    This place is SO much fun on Saturday night! Danced to the Stampede band and the entire place was having so much fun! If we lived in Bakersfield we would come every week for dinner!

    Friendly, helpful young woman taking phone reservations. Helpful confirmations via e-mail. Great table for 10 on the dance floor. Excellent service! Very good food, at very reasonable prices! Live music from 6:30 PM until 10:00 PM, with no cover charge, or minimum drink order. Great house band! Fun to watch line dancers. The Band Leader came to our table, and asked who we were, then asked me to come on stage to talk about the Sons of Union Veterans for he Cvil War, which I happily did, to respectful applause from the audience. HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH! Overall--extremely happy, and hopeful that the Crystal Palace continues, as is, far into the future. Sincerely, Dean Smith, Commander Gen. W. S. Rosecrans Camp No. 2, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War Los Angeles, CA

    The food and entertainment were great. Johnny Owen's and the Bakersfield Sound were playing and brought out many good memories of my mom.

    We had the absolute best experience! It was my husband's birthday and our first time there. The service was awesome, we always had anything we needed, and the entertainment was very talented and enjoyable! We've heard what we hope are rumors about this place closing its doors, and hope this is not true! That would absolutely be a huge loss for everyone.
