The quality of the food has gone down a lot since we used to eat at the south Salem Sizzler years ago. It's too expensive for what you receive. Even a salad is overpriced. read more

Horrible selection on the salad bar. Our "server" called us sweetie and honey? What's up with that? The garlic bread is still delicious.

I was actually sort of excited to find out that Albany had a sizzler. We came to Albany for a dog show at the Expo and thought on they had great salad bar and steaks fairly good. Please keep in mind this is NOT Ruth Chris. This is cheaper cuts but also reflects in price. Salad bar was on badly need of restocking. Only once associate was available and was hard for him to catch up. Steak was extremely over seasoned and salty. I believe our order was lost. Took over 30 min. No staff member checking in on us. I had to literally get up and hunt one down. I asked for new steak and this time no seasoning. 5 min and came out perfectly cooked. Tried to speak to the manager and he was abrupt and dismissive. Did not want to hear any comments. Place needs a revamp. read more

My husband and I were heading towards the Burgerville, when he saw Sizzler and was excited to relive some childhood experiences that took place probably 40 years ago. Unfortunately, he was disappointed, as the Malibu chicken, which he loved as a youth, apparently had not kept up with his taste as an adult. I had an unlimited salad bar, which was not bad but nothing super special either. It wasn't hard to find things that were probably gluten-free. The service was friendly. One thing we weren't expecting was that you basically order the food as soon as you walk in, and then they bring it to you at your table. If you want to tip in cash, you can put it on your credit card and then they will hand you the cash to leave on your table. A number of loud and disjointed conversations, and a young person who felt compelled to stand next to the salad bar, dancing for an extended period of time, added to the surreal experience. read more

Sizzler - Complementary cheesy bread - Seafood Near Me - Albany, Oregon

Sizzler review 3 stars Been many years since last time at a Sizzler. Some good aspects, but I'm disappointed. Wilted lettuce. Cheese bread is very good but greasy. Chicken wings are very good, the most popular item on the salad bar. Have real bacon bits. Salad items in the photo were what was expected for taste, good. Fake crab salad was good. Soups were chicken noodle and clam chowder. My favorite thing is to add real bacon crumbles to clam chowder. Cantaloupe is sweet. Missed on the honeydew. Black coffee is good. Sugar options are standard white, pink, and yellow. French fries have the same seasoning as the chicken wings and are crispy when hot. Gone is the self-serve ice cream, and now it has ice cream cups and a few topping options. The establishment is clean. Service was excellent. Lots of people are in the restaurant. For an entree and side salad bar, sadly, it is not worth it despite key items tasting good. read more

Sizzler was my favorite as so I absolutely had to stop when we passed this one on the way home from a road trip! Firstly, the front hostess was SO kind to everyone in the line including myself. Secondly, you could tell the waitress taking care of us was a well-experienced server; she was so attentive and sweet even though we only ordered the salad bar lol. She noticed we were charged for cheese toast when we shouldn't have been and refunded us immediately, and then brought us a ton of extra yummy cheese toast. The salad bar was exactly as I remembered and we enjoyed it thoroughly! The ice cream consistency was perfectly nostalgic too. From the sweet waitress and hostess, to the manager dropping by, seeing the quality check happening at the salad bar, and eavesdropping around me, I could tell the employees care a lot about this restaurant and the customers who eat here regularly. It was really wholesome and I had an incredible experience. read more

This particular location seems fine for the buffet. I, unfortunately, got the steak and unlimited shrimp. The waitress came a total of 2 times, once to get out ticket, then to deliver my food. So my shrimp was very limited. I do not recommend read more

Wanted an old school salad bar and haven't been to a Sizzler in decades. It was great. Same cheese toast I remember, well stocked salad bar, even the iced tea was on point. Place was clean with music playing at the perfect volume and friendly, attentive staff. Will be back. read more

Insulted by the tall many with white hair and glasses at the ordering phase of our visit. Encountered a rude "red haired" male salad bar attendant. We came at 11:00 a.m. when they opened. We did not get to enjoy a completely set up soup and salad bar as it wasn't done being set up when we got there at opening. Though we were definitely charged full price for a less than full and completed soup and salad bar. The taco meat was very greasy and super salty...gross. The drinking cups were old and didn't appear to be clean. We will never go the the Albany, Oregon Sizzler again. It was a 90 minute drive to the location. I have always enjoyed the Malibu chicken, I went to celebrate my work anniversary. I will go to Eugene from now on as that Sizzler seems to be grateful and hospitable for their customers. read more

Post covid The service was pretty good, the food potions shrunk in size as you can see from my Malibu chicken that I hadn't touched yet, and was barely bigger than the souffle cup. No labels on the salad bar like it used to. Was so looking forward to eating here and was disappointed read more

Typical sizzler location, had the salad bar and the food was as expected, clam chowder was good, taco and chicken wings were good. Service was average and staff was friendly. Would stop in again when in the area. read more

