    I've dined here before and glad we stopped by. We actually ended up changing our minds. We ordered a few toasts to go and ate It outside. It was so good. Service was fast and good. The only thing for me is that the prices are a bit pricey for a Sizzler. I don't remember what I had in the past but regardless, I know it was good. :) Hey nostalgia moment in my eyes.

    We came yesterday at 4:30pm. No one was in line fortunately. Place was quite occupied. Cashier was friendly though. We did have a dirty glass cup. We did have to find our own seating which was : 2 corner booths to accommodate a party of 5 adults, 3 kids and a baby with a high chair. It made our dinner somewhat awkward. Not gonna name anyone even though the server would give us a card normally to review them on Yelp and google. Should we have tipped them first? Tri tip sirloin was tough according to my husband and my mom. Regardless, this is the last restaurant we ate with my pops as a whole family before he passed. Cheese toast was good as usual but menudo was salty. And clam chowder was lackluster . So I'm pretty bummed.

    Growing up in the Midwest, places like Sizzler were a treat because who didn't like an all you can eat buffet concept as a kid? Nowadays, the concept isn't as ubiquitous because inflation and generational preferences have taken a toll. There used to be a Sizzler closer to my house before it closed so this Mountain View location in the Imperial Marketplace was the nearest branch. The parking lot was vast because of the nearby home improvement store that was the anchor tenant. I had not stepped inside one of these "family steakhouses" in decades. The layouts were all pretty similar with menu screens and a service counter with multiple registers set up after you walked through a corridor from the entranceway. After ordering and getting a receipt, you picked any open table for seating, of which there were dozens because the capacity was sufficient for well over 100 diners. A server would then come by and take the receipt to the kitchen for a cook to prepare the entree(s). In the meantime, you could help yourself to the buffet stations where soups, salads, sides, fried fare, and ice cream were available. It's not the highest quality food but for an AYCE model, there were plenty of choices for all kinds of palates. I filled a few plates with various items and saved room for soft serve ice cream as dessert. My main dish was an eight-ounce serving of Tri Tip Sirloin. It came with a choice of one side which was mashed potatoes in my case. I had finished about half of the items I picked from the buffet before the steak, potatoes, and complimentary cheese toast were delivered to my table. The meat was cooked more medium than my preference of medium rare. The sirloin was seasoned with quite a bit of black pepper as I could taste the bitterness. The spuds and toast were ordinary as expected. The brownies at the ice cream station were a bonus as the dense chocolate cake was a nice texture and flavor contrast to the vanilla soft serve. I can't consume as much as I could half a lifetime ago so I probably didn't get my money's worth which in this case was over $35. This trip to Sizzler was more about nostalgia and comfort grub versus gourmet dining. I gave a rating between three and four stars for the dining experience.

    Here's a Christmas story Years ago, Christmas was about to get canceled flight delay etc. Everything that could go wrong went wrong. The only place open was Sizzler and we all went and we all had the best time so every year at Christmas are thereabouts we go to Sizzler good people on both sides of the menu. Everybody orders, two burgers minimum cut one of the burgers in half and you share it with someone else and we laugh we talk we share we inspire and we get ready for the next year . Sizzler (said in a whisper) never disappoint never had a sticky table never had some strange madness happen. They've always just run a tight shit. We've been using this location for about five-ish years now.

    Always 5 stars!!!! They feed Veterans for free every year, on the occasion of November 11th. Today I received a 50% off coupon from Sizzler to my email address from Sizzler itself, never b 4, first time ever. The Ribeye was cooked to perfection at a reasonable price point. Same price as Outback Steakhouse. Excellent service. I just love this place.

    On Aug . 6 , I dropped by at Sizzler for lunch. This restaurant is usually my " to go " place for healthy meals . A wide variety of fresh offerings in their salad bar , delicious soups , side dishes etc. are always replenished . Every single time I dine in - it's usually busy and that day was no exception . However , their service staff members are always hands on and so attentive to the customers . This is not a random observation BUT a consistent service oriented point of view from someone who's been coming here for years regularly . I had to take this opportunity to commend on the excellent customer service skills of Manager Michael Graciano . He's so attentive to his customers' needs and concerns . He picked up used plates and utensils . He engaged them in conversations , no matter how short the time parameters were . He would check on the availability of food items on the salad bar . Mr. Graciano can be seen sweeping scraps of food items on the floor . These are just a few of the things that I've seen him doing on my visits at Sizzler . His leadership, excellent people skills are truly exceptional and those qualities set him apart from the pack. To this note - kindly extend to him my sincerest appreciation and thanks for his exemplary service . Mr . Michael Graciano epitomizes what a dedicated , hardworking and well loved team manager is all about .

