The saddest Shakeys... With the saddest salad bar with limpy lettuce, a few other choices.. not worth $9.99. Then came the saltiest fried chicken. I wanted the chicken Shakey's is know for. We got fried salt! Growing up with Shakey's being a place for Birthdays, family gatherings, or just to have some pizza, this location was so depressing! The one good thing here? Hmmm, the restrooms were clean. read more

We had my birthday party here at Shakey's on 4/25/26. It was amazing from start to finish! Hector, the manager is the best! From beginning to end he was on point! The food was great and hot and my guests were in heaven! He even let us bring the cake in earlier that day to keep in his walk-in for us! One less thing to worry about! This Shakey's has never disappointed my family ever! It is great to have a party there or to go for the bunch of lunch! We will defintely have another party there in the future! Hector deserves 100 stars! His employees were very attentive to our requests with smiles on their faces all the time! I recommend Shakey's for parties or just to have some great food! Well done Hector! You made my party awesome! Thank you so much Shakey's in Brea is the BEST!!! read more

You can't beat the buffet pricing! Quality was not the best but it's a kids place so it was okay. Service was great! It was 80 degrees inside it's like they're trying to sweat you out of there. read more

You cannot match this taste anywhere else only Shakey's can make a perfect mojo! The pizza is the best quality of ingredients with perfect consistency with topping and sauce! The service was impeccable and friendly! Just an all around best place to enjoy PIZZA! Vibes are popping! Bring your dollars for the arcade read more

Recently stopped by to get hit with some shakeys nostalgia, and i definitely had some thoughts. This location seems to be a bit smaller at least when it comes to the salad bar side of things. I truly enjoyed the fried chicken it definitely hit like it used to back in the day and the mojos were on point. the only thing i was disappointed with was the pizza, it didn't really taste how it used to it's almost more like chucky cheese pizza if anything now. read more

The two of us went for dinner around 6:30 pm on a weekday and shared the Medium PCM (pizza, chicken, and mojos) ($34.99), which the menu says serves three to four people. The 12-inch, medium-size pizza was thinly sliced. It included one each of a fried chicken breast, thigh, leg, and wing. The mojos, provided in a good portion, were sliced potato rounds. The food was all hot and tasty. The cashier gave us a buzzer but provided the food to our table. The pizza was sliced well. While it's not my favorite pizza, it still tasted really good. The fried chicken is definitely oily and could taste a little too salty at times. The chicken's high temperature encouraged me to eat more slowly. The mojos were also nicely hot but a little oily. Although the parking lot had a lot of cars, the restaurant was almost empty. The ambience was a little quiet with a radio playing classic rock music (with advertisements) and TVs silently broadcasting sports and news. There's ketchup and hot sauce near the front. Before we ate, I washed my hands in the restroom, especially as the condiments are shared among the restaurant. Thankfully, the restroom was clean. read more

Shakey's Pizza Parlor - M PCM - Pizza Near Me - Brea, California

Love Shakey's in Brea. I ordered online for a later pick-up so I could grab it on my way home from work. Arrived at the time I specified and my order was ready, hot and correct. The restaurant was clean and welcoming. I almost wanted to hit the arcade there first. I got the food home and it was delicious. My son loved it too. We got a pan pepperoni pizza and an order of Mojos. So good. I am glad Shakey's is still delicious and still around. Well done Shakey's Brea. read more

This the best shakeys around. The chicken is always fresh and flavorful. The buffet is always clean and fresh. Always so good. They do special request for pizza for the buffet. The owner is so nice and staff is always helpful. read more

After a long day at the Brea mall shopping we came for dinner at this location, which is new for us. I've been going to shakeys since I was a kid and have gone to plenty of different locations but this probably been the most disappointing one. First off there's a heat wave and it was so hot inside the restaurant which made it uncomfortable to hang out. We ordered our usual large pcm, 3 drinks and a salad bar. Have to say right off the bat the ice machine wasn't working so they had a bag of ice to give out ice for drinks. Most of the sodas were very flat we just had to settle for tea. Then the salad bar had very few options... big chunks of ice berg lettuce (not a typical bagged salad with bits of cabbage or romaine lettuce) on top ice so it was very wet. Carrots were in foggy slimy water, not much topping to choose from either. Cottage cheese was going bad because it tasted pretty spoiled plus No bacon bits. We got our food and the pizza was a little black and burnt on top, and we're okay with that. But the pizza tasted very odd and the dough was very hard like cardboard, which is unfortunate because I love shakeys pizza so much. And when you've grown up on it you know what it's supposed to taste like and it wasn't good. Chicken was very good and fresh and so were the mojos so no complaints here. No tvs on, just loud static radio. And lastly the sad little gaming area, it was all claw/vending machines no actual interacting games. I've had my son's bdays at other locations and I love that they still have a prize counter and games but this one is very disappointing. If I had to recommend this location to anyone I would not, solely on the pizza and gaming area alone. If there isn't fun to be had at the gaming at least the least you would eat some good pizza but isn't an option either. :( read more

Service was great! Food was as expected. The fried chicken and fries were good! The unlimited salad bar was good as well. It wasn't crowded when we went which was nice. The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because out of the 6 high chairs only 1 had a working seat belt and none of them were really clean. read more

Clean salad bar, at least at dinner time. Fried chicken is surprisingly good. Wings are not sauced, and you have to dress them yourself with tapatio or red hot from the to-go station. Beer was cold, and glasses chilled, although $8 for a regular draft glass. Food is consistent and staff is fairly nice, if not exhausted. It's just getting expensive to eat out here.

