Sizzler - For 35 dollars I'm seriously disappointed with the trash - Steakhouses Near Me - Chatsworth, California

This place opened up recently. Hubby & I came here during the heat wave on a Fri early evening. We were hoping to get some "cool" AC but it ended up being "hot" ac :-( I'm not a big fan of chains but figured it's new, why not. BTW, it's my first time to ever try Sizzler in my life so I wasn't sure what to expect. Walk in, pay at the entrance, find a seat, food is served or salad bar. Hubby ordered the tri tip meal & a salad. I decided to try the grilled salmon w/cilantro lime rice. I took a bite of Hubby's trip tip and no comments. My salmon wasn't too bad. As we ate, it got hotter inside the restaurant. Hubby asked the waiter: "Don't you need to keep this place cool so your salad can remain as fresh as possible?" Waiter: "Sir, the AC is on but we're not sure why it's not cold?" I noticed customers came to Sizzler not for the meat nor the entree but for the salad bar. Some just ate fried chicken & the tacos just to get the worth of it. Funny conversations happened at the entrance: "I thought it was a sit down restaurant?" "It is but you pay first!" "Sir you can't just sit down as you need to pay first before finding a seat." read more

Sizzler - Steakhouses Near Me - Chatsworth, California

My nephews and I ate here, and I was not please with my steak at all. I asked for well done and my steak was really really pink inside to where I couldn't and did not want to eat it due to me having a sensitive stomach, but paying 50$ for my meal and my 2 nephews meals as well I better take at least a bite, right? Well Lol, I did and it did not taste like an average sizzler steak, just by one bite, and was really greasy, my nephew said his steaks was not good neither, my other nephew had fried shrimp and fries and said it was very good. I gave 3 stars because my loaded bake potato was the only very good thing!! read more

Portion sizes are this location are a joke. I realize that business is slow during Covid, but serving undersized food won't help you keep the customers you have. The baked potatoes are already the smallest I've ever seen, and to receive a chicken breast that's smaller than the tiny potato was a real surprise! And don't bother asking for a side of A1 - you get a 2oz container that is 1/10th full. Please try harder. read more

Sizzler - Italian Herb Chicken - Steakhouses Near Me - Chatsworth, California

The business model of a Sizzler was always strange to me. It is the merging of a steak and lobster restaurant with the ordering procedure of a Carl's Jr. or the 90s when they had those salad bars. You walk in to this Sizzler and immediately are greeted with a set of cash registers and the menu on the wall and printed and posted below the cash registers. The seats are self seating as they are not busy, and assigned when it gets crowded. Once you sit down, the server brings your food, or you help yourself to the salad bar and drinks depending on what you ordered. The food itself is ok. The prices are definitely high for what you get. An entree plus the all you can eat salad bar and a beverage with tip will cost a single person over $30 most of the time. A "plus one" star to the albondigas soup (latino meatball soup) which has replaced the clam chowder as my favorite in the salad bar. My latino friend always calls it the "Al Bundy" soup. The potato salad and the imitation crab meat salads, although reformulated are old favorites on the salad bar menu. Sad to see some experimental dishes go like the "Kale Caesar Salad", and the iced coffee. From the times I've visited, however, I can say the salad bar area always looks clean, the greens always look fresh and washed, and the items are well stocked. Sometimes the carnitas look a little dry, but I guess it is the nature of that specific dish. Regarding the service, it is ok, and they try. However, they do make McDonald's level mistakes. For example, they made iced tea using coffee. How does one mistake tea leaves with coffee grinds? This is not exactly a bad thing, but for someone who was expecting tea, this is a surprise. (It's actually pretty good coffee by the way.) You also see from other yelpers that sometimes there is food still on the clean dishes and the bathroom isn't the most presentable of places. That being said, the servers are always friendly, they make sure your dirty and empty plates are removed, and make sure to their best ability you are happy and well supplied with cheese toast and dinner rolls. read more

I wish yelp provided 0 stars! Your better off dinning at a hospital than this sizzler location ! Worst customer service I have encountered! Even the manager himself was unprofessional and the waitress she gave nothing but attitude! Never have I been disappointed at a restaurant service until today when I stopped by this location. And to top it off the salad bar was tasteless. This sizzler location doesn't know nothing about customer service which is sooo sad! read more

Food is delicious and service is the best in town . The ambience is nice too . I'll keep coming back .

