I have lived in this neighborhood for over 27 years and for some reason tonight was the first night I've had dinner here. The chicken Shawarma and the chicken kebab plate was delicious. This will now be my regular spot highly highly recommend. read more

California Fresh - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First time visit after passing by thousands of times. We tried the chicken kebab and a Greek salad. The kebab was pretty flavorful, but the chicken was very dry. Came with a side of rice and salad, which were fine... Nothing special. We'll have to report back later on the Greek salad because it will be eaten the following day: The owner was sweet and gave us a small piece of coffee cake to try and it was delicious. They look like they have a great selection of baked goods. I really want to support a small local business in the neighborhood and will definitely go back and try something else again. Nice to have a parking lot in the back. read more

I live very close by and can say California Fresh is always consistently really good and the service is always very fast. It reminds me a lot of Tender Greens in that they have many different types of proteins that you can choose from and then different types of delivery methods whether it be on a plate, in a bowl, or in a sandwich. They have tables to dine in, but most people choose to go, which is usually our choice as well. They have a large menu to choose from and a medium size parking lot attached so parking is free and easy. For our most recent meal, we chose the White Fish Plate with two sides, spiced Cajun style, and also the Turkey and Avocado Panini. Between the two the plate was my favorite because the fish was a large sized portion and cooked perfectly. The Panini was good, but not the traditional Italian type of Panini. I wish it would have baguette bread instead of the bread they serve. Overall really quick and convenient option in Westwood and I definitely would recommend and plan to be back many times in the future. read more

I made a catering order for a group event at UCLA. The food was fresh and delicious (wraps, Mediterranean plate, dessert platter, pasta salad). Everything was prepared and ready to go at pick up time. The owner was super helpful in creating a menu that fits within my budget. Highly recommend for eat in and catering. read more

Super fresh and tasty! We got the Greek chicken salad- the dressing is tangy, veggies are crisp and the side of bread was delicious. If we lived closer we would eat here all the time! read more

California Fresh - Chicken Shawarma Plate - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Parking is very convenient, since its in the back. My friends and I came over to meet since I was craving for pizza and hummus, and this was the most convenient location for me out in the West Side. One thing to notice is to bring a jacket since it is pretty chilly here and the place aroma is pretty much like a deli feel with several tables. Most utensils are available and pretty much self-service for setting up the table. I forgot to add the free drink but there is that option on Yelp! We got to eat the the grilled chicken kabob hummus plate and two different pizzas ( buffalo chicken and pepperoni) that were medium size and delicious. Would come back to eat here for a quick take-out. read more

