My wife and I decided on Sizzler for dinner tonight. Initially, I planned to get the All-You-Can-Eat Salad Bar ($19.95) but changed my mind and went with the steak and two shrimp skewers, adding the salad bar for an extra $9.99. My wife ordered the steak and lobster ($38.99). I started off with the salad bar, which is always a safe bet--lots of fresh options, and the watermelon and strawberries were very good. The Texas toast, however, was a letdown. It's definitely gone down in quality; the grilled topping was overly salty and not as good as I remember. I upgraded my steak to the 8 oz (for about $4 more), while my wife stayed with the 6 oz--but both steaks looked the same size. When I asked, I was told steaks shrink while cooking... okay, sure. Her meal was good overall, and she really enjoyed the garlic mashed potatoes. My steak wasn't exactly medium, but close enough. The real issue was the shrimp skewers--they tasted overly fishy and were inedible. The waitress offered to replace them, but I declined. At the end, she kindly gave me an order of fried shrimp to go, which I'll try tomorrow and hope for the best. If you're coming for the All-You-Can-Eat Salad Bar, I'd say yes--it's worth it. As for anything else, I'll probably stick to just the salad bar in the future. On the positive side, our waitress was friendly and checked on us often. Plenty of seating at 7:30 PM and TVs overhead if you want to catch a game. Restaurant was clean and the staff was constantly cleaning and restocking the salad bar.

Steak & lobster and seafood platter was like appetizers

Their AC is broken! Rarely come here, tonight it was at least 90 degrees. You cannot operate like that wtf. No ac truck outside working on it nothing. They do say at the register idk. Felt like it should be discounted trying to run being that hot. Then it's borderline fast food, very expensive for the portions.

We ate here for lunch my son and daughter had the lunch steak and my husband and I had the unlimited salad bar. Their steaks were good kinda small but I figured that's because they were lunch size but the flavor was tasty.The salad bar was fresh and fully stocked. We had an amazing server by the name of Deanna she was so friendly and always on top of clearing plates and bring refills. We will definitely be coming back.

I took my mom, aunt, and wife out for an early Mother's Day lunch. We all had steak and honestly it was delicious. The cook on each steak was perfect (just as each person wanted). I've always enjoyed the Sizzler salad bar and it did not disappoint. The baked potatoes were a nice size and came with the works. The food was 5/5. Every staff member we encountered was super nice and friendly. Service 5/5. The restaurant was clean. And the prices are super reasonable for the amount of food and quality you get. Hadn't been here in a while and now we can't wait to come back to this location again. read more

I've rated this Sizzler and service 5 stars in the past, but yesterday my family and I took our inlaws from out of town for their birthday and to begin the bill was $173.52 without a tip. That's fine for a good dining experience with 5 people, but we ordered at 7:34pm on a Monday. Not busy at all. Apparently we came on a night with all the regional managers working so you'd think service would be fantastic, but no! Now I have to say our waitress Makkiyah is always the best! We love her but it was out of her hands. We got our food a little after 8pm and 3 of our steaks that were suppose to be medium rare were definitely over done and tough. So our waitress took them back to make new ones. I understand there may have been a new cook but making a steak should be pretty cut and dry. Anyways time goes by and and it's after 8:30 and we're all finished with our food and have had several refills on shrimp and finally the steaks come out, but we're done eating now. One lady manager came by to deliver them but didn't offer discount or even ask if they were cooked OK. And yet once again they were not medium rare. Makes sense since it took 30minutes to cook them. I'm not looking for a hand out, but something needs to be said especially if the managers were there helping out on a Monday. I think we'll be dining somewhere else for awhile till they get their stuff figured out. read more

For 4 people, we finished everything in the bag. Sausage had a little spice and was better than other crab bag restaurants. 5 stars Didn't like our plate was just a small little paper container that didn't hold much. They don't leave the bucket to your table so basically have to leave any shells out on the table. Not a deal breaker but other places I've been to, leaving a bucket for excess shell stuff makes our area around our paper container cleaner. 3 stars Overall, experience was fine but not worth 5 stars.

My party was seated fairly quickly. Our waitress took all our orders by memory - we were a party of 8! I got the Chicken Marsala: Chicken, sauce, mixed veggies, mashed potatoes, and gravy. I started off with the mixed veggies - they were cooked soft, just how I like them. They were also flavorful! Not just regular ole steamed frozen veggies, they definitely were buttered and seasoned or something. Next, the mashed potatoes. I'm not a mashed potato connoisseur - matter of fact, I usually skip eating mashed potatoes when they're available. These mashed potatoes however were so flavorful! And it was not only the gravy doing all the talking, it was both the mash and the gravy. I was impressed! Lastly, the chicken Marsala. The chicken itself was cooked to perfection, moist on the inside & fully cooked - and with chicken breast, we all know how hard that is to accomplish. The sauce was incredible. I have never had any Marsala sauce as good as that. So much flavor, very savory. Altogether, the flavors worked together and worked perfectly. If only I wasn't an hour away, I would come here more often. I hope to be here again someday!

