Does not even deserve a 1. Everything was horrible! Broken AC made it very uncomfortable. Woman behind counter was rude and did not take our order properly. I tried to ask questions about the menu she was short with me and did not give me correct information. I would think with the discomfort of no air and fans not running would at least warrant some consideration from staff and at the very least complimentary beverages. We will never come back here! Do yourself a favor and do NOT waste your time or your money! read more

Super good Customer Service very attentive . Thank you to the Cashier's Esteban and Edgar the Manager Pedro, very Polite food was excellent and the Restaurant very Clean. read more

This was my second time coming to this location and I have to say I've been disappointed both times. My biggest problem is the food from the salad bar. I usually just go with the whole buffet bc it's easier and gives me more options. Unfortunately both times I've came here the food has been cold,No flavor or watery. I have found some stuff I will eat but most of the food is just bad. I didn't give it a 1 star because I will admit the service was amazing. The employees are kind,fast and just overall nice. The place wasn't packed both the times I've been here so it is nice and quiet and easy to get around the buffet. I also like the look of the restaurant from what I've seen it's clean and I like the LED lights surrounding the roof. Overall 3/5 stars. read more

Service was excellent and the food is always darn delicious! The staff was extremely friendly and on top of it!!! So wonderful! A must visit

The food was scrumptious. The steak with Thai shrimp was excellent. My hubby had the steak and Malibu chicken he said it was the best he had. The cheese toast was the bomb!!! The service was outstanding. read more

Sizzler - Enjoying lunch with Ruben - Seafood Near Me - Downey, California

I usually go to the one in pico rivera but it is closed. This place was ok, the tables that were used were small and I usually don't like it when there isn't anything down on the cement because of the oil stains. There were several flies that you had to beat off of you while sitting. The waitress seemed to have a difficult time with several of the customers. I asked for a clean knife and she forgot so I sat for 15 mins until a man who looked like the manager or owner came out and seemed to take control. After that everything seemed to flow with him assisting the customers. My steak looked funny like they cut it in half and gave me and another person a piece of it. Lol otherwise everything was ok read more

Sizzler - Steak - Seafood Near Me - Downey, California

Food was horrible- not fresh, as it seemed cooked, food was just re-warmed before serving. The fish platter had fish that was dry and not fresh. It was no tartar sauce served with the meal, and when I asked for tartar sauce, they said they were out. That is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. there's an ordinary condiment for fish. Also, they had old potato wedges at the bar. They were hard and dry, and when I asked for a fresh batch to be cooked, I was told we're out. Personally, I do not believe they're out of potato wedges, I believe the cooks were too lazy to cook a new batch until dinner time. Overall, the service was awful. When I was brought ranch dressing, it exchange for tartar sauce, it was served to me in a cup that was dripping on the side with ranch dressing, running down and dripping all over the place, and it was handed to me by a guy, who had just rubbed his hand through his hair. How gross and unsanitary is that???. The ambience was not nice either, it seemed very plain. The temperature was too low. It was ice cold and it was a boring environment and it looks like I could go to sleep there and not eat there. I rate this place at one. Will not be going back again! Encourage others to go elsewhere! Learn better, food, service read more

