to ask for extra dressing twice. Water glass was completely empty before waitress appeared to refill it. Just bad service. Was told it wasn't her fault but I can assure you and her that the tip reflected it and that is her fault. Show was not as good as in the past. We were finally given 'biscuits' as in breakfast food at about 8:50 pm. Did not charge us for show which was some consolation. Seemed rushed. Just a soso night at Crystal Palace. more

bad employee treatment 12/6/2010

Good service and very amiable people but the manager treat her employees very poorly. Unfortunately I over heard when the manager yelled badly at her employee. I'm not too sure what this young lady had done but I'm very sure that no one deserves to be treated or yelled at the way she did.. I hope she dosent do the same to the rest of her employees. more

Sunday brunch is delicious, inexpensive and family friendly 10/30/2007

Last Sunday my wife and I enjoyed an exceptional buffet served with warm hospitality. We highly recommend brunch especially at the bargain price, including tip, of $25 per person. All the food was perfect! Six stations included (1) salad/fruit, (2) breakfast, (3) meat, (4) omelet, (5) waffle and (6) desert. Buffet presentation, quality and service were the best we have ever experienced. Sunday buffet is served from 9:30am to 2:30pm. We arrived at 11:30am and got seated within 10 minutes without a reservation. Tables surrounded the performance area with the food stations at the lowest level next to the stage. The room is surrounded by display cases of memorabilia. Signed photographs cover most walls. On the way out we enjoyed a walk looking over the tasteful collection as we remembered Buck’s varied career. Everything we tried at the buffet was fresh from the kitchen, cooked perfectly and tasted great. I tried the fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, chicken friend steak, gravy with biscuits and enchiladas from the salad and breakfast stations. My wife’s waffle was cooked perfectly and delicious. Service staff and cooks continuously monitored and attended to the modest size service pans of fresh warm food. Our waiter Rudolph came by frequently to keep our drinks filled. Two meat carvers sliced ham, beef and turkey. A chef cooked omelets to order. Ice cream with toppings was included at the waffle station. The desert station offered hot apple or peach cobbler, cakes, cookies and more. My favorite was the pecan cinnamon rolls which reminded me of my grandmother’s Sunday feasts. The kids were enjoying their Sunday brunch along with their entire family. Even at twice the price, my wife and I agree, this brunch is a special treat and we will return for more. more

For a great country music atmosphere, go here! 6/27/2006

I came to the Crystal Palace for brunch a couple of weeks ago. I hadn't been here before and was quite impressed by the service and the history behind it. The Crystal Palace has become an important part of the country scene because it was built by Buck Owens and Buck also had the Bakersfield sign moved by the Crystal Palace, otherwise the sign would have been destroyed but Buck Owens saved it. Not only that, but many concerts and events have been held at the Crystal Palace and Buck's memory will live on there forever. Besides of the stories the Crystal Palace holds, the food is good, the atmosphere casual and the service is rated A+ by me! If you're planing on going to the Crystal Palace, here is some information that may be helpful: RESTAURANT HOURS: Dinner 5PM (Tuesday - Saturday) Brunch 9:30AM - 2PM (Sunday) CLOSED Sunday evenings and all day Monday except for concerts.
