  I was told that should I ever make it to Bakersfield that I should try Basque food. So after visiting a museum in Bakersfield I used Google maps to find Chalet Basque. The app shows good ratings, close by and open. I was glad I did. This restaurant has good atmosphere great food and great s service.

  Great dining experience. Some items are gluten free. Skip the chicken and fries if you're celiac. Very tasty but possible cross contamination with the fryer. Soup and lamb was delicious.
