We were on a business trip & this place was recommended by our hotel staff. You definitely need to get an order of the croissants! They are delicious!!! My husband got Tuna Poke bowl & I got fried shrimp. It was all fantastic. Our waitress, Melissa, made the experience so great. She is one of the sweetest, kindest people I have ever met. Definitely ask for her if you go!

My family and I dined here Easter Sunday. We were seated right away. For drinks, ordered the dreaming margarita and old fashioned. We ordered the croissants as an app. For our entrees, we ordered the fried shrimp, chicken sandwich, side of pasta and my daughter got a cheeseburger. We also got salads as well. For dessert we had the chocolate brownie. My drink(margarita) was weak and for an almost 11 dollar drink, I expected better. The croissants were good but could’ve cooked more. My fried shrimp entree was seasoned well and overall good. My daughter enjoyed her cheeseburger. My husband thought the chicken sandwich was just okay. Dessert was good as well. Everything was good but it could been of better quality but The service was amazing. I would give it a 3.5 but since I can’t I will give it a 3. I would come back since my daughter does like it.

We very much enjoyed the food and service. My rack of ribs were cooked perfectly with just enough char to add flavor, my wife’s Miso Salmon was very good also. My daughter had the filet steak and it was a good, but at $30+ I believe it to be a good bit over priced. We all had ceaser salads and also an appetizer of the croissants which were amazing, we were excited to have more of them come with the salads. Can’t forget about the mashed potatoes, they need absolutely nothing added to them, very good

Food was good, not pricey but portion size needs to go waaay up. Thought it was gonna be an expensive joint but nah wasn’t. I’d say definitely worth checking out

I don’t recommend bbq chicken nacho appetizer. We didn’t enjoy it, the baked potato soup was just alright. My salmon has no flavor. There is nothing special about our meal. The sweet tea was way tooo sweet. The restaurant itself is beautiful and spacious.

Perhaps the name is a bit deceiving, but I was expecting better. My steak was a bit undercooked and nothing special about my potato. The bbq nachos were ok. Maybe it was an off day, but I hate paying for off days

I flew in the day I ate there and I was soooo excited because I haven’t been to a California Dreaming for about 8 years BUT I remember the things I like from here. The salad and the Tijuana wings. I was EXCITED! Well that excitement was cut short because they don’t serve the wings anymore . Bummer. The salad was still a favorite and I ordered the chicken strips which were really good. Why do restaurants get rid of favorites. I’ll have to fly back soon but now I know to not get excited about anything again. BTW the bleu cheese dressing is amazing but not without the wings. The 2 just go together. The waitress told me that they had them for Superbowl but who has a year to wait . I will do another review because I can’t think of the young lady who waited on me and I want to acknowledge her. She was really sweet. I’ll look back at my receipt

This location has the appearance of a cattle with large windows, but the view is of the interstate. Food came out fast and the server was attentive. My husband was not a fan of his meal, but I enjoyed my salad.

Went to California Dreaming with a small group while we were in town. The atmosphere was fun. The croissants served at the table were sinfully good. I had a blackened chicken pasta dish that was good- nothing stellar or unforgettable, just good. I really liked the Cherry Limeade hard seltzer drink I ordered. Overall it was good. One of our group had an issue with his meal, but they were super nice about it and offered to replace it..they also comped it for him. Id definitely go back.