We were there on Friday September 29th looking forward to having a nice family dinner. Instead, we were all grossed out to the point of no return! There will be no return to Sizzler. I started with salad bar; the plate on top of the pile looked like it wasn't washed properly so I put it aside hoping the next is nice and clean. What do you know?? it had stock on food. There was another guy trying to grab a plate to enjoy the salad bar as well. So I went for the third plate, surprisingly, stock on food again. At this point the guy is looking at me and shaking his head. The fourth plate wasn't washed at all; it was so disgusting, full of green red and orange bits and pieces. I alerted the staff. I went on just wanting to pretend I din't see that and just enjoy my time out with my husband and daughter. After all it had cost me about $90 to be there. I decided to go for a bowl of soup. That night was just not going to get any better. Again, first bowl with stuck on food, I set it aside. 2nd bowl with stuck on food, then the third one came. I gathered them and handed them to the waitress and told them I am not going back there again. After all of this you would thing some one from Sizzler, presumably the manager is going to come out and say something, but nothing happened . I was never disgusted so badly at a restaurant. There was nothing to make the situation better, however, it would have been nice for the manager to come out and say something. If I am not mistaking, I think they were mad at me for putting them on the spot and kept handing them the dirty, disgusting dishes. Not going back there; it is not sanitary. read more

Not going to be nice about my recent experience. DO NOT EAT HERE!! They serve raw salmon. I invited my two co-workers to join me for dinner and was very upset that the experience was a disaster! They ordered the salmon and I ordered the lobster and steak. Let me back up. When we ordered our food I was charged for the salad bar which I did not want. They did refund me for that. I also asked my steak be prepared medium. It was rare/medium rare. The salmon that one co-worker ordered was raw. Even the server when she showed her that it was raw agreed. She brought the salmon back and it was still raw. My lobster was raw on the bottom and the steak was terrible. The manager came over and apologized and offered the salad bar for free. Again, I do not want a salad bar I want a properly cooked meal. He said that he would cook our dinner personally next time we were there. How about now???? We're never coming back. Clueless!!! My co-worker paid $30.00 and I paid $50.00 and we left still hungry..........Don't waste your time or money. I do have one nice comment to make...........my dog enjoyed the steak!!! read more

I have been coming to this location for some years and seen managers in and out. On my last visit on Sunday, me and my husband came by and noticed the store felt much more vibrant and busier than usual. I believe if I am correct the previous manager was named Erick or something like that because we spoke to him once complimenting the steak we got on our last visit. It's been a while since we came but there is a new manager named Autumn, she is a very kind young lady. We had a great conversation with her and she is the soul and heart of this crew & it looks like this store is thriving under her more than any of the past times we have came. every employee is happy, laughing, smiling having a great time giving out some of the best service. Being an owner of a restaurant in this town we look out for service heavily + the food and on Sunday we had the pleasure of being served by Eddie, great young lad, super kind fantastic server. He gave us such an amazing experience we will definitely be coming back again very very soon! Thank you to the store manager Autumn & our server Eddie! Keep it up. -Julie read more

I'm only giving this place stars because of service and the rest of the staff who were great during our visit. I live in San Jose and come to visit my girlfriend and she loves Sizzler and this location so we come often. Sadly, the "manager" Christina ruined our visit yesterday and we will not be coming back. We usually get salad bar but I decided to get a steak this visit. I didn't want to complain but it was pretty undercooked. I simply just wanted to bring it to the managers attention. She responded with "well what do you want me to do about it??" and was incredibly rude including rolling her eyes while speaking with me and for what? I wasn't rude to her and also told her I didn't want a refund or for them to even recook it, I just wanted to let her know. She should not be in customer service. My girlfriend was embarrassed and is sad that she no longer wants to come to the place that she loves. Not sure how she has a job in customer service let alone is a MANAGER. Very disappointed... read more

I come here every so often when I get together with friends for lunch since it's near the freeway. Both the interior and exterior look great since their remodel a few years back. Unfortunately, the customer service does not match the feel of the restaurant. For a place where you order before you even get seated, you'd expect some top notch service. Generally, you meet your "server" when they bring your drinks, and you see them once more when they bring your food. Rarely do they come back to check up on you, offer refills, etc. Multiple times I have had to flag down a cook refilling the salad bar to get our "server" for us. For this reason, we never tip. We continue to come back for the food, not the service - not like there's much of it to begin with. All in all, the place is pretty clean, the food is consistently good, and the salad bar is always well stocked and seemingly fresh. read more

