Food was hot and area was kept up with filling food and cleanliness. Value was fair and food was good. Great place for variety and self service. read more

Service was terrible. Our waitress gave us dirty looks and rolled her eyes at us for asking for a bowl for the soup and soup spoons. We brought it to the manager's attention. And during that time she was arguing with the first manager about what she said to us and then the second manager came out, and she still walked by my husband and myself giving us dirty looks rolling her eyes, saying that's not what she said. It was a terrible experience.We ended up not even eating lunch.We got a refund on our money and we left, we will not be back.!!! The ambiance and atmosphere was hostile, uncomfortable, and made me cry. We went to have lunch after Sunday service. Like we normally do. I pray for the waitress. read more

We went on a Friday it was terrible. We ordered the shrimp and steak plate. We got our order the food was cold even the bake potato was cold. They slap butter and sour cream but it was just gross. I took a bite of my steak that was it . It was the good was just sitting back there for a while cold. I had to just leave my food. Shame on sizzlers charging people those prices and it's not even worth it. The salad bar had brown lettuce and the watermelon was cut and it was so mushy you could see the fingers of who cut it. So don't waste your hard working money on this restaurant. Letting you know ahead of time. These franchise will go broke if this the new way of serving food. read more

Took my 83 year old mother to Sizzler in Visalia for her birthday because that's where she wanted to go. She really enjoyed herself. She got the salad bar and a 6 ounce sirloin and she was happy with all of it. Now me on the other hand I was not impressed at all. I ordered the double Malibu chicken which is a menu item you have to order separate from the buffet. I was expecting something with flavor and personality but it came out tasting like buffet food. That is why I was disappointed. I don't think that's the cooks fault I think that's just how the corporation has it set up. The staff though was excellent. They were very friendly and very accommodating. They even came out and sang happy birthday to my mom. They kept us topped off with cheese bread which was fresh and hot every time. The restaurant was clean everywhere we went. Tables, bathrooms, condiment stations. I usually don't but I even included a restroom picture this time because it was that clean. I honestly feel bad only giving them 3 stars because the staff was excellent but the food just was not to my liking. If you like Sizzler then more power to you but for me it just was not very good.

Came back to sizzler today in hopes of the same wonderful experience we had a couple weeks ago. The service was great this time as well, but the food was not very good. I ordered the prime rib burger and added the salad bar. I fully regret adding the salad bar. The burger was inherently ok, the patty had a weird texture. But all the veggies were fresh on it. The soup was hot, the sauces were hot but everything else was colder than room temp. The chicken wings, the corn dogs, the corn fritters. The chicken they had in front of the taco meat. Cold. The floor was so sticky. There was no labels on anything but the corn fritters. There was no chocolate sauce or caramel sauce for the ice cream. read more

Let's begin with waiting forever to get plates and when finally asking for said plates have them literally pulled away while someone goes to back to find your mysterious server who is supposed to give you plates. Those plates were handed to is in a rude manner and mo other check ins or dirty plate removal or offers of new plates happened. We were afraid to ask again. Then a trip to the restroom nearly took the soles off our shoes the floor was so sticky and disgusting. At 5:30 pm the soups and dressings were nearly empty, dried and crusty around the edges. It should not be a surprise to the employees what time the dinner crowd will arrive and that they serve an unlimited salad bar option so clean plates should be available. Do better for the people that might return, it won't be us Sizzler. read more

The food is great considering the price. The smaller plate option gives you more food at a lower price than many fast food chains. The service is ok because they have limited staff. You can serve yourself at the salad bar, and refilling your soft drinks. The dinning has been upgraded and refreshed so the ambiance is just fine. read more

Walking in to order was rushed at the register. I'm use to ordering what I want but the cashier was rushing me trying to put food in my mouth quick. I asked her to slow down and let me speak. Wow. Made me tired The food was excellent and the waitress was very attentive. Just walking in made me uncomfortable read more