Food is as you expect, it's a paired down salad bar from their hay day; but the big problem is they have no air conditioning for a few weeks now, 100+ degree day and it's hotter inside. Mgt should buy a big fan or something while it's out, it's mesierable in here, I forgot it was broken my last visit a week ago,but never coming back until he winter. It's not acceptable to charge their prices ($40 for lunch for me and 1 kid) and they can't afford to fix the A/C. read more

I moved out of state and haven't been to Sizzler for over 10 years. It is as delicious as I remembered! Service was fast and friendly read more

Terrible. Service is extremely slow there is only 1 waitress in the whole place. I understand owner is trying to cut corners but not a smart way to run business. Salad bar is bad wings were dry & burnt maybe change oil more often. Clam chowder is more like potato chowder. read more

I had gone to Sizzler in Van Nuys CA many times & was happy. My senior citizen friends decided to go to sizzler, but this time in the Chatsworth, CA location, since it was closer to them. They charged each individual $18+ for a salad bar, stated they don't have the senior lunches. ( I check the Google and seemed that every Sizzler had it except them)! The salad bar was small not much food and the choices were very limited. Each time we had to ask the manager for a new plate because they were not there by the food as other sizzlers are. The senior menu in other Sizzler's has small stake, bake potato, drink & a one time fill up salad bowl for $12.99. here we paid $18 for just salad. read more

I grew up and have many fond memories of family dinners at Sizzler. Back in the day it was the spot lol! Graduation-Sizzler, Birthday-Sizzler, Holidays and special occasions-Sizzler! I remember it being a treat to go, but nowadays with so many specials, promos and good deals you don't have to wait for a special occasion. I came last week and didn't have the best experience. The trays were near empty and the Mac and cheese was dried and crusted! What's worse is that it was during the week and the trays were not being filled. I was upset that I spent extra for it. I also had a misunderstanding and was overcharged. I told my fiancée that i would NEVER come back to this location again. So tonight , Friday Nov 2nd We decided to came back for dinner and give this place a second chance. Glad I did because we had the best experience and it's all thanks to Maria! If it wasn't for MARIA I was about to never come back to this Sizzler location and hit you with that one star review. It's crazy how you can give a place a second chance and have it completely turn around and be one of the best dinners and it's all thanks to our waitress Maria. She went above and beyond to rectify a mistake, apologized on the restaurants behalf and made sure we were taken care of the entire meal. She was lovely, had a positive attitude and simultaneously took care of several tables all while having a smile! As I love to say, but don't always get to say it-Sizzler is LUCKY to have someone like Maria! We will definitely be back only to this location. read more

I'm super upset because the food was over cooked and i spent 98 dollars. My fried shrimp was too hard and crunchy like a rock, the grilled skewer taste like burn, and the bacon in my loaded potatoes was hard like rocks. We asked for medium rare burger and it was well done. The patty on the burger was charbroiled didn't look burned but taste like actual burn from the char. I know the difference between char broiled and the taste of burn, I told my Waitress but I don't think she cared. Her service was nonchalant, she went and told the manager, he stood up, i thought he was coming over and he looked at me and turned away like he had no care in the world. I could tell he had no customer service or care for customers. I will never go back there ever again.. read more

Nice friendly staff and the place is clean. But the food is not the same pre-pandemic. For $17.99 a person there's very little variety. They no longer have chicken wings and serve chicken nuggets and bite size corn dogs. Their taco was super salty and the pasta was over cooked. For this price I was better off going to McDonald's for the same chicken nuggets. read more

It's open! I ordered the $10.99 8oz steak. Came med rare as ordered. It came with cheesy bread and baked potato. The potato came with sour cream, butter, and green onions, bacon and cheese. It was outstanding. There are now tables around the restaurant outdoors. read more

