Jambalaya
Dean R.

Been here before and was iffy on recommendations. Tonight is different. Alyssa at the bar is a joy. She is friendly, talkative, Got oysters and jambalaya. Unless you've shucked the oysters wrong all good. Onto the jambalaya. Shrimp were cooked really well. Overall taste was great. Alyssa was dead on with her recommendation Place is a dive but a great place. Not going to lie. Last time I was here the server sucked. Alyssa gets it. She knows how to greet a non regular Really good place. Just hope Alyssa is at bar if you sit there

Oyster basket with side of slaw for extra $.75.

Ambience. C Service. A Food. A Price. A Hot July 2026...no one sitting outside in 96° heat. Heh Thank goodness for air conditioning... Community picnic tables to share. Seat your self.... And if a friendly busy server doesn't see you wave them down .... And say Hey ...nicely. Today took a little longer to get food as I heard the my were low in staff ...no problem as long as you let us know. Love the specials during lunch. Always get the catfish or shrimp baskets. With slaw on the side and fries. Delicious. Fiend got the grilled talapia which also looked good and he ate it ALL , so must have been good! All washed down with southern tea! YOU can tap your phone to pay, albeit, you must go up to a register to tap the sensor. I am FaN!

Shrimp and grits

Great food at a great price. Rustic atmosphere. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. I had lime garlic shrimp and my husband shrimp and grits. both delicious. They make their own bread. Yum. Came back tonight .

The food here is good! Especially the crawfish tails! The shrimp and fried oysters were good too. I came in hungry and left full. Somehow I managed to have left overs. It does get busy during dinner and when the weather is nice, grab a seat on the outside.

The customer service here is awesome. To say this is my first time coming here I love it. The food taste amazing and the alcoholic beverages are to die for my drink didn't last 2 seconds. I definitely rate this a 10 out of 10. The have some relaxing music playing and it's not to loud in here at all. I wish the would have some regular tables for disabled customers but the food is good!

This was our first time here, and we were thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxed and inviting. Our waitress was exceptional--extremely friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. We received excellent recommendations and had a fantastic dining experience. The food was perfectly seasoned and delicious. We're definitely planning to return.

Somewhat mixed experience, some of it was excellent. The calamari was 10/10, absolutely no notes…read more Some of it wasn't great. I'm going to try to separate my 'tastes' from the dishes as presented. My wife's Bolognese was absolutely delicious and very well seasoned, and the cheesecake was fantastic. My wife thought it had too much crumble; I consider that a feature and would absolutely get that again. The salads were dandelion greens and they were far more bitter than I like, and a generous dose of dressing, something acidic would cover it, or something sweet. The bites I had with tomato were good. But I couldn't really finish it. The big problem was spaghetti with Sunday gravy. It was a huge disappointment. The pasta itself was excellent and the meatballs were okay, but the sauce was surprisingly bland and under-seasoned, especially for a $30+ entrée. It tasted more like plain tomato sauce than the rich, deeply flavored hardy sunday gravy that fully of meaty and salty flavors I was expecting. I do NOT salt my dishes at the table because I season them thru the cook. I wish there were salt and pepper at the table tonight though. The Sunday Gravy tasted decidedly like pure puréed tomato with a few meatballs added after the fact. They were dry and clearly not cooked with the sauce. I wish they had been. There are definitely things here I'd happily order again. Others I want to try. I'd just skip the spaghetti, especially at that price point.

Another overall outstanding experience at this resturant. Excellent seafood specials that are…read moreunique for an inland location. Service is pleasant and efficient. On time but never rushed Veal Parm some of the best in the region. Overall 5 star experience

Hadn't been to California Dreaming in a bit so met friends for drinks tonight. Bustling during rush…read morehour on a weekday (Tuesday), I was glad I made a reservation. The restaurant is aging gracefully; interiors haven't changed in some time. Servers were fast and friendly. The food is a known quantity; always good hot and tasty. I just reminded myself to go more often.

After an initial terrible start, California Dreaming has had a heck of a hot streak for me. That…read morestreak ended today. I ordered the Cali Bowl - Miso Salmon (added blackened shrimp) and fries WITH NO SALT as an APPETIZER! My buddy orders wings and a salad. His salad comes out promptly but no fries. The food comes out shortly after and he says the wings are great. Great for him! My fries finally make an appearance and are overly salty. I reminded the waitress they were requested unsalted so she took them back. By the time she'd returned with the new batch of fries, which was quite prompt, I'd mixed the ingredients of my Cali Bowl only to discover that it was lukewarm at best. The fries tasted refried, soaked with grease. The third time was a charm for the fries. I'd mentioned temperature of the bowl and although she'd offer to have it remade, it was quicker to reheat it, thus my request. It came back slightly warmer but not enough to eat. At this point, I was over it and just packed it up to take home. It wasn't the best visit but it definitely wasn't the worst. The croissants are the reason I'm sure I'll be back.
