normally this place is really good but went on a date there and it was extremely disappointed. Food was terrible and all we got were salads and onion rings. No diet soda and the food looked like maybe they were at the end of their supplies, I would be willing to go again in the future place is always really clean which I like read more

Dropped by on a Friday night and to my surprise the place was pretty empty. The menu has great selections and service was reasonably fast considering everything was cooked fresh. I appreciate the affordable prices, such as adding the salad on for $2.99 more, although I would charge $1 more and add shredded cheese. The lobster ravioli was phenomenal, especially with the bread and the extra sauce to dip it in! We are out of towners and we will be back! read more

The food is cooked fresh to order so be prepared to wait. The service is excellent. The ambience is amazing and the waitress is remarkable, she remembers faces. I highly recommend. I apologize. I don't have any pictures. I always forget sometimes to take pictures before I consume my food, but believe me it's worth stopping by. read more

My husband and I were looking for a burger place to go to, and we happen to bump into this place on Yosemite. By the far the BEST "CALIFORNIA BURGER"we've had in this town and the "CAJUN PASTA" was FIRE!!!! The customer service was amazing and let's not talk about how clean it was. Definitely on point. So we will definitely be coming here sooner than you think. read more

California Grill - Pork Chops and Veggies - Italian Near Me - Madera, California

While in town for a meeting I came across the California Grill looking for a place to eat close to my hotel. So I placed a takeout order of their Lobster Ravioli and was told the dish would be ready within 10-15 minutes. Given that the place was within a mile from where I was staying I got there ahead of time and took a few pictures of the restaurant. My order came out shortly after and I was on my way back to my hotel room. When I returned to my room I was pleasantly surprised at how much food I was given and it's definitely enough for two people. The Lobster Ravioli dish was still nice and hot. It was loaded with stuffed lobster ravioli and several large pieces of shrimp. While the dish was quite good the one thing it was missing the most was the lobster flavor. The shrimps on the other hand were delicious and proof that I didn't lose my sense of smell or taste. The small side salad was fresh but the garlic bread was too soggy and I wished it could have been a little bit more crunchy. Overall this was a good dining experience and most definitely I would come back for more. 3.5 Stars for reasonably priced & tasty food and friendly service. I'll be back. Enjoy and Bon Appétit read more

Food was delicious! I ordered the Cajun pasta. Portion sizes are well worth it for their price point. I'm glad I found this place on yelp. We stopped by for dinner on our way to from Modesto to Vegas. It's conveniently located fairly close to the freeway. Service was great, our sever was super friendly. Restaurant was clean & tidy, easy parking. I would definitely stop again if I'm on this route at some point in the future! :) read more

Absolutely delicious! I relied on Yelp to find us a yummy spot to eat while passing through Madera. This place did not disappoint! After asking the waitress for her top two favorite items, she suggested that we have a burger (forgive me I don't recall the name) that had sautéed mushrooms bacon cheese and a penne pasta with chicken and shrimp. Both dishes were absolutely yummy! Highly recommend!! read more

Staff were super friendly! I called literally 1 1/2 hour before closing time to see if they're taking dine-in and a family of 5, to my surprise they said yes and were very accommodating with us. Food was delicious!!! Pastas were cooked to perfection just like how I love them, al dente. It's also a plus that they have a kids' menu for my 3 children, they loved the fries, chicken strips, and Mac n Cheese. Only downside is they're located on a busy street and parking would be hard to find during busy hours. Beside that we will definitely go back. read more

COVID-19 My mother called in the order. She ordered a New York steak sandwich cooked medium with a side salad instead of fries/onion rings and an extra side salad. One w/ blue cheese and the other w/ vinaigrette dressing. The worker was nice and said it would be ready in 45 minutes. We went to go get it. We walked in and the place was empty. The worker was masked. It was paid for and we were told that it would be brought to the car when it was ready. We waited in the car and it was brought to us along with wishes for a good day! Appreciated! The NY steak sandwich was amazingly good! Wow! It had Swiss cheese, jalapenos, mushroom and grilled onions in it!The steak was cooked perfectly too! Yum! I enjoyed every bite! The side salad was fresh and delicious! My mother thought the food was good too! Fantastic lunch! Great service and delicious food! Highly recommended! read more

As I was sitting there eating the waitress approached me and asked me how it taste I said very good and she then proceeds to tell me the chef made me another plate of shrimp Alfredo. I said why she said he doesn't think he did a good job on the first one. I was like wow very good chef and takes pride in his cooking. Waitress really sweet and attentive.

I came here with my boss and my coworkers to celebrate a promotion in our unit. We arrived at California Grill around 12:30pm and was promptly seated. We had a party of 9 of us and there was only one waitress handling a full restaurant. Since Madera is small I saw a lot of familiar faces that I see in court working with lawyers for my job. This appears to be the lawyer hang out for sure. You know a restaurant is good when you can have lawyers, judges to construction workers dining in. I wish I knew the waitress/server name because we she did an amazing job. She took all of our orders. The menu is very diverse and my boss recommended the Shrimp Diabola pasta which was 12.99 or 14.99 not bad. The waitress said it was spicy but I love spicy. My pasta was so delicious and it had a plethora amount of shrimp and it was not spicy at all. It came with bread so yummy! I would definitely come back again. They have food for every taste bud you can imagine. I will be back to try out the other dishes. I left a nice tip for the waitress for handling all us plus additional people. Very happy with the service and food. read more

Food and service are amazing!! Baja fish and Cajun pasta are my favorite walking distance from my work is a plus!

Delicious! Intimate dining area. Super attentive; filled drinks whenever low, and reheated and boxed my coworkers meal so he could eat it at the hotel. read more

The dinner orders contain large portions, some bread, and a side salad. The salad if quite plain but not unappreciated. The staff was friendly and relatively prompt for a weeknight. The food is good but pretty basic home cooking, which isn't all bad depending on what you're looking for. The setting is kind of retro diner/taqueria. TVs offer entertainment. I guess this could be a 4 star spot if you ordered up with large portions and took some togo? read more

Decided to give this place a try via GrubHub today. Ordered the Bacon Cheese Burger and fries. Cooked to perfection. Fries did wilt a bit, but, still tasty. Restaurant called letting me know my order might be late as no driver could be found to pick up order. Order arrived with one minute to spare. Would order from this place again,but, use DoorDash. read more

I wasn't expecting too much, but was really pleasantly surprised by this place. Stopped for lunch on a road trip and was greeted by a very professional server who was knowledgeable about the menu. I got the Cajun pasta and it was delicious. The sauce was so creamy (I hate soupy pasta sauce from other places) and the Cajun flavor was in my face the way I like it. Variety of proteins made it fun to eat and the garlic bread hit the spot. Everyone else at the table loved their meal and I still talk about that pasta when I'm hungry at home. read more

$17 for a BLT, WTF I can buy a pound each ingredient for that and have 10 BLT's. What a thief !!

This restaurant has obvious disregard to public health and and rules regarding COVID. No employees wear masks as they interpret the ordinance to saying it is NOT mandated!! Well you are wrong and food service states it is mandated as well as those entering your restaurant have to be masked coming in. I loved eating the food from here well sorry no longer going to dine there as anybody who has such disregard to their patrons will not be getting my friends or my business!!! read more
