Super friendly. We were quickly greeted and seated by the owner Damon. Wine selection is impressive. It continues to change over the years , always replacing a selection with a better one. We chose the whipped feta appetizer. Delicious and just the right amount for 4 people to share. I was so happy to see their lemon chicken orzo soup on the specials menus. Added that to a chicken pesto, apple, & Brie panini and my evening was perfect. Excellent food, excellent service, always a treat to visit Camp 4 in downtown Modesto.

The freshest ingredients available are used in our classic Northern Italian recipes. We only use fresh seasonal fish -- never frozen. Our classical bolognese sauce is a favorite in the community.

Overall fine experience with lovely folks hosting and waiting tables who gave us plenty of room for conversation without anyone too close. Cal's service was spot on despite the fact that he was quite busy, and we loved having attention from Rita, the host. Please let Rainbird know about their great staff. The food was exactly what we wanted and was prepared with obvious care.

We did a Sunday afternoon date day for the first time here. Bistro 120 didn't disappoint. Both of our meals were delicious. My wife had the BLTA sandwich and I had the spicy chicken sandwich. They were both excellent! Our server was also very nice and gave great service.

Max,'s is known for their breads, but the food is also excellent. Always have the sweet potato fries. Holiday lunch for work team. Sat in the backroom, so not quite as noisy. Shannon was our server and did an excellent job!!!!

Brazilian Steakhouse
Bakersfield
About the restaurant
Churrasco has three centuries of tradition in the vast plains of the southernmost region of Brazil. Gauchos would prepare a feast for their family and friends by slow roasting various cuts of meat from each of their herd over an open flame pit. They offered to each family and friend, the best of the Gaucho’s herd, where they carved the meats at each table in a show of skill and gift giving.

Located in Bakersfield’s Southwest neighborhood, Flame & Fire Brazilian Steakhouse is a modern experience into Brazil’s traditional churrascaria, featuring the rodizio style of carved meats table side, along with our exquisite market table. This is the third restaurant to Flame & Fire Brazilian Steakhouse, with two other locations in Roseville and Folsom California. Established in Roseville in 2014, we are proud to share with you the culture of great food and warm hospitality.

BOM APETITE!

Our expectations were surpassed. Upon arriving the hostess opened the door for us. We were seated at our table within minutes of arriving. The table was decorated with rose petals and a greeting card with wonderful anniversary wishes. The food was amazing, the meat cuts were phenomenal. Everyone was friendly and so welcoming. Definitely going back!!
