    Under new management! This place looked so much nicer inside.... amazing what a face-lift can do. Server was very friendly and checked on us periodically. Food was ok (meat and fish overcooked) but still enjoyable. Everything looked well maintained and tables cleaned promptly. Big improvement. If food wasn't overcooked would have 4 stars.

    Had very high expectations coming to eat here and it was rather disappointing. All the social media posts and reviews from the reopening of sizzler led me to believe that this place had a major revamp. The inside looks super nice and the workers were nice but the food just wasn't the best. My mom had the jumbo shrimps and she said they were good. My burger was a basic burger nothing special and my dad claimed the chicken club tasted like a frozen breast that was thawed, cooked, then served. The salad bar wasn't as great either. The options outside of the actual salad were a nice addition to see but the execution was lacking in taste and flavor. The chicken soup was salty and the clam chowder was overly fishy. I did enjoy the dessert bar with the pound cake, strawberry compote and ice cream. Overall the place was nostalgic to return to, however I will not be back again. The food needs another makeover in terms of flavor and execution in my opinion. I also thought the pricing was a bit high for the salad bar.

    Sizzler holds quite a special place in my heart - some of my fondest memories as a kid growing-up in the 90's was going to Sizzler in our "Sunday Best" after church. Heck, I remember celebrating my older sister's Confirmation at Sizzler (where my mom + aunt unsuccessfully tried to match-make my Doctor uncle with my sister's facilitator). Anyways, I digress. Fast-forward several decades later & there's one thing that keeps coming to mind when I think of this place - nostalgia. That said, it was my first time at this location & I came here for a very specific reason - their Grand Re-Opening. So what's Sizzler like in 2025? Some of the same, but some welcome upgrades... FOOD - Classic Trio: 8.9 / 10 My go-to order whenever I'm here. It's a great "sampler of everything this place has to offer". It's nice that you have the option to upgrade your steak (but considering all the food that I'd be having -with an unlimited salad bar) I've felt the upgrade was very unnecessary. Steak was cooked exactly to my liking for medium rare. Although I generally consider steak sauce a "handicap" of sorts, here, steak as a vehicle for Sizzler's own branded steak sauce. It has quite the unique blend of zesty boldness. I would venture to say a more tomato-forward sauce than your usual A1. That said, part of me did wish that I purchased a bottle to take home. The Malibu Chicken (2nd of 3 proteins) is a breaded chicken breast with ham & melted cheese a la Chicken Cordon Bleu - which pairs nicely with their mayo-based sauce. Lastly, 4 fried shrimp round out the entrée. Fried a little crispier than at other places (which I actually prefer). All of this rounded out with a baked potato + sour cream + chives. I implore you to find a full-service restaurant that serves a steak dinner like this, especially at this price point. Unlimited Salad Bar: 8.8 / 10 Anyone who knows Sizzler knows that this place is known for it's salad bar. That said, I will say that I appreciate that all plates / soup bowls are left out for us patrons to pick-up at out pleasure. There was a time + place when we had to "hassle" our servers for fresh plates, & well, that can get tiring & low-key embarrassing for patrons like myself who prefer to pick very small portions of food so as to 1) Be able to try a variety of options; 2) Put into practice a rather healthy habit of making multiple trips to the salad bar so as to get some "extra steps" in. 3) Minimize the risk of not wasting food by "eating with our eyes" & getting more food than we can finish. One thing to note is that I appreciate new additions such as Orange Chicken & Key Lime Cheesecake. Here in Downey, this is the oldest operating location. With the Grand Re-Opening, I really noticed an effort by management to bring their A-Game. From the bold red, upholstered booth cushions, to top-tier service (I lost count with how many times my 2 waitresses checked on me to make sure everything was ok, going so far as to even bring a plastic cup filled with my choice of beverage for to-go). As a nice little bonus, I did get to spin their prize wheel (for the Grand Re-Opening Weekend only) and walk away with some nice souvenirs. Thank you so much, Sizzler Downey!

    We had been looking forward to the re-opening. We order ribs and the salad bar. Cheese bread is delicious. Loved the ribs. Service was excellent. Staff is friendly and attentive. We are definitely coming back.

    Steak & the salad bar are my go to here at Sizzler's. Food will not disappoint. Cashier and all the servers are always very attentive to their guests. Kudos to our server Felipe for the awesome service.

    First time there with parents, Erika was very nice came several times to ask if we needed, we ordered the Salad buffet. The food taste old I didn't like it, to top it off I found a bug in the salad. Honestly I would not recommend it.

    Not a good experience all around. To start Manuel took my order and I felt intimidated by his attitude. I think I was bothering him by trying to order. Not very friendly. No salutations. Toast was soggy and overall was not what I remembered years ago. I guess its a new age and the old family atmosphere is gone.

    As a person born and raised in the Midwest, who recently trans planted to California, the idea of eating at a sizzler freaked me out. However, I will say the experience was enjoyable as you would expect with most salad bar option based restaurants. The food options were basic however, the establishment was clean, and the staff were very friendly and very personable.. We arrived with a very large party to celebrate an event and everything went smoothly. The salad bar options are three different types of salad and then the option of a potato salad, a broccoli salad and a pasta salad. There is a taco bar with two meats and toppings and then of course the dessert bar. II it worth $17? Not really but is it convenient? Yes.

I always get the Full House sauce with mild spice, but with a side of medium sauce to dip into too. I know it sounds crazy, but trust me it's SO good and gives the perfect balance of flavor and extra kick. The seafood tastes fresh, the sauce is rich and buttery, and the portions are really filling. The fries and extras soak up the sauce so well too. I also like that the spice levels are customizable because everyone in the group can get what they're comfortable with. Service has always been friendly whenever I've gone, and the atmosphere is casual and fun for eating with friends or family. Definitely one of those places I keep craving and coming back to.

I also didn't like the sausage; the texture and flavor were both off for me. The only decent parts of the combo were the corn and potatoes, which were cooked well and actually enjoyable. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to save the meal. Service was another downside. I placed a takeout order and stood by the register for almost five minutes without being acknowledged at all. No greeting, no eye contact -- nothing -- even though staff were nearby. Overall, I wouldn't return. If you're looking for a cajun seafood boil, Boiling Crab is much better in terms of freshness, flavor, and service.