I brought my dad here for the all you can eat brunch and he really enjoyed it. The man at the cashier was great and very helpful. He gave a punch card to come back and to work our way to earn a free meal which I thought was really cool. The place gets really packed with kids who come after their sports games so beware of that. It can get pretty loud but they didn't bother us. Plus, there is an arcade so you will hear the kids cheering and screaming while playing. As for the food, the salad bar has some pretty good selections. Of course there is a salad option with the different fix ins like croutons and different types of dressing. There are some pasta and potato salads. On the hot side, they have grilled chicken, fried chicken, mojo potatoes, Mac n cheese, spaghetti and meatballs, and of course pizza. The workers constantly come out to clean the area so every time we went up to get seconds, it was clean. To ensure cleanliness, they also encourage you to use a new plate which you can receive from the register. Overall, the brunch here has always been a hit no matter which location I go to. It was our first time at this one and we couldn't be more impressed and satisfied as we were this day. Happy brunchin! read more

Chicken was good salad was good. Pizza was great. The only problem I have is I miss the old mojos. They don't have the original coating. I don't know why, but they don't. I wish I wish to happen when you get older. No real complaint I had a great time read more

We were just turned away 45 minutes before they closed the person working that said that they only did to go orders. We just left. Employee was very rude as well. The salad bar was still out. It's very strange that we could not eat there. I will not be returning. I understand that you don't want to clean up after you cleaned, but you just lost a customer. I hope the manager gets a hold of this one. read more

This is not my usual Shakey's, but we were in the area and wanted to do the bunch of lunch so decided to give this location a try. The parking lot is a decent size. There are other business in the same shopping complex but it was still easy to find parking right in front. We got there maybe 15 minutes before they opened and there were a few people in line and some people who have already started eating. The cashier in the front, I wish I would have got his name, was super friendly and since we had already seen that there was no pan pepperoni or cheese pizza, for my son, we asked him if we could place an order for those and he happily let the cooks in the back know. Now one issue I had was there was no pizza that was just plain peperoni and cheese it had other items added. You would think at a buffet they would have the most popular items. Yes, we placed an order for what we wanted but still there was really no other options for us or especially my son who is a picky eater. It took about 20 minutes for the pizza we wanted to come out but took about an additonal 10 minutes for my sons cheese to come out. When we asked another worker he told us the cheese pizza was just placed and there were tons of other request in front of us. This was obviously not true as we placed them both at the same time. The first worker who we initial placed the request with saw what was happening and insured us it would be coming up next. He was right as within a few minutes it was out. So again, I wish I would have got the young man's name, but he is what honestly made me change this review from being a 3 star to a 4-star review. As far as seating this location is pretty decently sized. The location I normally go to is a bit bigger, but I did not see anyone struggling to find a seat. There is also a small arcade for the kids. Each game seems to be about $1. This location is a little out of my way, so I don't see myself coming back anytime soon but for a Shakey's bunch of lunch it served its purpose. read more

It's been a long time since we did the lunch buffet at Shakey's so we decided to try it again for old time's sake. There's plenty of parking spaces as business around Shakey's we're not operating during the weekends. Once you enter, it's a time warp -- same, old 80s look and furnitures looked like it haven't been refreshed. The food bar seems very limited. For a pizza place, the pizza was not as good as expected and not as good as I remember. The fried chickens were not replenished. The quality went down there. The potato wedges were great and as good as I remember. The salad I never bother eating because who has time for that. All in all, it was ok but not great. Some place to go if you can't think of anything better to eat for lunch. read more

This is Shakeys, not CPK people. Their lunch buffet is a great deal. Especially if you like their chicken and mojos, and want an endless amount. The salad bar is average, nothing special but they have the basics and it's fresh. Their hot items are pretty good. Their mashed potatoes and gravy remind me of KFC - which I like. Other items are okay, but the chicken (fried and roasted) and mojos are the stars. Both types of chicken are juicy and flavorful. The fried checked has an excellent crust and is a really good fried chicken overall. Pizzas are okay. Crust is average, but they do put a good amount of ingredients and provide a good selection of pizza types. The service here is very good. Staff is friendly and they do a great job making sure the buffet items are well stocked. The interior is a little dated, but clean and organized. I've only been here for their lunch buffet and it's a good deal especially if you like chicken, mojos, and pizza. read more