Amazing food at reasonable prices. Our server, Sage, had a smile that lit up the room, with a personality to match. She was kind enough to take some pictures of our group. We have eaten here occasionally over a number of years and will come back. Recommended! read more

Great tasty steak and cheesy bread. Foods at hot/salad bar were delicious - great variety. Our server Mel was amazing. Friendly, helpful - one of the best servers I've ever had. Try this place out. You will be glad you did. read more

Slow service. Rude waitress. The food was overcooked when it was delivered. It took an hour to get the food. The white person (she) did not check back and see if there was anything she could do or if we were okay. We won't be going back to this sizzler anyway or probably any of them. Was a waste of time. Have had good service there in the past but not this time and not going to risk it again read more

Overall, the place was good. Service could be better. I had to wait and wait and wait if I needed anything additional. I ordered a steak and potato and that delicious garlic bread, plus the salad bar. I really do not know why I do this because I fill up on the salad bar. I guess I end up with 2 meals (steak was eaten later). The salad bar is a meal on it's own. I definitely recommend visiting. If for nothing else, the salad bar and the toast. Yum! If I am in the neighborhood, I will stop by again. ........ .. ...... .. . read more

Awesome service! Staff was friendly and atmosphere was great! Awesome salmon and salad bar!! read more

5/1/22 4:00pm 2148 Santiam Hwy SE, Albany, OR 97322 Sizzler we drove all the way here from Vancouver Washington just to be disappointed with not only the service of most but the food as well. The one that was supposed to take care of the salad bar went on l break without filling up the salad bar first. Manager: David All I got was one excuse after another when I brought up to him how the floors were greasy and the food was cold and old and out of the temperature danger zone. His excuse was he is short handed and he is working three different positions. What troubles me the most is the temperature danger zone and the arguments I heard in the back with employees and managers duking it out. If I could hear it in the lobby who else can hear it? Host: Brandon Was dressed unprofessional, the way he represents the face of Sizzler as soon as someone walks through that door should have a smile and dress appropriately. No professionalism what so ever. Sleeves rolled up showing tattoos, scruffy, untrimmed beard, no smile with an attitude of not wanting to be there. Server: Fernando You are the only one that actually made this visit pleasant, you were fast and sufficient, you took it upon yourself to do your absolute best to make sure all tables are served in a timely manner, and busted and floors cleaned, WITH NO COMPLAINTS!!! read more

First of all I love sizzler, always have since I was a kid. However this was the worst experience I have ever had. My husband and I only get a date night once in a while and we chose here which I will never return. The waitress came over to my table looking at my order slip and said "oh you're not the table I am looking for, but I'lol take that for you." She took our ticket and walked away then 15 minutes later showed up with our toast. We were never given Utensils we had to go get them ourselves. Then we waited 45 minutes for ice cold food that I paid 80 dollars for. My Malibu chicken was ice cold and my husband's steak was lukewarm and his lobster was ice cold. When I tried looking for someone no one could be found. When I tried to waive a waitress down she looked at me and just walked past us. Then after we were done it took 30 minutes of us trying to waive someone down for someone to come over and get us to go boxes... We got the to go boxes faster than the cold food..... There were no managers to find to complain either. needless to say the worst experience I have ever had!!!!! I will never go back if I could rate a 0 stars I would!!!! read more

Ok as a place I went as a young boy with my mother and father as a family traditional once maybe twice a week dine out was a good. But recently I'm disappointed in the food that I ordered. Steak, baked potato and a salad. Well the salad was good and the bake potato was good and well the fat I didn't enjoy and when I mentioned it to the waitress she looked at me in a state of disbelief and very apologetic and a little sad but as she took it back and then brought it back at stated sorry. I was disappointed in the quality of food. But I've heard and now see that the place went down hill some. I won't be going back there anytime soon. But I'm fair and feel every one should give it a try and get your own opinion. Disappointed read more

Absolutely the most pathetic Sizzler ever. Salad bar items were almost nil and what was there looked like they had been sitting for hours on end. The hot items were not even hot. The cold ones were warm. And what 4 of us had, the food was horrible. None of us finished what we had. Needless to say, we will never be back. read more

Went for lunch in Albany. We live in Dallas so was an exploration trip. I hadn't eaten at a sizzler in 10 years. Food was what I expected. Disappointed they did away with some of their lunch entries but has been 10 years. Toast is always a highlight. I got soup & salad and wife got 6oz steak with salad. Food was fresh, service was great. Will go back next time in the area. read more

The only reason I am giving them one star is because of the hostess. She was very personable, answered all of questions, and was willing to get us our drinks if we didn't get them in a timely manner The food is not good. Our fried chicken was not cooked, and when sent it back the waiter did not seem concerned. The taco shells were stale. The green salad was ok, after you picked around all the brown pieces, and forget getting soup since they had no bowls or cups to put it in. Nothing has a label, so your pretty much guessing at what your getting. You have to hunt down someone, so they can refill everything and "freshen" it up. We will not be coming back and do not recommend it. read more