Sad sad sad place !! If I could give them a Lower score they get a minus zero! I used to come to this Downey location many years ago and last week decided to try it again as we have always been fans of the salad bar... Last week we noticed the quality of the food was not great but we got there an hour before closing so we figure they couldn't replenish the salad bar. And the gentleman who was taking orders and serving the tables at the same time was very nice , so that made up for the dissatisfaction with the food quality. We order salad bars and when we asked for a baked potato he brought it to our table. So we decided to give this place another try ... this time our experience was horrible!! Starting with Juan , the super NOT enthusiastic gentleman taking the orders , I mean he seemed like he really hated his job! If I had restaurant, I am not sure I would have Juan taking the orders .. when I asked what was "Malibu " chicken , his reply was "I don't know " okkk then I asked if they were going to replenish the chicken wings in the salad bar and his reply " I don't know" , he literally seemed frustrated and bothered with simple questions.,, I guess I should have walked out with that attitude, but I decided to stay thinking the service in the floor would be decent.. . WRONG again !!! The waitress was not much help either when asked if we could get 2 baked potatoes she replied " I have to go ask" , really???? Asked for that ???when last week we asked and they brought it out to us.. then she comes back and saids" baked potatoes are not complimentary " I said ok then bring me 2 I'll pay for them .. well she never brought them nor did she come back to to ck on us! At this point I had already paid and it took all out of me not to walk out .. what happened to the old zizzler!!!! When management cared! And showed courtesy to the customers ???? Oh and when asked the waitress if she knew she the name of the gentleman who was taking orders, her reply was , " let me go ask " ,,hmmmm I find it hard to believe she did not know his name!!!! When she was talking to him .... Interesting!!! Bottom line is I will NOT be returning to this Zizzler!! All u can say go at your own risk !! The people who work there , clearly hate their jobs ! Makes me wonder how these people get hired ? These ppl who represent zizzler lack common courtesy skills ... the food , the staff and overall presentation of the restaurant has to gone to negative zero !!! And I will not give them my business ever again, in fact I should request a refund!!!!! read more

I really didn't even want to leave a star. Sometime ago I went to this location and it was really not a good experience at all. The only one good thing was the waitress ver nice young lady. I called the next day wanting a refund and was told by the manager they don't refund. So I called and never received a returned call. The food was not good. No flavor and I love sizzlers, but this location was sadly just not good. The salad bar was just ok items didn't seem fresh not even cool enough. I'm sorry I spent over 60 dollars for a party of 2. read more

If I could leave negative stars I would. I am still livid by the treatment of Andrea, the cashier. My 91 year old grandmother was craving their baked potato, I entertained this idea since she's always had a great time at this location. Unfortunately, despite ordering three full priced meals; a lobster & steak and two steak and shrimp meals. Which by the way, would've covered one of us (my mother, and sister) giving their baked potato to my grandmother, I still ordered a full salad bar dish JUST in case my grandmother was craving anything else. Again, only came to this location for their baked potato, their cashier, Andrea, had the audacity to say "so, you're ordering three meals for four people?! You cannot share any of the buffet items" to which I clearly stated that this was a "just in case" order, she still had the audacity to reiterate her statement, I also purchased a couple of beverages and a wine for me included. Once we sat down, the staff was watching us like a hawk. This is disgusting behavior, as I only ordered the buffet dish as an alternative if my grandmother wanted anything else. It is very unfortunate that this location has just lost valuable customers! I didn't even finish my steak or shrimp. I asked for a medium well and they gave me a straight up rare piece, I asked them for a medium well and they simply grabbed my steak and returned it to me heat up. I've never felt so unwanted and mistreated in my life! It is unfortunate that I had to tell my grandmother that I will NEVER return to her favorite restaurant because of their terrible service. The fact that they treat their elders such disgustingly I will never entertain this restaurant nor give them some of my hard earned money as an educator. Please reconsider when you're debating which location to attend. read more

Food Is Great the place could use a rework as design and interior isn't the best. What made the experience the best was our server Pedro. Pedro was a nice server who wasn't even looking for a tip but a review in the place to keep the reviews up and to keep people coming to keep his job. read more

I was going to have a good dinner with my family but the staff made me feel horrible about sharing my food with my daughter. I wasn't allowed to share absolutely anything because I had to pay in the beginning for my daughters plate too even though she's only 8 and barely eats much. I felt really uncomfortable because server kept looking at me. They even came to charge me a fee for sharing my food. Also the steak taste HORRIBLE. I have been to other steaks where the steak is much better but for some reason the steak was really really bad at this location. Stay away even you want good customer service and good food. read more