This is the best Sizzler in the San Fernando Valley! Had my niece's birthday party because they have a small area for parties of about 50 people... Maria was a breath of fresh air with perfect quality service! And Douglas, the Manager at this branch, knows how to treat people with courtesy, respect, and making each person feel welcomed. This is not the most luxurious place around, but you will not only feel right at home, you will feel like you're the most important! Thank you Maria, Douglas, the Chefs/Cools, and the whole team for your hospitality. See you again soon read more

The sizzler restaurant was my favorite but now I don't know what is happening with the service the food is very low service is a joke the waitresses look at you and don't check your paper to see what drinks you ordered they gave us only one plate to eat Salad Bar The food is not changed from the containers it is supposed that every certain time they have to refill with food the potatoes were all burnt black hard stiff the spaghetti there was no sauce it looked like raw tomato they had salad burnt because of the cold days the garlic bread was hard we waited They asked us if we needed anything but it didn't seem like it mattered. Bad service. I won't eat at this restaurant again. The ambiance was good it's the service and food. read more

Very disappointed. Our 2nd trip... probably our last. Small Tri-tip steak dinner was a joke. 1/2 " thick. I asked for it rare...was not rare. So filled with gristle, and so tough, I had trouble cutting it...let alone eating it. Potatoes were good. Soup was good. Not worth the price. Salad bar was almost empty. Not being refilled. Cold Spaghetti noodles. Service was ok after waving at the waitress 3 x... Not worth the money! Crowded... then the lights died for a couple of seconds. Nice people running it... read more

6/6/21 BAD SERVICE, food Mediocre- Yesterday, My Family and I elected to go to Sizzlers. The hostess and or Manager was siting at a customer table with his back against the entry door wearing a plain Black polo shirt, no name badge and had a bad attitude. He approached me and asked "what I was doing" I responded that I had come to eat and if the restaurant was open which he responded Yes and pointed me to the menu at the cashier desk. It took him another 5-minutes to return to the Cashiers desk since he was sitting down and typing away at a laptop ( he really should be wearing plastic food gloves. He never greeted us other then to say what do you want to order. He asked me what I wanted to drink but the menu did not have any drinks listed. BAD SERVICE, BAD MANAGEMENT, BAD EXAMPLE FOR THE STAFF. Food is Mediocre, I passed by a lot of good restaurants on the way to sizzlers including Black Angus which are actually cheaper and has larger portions. read more

Came here with family last weekend for lunch. The young gentleman at the register was super nice. We ordered chicken, salmon and salad bar. Was not impressed with the food. They were just bland . The waitress was not friendly at all. Looked annoyed and angry. The owner? Was sitting at the front with all his paperwork which is not a great look IMO. I don't know why people still come here. It's not even that cheap. read more

I ate there last night and ordered the baby back ribs and beef teriyaki toppers. The only reason I went there is because they gave me $5 off for my birthday. It still cost me $50. The baby back ribs were grey and old and the beef teriyaki toppers were soooo gristley I could barely chew it and it was unedible. She did replace it with chicken toppers. This was the worst food I have eaten in a very long time. I will NEVER go back. The salad bar was good but very expensive. read more

This is my second review for this sizzler. I LOVE SIZZLER! Always have! In a time where we are still experiencing a pandemic, I haven't been wanting to go out to eat so I decided to order sizzler for take out. Everything was so amazing! The steak was large and cooked just the way I like it. My boyfriend got the steak and unlimited shrimp and I thought it would be a small amount but they really made it worth it! I think everyone should really support this restaurant! The little lady who runs the cashier is also a fun experience in herself! I wish I could have tipped but I hope this review finds her! Thanks so much Sizzler, I WILL ALWAYS COME BACK! read more

I was too embarrassed to check in but not too embarrassed to write a review... Sizzler is what it is, and serves what it serves. Not totally my cup of tea but a decent meal at a decent price with decent service, especially this Sizzler. All of our meals were prepared almost exactly as ordered. Steaks all cooked as ordered. Instead of a steak I went with the "healthy alternative" - the salad bar. Normally I nearly wretch at salad bars. I like things clean, neat and orderly, which is difficult to deliver considering the behavior of some diners. Maybe I got lucky, but between the like-minded diners and the constant attention of the staff (including the manager) I had a great salad bar experience. Soup, green salad, prepared salads, as well as carnitas and guacamole and House made tortilla chips. No ice cream for me though. You really don't want to know why. Would I do it again? CERTAINLY. read more