Full disclosure we only got the salad bar. I like that you get your own plates and drinks here. There was a large selection for the salad bar and it was really clean. Besides salad there's some mac/potato and pasta salad, chicken, corn dogs, nachos, fruit, and a few other various items with an ice cream bar for dessert. I think it was like $15 per person. read more

Well they don't have a zero zero for service 0 for the salad bar. Went in 5:00 the salad bar the nacho bar was out of chips for the nachos the other hot food was gone I ordered a lemonade and sat there for 15 minutes waiting for somebody to get me my lemonade I finally had to get up and go find somebody and ask for it then it took another 5 minutes, went to order after waiting for my son the stood there for 10 minutes and there was a gentleman ahead of us and there was nobody to take our food order so we left very dissatisfied. Would I recommend it, oh hell no!!! Shame on Sizzler read more

I stopped at the Albany Sizzler for a late lunch. I was wanting some Malibu Chicken and salad bar. I was not disappointed. Food was good along with the service. read more

What one would expect at a Salad bar with various options with soup, a taco bar and a couple hot items. The steaks are average but tasty. Most elderly folks would like this place. read more

My husband n I had a wonderful lunch yesterday. The waitress was spot on was always checking in on us. Salad bar was clean n fresh husband steak n all you can eat shrimp was great. Enjoyed everything read more

The stars are for the food, not the service. The food was amazing. The service was horrible. My waitress walked by my table, grabbed my receipt order and walked away without saying a word. Then, she came back with some bread, tossed it on the table and said, "here you go" and walked away. My food was delivered while I was at the salad bar. I was not greeted or checked on the entire time. I had to find someone to ask for a to go box. At least the food was good. read more

I spent almost $100 for three people to eat. The only acceptable food was the salad from the salad bar. Everything that was prepared by the cook was awful. The mashed potatoes were instant mashed potatoes, the steak was not cooked the way we requested, the steak was also a terrible quality. The shrimp tasted like frozen shrimp and were soggy. We will never return to Sizzler. Don't waste your time or money. Go somewhere else read more

Food was horrible ordered steak and bake potato and 1 trip thru salad bar, Steak was so tough you couldn't chew it, One trip thru is a little bowl they give you and tell you greens only, no soups or desserts or taco bar. Won't be back. read more

Had not been to a sizzler in 30 years. The food was cooked to perfection, served fast!! The salad bar was top notch. Fresh and very well maintained read more

Have to self serve Pepsi, they bring condiments, won't be back! I don't use self checkout either at other establishments either

We used to eat at Sizzler in Portland, then in Salem when we moved there. We were sorry to see them close. Never knew quite why, as they were both decent places to eat for the money. We decided to drive to Albany to try that one. It's basically the same as the other Sizzlers we're. Decent food for a decent price. The staff were the same caliber or better than most places in the same price range. I find that since the pandemic anyone is lucky to even have employees for way more pay than they deserve. I will definitely go there again. read more

Could not cut chicken even with a steak knife. Husband meal was cold. Aunts only eatable part of meal was French fries.

Lol well... how can I start... The salad bar was empty when we arrived. It got 15 minutes for them to refill the greens. I ordered the steak and shrimp. It was okay. The shrimp had more breading then actually shrimp. The veggies, broccoli and carrots looked suspicious and tasteless. I won't be back read more

The Sizzlers of long ago have passed especially the establishment that was in Corvallis I have been to the Sizzler here in Albany Oregon and it has surpassed everything that I have thought of when I order a big steak that reminds me of when I used to live in eastern Oregon that's all they serve was nice thick rare steaks and big baked potatoes with everything on them and usually it was with mushrooms or usually corn a side dish, but this is just a fantastic place to go to take a friend When the Crowds aren't High. I know it's kid friendly and things like that I'm not a person that eats well around uncontrolled kids that's just my own opinion I think it is it is their parents responsibility to keep them controlled and at their seat. I'm glad there's no video games and they're so all they have to do is concentrate on eating. But I do love this place read more

This is a super value for awesome food...Sad to read about all the so-called foodies who think they should be critical...C'MON MAN. This place ROCKS, especially now that Paul is in command. Thanks, and keep on bringing awesome grub. read more

There was a Chicken in Oregon who lived a long, long life full of adventure and danger. He joined the Navy and served in Iraq, but alas after 14 years Sizzler caught him and put him on my plate and called it dinner. Tonight we drove over in the rain to find a terrible dinner with a road tough Chicken and poor quality food. Take my advise and find a nice Homeless shelter you'll get a better meal. And it won't cost you an arm & Leg!! read more

Great to be back. Love the employees here, very nice and friendly and very attentive.