Shakey's Pizza Parlor - Pizza Near Me - Brea, California

Wow didn't realize there's still a Shakey's around especially in our neighboring city. Hubby one evening was craving for some mojo's. I yelped and saw one around. Went here for dinner. There was only 2 other parties here. Very big & spacious here. The seats and tables seem good. Not filthy like other reviewers. Bathroom were decent also. Have a mini arcade for entertainment. Hubby ordered fried chicken that came w mojos and pizza. Everything was good except I'm not a fan of their pizza. It somewhat have a slight sour taste to the pizza. Guess the hubby mentioned it's their Marinara or pizza sauce that has more vinegar on it. He recalls their pizza always taste like that ‍ Besides that. Everything was fine/decent. Not sure if This would be a 1st choice to come back here for fried chicken & pizza. But it did satisfy the hubby's craving of mojo potatoes. read more

I remember going to Shakey's as a kid but haven't been to one in decades. Since I was in the neighborhood, I thought I'd check it out and grab a pizza to go. Walking in, I remembered why I came here as a kid, it's totally still for kids. In fact, there was a good-sized birthday party happening in the main room. That meant kids were running around and pretty much the entire center of the dining room was taken up. There is a room on the side, but it was also full a kids. Not a bad thing, just something to point out if you're thinking about coming here on a Sunday afternoon. They do have an all you can eat buffet. What I found interesting is most of it wasn't pizza, but chicken, some potato looking things, cheesy garlic bread, along with some pasta like Mac and Cheese. Finally, there were 2 pizza's a the end of the counter. Honestly, it was a little dirty and not very appetizing. There's a game room in the back with mostly claw type games. I saw 1 video game and an air hockey game, which of course, just adds to the loudness. I went to place my order and the girl couldn't care less. I asked if they had thick crust, and she said yes. Well, turns out, they only have 1 crust. I told her to order to go and she gave me my receipt with no verbal acknowledgement. I didn't know if they would call my name, a number, or just bring it to me. So, I sat down at a table for 2, next to the party, and just kept my eye out for my pizza. It was maybe 10 minutes and nice gentleman came out and asked if I had ordered a pizza. I said that was mine and he smiled and gave me a pleasant "here you go". He was the nicest person I ran into during the whole experience. The good thing was the pizza was almost exactly how I remembered it as a kid. I love their sauce as it has a bit of kick to it. And for some reason, I actually like the puffy spots of crust with no sauce and barely any cheese. I know it's weird, but I do. Honestly, I don't live near this area, but I might get another pizza to go if I'm heading home and want to bring home dinner. But I think I'll visit on a weekday, and when school is in session. read more

Great place for an easy and quick lunch if you go with their AYCE buffet which includes salad items, various pizzas, fried chicken, mojo potatoes, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, and steamed veggies. Kids prices appear to be based on their age and were very reasonable. Fried chicken and pizzas were solid. Other food items were a-okay but the value is definitely the draw. The cashier was nice. Don't expect anyone to pick up your plates for you. You can dump it in a bin yourself before you grab a clean one. There's also an area with some games. Very family friendly and clean when we came in a weekday. read more

This poor place has such awful reviews. It was not as bad as people say. You just need to adjust expectations. I was very reluctant to go here but came and did a quick walkthrough to ensure decency before deciding to stay to dine for the Bunch of Lunch from 11-2pm. It wasn't too busy just 2 or 3 parties dining. Yes, it is a bit grimy but not that bad if you wipe down your seat and tables before sitting. We used napkins to handle the buffet bar tongs for safety. It was easy to get new plates for the buffet. The food was brought out regularly and quite fresh. Fried chicken was piping hot! The juices flying once you cut into it with a fork and as you tear each chunk of meat, steam is oozing out of it! Super hot, fresh, and juicy!! The food was good!! Stick to the fried chicken, pizza, and mojos. I'd come back. Ate quick and scrammed to avoid the prime time lunch crowd. Some things to remember is, don't go when it's a full house or nearing it basically go early and use napkins to use the buffet tongs or bring your own serving gloves. Must adjust expectations. I didn't expect service and you shouldn't either you'll just be disappointed. Service here is the bare bare minimum. This kind of buffet is simple self-service and quick lunch. Enjoy your visit if you decide to give it a go! read more

Came to this hidden gem and it was nice! Small inside but it was empty so it worked out. The food was as expected, however I wish they would have rotated the pizza more regarding toppings. I over heard another guest request cheese pizza due to allergies however after asking twice, it never came out. The layout seems backwards to me, the line to pay blends in with the bunch a lunch line causing some congestion. I'm giving it 4 stars, however, they would have received 5 if they would have been on top of their discard plates. They began to quickly pile up once the lunch rush came in. It seemed as though they may have been under staffed, so hopefully they resolve that soon. read more