My husband and I just left the Sizzler on Dale Rd in Modesto, I wanted to write a review now because I can't remember ever being this happy with my whole experience. My food was so good I had a steak and jumbo shrimp. The reason I want everyone to know is this, last week we had a family dinner at Out back in Tulare Ca. I ordered the same meal absolutely no comparisons Sizzler was BEST by far!! Carlos was the cook (I asked) he did a fabulous job!! He knows how to cook a steak!My server was Makkiyah (I asked for her name also) she was so sweet we waited for nothing. If you feel like having a steak go to Sizzlers on Dale Rd. Thank you all, you're the best!! We'll be back for sure!! Donna and John A read more

The sizzler located in Modesto is by far the best! My wife and I were greeted right away and we were asked if we had any questions on the menu and the young lady Selena was very helpful. My order was taken right away and within minutes was getting seated. My server Karla immediately came to the table and greeted us brought out the drinks and toast. Our meals then came out & we were asked to cut into our steaks which I thought was great. She was vey attentive! My meal was delicious, the cook did a great job, not to mention the salad bar was clean and stocked the entire time! Overall, everything was fantastic! I will definitely be coming again soon read more

Had dinner with family at Sizzler on Dale Rd., Modesto, and our server Narisa/Marisa is a shining example of what quality service should be. Marisa made sure our drinks and food were correctly prepared, had enough silverware and made several checks on our table to ensure things were satisfactory. Her pleasant demeanor, calmness and upbeat attitude is uncommon among workers in her profession. I must say that Marisa made our dinner extra special that day. Overall, the facility was clean and bright and I would recommend this place to friends and the traveling public as an excellent place to stop and have a bite to eat. read more

We chose to celebrate Mother's Day on Saturday to avoid the crowds. We were honoring our mother who is ninety-one years young and uses a wheelchair. Our experience was wonderful. The cashier was quite knowledgeable about the menu selections and she arranged to have our tables set up for eight people right away. I can't say enough about our server, Alex. He did an outstanding job in meeting all of our many requests. He was so polite and so understanding. He has a wonderful smile and a fantastic memory. The food was amazing as always. We all had a great time, especially my Mom. Thanks!! Kathy S. read more

We (3 adults+kiddo) arrived for Thanksgiving at 11:45am ... figuring that we'd better get there early. We had a 15min wait (the line moved quickly). "Mike" seated us and had just the best customer engagement ... well, at least until we met our server, "Makkiyah" ... OHGoodness, she was PERFECT!! It could have been an edgy stressful meal was easy and untrusted! I have generally had good service at this Sizzler, but this was just over the top!! Our only complaint was that we didn't have where room enough to finish the pie. =( Oh, we will be back!! read more

Our favorite place to eat,Great salad bar, outstanding service by all (Jessica, Daniela & Natalie) Always make us feel welcome. The mangers are friendly and highly visible, always available and accommodating. I only have one suggestion: Please go back to wrapping your backed potato in aluminum foil, wrapped potatoes are always hot and maintain all the extras (Butter, Spices & Chives) within the potato(not running out onto your plate). Your wrapped potato was the best, now it is just a baked potato not always hot or as flavorful. read more

Cassie was a pleasure to have as a waitress. We were greeted with a smile, our drinks were full at all times, plates were taken without us asking, our food was served hot and fresh. We left full and happy! If you have a chance to go to sizzler in Modesto ask for her. Also get the new sandwich specials...they are delicious! Salad bar is just as good as I remember it back in the day. The young lady who took our order in the front was also a big help. read more

I came in today (Easter) for lunch and our server Jessica was absolutely amazing. Her attitude and service was u like anything I'd ever experienced before. She said she had been there for 13 years and loved having her job and was thankful for it. If you're in town, stop by and ask for Jessica! She'll treat ya right. And not to mention, their unlimited salad bar is bar none. Absolutely fresh, no questions asked! read more

I had a really great experience thanks to Vianney at Sizzler. She was super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. You can tell she truly cares about the customers and takes pride in her work. She kept a positive attitude the whole time and made the environment feel welcoming and comfortable. Employees like her make a big difference--definitely one of the reasons I'd come back again! read more

We love this Sizzler! When we come in we ask to be served by Cassie and get great service every time, she's always so sweet and makes our experience a great one. We usually get the 6oz steak and salad bar meals. Salad bar is always fresh and stocked. Steaks are always tender and seasoned perfectly. Only problem about this place is we leave so full and always come back weekly for more!!! read more
