Sizzler might be famous for its nostalgic salad bar and classic steak combo, but our latest visit proved that exceptional hospitality is still the main event. From the moment we sat down, our server, Evelyn, turned what could have been a standard casual dinner into a standout dining experience. She struck that rare, perfect balance of being genuinely attentive without ever feeling intrusive. Evelyn kept our drinks topped off, timed our entrees effortlessly around our salad bar runs, and made sure every detail of our table was taken care of before we even had to ask. Beyond her sharp promptness, it was her warm presence that truly elevated the evening. Evelyn made us feel instantly comfortable and welcome, creating an inviting, unhurried atmosphere that let us just kick back and enjoy our meal. Excellent service transforms a simple dinner into a great memory and Evelyn delivered exactly that. Sizzler has a real gem on their team. read more

Wow this is my first time having Sizzlers ever and I can see the traditional aspects that would make this place popular and nostalgic for those who grew up having it. My rating would have been better if our server was more attentive. My boyfriend ordered the Classic Steak Trio ($25.49) which comes with a 6oz sirloin steak, 4 jumbo crispy shrimps, and a malibu chicken with your choice of a side, which he opted for the baked potato. He wanted the classic so I could try some of the classic items at Sizzler. I had to have what I have heard about this place for so long, the Unlimited Salad Bar ($20.99) which includes a beverage. So their unlimited concept is strange to me because they don't have the plates and soup bowls out. Starting out they gave me one plate and ne bowl. Not my style since I usually like to gather all my food at the buffet and then sit and eat in one sitting. This is an area where our server really hindered the experience because I had to finish my plate before I had to ask and waittttttt for her to eventually bring another plate. By then I'm already digesting and less able to eat to my full potential. So I started off building a salad with all of my favorite ingredients. The way they have the ingredients and the tongs they use... a lot of contamination occurs. The ingredient in the back drops into the ingredient in the front. This is especially true with the sauces. One lady couldn't reach the ladle for the dressing she wanted and asked me to grab the handle for her. Then she was struggling so much I saw her contaminate the front dressing with her dressing. Not on purpose or anything but she couldn't help it base on the set up. I also tried the clam chowder and the chicken noodle soup. Neither were impressive. The wings were okay. I also saw spaghetti and meatballs and a mini taco bar but I didn't grab anything from it. I ended my meal with some fruits and soft serve. The quality is not the best but I got my fill for the price. My boyfriend also wanted me to sample everything from his classic trio. The steak was okay. I commented on how it was small, and he said it's shrinkflation, since it used to be bigger before. Shrimp was okay. What amused me most was the malibu chicken which is a deconstructive knock off of a cordon bleu. Tastes good enough. I wouldn't mind coming back for a healthy salad buffet meal but this is no where as good as the salad bar experience with Soup N Fresh (aka the new Souplanation) but no wait is a plus. The experience would have been much better if the server we had was more on top of things. read more

One of the better Sizzlers in the area. Entrees are always made correctly, steaks cooked just as ordered. They refresh the salad bar really quickly even when things run out. The staff is fantastic - Nicole at the register was friendly and our server Venus was so so amazing! Super nice and quick with all requests. She absolutely made our meal exceptional. read more

Been back several more times and the salad bar has been much better. Fresh veggies, hot items have more variety. Love the cheese toast. Please don't ever discontinue that item! Great service every time. read more

Twelve of my friends took a vote on Sushi or Sizzler for dinner, and Sizzler won. We arrived and were immediately greeted and welcomed by two extremely friendly employees. I chose the unlimited salad bar, as did a couple of my friends, while others chose steak, shrimp, or chicken dinners. The restaurant, including the salad bar, was very clean, well organized, and well maintained. The salad bar offered many great, fresh, and tasty choices. My friends shared that their dinners were delicious and perfectly prepared. Our lone waitress was AMAZING!! She was super friendly, attentive, and assured that our visit was a positive experience. Mission accomplished, as we truly enjoyed our dinners and our entire visit. read more

Initially I went to another restaurant for soup and salad but they were busy so I thought of Sizzler since we were in the area. It is busy during dinner time on a Saturday night. We waited in line a bit before ordering. Ordered 3 dinner salad bar, crispy bacon burger, and a side of baked potato. For seniors over 65, you get a free fountain drink. After you pay, find your own seats. The server was friendly and she came by to give us new plates and soup bowls for refills. It took a long time for crispy bacon burger and a side of baked potato to come out. We were almost done with our meal and they finally came out. Plenty of parking spaces. It is across from the mall. read more

