Ridgecrest

Farris' Italian Gardens

It's no joke - the best bar in Ridgecrest when selection and quality are the priorities is inside a quiet little restaurant. An array of call drinks - anejo tequilas, single-malt Scotches, fine wines and beers, etc. - are poured by a skilled staff. Even the "cheap" drinks are good - the Long Island Iced Tea is smooth as velvet.
