Awesome salad bar and a bigger Sizzler than most. Very family friendly atmosphere with tons of seating. Food was great and the salads fresh will be coming to this location again when in the area read more

Greatest Service and Management! I called in a week in advance saying a party of 25 will be coming in for a graduation from 3pm - 4:30pm. Of course they don't take reservations but I wanted to let them know in advance. They told me they would try there best to accommodate us. My family came in one at a time and I was very embarrassed but the manager was on top of it! He was able to accommodate all of us! I made sure to tip more because there was so much of us. I'm grateful for there help! My family loves the salad salad bar and steak! read more

We love this place for lunch whenever we want salads. It's the best Sizzler existed in CA (from SoC to the Bay), there aren't many still in business these days, we're glad that this place is still alive and well. The lunch salad buffet now went up to $12, but all the salads and hot foods are still great, the clam chowder soup and grilled cheese breads are still our favorites. They always have guacamole all year round, salsa and tacos which I like. The pre-mixed salads are always fresh and tasty. The servers are tentative and been there since forever. read more

I just ate the "New York Grissel Fatty". 4th of July dinner was a 14 oz New York Strip...I was so hungry I ate as much grissel as I could but some was impossible to chew and I pushed it and most the fat to the side of the plate. That steak should be called the "New York Grissel Fatty!" read more

Sizzler - Steakhouses Near Me - Santa Clara, California

I've only ever eaten at Sizzler's for the dine in buffet, but decided to get Doordash takeout for mine and my partner's anniversary, also bc my partner wanted steak. I ordered the Shrimp, Shrimp, Shrimp (supposed to come with three types of shrimp, one of which came on skewers) and a side Caesar salad, and my partner got the Tri-tip Sirloin steak, rare, with mashed potatoes. The pickup itself was fine, but I honestly have no idea what happened in between the restaurant receiving the order and whoever inputted it. We found out on the way home that there were not only items missing, but both of our orders were incorrect. My salad was nowhere to be found, I only got the skewers of one type of shrimp, and somehow mixed vegetables appeared?? My partner never got their mashed potatoes, and even though the restaurant receipt had the steak as "medium rare", it actually seemed to be all the way well done Brown all the way through. Thankfully, Doordash helped out, and while the food was pretty decent, we were both disappointed. I don't know if we just caught them on a bad night or what, but probably won't order from them for a while. Pics attached for what we ordered vs what we actually got. read more

I was surprised to learn Sizzler was still around. The location has ample parking. Interior is a little dated but clean and well presented. Cashier had a bit of an attitude but the dining staff was so friendly. Deluxe salad bar with soup options. They also have a taco/nacho bar. The day I went they had wings and taquitos too. Not sure if these are standard. They brought out garlic bread which was delicious. Will be back. read more

40 minutes for a one plate to go order when theres only a handful of people in the restaurant is HORRIBLE. Me and another guy were waiting there forever. Do yourself a favor and go across the street to one of the other steakhouses, you will get your food faster and far better quality. Trust me. read more

oh childhood memories! I'm so happy that there is a Sizzler still around. Back in the day I could find one anywhere and everywhere. My family would order the salad bar which had more than just the salad. The hot meals were so good like the fried chicken wings and nachos. My personal favorite part is chicken noodle soup and the endless cheese toast. The toast has the perfect amount of crunch and seasoning. Writing about it makes me want to go right now! read more

We had a great experience, just as good as when I visited as a kid..Now my kids want to go and carry on the tradition. I wish they would bring back all you can eat ribs :) read more

Trying to support franchisees too as they are usually family owned! Placed my order online and it was ready VERY quickly. Food is great. Got the ketchup on the side and BBQ sauce. I ordered the steak and chicken and I am not disappointed. Definitely recommend! read more

Haven't been to Sizzler since my Son was 5, he's 29 now. Service and food is still the same. I was hoping for a better outting since then but nothing has changed. Left disappointed and will never return in this lifetime or the next. Upon writing this review my side was starting to hurt. So I will take that as my que to leave. When I was a kid in the early 80's Sizzler was legit, now just a disappointing shell of what used to be...... read more

I wish there were more Sizzlers. There are just a handful left, but this is the place I think of when I need to get my fill of fresh salads and chicken wings. Of course they have the 3 hot soup station, the taco bar, spaghetti, onion rings and the dessert and ice cream bar. I always overeat when I come here, so I try not to come here more than 2x monthly..otherwise I'm in big trouble. read more

I usually don't find myself compelled to write a review but I was so disappointed with my experience this time. I go to this particular location frequently and have always had a excellent meal. This time we ordered our meal and sat down to eat. First thing that was wrong was ice cold cheese bread. This is one of my favorite parts of the whole meal. Second I ordered my steak well done and it came out pink. I gave it back to the waitress and when she brought it back it was half the size and burnt. My friend had a burger that was not cooked as asked either. I tried to speak with a manager that night but after 15 mins he had not come to our table and so I left because it was kind of busy. I am very dissatisfied with this visit. Hopefully no one else has to go through this. read more