We always have a great experience at this Sizzler! The food is delicious, and of course, we absolutely love the bread! What made our visit even better was the excellent service we received from our waitress, Erika. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Her wonderful service made us feel welcome and well taken care of. This is our go-to Sizzler for a reason, and we always look forward to coming back. Thank you, Erika, for making our dining experience so enjoyable! Highly recommend! read more

After having a self care pedi day with my bestie, inside the plaza we were getting our nails done, I noticed there was a sizzler. I can't remember the last time I had the salad bar from Sizzler and we both decided it was time to be reacquainted. Our total was $64 for two people (tip not included), for two salad bar dinners, paired with a large Corona and Strawberry Lemonade. The ambiance was clean, the food was fresh, and our meals were accompanied with great service. The restaurant was busy, and we did have a little wait. However, it was all worth it. Thank you so much! It's located in a plaza with ample parking. There aren't too many sizzler locations near me. So, I absolutely noted this one. read more

I got the shrimp shrimp shrimp. I liked the popcorm shrimp and the butterfly shrimp, the skewered shrimp lacked flavor. For the steak 6oz looks really small and it is unless you get salad bar too for an additional 9.99. The steak is super tender. Cheese toast was super buttery. Salad bar had a variety of salads.on one side they have the build your own salad. Then one the other Tuna, egg, brocolli, macaroni, seafood salads. I liked the egg, macaroni, and seafood salads. I also liked their chicken as it was crispy. Maybe this batch was fresh. The chicken soup was good, i was not a fan of the menudo though. This sizzler has unlimited nacho cheese. I loved the ice cream they had. The cones were stale though, so id recommend only getting the ice cream in a cup. Getting inside, you can view the menu before you place your order, pay, then finds seats. It was a little confusing because they have a tip option and the cashier said hold up i have tip for you then gave us cash. Apparently you tip the server instead of up front. You also have to give the server the receipt so they know what you ordered. If you get salad bar, it comes with plate and a soup bowl. read more

Sizzler (West Covina) is not bad. I ordered the Unlimited Salad Bar ($19.99). It's unlimited soup, buffet items, salad, and dessert. The Unlimited Salad Bar is the main attraction at Sizzlers. I arrived at Sizzler (West Covina) on Sunday (around 3:50PM). Parking is easy. The lot is fairly big. Unlike other restaurants, customers pay before eating. Customers pay at the counter; they place their receipt at an open table; and a server greets and assists you. Staff is pleasant and diligent. During my visit, Staff was attentive and friendly. Immediately, Staff placed a basket of complimentary cheese toast. From the Salad Bar, I served myself bowls of Clam Chowder, Spaghetti with Meatballs, Nachos, Fried Chicken, Cesar Salad with Artichoke Hearts and Mushrooms, and Vanilla Soft Serve Ice Cream. I also ordered the Mango Lemonade ($5.99) which came with unlimited refills. The food is very filling. Personally, the Clam Chowder, Cheese Toast, and Cesar Salad tasted the best. I enjoyed the Clam Chowder's soft potatoes and thick, well-seasoned broth. The Cheese Toast is fluffy and thick. The salad options are also very fresh. However, the Spaghetti with Meatballs was okay. I liked the bouncy noodles and meatballs, but its sauce was too watery. I also appreciated the vanilla soft serve, but this ice cream tastes frugal and icy, Unfortunately, the nachos and fried chicken were the least enjoyable. The chips were stale; the cheese tasted watered down; and the fried chicken was very salty and chewy. Regarding ambiance, Sizzler (West Covina) had a casual, slightly messy diner appearance. Floors had crumbs; tables constantly needed to be cleaned; and crowds kinda lumbered around. However, there's some high points. I appreciated the flat screen televisions that played the football game. I also appreciated how there's a stack of high-chairs for children, so it's family friendly. Also, it felt like the servers still tried hard to keep up with the customers' pace. Overall, Sizzler (West Covina) has value. It's a very affordable, decent option if you enter with a plan. Personally, I avoid Sizzler's main entrees because they are usually too rubbery, wet, or overcooked.... however, the Unlimited Salad Bar ($19.99) is the real reason I'd continue to return. If searching for affordable food, Sizzler (West Covina) is a decent option. 3.8 out of 5 read more