Well let me start by saying they took all the good stuff from the salad bar like the chicken and the meatballs. The waiter was nice and polite but I feel this old man in front of the entrance is the owner and he just watches you eat. Signs all over like saying no sharing, and government welfare. This place went to the dump. We ordered salad and steak. The kids steak was so hard he and I couldn't even chew it. With a huge vein inside the middle. The adult steak was ok, but no taste, more like the rubber taste. Either you add better quality food and bring back the chicken and meatballs to the buffet or just close the doors. Ohh by the way. The cheese bread is all skinny, not like the old times. read more

I ordered and was asked for the tip amount before even being seated which I thought was odd but whatever, we sat down and a gentleman waiter came and said hello and took the receipt that was the last we ever seen of him. So service was non existent and now the food lol I ordered a stake and shrimp the wife ordered Malibu chicken and the daughters ordered a burger and shrimp. The stake I ordered was definitely old you can tell when beef is old and it was by far old. The rest was edible. My wife's chicken was exactly the same, chicken generally doesn't have a grey tone to the meat unless it's old or going bad. As for this daughters their opinions were "we don't have to come here again do we" so all in all I'd say stay away unless you want bad food and non existent service. read more

I came to this sizzler and had a salad bar. I went home and kept sleeping. Did they put wine or alcohol in the salad bar bc it made me sleepy....I even drove half asleep. I never felt this sleepy after a salad bar feast.... read more

I am so glad we went and ignored the negative reviews. The majority posted it seems, when they opened. Everyone knows it takes a new place a while to gear up. We have not been to a Sizzler in quite some time, and we had heard some of the KTLA News personalities talking about this location the last few weeks. Finding ourselves in the Valley doing chores it seemed the perfect opportunity to try it out. Just like any other Sizzler we have ever been to you place your order as you come in. I think the only negative thing we can come up with is that they need to have a more realistic price for a One Time Salad bar trip for those that want to buy the typical Entree. My hubbys meal was pretty pricey when you add up the 13.99 for the steak and baked Potato, $7.49 for the Salad Bar and $2.79 for the drink. Let me say there is more then enough food available at the Salad bar that he did not need the steak and baked potato so he brought that home for another meal. So although this meal was $38 for the two of us- he will be getting another meal out of it. He now knows better - he can get plenty to eat with the Salad bar. For me- the Vegetarian- HEAVEN. My Senior Salad bar- which I sadly qualify for now- was a great value as it included the drink. I was so happy with the variety at the Salad Bar. What I thought was a fabulous touch was another area they called their "Protein" additions that had a server there. They offer things like Shrimp and other items. I think it is more sanitary having someone serve that. I think its an EXTRA CHARGE-based on the menu I read outside, but I am not sure. The Salad bar also includes some pasta as well as Taco makings. For non vegetarians there are also chicken wings at the salad bar as well. Oh and then there is that cheese bread...............my favorite part of my Sizzler meal, its classic. Their beverage selections are great including Iced Coffee!!! YAY. WIth their Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt as well as all the toppings, I was in heaven. Hubby made a Root Beer float. Staff was very nice. Claudia made us fee very welcome. This is a VERY CLEAN restaurant as well. This used to be a Carrows, and a small one at that. I can imagine it could get pretty crowded as the seating area is minimal. They are doing great with what they have and there is some additional seating in the back. We really enjoyed our lunch there. Bottom line- Ignore the harsh reviews and do not let it deter you. This location has only been open a month, so its not surprising there were some things to work out. Its a Sizzler folks and having eaten at a lifetime of Sizzlers this one is a 5 Star Sizzler. Suggestion to management- for those steak lovers it would be great to offer some kind of Managers special that would include the Salad bar and beverage. read more