    I had this place bookmarked for a very long time. I originally found out about it because a local…read morerancher I buy meat from occasionally told me they used their beef for the burger patties. It's located in City Heights, which isn't an area I drive through very often, but I was craving a good burger and finally decided it was time to check this place out. I stopped by for a late lunch on Saturday, and there were only a few people inside. The place has plenty of seating at the bar along with a few tables and a very casual, laid-back vibe. I ordered the Salute without bacon. I had read that they cook their fries in 100% beef tallow, and after seeing so many reviews rave about the rosemary fries, I definitely had to try them. They did not disappoint! They were super crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside, and the combination of sea salt and rosemary was absolutely delicious. Honestly, the fries alone are worth coming back for. The burger was also cooked perfectly medium, just as I ordered, and was incredibly juicy. I did ask about the beef since I originally came here because of the ranch I knew they had sourced from. They told me they now use meat from a different ranch, but it's still pasture-raised, grass-fed beef. You could definitely taste the quality. The portion was generous, and I thought the price was very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get. They also feature different burger specials/flavors each month, which gives me another reason to come back. If I'm craving a really good burger and crispy fries, I would definitely make the trip over here again.

    We visited on a Tuesday Night for Family Dinner. Since we all worked late on this date, the…read moredecision was made to get burgers. Upon entering, they were so busy that no one greeted us, but we know the drill and we selected a sit down dining table vs the bar top. Tuesdays are "Kids Eat Free" under 12, with the purchase of an adult meal per child. This is such a great deal for families. There were a lot of families dining, about 5-6, on this Tuesday Night at 6p. Our server (a young man with dark hair) came to take our beverage orders and ask if we wanted apps. We passed on the apps but ordered: 1 tangerine soda, and the rest waters. He came back in about 5-7 mins with our drinks. At that time, we ordered: 2 BBQ Bacon Burgers Medium Well, and 1 Grilled Chicken Sandwich. Our food was ready in a longer amount of time than usual. We waited for about 26-28 mins for it after we placed our order. We figured that with the busy family orders, this could have been the delay. Also, there seemed to be 1 person (our server) manning the serving and the bar customers for quite some time alone. He was doing both jobs the majority of the time we were there. He was working hard. Finally, after we got our food, another person appeared at the bar and was helping in. We noticed that the chalkboard updated us and said that they have a new Oceanside location. This is wonderful news! We are happy to see this business grow. We have been customers since they were first starting up and it's great to see them thrive. Our food was good and we especially appreciate that the rosemary fries are prepared so well. It was a pleasure to dine here again.

My wife tricked me into going with her to Walmart to pick up some shit, so I got to pick the spot for lunch and this is what I picked. Got there about 2 PM on Good Friday and there were a few people there but nothing crazy. Got seated right away and ordered drinks, a Pacifico for me, Sprite for the wifey - got them right away. For food, I got a BBQ bacon cheeseburger with tots, wifey got a regular bacon cheeseburger with everything plus fries, and I was curious so I also got the $10 chocolate (fudge) shake. Shake was delivered first. Expectations were high, and I was not disappointed. The shake was served in the metal tin, made with loads of real ice cream, whipped cream, fudge, drizzle of chocolate syrup, and chocolate sprinkles. Honestly not sure what I was thinking when mixing beer with shake, in hindsight I wouldn't do that again... but it was one of the best shakes I've had in a long while. Burgers came out shortly afterwards. Wifey's was cooked perfectly medium, which is an unusual thing for most burger places these days; most of the time when I order a burger medium, it comes out medium well or well done. These were both perfectly medium. Both burgers came out with a generous amount of potato products, more than either of us could hope to stuff down our gullets in one sitting. The food was outstanding. The service was great. The music was too loud for the wife but it was the kind of music that is supposed to be played loud so no points off for that from me. A nice vibe overall. I'll definitely be back.

Right when you walk in, you'll see Captain Sam's set up in the corner. Service is friendly, instantly gives me that same vibe at my favorite fish and chicken spot back home in Chicago. Now the food? Smacks harder than Bruce Lee. Everything was fried to perfection. The catfish was flavorful without that muddy taste, the cod was light and flaky, and the shrimp? Big and great flavor. The whole wings hit the spot. I like to drench mine in hot sauce and ranch. Note: normally dinners come with three wings, but since they were on the smaller side they gave me four. Small gesture, big appreciation. Gizzards were clean, crispy, and fried just right and if you're about that spice life, definitely get them Chicago style (drenched in mild sauce). Even the fries deserve a shoutout. Most spots treat fries as an afterthought, but these had a crispy coating with a fluffy inside and some of the best I've had at a fish & chicken joint. I'll be back for sure. Welp! Onto the next Lipitor worthy food adventure!