Mom loves Sizzler after her favorite salad bar place closed down at the height of Covid. Life sized menus line the wall as you get closer to the cashier. We usually order the small plates then add unlimited salad bar. Their salad bar had fresh vegetable and fruit options, different salad dressings, nuts, dried fruit, mixed salads like macaroni, potato, carrot, crab salad, coleslaw, there was a taco station, pasta section and even dessert (chocolate and tapioca pudding, yogurt, fruit salad, jello, canned peaches, cool whip, etc.). Don't forget the soft serve ice cream station. They had three kinds of soup- there's clam chowder, beef stew, and chicken noodle soup. There are booths and tables for bigger groups. Service was friendly. We arrived before the dinner rush so parking was not an issue, the restrooms were clean. read more

Sizzler in West Covina feels like a classic American diner/steakhouse vibe, but with a little southern-style comfort twist--simple, filling, and honestly a great value if you're coming hungry. The best part for me is the unlimited salad bar. It's super affordable for how much you can get, and it makes the whole meal feel worth it even before the entrée hits the table. But the real standouts here aren't just the food -- it's the customer service, the iconic cheesy toast, and their steak selections. The steaks aren't the biggest portions ever (so don't expect a massive cut), but they're still satisfying, and the service makes up for it. Everyone is welcoming, attentive, and makes you feel taken care of, which goes a long way. Overall: good price, good vibes, great service, and the cheesy toast alone makes it hard not to come back. Definitely worth the money. read more

This place always hit the spot and the last time it did that was about 15 years ago. Love that this place still serve the infamous Malibu Chicken, which is and was my favorite. The restaurant is nice and clean. There's lots of tables available and good parking. My waitress was friendly as well. read more

Good food, excellent customer service. Our server was Evelyn. We had the unlimited salad bar. Evelyn kept our table clear of the plates we were done with, our glasses full & was very attentive & constantly checking in on us without being too overbearing. Weather you are creating your own salad or choosing the pre made salads the salad bar has lots of selection to chose from, & plenty of choices at the hot bar as well. We love going to Sizzlers. read more

I had the salad bar for the first time and didn't really care for it. The soups were not very tasty and the protein asides from the boiled eggs were nit that great. I should have had the steak with vegetables as it is almost the same price! Service was great and the place was cery crowded. The cheese bread is really good! It is a large dining area and very crowded when we dined, we will be back but most likely for the steak. read more

I haven't been here in a while! It's been over 10 years I forgot what this was like. The staff was very attentive and nice, while we were waiting for the rest of the party to arrive the cashier thought we were confused and tried to help us out. Not to mention our server ( the guy with pixel Mario tattoo) I didn't catch his name, he was on it. New plates, napkins, cheese bread, I didn't really need to ask. It's like he sees the future. Ok heres my best bang for the buck strategy, Get any entree that you think would be good reheated, and go to town on the salad bar. I know I know it's a "salad bar" but honestly it's a pretty decent buffet. Fried chicken, tacos, I made myself a dirty nacho plate. I need to come back before they realize my eatery tactics read more

My family loves sizzlers salad bar, the senior discount is actually a free drink but they enjoy the variety of salads, soups, and make your own pasta/tacos/nachos food. I think it's more worth getting a meal and add the salad bar but honestly it's a lot to eat and finish! The salad bar is unlimited visits but don't waste food because it's all good food that is worth a try. Reminds me of souplantation and I do miss the place and this is just as good with steak as an option to order. My go to is the clam chowder, fried wings, broccoli salad, and meatballs. The chicken soup reminds me of hometown buffet version, the broccoli salad reminds me of souplantation, and their wings are just so unique (breading is very thick but crunchy so it's like a sandwich encased chicken wing). Our server seems to be the same every time I came, super quick, very accommodating, and always checks on us if we need anything. The place reminds me of American comfort food, a mix of Dennys seating vibe without the bright lights, missing the iconic sizzler silo windows, but with floors and walls of hometown buffet. read more

It's been 20 some years since I ate at a Sizzlers and gotta say this like driving down memory lane. Food - Excellent! The steak and shrimp I ordered was surpassingly great! The steak grade is much better than I expected. Shrimps were crispy and little bigger than how I remembered it. Service - Erika makes me wanna bring my family here asap. Service was top notch and Erika made us feel like VIPs. The is the prime measure for success. Good service brings loyalty. Parking - Shares a lot with other businesses but wasn't too hard to find parking at around 2:00pm in a Sunday. Ambiance - Very loud. You can study here but you sure as heck can party lol. Highly recommend this location! read more