Food is terrible. Salad bar was dirty and the hot food was barely warm. I give this place a -10!!!! This is not Sizzler as we remember. Baked potatoes was barely warm. Asked server for a hit potato and he never brought one to the table. Even the cheese bread does not taste as it did back in the day. Will NEVER eat here again and I recommend that other people DO NOT EAT THER either!!! read more

I love this Sizzler. It is always so clean and staff is friendly. Today (Sunday) I was shocked to listen to a customer yell and scream at the manager Dana. He used many racial slurs and forced the owner to intervene. Felt sorry for Dana and the people that had to listen to this guy ramble on about something. His wife was so embarrassed that she actually left the building. Keep up the good work Dana and remember there are always people out there that want to create craziness. read more

Only if I could give it negative stars.. but oh well.. nothing needs to be said here.. thanks

my daughter and I went to have dinner at the sizzler today 2-25-2024 5:00 pm we waited in line for a good 20 minutes and when we got to the register to order the cas told us that we were unable to order food because the cook was overwhelmed with orders and that we order anything unless we were going to order just the salad bar so we decided to go ahead with the salad bar paid 42.89 for 2 people with drinks we get to the salad bar and there's not much to select everyone in the restaurant we're Hispanic with full meals and not to mention the restaurant is very small so I suggest you not waste your time with this place if you're not hispanic seems like a racial business and should be investigated my refund has not been returned yet. read more

Not the best courteous customer service , loyal customers deserve from an aggressive overworked management whom to seem to project the over exhausted energy onto customers who decide to celebrate important significant memorable days such as birthday celebrations , individuals whom have a position of management should in a positive approach at dealing with situations instead of using a condescending imperialist response. The ambience here was never like this a few years something has changed lacking the genuine quality of one human being treating another has been dismissed in this particular place of business. By all regards i hope an individual with remorse an understanding concerning some of the aggressive table management skills some of your managers deploy are a bit discriminatory an offensive. Especially when customers are unwittingly aware of what the actual issue our non appealing action is being engaged. Please further train your management team of how to listen to orders , an deal with customers request. As oppose to doing what they please , unacceptable behavior. I was discriminated as I tried to share the Malibu chicken an vegetables , of the managers special I was going to eat myself the salad bar . Instead I was hounded by the manager DARLENE in rude condescending fashion , when i asked her to please bring me a box , She took about 30 minutes going back an forth ignoring me while she attended other folks , flies where all on my food by the time she decided to pick it up take to the back an pack her dArn rude self. Without have any remorse to here rude demeanor she could've spit on my food in the back for all I know , she brought back tide in a knot tied 6 times , as signs she thought I was there to steal food from the salad bar. Terrible customer experience. As such favorite location to dine. Th read more

My family and I came here today to have our normal Sunday brunch after church. We are a large party of 18 when we get together. The manager Pedro was very nice and accommodating. Not only did they open up a new space for us to all sit together but he also went out of his way when he heard I mistakenly ordered the wrong chicken. He happily replaced it with the one I was really looking forward to. I am very happy and pleased with our entire service and food experience. His kind service and willingness to fix my mistake is truly remarkable. Thank you. read more

Edgar is a great cashier love his energy!!!love the food 10/10 will be going back as soon as possible

Wishing I would have not even stepped a foot in this place the owner/server had the worst attitude I have received in a my whole life business is definitely not his thing I order our food was waiting for it to arrive took almost 40 mins the salad bar has meat that were all extremely salty the broccoli soup was heavy like if it was recycled for days, the owner is just staring down at everyone making sure no one is sharing anything making you feel uncomfortable never again will i step in this place horrible experience read more

The service was just as expected... decent. I got my food pretty quickly, but that might be the problem. I ordered Malibu chicken and almost half way through the chicken, I noticed the chicken was raw. I didn't think to try to check it before I started eating it but now... I've eaten almost have of a chicken patty. I let the server now and now she's replacing my meal with a well cooked chicken patty. But I had already got through almost half the chicken! Oh geez... From now on, I'm checking all chicken by cutting it in half. read more