Awe man. How about yall tell me what rating I should give this place. A few weeks ago, I found myself walking down Westwood Blvd after a very expensive eye exam. Lots of Thai, and other places but I happened to glance across the road and spotted California Fresh. Could this be the California Fresh I had missed for so long after they left Downtown LA waaaay back in 2013? I had to find out. The restaurant had a few customers, I knew exactly what I wanted - and without incident I picked my favorite medi combo plate... grilled salmon, rice and chopped salad with hummus and pita. But would it be the same taste I missed for over a decade? Yes. The service was amazing, the food hot, fresh baked pita bread warmed to perfection. I ate it so fast - I gave plenty of thought to reordering another plate to go. I was truly happy to have California Fresh back in my life, so imagine how happy I was driving around two weeks later and discovering I was only a block or two away. I found parking. Went in through the back door walked up to the counter with bright eyes, bushy tale and a hunger for California Fresh you wouldn't believe. But.... As soon as the woman behind the counter took a look at me her face dropped to an uncomfortable frown. She didn't even say hi. When I said hi, her response was "is this for here or to go?" I immediately felt unwelcomed. But I figured oh well, this is Westwood and she probably thinks she has more money than me and I'm just a pion here to chase away her customers. I can't say I was dressed for the ballroom but I wasn't in gang attire either. But anywho. I tried to explain to her how happy I was to have found Cal Fresh to break the ice, and she cracked a smile For a bit - so I let her convince me to buy some bagel bites instead of baclavara. Or what ever that sweet sticky stuff is called. But just then. I realized I had left my wallet in the car. No biggie - I'll be right back. My wallet was no where to be found. But I was determined to fill my hot mouth with Salmon. It's so delish and grilled to perfection. The spices, the rice and the salad and hummus dip! OMG. Took me about 10 minutes to fiddle around on the phone with the banks to transfer money to Apple Pay. But I did. And I marched right back in there to finish my purchase. This time again as soon as the lady saw me her face turned to disgust. I'm thinking damn. Is there bird poop on my face? So I ask if she's the owner - and she says yes... and I can tell cuz only owners don't care if they lose $40. Although most would never let an employee get away with that. So she rings me up. I'm like. Whatever ...I go fill a soda and sit down. Not 10 seconds she comes and presents me with a plate. Plops it down to show me just how little she cares I'm there. I mean no sense of hospitality, care. And look at the plate. I was taken a back. First my mind is thinking - where the hell did she get this plate from? Is this her lunch? I bring it up and she tells me although I didn't pay, and left the restaurant, they already started making the food so here it is. Hmmm. That's odd. And already red flag #2. Now I like to give everyone 3 chances. So I let her convince me to at least try it. But then I realized hey! There's no Pita bread. And no vegetables. I sware I don't know whose plate this was but it wasn't mine. I pulled up the photo. She probably didn't expect that. But as a published food critic for over 15 years and over 100k food photos... lady please. "That's not even the same rice" I said - that's the only rice we have she replied. I thought I was in the gosh darn twighlight zone. Look at that hummus I thought it myself... something ain't right. Has this place been over taken by aliens? I was hungry so I tried the salmon. It tasted okay. But it was only grilled in one side - the underbelly was soft and cold and steamed up from the plastic plate... it wasn't sitting on a bed of rice, keeping it warm, and soaking up its flavor - NO... it was drab. I tried the pita bread. It too was cold. At that point I just got grossed out. Was this food from the garbage? I was like. Yo. I'm out of here. I got in my $45000 car and was about to take off when an elderly man came out to apologize and offer my money back. He also brought me a sweet desert. The desert was so good.... I almost want to go back. But how can I? The owner hates me for no reason. So I guess this will be my last memory of California Fresh. I may not go back but if they would have kept their word and refunded. I would have left a far better review. I think it was sweet he came out. And it's never my intention to harm a business. But integrity is everything. Over all I would still recommend the salmon plate. As long as she ain't making it. The whole time she was looking down her nose at me. Absolutely my pet peeve. Seeing we all have the same Olive Oil in our veins. read more

This place never disappoints! The food is always fresh, great tasting, and comes out fast. My kids love the pizza, but from the sandwiches and pasta to the fish... I have never ordered something that I didn't like. The bread is baked fresh and don't get me started on the desserts. They have freshly baked desserts that you can never go wrong ordering. This place has been around for a long time, is family owned, and has a parking lot (rare in that area). You can't ask for more. Give this place a try! read more

After years of living walking distance, I finally tried California Fresh after reading the positive Yelp reviews. I placed my order online and it was ready when I came to pick up. I was delighted to see that the chicken kabob plate ($12.50) came with two skewers. Most places around here charge more and only give you one skewer. It came with rice, Israeli salad (chopped tomatoes and cucumbers), hummus and pita. The kabobs were fairly standard, with tomatoes and onions. They bake their own pita, which definitely made eating the hummus more enjoyable. My husband got the Moroccan Spicy Whitefish which wasn't that spicy - two pieces of fish in a tomato sauce with garbanzo beans, carrots, bell peppers, and cilantro on top of a bed of rice. They also have salads, paninis, wraps, bowls, pizzas and pastas. It's a casual little neighborhood spot that's a lot less busy than CCC. They don't have indoor dining right now, but do have a few tables outside. I'm bumping it up to four stars, thanks to fresh baked pita, hummus and two skewers (I'm always looking for a big bang for my buck). Small parking lot in back. read more