Curly haired boy doesn't know to explain his own menu I asked for a malibu chicken plate , he said it comes with unlimited shrimp i say "ok cool" he said "do you want the small shrimp or the jumbo shrimp " i said "jumbo ", Fast forward I finish the 4 shrimp I received and ask for more , the waitress is clueless , so now i have to walk up to the curly boy and let him know , he tells me that only the small shrimp were unlimited ,Then gives me some attitude about it , lol Feel bad for this place Plus the chicken portion with ham was nasty Do youreself a favor and go to jack in the box read more

Impressive! Fresh and full salad bar. A nice selection in the salad bar too compared to the restaurant in San Jose. Employees are friendly and attentive. The food was prepared well and had a good portion size compared to San Jose. Restaurant was clean. read more

This sizzler is a sizzling with specials! Did you know this one is where they test out new menu items? I didn't either until recently tbh. Anyways the staff here is exceptionally awesome and the food is d eee licous best of all its not too crowded and there's always parking outside. Pro tip this is the best keto friendly buffet in the bay as far as I can tell. read more

This is the first time at any Sizzler in over 20 years!!! Walking in was like traveling in time to my childhood! It's a pretty big dining area! It has to seat over a hundred people! The place looked a little dated, but it appeared clean! I remember enjoying the All-You-Can-Eat-Shrimp meal that was offered when I was a kid. Surprisingly, it is still offered as part of the regular menu! It is now called Steak & Unlimited Shrimp meal. I ended up ordering that very dish! It comes with Baked Potato and sliced bread. The steak was cooked just as I ordered! It was well seasoned! The shrimps were exactly as I remembered eating as a kid! They were very satisfying! I was only able to get a second serving cause I was full! I distinctly recall that I was able to eat more as kid! I just can't chow it down like I use to! The waiter provided excellent service! He was very attentive and professional! I would definitely make a return visit to this Sizzler location! By the way, as I was leaving, I noticed that the dining area was quickly filling up! It is obviously a popular place for lunch! Update: On my last visit, I had another wonderful meal at this Sizzler location! The food was again fantastic! The service that I received from my waiter, Wilson, was just great! Wilson was very attentive and professional! He was the cherry on top of an already great meal! Wilson, thank you so much for the awesome service! It's that type of service and the great food that keeps me and my family coming here at Sizzler! read more

Time to give credit where credit is due! This is regarding a visit on October 7 during lunchtime. The cashier that was working was efficient, friendly, and didn't cut corners. She inspected the salad bowls and plates to make sure each customer didn't have a dirty one. I ordered the New York strip and added the salad bar, to my surprise, the steak was very good. Nicely seasoned and cooked to a solid, medium rare. All you can eat salad bar to my order. It was really nice to have that considering places like sweet tomatoes don't exist anymore. I can see why it was so crowded today. It's a great deal and the food was relatively decent especially from a chain restaurant. Will definitely be returning! read more

Yep, I still love Texas toast! This location is always good. The food is fresh and the salad bar is always clean and stocked. The staff is friendly and helpful. I'm glad they are still around. read more

Horrible food, salad bar is mediocre. We go there once in 6 months and every occasion we have been disappointed..

First time to visit this store when we were nearby. The aroma of the steak being cooked can be smell from outside. However, what made me give 2 1/2 stars only is due to the smell when we came in, I do not like the smell, it smell awful next the restroom, looks likethey used an old damped cloth mop on the floor. inside the restroom, cleanliness is acceptable, no foul odor noted though. Cashier and waitress appears friendly and on top of what they were doing. I liked their food, we ordered the kids meal cheese pizza w/fries. Well done Sirlion steak with baked potato and salad and the ultimate trio shrimp and mango lemonade. Appears it is family friendly ambiance, moderate noise. Parking is not bad. Appears that they have a lot of customers whatever time it is. read more

Shocked by the poor quality of the food -- not fresh, looked old and reheated. Burger was hard and dry like a hockey puck, even made a thunking sound when tapped, and - like another commenter's steak - coated in dirty grill residue. The reheated cheese was sweaty with crusted edges and the lettuce was browning. Until now the food quality was consistently good, which is why I was a repeat customer, but after this never again. read more

Review for the restaurant itself : it's a very cramped and tight place to eat. Tables are very close to each other. Theres barely a walk way without bumping into other people or tables. Not very accommodating for families that have strollers or people who have walkers/ walking aides (you're either trying to find a corner or your things will be blocking the walk way). read more

Pro: the manager is hard working. When it's busy, you see him running around, helping bus tables and sit people. When it's slower, he still doing something! Management and staff are awesome. The steaks always come out med rare, (as desired). You can count on a good steak. Con: I wish they had soft tortillas @ the salad bar. read more

I've tried Ribeye mid-rare. It tastes bad that no flavor, and it's very hard to chew read more

I dont know why this Sizzler has only 3 stars its the best one. I eat here often. The workers clean and keep the food filled up. I really love the salad here. read more