My family and I were politely served by Evelyn! We walked right in and had our order taken. Quick and concise (which is a plus!), we chose our booth. The salad bar was clean and so were our seats, which is something extremely important. Overall, we were served with care and would recommend this Sizzler to anyone to wants a clean, peaceful lunch/dinner with loved ones! Thank you Evelyn! read more

Came on a Sunday afternoon. It was busy but not barbaric because we chose to come later. Erika was an amazing server. She was very attentive, always refreshed our salad bar plates and beverages, and checked on us often. We really hope to sit with her again. The food was very fresh and after not being to a Sizzler for over 20 years I was very impressed by the quality of the food prep. The steaks were all cooked to the correct temperature and the fried shrimp were fluffy, crispy, and perfectly golden. The signature cheese toast was offered to our whole table after we sat down. For the salad bar option, there is salad, soups, a hot bar with a taco/nacho bar, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken wings, and more. The salad bar options were fresh with several premade salads and a great variety of ingredients. The soups weren't the best (very starchy), but they had the trifecta of chicken noodle, beef veggie, and clam chowder. The ice cream bar also included with the salad bar was a nice plus, offering vanilla and chocolate soft serve, pound cake, several toppings and syrups. read more

Went back to sizzler for the first time in a while, and it did not disappoint. Food was great, and the server Erika provided A++ customer service. Will definitely be back again soon. read more

Great food !!! Thank you Evelyn for the great service. I enjoy coming here a lot for the steak and salad bar.

It was my first time eating at sizzlers and boy have I been missing out. Everything was delicious and wow that cheese toast is something else. Kinda hated that they were unlimited because we kept asking for more. I had the seabass and I was impressed in how good it was. Shoutout to our server Phillip because he was fast and very attentive. My son disliked the sauce in his burger and Phillip offered to have it remade. We appreciated that so much! Will be coming back soon. read more

One of the few Sizzler location that is still open. I haven't been here for a long time. Having a bite of their cheese toast brings back fond memories of dining here with friends and families. Had the unlimited salad bar that comes with dessert for $18.99 not bad since the salad bar comes with fried chicken, tacos and spagetti. The clam chowder comes to salty for me, so less on salt please. Drinks are separate order. The restroom can also be improve by regularly checking for supplies, came 30 minutes after opening and there's no more toilet paper. But, overall the place is pretty decent, the salad bar replenished quickly. Our server was very pleasant , its good I did not include the tip when I paid at the counter. I personally hand her the tip for being nice and attentive. read more

Love their salad bar! 7/20/25 Everything is fresh and stocked. Love that I can make my own salad of choose from their already-mixed salads. I enjoy the broccoli salad and seafood salad. The soups were good. My favorite is the clam chowder. Very creamy! The chicken soup was good too but could be a bit less salty. The self-serve Alfredo pasta was also really good! I wish their ice cream was better though. It's just sweet and not creamy like high quality ice cream. The strawberry sauce with the pound cake was good. You can add how much you want by yourself at the dessert section. People at my table also ordered the classic steak trio. The shrimps were very small compared to the pictures, and they cooked one of the steaks a bit too well done so they redid it. We also ended up adding an extra salad bar to an entree and they were kind enough to give it to us for free! There were a lot of people around 5PM on a Sunday. And the seats felt a bit crammed. Would be better to visit earlier or on weekdays. Would come back! read more

Honestly overrated. I think the food was good and flavorful, just not worth the price. And the unlimited salad bar is not worth it for $20? Service wasn't very present. I wouldn't go back a second time. read more

Still the same quality of steak as it was many years ago. Though the salad bar quality kind of went down. The cheese bread is the real winner. read more

Man, it's great back to be at sizzler's. Out of all the restaurants I decided to spend my birthday as sizzler. Maybe something from my childhood reminded me of the happiness I had eating here. I will say the food here is decent, but don't expect to find dining. The salad bar was melt well stocked with everything that you could want. The salad bar hot foods were the same as always. And one thing I always notice is that the service at sizzlers is always spot on. They really make you feel like family. Love this place. read more