Covid Take Out Review LOVE IT!!!! So far we have tried a few types of pizzas (loved the chicken pesto) - their cheese and dough is amazing. I also tried their grilled salmon with rice and israeli salad - it was so good. So far nothing has been disappointing and I have so many other things I want to try out. It's easy to order - you can order on their website or call it in. It usually takes 15 minutes and you are good to go. Easy parking with a nice size lot behind the restaurant. Currently, there is no indoor dining but the other day I saw a few tables outside. They also have a few specials during this pandemic for family meals - we haven't tried it yet but plan to. I highly recommend you check this place out. read more

I love this family owned spot!!!! The food is so fresh, prices are great and the menu is extensive! They have some of my favorite salads in town. Portion sizes are huge and I love that you can top them with grilled chicken, salmon or whitefish which are all made to order and super fresh. I love a heaping salad and California fresh has a great variety of them. The Chinese Chicken and Greek are always a hit. The chicken kebab and shawarma plates are also delicious. Their hummus is made fresh and is so fluffy and pairs perfectly with the pita. They also offer healthy bowls, pastas, pizza and paninis. There's really something for everyone on the menu and it's all fairly fresh and nutritious. They have a small parking lot on the side of the restaurant and plenty of outdoor seating. One of my favorite lunch spots in Westwood when I'm feeling like something healthy but still delicious. read more

I used to work a couple blocks away and come here for lunch almost daily. For me it was always either California fresh or California Chicken Cafe located right across the street. Both restaurants are good but in different ways. Though the interior at CA Fresh is quite outdated, there is something just special about it that keeps customers coming back. And even though I do not work around there anymore I keep going back for those salads, baguettes and grilled seafood plates. Let's be honest though, no no matter how nostalgic I am, their prices is a big selling point. If I don't feel like going out to a bigger restaurant then CA Grill is a very good option for grabbing a quick lunch that I know will be very satisfying . The menu is quite simple. You choose proteins and then sides that you want to come along with it. Fish, chicken, meat, pizza, salads, hummus, etc. I'm taking off one star for that interior. It will have to be updated eventually. Right now it feels like a Mexican high school cafeteria but I would still recommend California Grill as a decent lunch spot any day. read more

I can't believe this is my first visit to California Fresh Cafe! The food is so delicious and the place is hopping. Went in at random on a Friday just before the lunch rush. Had a VERY yummy antioxidant salad with salmon. As the name of the restaurant implies, everything was very fresh and tasty. I went home with some hummus that smelled too good to pass up. Weill definitely return! read more

Long story short, give this place a go! The staff was VERY friendly and gave great recommendations. The portions were amazing for the price and I enjoyed the entire meal. My partner and I both got the chicken kabab plate and the entire time we were eating we were commenting on how great and fresh everything was. The owner(?)/manager(?) came out during our meal and gave us a small slice of honey cake on the house, which really hit the spot! We both give two thumbs up and will be putting this place into our rotation. read more

California Fresh has something for everyone including salads, panini, wraps, pizza, pasta and entrees. I had the white fish plate with roasted potatoes and steamed vegetables. Delicious. My mother had a large lentil soup. Hearty and good. All meals come with a basket of delicious bread. I can make a meal with just the bread alone it's so good. I've had a small vegetarian pizza before and it was the right size for one person. I even had leftovers. I've not been too thrilled with their chicken kebabs plate. The chicken was very dry. Try their daily freshly prepared desserts. Yum! read more

I don't know what's happening in the pizza business, but a mushroom pizza is suddenly the same price as a meat lovers pizza? Why is it so expensive, especially when you see this is a soggy pizza with barely any sauce or mushrooms. I didn't order a garlic pizza with a few mushrooms. Not to mention they the woman wasn't very nice, the gentleman cooking was very helpful. Lastly, they didn't offer me anything to put on the pizza like red pepper flakes or Parmesan cheese. This purchase was for a memorial service and I just couldn't bring it looking so terrible. Very disappointed with this business! How on earth do they have so many stars on this app, unless they were for the previous owners read more
