Good service, great staff, pleasant atmosphere and a cool owner. I had some great evenings there. My first stop whenever I'll find myself in Ridgecrest again. Thanks for the time

It’s hard for me to rave about a steak I didn’t cook myself but I’m telling you this was bomb!! I asked for it rare and actually got it rare. Beautiful cut of meat (met their statement in the menu about hand picking their cuts, I believe that!), all sides fantastic!!! Definitely go here if you’re into great good, cold beer and Cornhole!!

Nice comfy atmosphere in the bar. We ordered a French dip, a buffalo wing, and a bacon cheeseburger with Irish Nachos for dinner. They are delicious! And the food portions are big! Highly recommended!

This is the 1st time I visited this bar and grill. The handmade pizza is a standout—perfectly crisp crust, fresh toppings, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. It’s easily one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a minute. And don’t miss the wings—crispy, juicy, and tossed in a variety of bold sauces. Whether you’re into classic buffalo or something a bit spicier, they’ve nailed the flavor and texture. Great food, a relaxed vibe, and friendly service—this place is well worth the visit.

We came from Poland and we are enchanted- great food, delicious burgers, amazing atmosphere, great service and a lovely dog

Prime rib was some of the best steak I’ve had great portions had lunch here came back for dinner and ordered the same thing. Definitely a place to come and have a little fun R&R ( rest and recovery) had a few drinks bartenders were very restful and attentive.

Was in town for work and stopped in on a Thursday evening. This was a cool place with a good atmosphere and nice cold drinks. We did not eat but the food looked great, definitely gonna try the food next time im in town. Overall 5 stars from me

We went in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere. It was very welcoming and enjoyable. The food and drinks were amazing. The customer service was beyond exceptional and a welcome change to what we have been experiencing of late. My new favorite place for food. We will definitely be going back .

The food here was very very good. We had a buffalo chicken flat bread and it had fresh chicken breast the sauce and flavor were one of the best we've had! The pastrami sandwiches were very good as well. Premium pastrami. The owner checked on us and made sure everything was good. Great atmosphere and the tap beer is very cold. Will definitely be back! $10-$20. If you are drinking alcohol

The Smoker Burger is high among the best burgers I have ever had. I was in town for a few days and had I had it the first day I would have come back everyday for it.

Excellent find!!! Literally everything the 4 of us ordered was great. Chicken salad on point. Rueben Sandwich was thick cut and full of flavor, rye bread was very fresh and full of flavor. Bbq chicken sandwich special was fantastic. Forgot to take pics so sorry for lack of that. The owners dog is a sweetie as well.

We came here 2 days in a row. 1st night we had pastrami burgers, wings and fries. 2nd night was steak night. Both meals were on point, everything from the burgers to the steak, mac&cheese, wings were soooo good. On top of that the owener made sure we were comfortable and our servers were the best.Rachel and Kyanne were so much fun. They made us laugh every time they came to our table, this made our night. Best place in Ridgecrest. 10 out of 10

A great place for a bite to eat and to watch the game! They had multiple large TVs above the bar, and more around the restaurant area which was perfect for watching the football game. Also the bartender was wicked nice, which was awesome on my first weekend in town

Being tourists in a strange location. We were a little dubious about going into local bars How wrong could we have been Met the lovely owner and his wonderful dog Drink and food was outstanding If your passing through as tourists we would definitely recommend the patriot Thanks for your incredibly warm welcome

I was in town for work and wanted to watch a game somewhere with good food. It was taco Tuesday. Great tacos at $3 a piece. I had 5 and a side salad. DELICIOUS! I went in for the wings, which i hear arw outstanding, but the tacos were awesome! Great beer selection and plenty of tv's to catch a game or whatever you choose. When im back in town im definately stopping again!

Cool spot to have lunch on the way home from Alabama Hills. The Reuben Sandwich was AMAZING … thick cut pastrami on an awesome rye bread! A must stop!

Kate Sparks

Traveling through with my husband and young kiddos. The owner and staff were very welcoming. Our server made great drinks, the menu is comfort American food and just what you want on a road trip, and you could tell the night life offered would be worth it if you didn’t have kids and were sticking around for the night. If you’re making a trek on the 395 from SD, we recommend this as a pitstop for sure.

This was a surprising delight. They were very accommodating in taking our large group last minute after my graduation. The staff was very friendly and worked very hard to help us. They had a variety of food and their burgers were especially delicious. Although it didn't look like much on the outside, the Patriot Bar & Grill was a nice environment with an appetizing menu. Whenever we're in town next, we will definitely be returning.

Old Triple T's finally reopened after shutting down during the pandemic. Initially, understaffed I thought because of the long wait for service. Much better now with more staffing. They serve hot meals but only from seven to eight at night; hopefully that will expand as they get more business. Had a couple of bands play recently that were pretty entertaining. Back room has pool tables. No wifi though, but still a nice place to hang out for a while.

Ordered a shared starter and pizzas. After 35 minutes and no food yet delivered I asked the waiter to make sure our starter came like 5-10 minutes before the pizzas. 5 minutes after she came with both starter and pizzas at once… In general the service is so slow that I won’t recommend the place.

Felt robbed at their first annual rally when bike show awards were announced and were given to the friend of the event staff in best of show and best bagger fellow competitors and spectators were in awe when announced will be my first and last time bummer

We did not dine here so I won’t leave a review on the food but we attended a concert here and in my whole adult life I have never had a worse experience. I had to bus my own table and get my own drinks after paying over $800 for a VIP table and cocktail service. They sold me a VIP TABLE and then had people STANDING IN FRONT OF US for the whole 45 minutes of a bullshit concert! The sound was absolutely terrible and after 1 song the band got off stage because the feedback was so bad. I cannot fathom charging that money and not providing and actual show and service! Absolutely disgusting.