Great for salads, terrible for steaks. I don't think they have cleaned the grill in the past week. My steak was coated in a nice layer of burnt grill residue. I ordered it medium rare but the outside was beyond well done. Also the ribeye was very thin cut, almost like carne asada. If you like burnt outside and thick cut, go for the NY strip. Otherwise just spend the money on flemmings where you actually have a server and nice atmosphere and not a jacked up steak. read more

My steak was ordered medium is arrived still moo-ing from the pasture. Took 25 min to get replacement. My family was already done with their meal. Plus they discontinued beer and wine. This is a trailer park steakhouse read more

Usually I go to RWC sizzlers and I love it , this time I when to Santa Clara and didn't like it at all my son order a hamburger and the meet was burn my sirloin steak was not fully cooked also my potatoe were so dry I will never go back tho this sizzler. read more

Coming to a Sizzler brings back memories from when I was little. My family and I used to go to a Sizzler as a special treat when I was little so this was a bit nostalgic. I remember that I always liked the salad bar as I can pick only the items that I liked. I could put in as much of my favorite items as I wanted and that was pretty nice. I always liked to put in copius amounts of corn, cheese, bacon bits, and carrots. I sometimes liked mushrooms and sometimes not. I got some this time and then I remembered that they are always very bland. Oh well, I can always just drown the salad with some dressing. I also remembered that they always overcooked the steak but they have A1 steak sauce so that helped. The soup was piping hot so that was awesome. Even now as an adult, I still overfill on the soup and appetizers and don't have enough room for the entree. Oh well, I guess somethings never change. This particular Sizzler was smaller than I remembered but it felt cozy so I didn't mind. read more

I enjoy the salad bar. It was a busy Friday night after new year. All the veggies are fresh. I saw the server constantly refilling the bowl on the bar for the greens. Our server was a very nice lady. Helpful and very pleasant. read more

The service was excellent- and the salad bar was clean & well stocked. However, the steak was horrible. Both mine and my partner's were both tough and hard to chew. The bread was under cooked and soggy. No way this meal Was with $70!! The lobster was fine but the drawn "butter" is fake - more like oil! YUCK! We won't be back - unless it's just for the salad bar (however the chicken wings were extremely over cooked and dry). read more

Food was good! And the service was good also! Will be back soon. And the there price is affordable

could not get server. went to cashier to get server and no server arrived. waived at server and she ignored me. I will never come here again. read more

The salad bar is pretty legit: - Pre-mixed salads: Caesar, Spinach - Sweet tomatoes - esque in salad options - Soups: Chicken noodle, clam chowder - Pudding - tapioca / chocolate - Jello? - Hot items: taco / nacho bar, spaghetti and meatballs Dessert bar: - Banana pudding yum - Pineapple upside down cake looked and tasted horrible - Froyo decent Steak: - It's meat and generally over cooked - Pretty decent portion size - Kid size of 4 oz is great Salmon: - mnp a big fan, despite being served a very dried overcooked piece read more

On Dec 11, I ordered 2 sizzler steak meals from this Santa Clara Sizzler. I ordered medium steaks. Both were as dry as shoe leather. The sides were cold and the clam chowder was like mush - as if it had been heated and reheated over and over. I ordered through Doordash. I reported this and was given a full refund. Sizzler manager needs to train their employees! Pre covid we used to go there once a month. They need to cook well to keep customers. read more

I love Sizzler. That being said there were several missteps on my last encounter. This time I decided to have it delivered as I was feeling under the weather. I ordered the sirloin Steak and Crispy Shrimp, I also ordered the 6 Jumbo Crispy Shrimp Plate. Let me point out that Crispy Shrimp are the small curled type, my favorite. The Jumbo Shrimp are really what I call prawns. As Sizzler does not offer a Crispy Shrimp Plate, I ordered the Jumbo Plate. Well, all I got were Jumbo Prawn Shrimp for both meals. Second, the sirloin steak was the smallest steak I've ever seen. Third, the rice pilaf was the worst. It was hard, chewy, and oily. Luckily I had an Uncle Ben's® Rice Pilaf microwave pouch, and sent the forementioned to the bin. In the end it was like listening to a symphony off key. I hope my next visit will see improvements. read more

Wilson is the best! I have been going to this Sizzler since I was a kid! Thank you for the friendly service, Wilson! read more

When I got to the hotel, it was 9 PM already. Sizzler is just next to Embassy Suite. So I went there for a quick dinner. It has a cafeteria style. I order and pay for the meal to cashier first. They sell cheap steak. So I order a combo steak and Colossal shrimps. The colossal shrimps are very good, even taste like lobster. $18 for both steak and shrimps. It's very affordable restaurant in silicon valley. The steak is terrible. I'm from Texas. I'm spoiled by the good quality beef in Texas. The steak in Sizzler is terrible. read more

You know... sometimes you just gotta do it. Can't believe how packed this place gets. I got the All you can eat Salad and Hot Bar for just $11.99. I really only eat salad and the chicken wings but sometimes some nachos or tacos sneak onto my plate. You definitely get what you pay for but also pay for what you got later. I know, TMI... lol. read more