Sizzler has been out go to lately after church on Saturdays. The staff is friendly and we get great service from everyone. Ramses is one of the servers and his service is by far the best. He takes care of his tables very well and is an amazing server. Check's in often and is just the best. If Sizzler has a training session for servers the it should be taught by this guy. Keep up the awesome work! read more

About 1 year ago cashier/manager charged us for bottles of wine instead of per glass, she kept our receipt, and we had to go back next day to get $22 refund (we also paid for friends). Just went again and they had deleted seniors menu and we were told they had done away with senior salad bar trip and including drink. We were billed full price and later found out our meals qualified for 15% senior "grill" discount. Same person/manager who hosed us on wine previously was cashier and though we specifically asked she (Becky) did not give us the senior discount. We called and evasive manager finally said we could come back and get a free drink. She also said nationwide Sizzler had canceled salad bar and drink for seniors and per online that is not true; selectively done per Franchise. Will not go there again as long as this manager is there. read more

No complaints with the server. But general let down from corporate management that decided to change the menu and raise prices, by deleting two of the once free sides for the meal. Now soft drinks are extra and there is no more " side salad " ,once free with entree. Only full salad bar , for extra money. So their once great value as an affordable meal is now gone. read more

A cockroach crawled up my leg today in the restaurant. There's not a whole lot else to say.

This place is by far the nastiest restaurant in Visalia ! Over priced and nasty the food is worse than a cafeteria food . My family and I went for a celebration and we all didn't enjoy the food ! How is this place open ! Bad quality food ! The workers are nice . read more

It was me and my wife's first time coming here, they look like they upgraded and remodeled a lot of things. Our servers name is Ramses and he was amazing! He was so quick, in tune with all of our needs and made sure we were well taken care of! I recommend him for your tables! His service stood out immensely! I like that they had the salad bar option, you can get a lot of things for your own convenience! read more

I came to dinner Sizzler with a friend group and I haven't been to a Sizzler in several decades. It is definitely not the same Sizzler from years ago. The salad bar is minimal and unkept the dessert bar was a disaster. This restaurant has been here for 40+ years and it feels like it. The dining room needs a refresh because it is dated and has an awkward flow. The service was mediocre at best. Definitely not the Sizzler of yesteryear. read more

Newly remodeled, but extremely limited options. Salad bar is extremely limited compared to Sizzler locations elsewhere. Spent $90 on a spread I could have put together at a fraction of the cost using ingredients from Grocery Outlet. Ordered my son the grilled Salmon meal, they brought out a single piece of salmon. Waste of time and money. read more

So my family tried out Sizzler today. The food was much better. The only reason I would not give them five stars is they need a larger selection of hot food at their salad bar. Our waitress was awesome. She brought us cheese toast before we could even ask and she kept our drink full. She was very friendly. The restaurant even looks cleaner and the food was fresher too. Good job sizzler at turn your restaurant around in a positive direction! read more

Had the salad bar chicken wings were overcooked clamp chowder was watered down so was the spaghetti sauce tacos were good the pork meat and hamburger meat were good not to much of a variety service was good read more

Has always been one of my mom's favorite places to have dinner but today definitely wasn't one of those days. Ordered off the menu and added the buffet. If I knew how limited it was I would have just had our regular meals smh. Salad bar was lacking items; looks like they removed some items & whatever was there was gross. Was given a dirty cup; couldn't even find our waiter since he disappeared after bringing our food. Food wasn't hot; steak was undercooked. Service was crap. $100 spent on crappy food, crappy service etc etc. save your money; cook at home read more

Just had dinner, our server was Ramses, he is amazing! Everything about our experience was awesome because of his service! He read our minds and took care of our needs without us even asking. read more

We had one of the best servers I have ever encountered. Juan was the ONLY waiter on duty during the lunch rush on Thursday, April 3, 2025. There had to be 60+ diners. We ordered dinners, and he had to return an item that wasn't properly cooked on top of everything else. When I realized there were no others serving I watched this young man wait on EVERYONE with patience and professionalism. I did seek out the manager to offer my praise for Juan. I hope Sizzler will tell Juan he got a great review and if there is any kind of award it is doubled! We left a tip that in NO WAY reflected his value but it's all the cash we had which was about 15%. The manager told me Juan works and goes to school full time! Thank you, Juan, you made our experience great and you represented the best of our younger generation. read more

