    This was our second year eating Thanksgiving lunch at California Dreaming. The team did a wonderful job. I made reservations through OpenTable and we were seated as soon as we walked in the door. The service was fantastic. Several ordered steaks, while others ordered ribs and the Thanksgiving special. Everything was perfection. This is our new Thanksgiving tradition.

    Thanksgiving day meals at California Dreaming have become a yearly holiday mainstay for my Mother and I. The food and the service are top notch.

    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.
