    Vs Hell’s Kitchen. California dreaming ribs are not quite as good as ramseys beef wellington, but the salad was better. Tie breaker goes to the croissant. California dreaming wins. To top it off Gordon gave us complimentary champagne, but Craft gave us complimentary cheesecake. California Dreaming has taken my #1 spot.

    Almost always a good experience and the consistency is the reason we go here more often than anyplace else. Great service today too from Kathleen and the soups and salads and salmon and chicken were all spot on.

    The bar was slow on getting drinks out. Not the bar tenders fault. Tiny bar for a packed restaurant. Service food and drinks all good.

    It’s a chain so expectations for flavor were low, steaks were flavorless and disappointing. Salads were good, croissants were flaky and mashed potatoes had a great consistency.

    The food was delicious. We had 4 people in our party and everyone raved about the food and service. My wife and I felt that this was one of our best dining experience in the last 5 years.

    An excellent dining experience, where the service and food exceeded expectations. We were a large business party of around 10 people. Our server Trevina was incredibly attentive, friendly and knowledgeable of the selections. Great food and top notch hospitality.

    Jerrmiah provided excellent service, we had the California Dreaming salad, which is the best with the house dressing, and the two rack baby back ribs entree. Fall off the bone, charred, and the best bbq sauce. Steak Fries on the side good and hot. All of it exceptional. Our longtime favorite restaurant.