Just got here to visit our sick Grandma (8 hour drive). Absolutely phenomenal service! An hour before closing Ray served us and had the best service I've ever received. The food was absolutely amazing and filling! And I really enjoyed the mood. I truly appreciated the staff. Especially Ray I can't emphasize enough how great he was. Would recommend! read more

We arrived about 10 minutes to closing on a Thursday evening. Ramses our server was so gracious making us feel comfortable to take our time and stay. I was pleasantly surprised to see the salad bar was stocked to so late and the hot foods as well. Great place to bring your family! Thanks Sizzler! read more

When I came to this Sizzlers, I was slightly disappointed at the chain restaurant. The wait staff were friendly, and was probably the best part. Although, my sister and I both seen roaches and one even crawled near her leg. There dining plates still looked dirty, even though they were in the clean bin. The salad bar definitely has limited options, and the dessert table was kind of a mess. Worst part was their ice cream machine was broken. read more

I entered the establishment and the first words I heard were, "we are out of shrimp, fries, etc." and is was 12 PM. Terrible food selection (quality), salad bar is deficient in offerings, soup selection was limited and quality was inferior. Atmosphere, what atmosphere? The booths were narrow and crowded, the salad bar area was not efficiently set-up, and the clientele were bumping into one another to access salad bar contents.. read more

My girlfriend's dad ordered a burger and wanted to add a side salad for $5.49 because her mom doesn't eat much. However, the guy at the counter said they couldn't add the salad if her mom was the one eating it. He insisted it had to be for the person who ordered the burger. They ended up making her pay for the salad bar instead, which was ridiculous--especially since she didn't eat any of it. She's diabetic and was dealing with issues adjusting to insulin. When we asked for a box to take home the $13 worth of soggy lettuce and croutons, the guy reluctantly agreed but made a big deal about it, saying, "Well, no we normally aren't allowed to but we'll do it for you." On top of that, my girlfriend didn't want a lot of food and tried to order from the kids' menu, but the guy said she couldn't because it was "for kids 10 and under." Seriously, who IDs an 11-year-old for a kids' menu? She explained she just wanted a grilled cheese, so he charged her for a kids' burger instead. i know some restaurants do decline adults ordering off the kids menu but this is Sizzler lmao even Elderwood lets you as a adult order off the kids menu Our server was nice, and the restaurant was clean--probably because nobody goes there. Honestly, it should stay that way unless you want an upset stomach and a bad time. read more

Our location in Oregon closed and we want to enjoy the salad bar. It seemed like this location was under staffed and the salad bar was out of items and some of the food looked old. We didn't get our table cleared once or offered a refill. I understand it's tough being short staffed, but this was really ridiculous. We also had 2 steak and lobster dinners and spent over $100 to eat here. Maybe we try another time. read more

We had dinner there tonight. The staff was very good and the manager did a great job. They made our experience nice do to their great service! Very good customer service indeed! read more

It was good fresh stuff at the salad bar updated , clean, a lot of fresh salad greens and toppings, a lot of mixed salad options, and a dessert bar with toppings read more

Honestly I don't like this place. I feel like I just threw $22 down the drain for the salad bar. If you're going for the "all you can eat buffet" don't because even though it's called "all you can eat" there's literally nothing there to eat except for salad and some stale dry little tacos. I did get pasta but tbh it wasn't good. It smelt like my feet when I wear my shoes without socks. I know that may sound really rude but it's the only way I can explain the buffet. If you went and actually liked it tell me what I'm doing wrong. Our waiter was really nice. Tbh and the Dr Pepper was pretty good too. Probably would be more mad if they found a way to ruin the Dr Pepper. That wasn't even the part that was bad. Instantly and I mean immediately all of our stomachs were hurting so bad... my siblings didn't make it to the toilet and the back seat smelt terrible which then caused me to throw up cause I can't stand the smell of poop.... Idk that was my experience..... 2/10 read more