Since a zero star isn't possible, this is as low as I can score. After a wonderful visit last week to this location, my wife and I returned only to be let down in every possible way. We were handed a coupon by the General Manager Benito (pictured in the review). The coupon specifies "With this coupon, purchase one entree and receive a second entree of equal or lesser value free" as its first line. So when my wife and I had placed our order and presented our coupon, the cashier informed us that the coupon was only valid if we would have ordered the exact same item. And because my wife chose the Rib Eye and I chose the Steak and All you can eat shrimp, the coupon would not be applied. We paid for our meal and sat down discussing how baffled we were. Our waitress heard our conversation and said she would get a manager to credit us back. The manager came over and said the cashier was correct!!! He indicated the GM changed his mind, and the coupon would now only be valid for two identical entrees, and despite the language on the advertised coupon, would not honor it. The managers name Velvet and she was rude and condescending. In fact, about 30 minutes into our meal, she made a point of casually checking in every table in our eating area with the typical "how is your meal and your experience?" The standard manager mid-meal check in. However, she conveniently avoided our table with my wife and I. A clear snub. So long Sizzler. I'm hoping nobody goes back to this place again! read more

DON'T GO INSIDE!!!! Wish we would have read the Reviews before dining. All of us were so excited to finally try this location out, but got slapped in the face instead. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, followed by SLOW SERVICE, with a splash of OVERCOOKED STEAKS, ending with OVERPRICED FOOD. OH and they don't wash their dishes either. HONESTLY, do yourself a favor and not waste your time here. Won't be returning. read more

Sizzler - Gross unwashed fork. - Steakhouses Near Me - Chatsworth, California

Was excited to come here. Had to drag my son. I left disappointed. The systems went down and had to wait 15 min to place an order. Was about to walk out. They had no AC, it was hot inside. The place is small. They don't have much to choose from. It seemed like they are trying to compete with souplantation. Drinks and plates you grab yourself. I had asked the girl at the front about a dish. Wanted to know if what I was ordering was fried or sautéed. She had no clue. Told me one thing and when we got the dish it was the opposite. We hardly got any service at the table. She was thoughtful to bring us small plates to share our dinner plate but they were dirty with lemon seeds and some other sticky stains. The food from the salad bar was not the same as other sizzler. Overall I left hungry and disappointed. Not coming back. As well it is pricy for what they offer. A salad bar and a dinner plate was $46. The only good thing was the cheese bread. read more

I've been waiting forever for this Sizzler to open and when I drove by on my way to work this morning, the "Now Open" sign had finally been unfurled! I know what you're thinking, "Really? Sizzler??" But I haven't been in years and I remember being madly in love with the cheese bread. In no particular order, the top three most addictive chain restaurant breads have to be Sizzler's cheese bread, Olive Garden breadsticks and Red Lobster biscuits. We arrived a little before noon and I was somewhat surprised by how busy it was. Did all of the valley know about Sizzler's opening day? I was planning all along to get the salad bar ($10.99), but my coworker pointed out that the manager's special steak skewers with rice pilaf, potato, salad bar AND drink was only $13.99, so I decided to go with that. First off, the cheese bread was just as amazing as I had remembered (we got seconds!). I thought the steak chunks were a little on the tough side, but the rice was delicious as were the crispy fries. At the salad bar you could make up your own salad or take it to the counter in a bowl where a man would toss it for you. There was also a taco bar, wings, super cheesy mac and cheese and four soups to choose from. For dessert, there's an ice cream/froyo machine with toppings to make your own sundae. Honestly, I've had some very mediocre experiences at Sizzler in the past, so I was pleasantly surprised. Of course, there were some opening day hiccups with service, but everyone was super enthusiastic. read more

Extremely surprised at how much the prices of sizzler have gone up over the years. Though the location is new and nice with lots of booths, tables and chairs; the food is overpriced and less than desirable. Paid $15.99 for a tiny piece of weird tasting salmon (probably the rub they put on it) and some steamed vegetables. Their salad bar prices are high too-nearly $8 to add to your meal and $13.99 if you just want the salad bar. The salad bar itself looked okay with a few hot food options. Self serve ice cream, drinks, etc. Waiters were kind, busboys on it keeping tables clear. The temperature inside the establishment was hotter than it was outside in 90 degree weather. More than likely won't be coming back anytime soon. read more
