T K Pizza And Pasta - Tehachapi

We were staying in Tehachapi for the night and needed somewhere quick and convenient to eat. TK was just down the road from our hotel, so we walked down there for dinner. From the outside the restaurant was bustling, so we had high hopes. Oh dear. Walking in we were immersed in the smell of cooking oil, but the menu looked promising so we sat down. We chose our food and ordered at the counter. I chose a medium Aloha BBQ pizza, a choice I'd later pay the price for. After a very long wait our pasta arrived. After an even longer wait our pizzas arrived. We even had to go up to the counter to enquire about where our food was. Our discomfort was not helped by the uncomfortable benches and metal tables. When it did arrive though I felt a huge sense of relief being starving from the long trip, I would've eaten anything. But this faded upon closer inspection of the pizza. I'm very experienced in eating unhealthy food, but this pizza was a new low for me. It was smothered in bacon, so much so that if you tried to pick up a slice the toppings would simply flop off. I also felt it was excessively burnt in places. I haven't even mentioned the salt content yet. I woke up in the middle of the night with dehydration. Moving onto death valley the next day, this was the last thing I needed. My pizza was just very unhealthy and not very nice. Perhaps other dishes are nicer, but I doubt they're much healthier. All I can say is that the quantity of food was great for $20. This unfortunately doesn't make this place any healthier. With only a Burger King next door, we felt we had no option but to dine at TK. I'm more than happy to eat an unhealthy meal if it's tasty. But this was not the case. I was disappointed, but I know that this place has the potential to make some great food, as it is clearly a popular place in the local community. I would just add, however, that I cannot tolerate the single use plastic cups they provided us with. In such a stunning landscape, we must appreciate our surroundings, and single use plastic cups are completely unnecessary.

Awesome pizza with great crust and generous toppings. Lasagna was also really good! Great beer selection and atmosphere..A gem!

Great pizza. Would prefer more comfortable seating.

This pizza the the Mediterranean pizza is amazing it is a messy pizza though so u know oils in it but delicious next time time I'll snap a picture thank u for a great slice

Cesar salad was a little on the small side. Small should have been bigger than a dinner salad, I would think.