We've been coming to this Sizzler with our kids since we moved to Downey in 2014. The previous manager/owner was so invested in his restaurant, he would always be there, working and making sure his food and service were the best. As a mom, it was the best restaurant we could go to as the waitresses were always so super sweet to my toddler. They would bring extra plates and just entertain him so I could eat. Unfortunately, times have changed and that owner/manager is no longer at this Sizzler. They now have two people managing the restaurant that need help. We went in yesterday and the floors were so sticky, it was nasty. I had to clean my shoes when I got home. There was a female manager at the register and she was so mean and unprofessional. It was clear she didn't know how to use the new register and was even having trouble adding bacon to a burger. When I pointed out that one of the meals got a free drink, she was so confused, called it an old menu and didn't honor what it stated. She took it away and just seemed flustered. I have always ordered a plain iced tea, and this time she said they didn't have that, only raspberry iced tea. When I informed her that I've always ordered that, she practically made me feel like I was lying. I do need to say our server was super nice, but not very attentive. I ordered the salmon with baked potato. Usually, the fish comes on a bed of rice, with lemons, and tartar sauce on the side. This time, they just brought out the fish with the potato. They said they were out of tartar sauce and that only the shrimp skewers came on rice. I've literally had the same thing for the past 10 years here. I know how it comes served. It looked so unappetizing. My husband ordered the chicken club. When they asked what kind of cheese, he said none. It ended up coming out with cheese and without the bacon like a regular club sandwich is supposed to have. This Sizzler is just sad at this point. We will not be returning until it returns to being what it was; a good, family restaurant that treated its patrons like the paying customers we are. read more

So Sizzler should be like a national treasure, kind of like in the same vein as Denny's or like Bob's Big Boy. The restaurant chains that have stood the test of time. What makes this one so special? The menudo. Nope. Not kidding! My mom is obsessed with it. It is home made, and full of all of the good stuff. After talking to the owner, we found out that the menudo is a labor of love made by the cooks every day. This place is nostalgic and classic, and the owner is incredibly kind. Service is great. Food is good, and once you have the menudo, you'll keep coming back. read more

If I can put a zero stars, I would. The workers were kind, but the manager Pedro left his employees left during dinner rush. I would suggest getting rid of Pedro. The owner of this place failed his customers and workers by leaving them severely short staff read more

I've been here a few times in the past, and the staff is always kind, helpful and courteous--today was no exception. They have a new manager who is very pleasant and personable. He was very kind and attentive to our needs. I must say the steak was better than the last time I was here--cooked to perfection! This place has much potential and I'm excited to see changes for the better. Maybe they will have background music next time! If you haven't been here in a while, I recommend you check it out. read more

The worst sizzler I have ever been to in all my life, I don't know how they're still open. I Spent 86.00 on the worst salad bar, dirty, and slow service. We usually go to the West Covina sizzler, but since we were in the area, we thought it was going to be the same kind of experience. HELL NO! As soon as we sat down we knew we made a mistake, the floor was filthy, the workers are rude, and worst of all the food SUCKED SO BAD. The salad bar was the biggest disgrace! We told whatever worker that was standing around about the salad bar, and each and everyone said "okay, I'll let someone know" we laughed at a point because they all kept saying the same thing. The pasta was hard, the chicken nuggets were old and HARD as a rock from staying heated, the chicken wings were guess agin? HARD. Salad? BROWN. We couldn't believe it!!!!!!! I myself ordered The steak and lobster and that even tasted bad! Cold, rubbery, and tasted days old or something. It's NEVER tasted like this in West Covina. I complained to the waitress and she could give a crap less. I never thought I'd feel robbed after eating at one of my favorites restaurants. It really was a shame spending almost 90.00 of the worst food possible. I wish I would've read all these comments before me and my family walked through those doors. I will never come back to this place ever again. Whoever owns or at least runs this place should really be ashamed of themselves read more
