It was ok. The filet and lobster was moderately tasty with mushy and flavorless vegetables but the escargot appetizer was not good at all. It had a strange thick sauce and was nothing like traditional escargot. The wedge salad had shredded cheese on it and no tomatoes which is not traditional. The room is also far too dark as the menu was barely readable. For the money there are better choices in town.
Do you want to go back in time? That’s exactly what walking into KC Steak House feels like to me. The moment you step inside, you’re transported. Dark wood. Worn leather. A fireplace that feels like it’s been burning since the 1950s—and probably has. It’s nostalgia in its purest form. Sitting at the bar feels like you wandered onto the set of a Martin Scorsese film. The atmosphere is mature, relaxed, and confident—never loud, never rushed—often elevated by local musicians quietly owning the room with live vocals or an instrument played just right. Now, the food. Let’s be clear: you don’t come here to eat plants. Yes, there’s a salad on the menu—because it has to be. But you come here for the meat. And let me tell you something… they have the meat. I order my steak medium rare with a Pittsburgh-style char, and it is flawless every single time. My wife adds melted blue cheese to hers—also perfect. No excuses. No off nights. Just consistency and execution the way a steakhouse is supposed to do it. They do offer other options—pasta, a few alternatives my wife likes to explore—but let’s not kid ourselves. I didn’t come here for anything else. I came for the steak. Period. And here’s what truly makes this place special: the service. The women behind the bar. The servers—especially Sammy—who somehow make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first visit. You’re never forgotten. Never rushed. Never ignored. That level of care is what separates KC Steak House from everywhere else pretending to do it better. As a bonus, if you know to ask, there’s even a hidden speakeasy tucked away—just another reminder that this place understands experience, not just food. I don’t care what the bill is. Going back in time is worth the price of admission.
Happy Holidays, I want to give a personal "THANK YOU" to our Host/Server/Bartender PAIGE!!! Our company just held our CHRISTMAS Party here and let me tell you, she was above OUTSTANDING. She handled herself very professional and very fluid, she went above and beyond, not only was she noticed by many people in attendance, she was an uplift to the experience by her generous and kind service. Paige is what you would call a light for your business, a great asset to have on the team. Also the food was good(prefixed dinner with a couple options, I only would like to add the option to order my steak to my preference), the atmosphere was lighted up, from decorations to the live music that was being played. Great time overall.
We had a wonderful experience celebrating our Wedding Anniversary. We were promptly greeted with a smile and seated within a few minutes. Service was out standing! The food was fabulous! The steak was cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed the shrimp & fettuccine. Our dinner ended with a palate pleasing pumpkin cheesecake for dessert. It was delicious! First time customers and looking forward to making KC Steak House one of our favorite family's steakhouse restaurant. Highly recommended for those special occasions.
Ok. We felt like we walked into a Mafia hot spot! Such a cool vibe! Dimly lit atmosphere reveals unique items like a sunken bar and wagon wheel light fixtures! Food was amazing from start to finish. The service st this place was spot on. Everyone of the wait staff offered assistance from drink refills to food service! This is a must do place when your in Bakersfield! Top of the top restaurant!
