Belly Bombz Kitchen - Artesia

Originally strange front personnel/worship. We actually had a reservation that we made (although at short notice), but the waitress with blond hair told us her manager was not there to check on the OpenTable reservations. We were placed on the waiting list instead. Doesn't anyone have responsibility on a busy Friday night? Very questionable. Even when we sat in the bar that was open, she said we couldn't, but then the bartender said it was open. Weird. I know this as 2/5 stars, because we had such a disgusting experience by not honoring our reservation and then say we can't sit at the bar when we finally clear. Otherwise, food and bartender were good.

For some reason, this place surprises me every time I go there and it is not in a good way. The first few times I went there was nothing but bad service. When I arrived there, they let me put my name on their waiter list and many tables will be open. I was also the first one on the waiter list, but I had to wait an hour until they go through the waiter list and put people on their tables. I had made a reservation from this app at 6:45 a.m. and as I arrived there, apparently they did some construction there, but the strange thing was that their shield at the door noticed “closed Monday-tuesday due to the small construction.” It was Thursday when I made my reservation so now for me, it seems as if their service and communication is low quality. I never see myself coming back to this place.

We slept for Happy Hour. Really nice specials. It would be nice if it was a complete service bar, but the Ochsenschwanz-Fries are forever a fave.

We had a party of 4 and everyone enjoyed their meal. Awesome flavors with perfect portion sizes and well priced. A place to return to when in the area.

Love their appetizer selection! The spicy salmon tartare was a great find!