My wife and her friends went in 4-17-25 at lunch time. Ordered the salad meal and no waiters had come to them for about 15 minutes to take there beverage order. And when the guy came over she asked him for the toast bread they give customers. He said ok and another 15 minutes go by and still no bread and the salad plates were starting to stack up. She finally go a lady that was working on the salad bar area. She went and got it but the waiter guy still never came by. Really he never brought the bread , never picked up the dishes, they will DEFINITELY NOT GO BACK. Service really sucks. Food good. Service sucked read more

Fantastic Dining Experience at Sizzler! I had a great experience at Sizzler! This restaurant is a true bang for your buck. I ordered the herbed chicken, and it was tasty. I added the shrimp skewers as an additional side, which came with a lemon-flavored rice pilaf. The salad bar has so much variety and was clean. The Texas toast is always my favorite. This is my dad's favorite place to dine. He ordered the burger, and we were told by the waiter that they source the beef from a good provider. My dad said the burger was delicious. Despite what people have been saying on this app, I can say as an educator and a certified foodie, Sizzler is an excellent place to bring your family, especially if you're on a budget due to the inflation in our economy. Highly recommended! read more

It was pretty clean in the restaurant. read more

The remodel I had hoped would bring some much needed life into this place. The food sadly did not make the cut. Bland, and stale. The desserts were hard as a crisp. The steak was seasoned well enough. Oh and if it's 114° skip this place. The A/C cannot keep up. Half of the customer seating area felt hot and suffocating. It's a skip from me. read more

This place just reopened a week ago after their remodel and it's awful! The salad bar is so small. The warm food options were so limited, compared to Fresno. They were out of everything. While standing at the salad bar you could hear other customers complaining how disappointed they were. No chicken nuggets. Asked the cook "what's the orange-ish looking sauce was" and he said "oh, it's supposed to be Alfredo sauce, don't eat that, we're gonna make more". Um, yikes. A friend of mine came here the night before and said horrible things as well, but we wanted to give the benefit of the doubt and try it for ourselves. So sad how bad it was. The team from the Fresno location needs to come down here and train Visalia because Fresno was so much better! read more

Giving this newly remodeled place 1 star is a gift! Terrible cooking. The cheese toast was soggy instead of crunchy. They didn't even bother toasting the bread. They were out of everything and had 1 man struggling to replenish their meager offerings. Most Sizzler restaurants are a vegetarian paradise, but this one, just forget about going. They don't even offer vegetarian beans for their nachos. A huge waste of money eat elsewhere. The remodel, ambiance, is stark. All white. Feels like your eating in a Walmart. All white. The whole place is cheap and stressful. Service was fine, but they desperately need to fire the cook they have and hire a new kitchen staff! read more

Wanted to give Sizzler another try since the remodel. For reference we went after the reopened post Covid and was disappointed. Less food options and everything just seemed sad. Even the workers. The remodel really helped. It's nice, clean, and just better. Some of the food options that were gone before are back. Salad bar had good options with fruit, pasta, macaroni, broccoli and other salads. Hot food: the mini fried chicken i always loved, nuggets, spaghetti with meatballs or Alfredo sauce, tacos, and something else i know I'm forgetting cause i was full (sorry didn't see pizza . . Soups there were 3 (broccoli cheddar, clam chowder and veggie) Dessert had ice cream, 2 pudding options, churros and brownies. Soda is also self serve now. We also ordered steak and shrimp, because this was our trip back to see if Sizzler redeemed itself. Steak was great, cooked to order and the fried shrimp/shrimp skewers were great. The staff were very nice and attentive. You can tell they were excited for the new look as well as having people back. Overall very happy that Sizzler is back and hoping they do well. It's nice having a buffet type option available again. read more
