The place has a nice atmosphere. bathroom sinks and faucets are beautiful. Food probably mediocre. It's an over priced applebee's. Everything was a bit too sweet for my taste. \r ...

I have enjoyed everything that I have 6/8/2012

I have enjoyed everything that I have tried on their menu. My all-time favorite is the California Dreaming salad. It is not a salad for dieters but the combination of ingredients with their special house dressing is worth every calorie! The steaks are better than the big chains, and even their chicken fingers are out of the ordinary. For an appetizer try the spinach nachos. A wonderful meal by themselves! more

Not my favorite restaurant 5/26/2012

Went there for my grandson's high school graduation..Special event. The restaurant was not crowded and we had a reservation. There were 8 people in our party...The service was slow and it took several trips to finally get our whole meal served. I ordered the seafood platter. On this platter was a type of claw things..too small to get even a bite from.The other items on the plate were good but small portions for the price. Another in our party ordered a steak that was not very tender. Another ordered a salad that was very large and good but remarked that the meat in it was not tender. We had brought a cake to be delivered to the table after the meal. After we were ready to leave we asked for the box to take the remainder of the cake home. It took forever to find this box so we waited almost a half hour more before leaving. We will not be going back to this restaurant. Not worth the price for what we got. \r \r \r more

Always good, always pleased 8/17/2010

We, along with many of our family and friends have frequented this California Dreaming Restaurant in Duluth many times since they opened. We have always been very happy with the food, service, and overall experience. Their croissants and side salads are to die for, better than any restaurant's we have been too. We have always been happy with the main course entrees we have ordered as well. I am making a reservation tonight for a family celebration for my mother's 90th birthday celebration and everyone is happy we are going there. more

Very disappointing Experience 7/29/2010

Very disappointing experience, especially being from Greenville, SC where the California Dreaming there is the best. My boyfriend and I traveled 45 min ti dine at the restaurant, and the service was not good, the salad dressing was watered down, my baked potato was hard, and the barbecue chicken was tiny compared to what I was use to in SC. I'm extremely disappointed because I begged my boyfriend to make the drive there, and assured him it would be worth the drive. Oh and forgot about. The tea; it was horrible, we had to add packets of sweet n low just to make it tolerable. In closing I would like to say I will never visit or recommend this restaurant again more

not recommended unless you feel you just have to try once 4/12/2010

The place has a nice atmosphere. bathroom sinks and faucets are beautiful. Food probably mediocre. It's an over priced applebee's. Everything was a bit too sweet for my taste. \r The server was dressed as if I should expect exceptional service, but its about the same service you would get at a local steak and shake, maybe a little less.\r \r Overall, the place looks fancy so if you've exhausted all options for dining, stop by, but it's nothing special. I had the ribs and I think the baby backs you get a chili's is probably better. The nachos are better at Friday's. Definitely not the best value for your money, but you pay for all their overage so if you consider that then I guess its alright. \r \r Place looked fancy, but not a whole lot of substance. Pros: the place itself is a nice place even have the kohlers sink Cons: probably why the price is the way it is more

Awesome Drinks- & Valentine's Day Special! 1/21/2010

While visiting the restaurant over the weekend with my friends (enjoying the amazing $1.95 drinks) & I noticed they have an awesome Valentine's Special for two for only $45! I don't remember exactly what it includes, but it comes with a starter, entrees for two and a big dessert to share. It's an awesome deal, I've looked into other places, and this seems to be the best. I will definitely be there! Pros: $1.95 Drinks! more

I'm in love with the croissants... 10/29/2009

Everytime I have come to California Dreaming in Duluth, I recieve the best and most prompt service. I always try something new (or a new salad, to be exact) and last time it was the Broiled Salmon Salad. Can you say amazing?! I asked for my Salmon to be cooked a little rare, and it came out perfectly atop of my lovely salad. It was amazing, and of course the croissant made it perfect. I can't wait to return! Pros: DELICIOUS honeybuttered croissants Cons: only one croissant per salad! why not 5? more

I ATE THE BROCCOLI!!!!!!!! 10/25/2009

Had ordered the fish of the day with some kind of chipolte topping and it was fabulous! I ordered it with only broccoli as my side because it was my favorite. How odd that someone wrote a review about broccoli! That person must have gone to a different restaurant because our food was AWESOME! It was so different and the place was really happening. There were alot of people and it wasn't even a weekend night. It was just a Tuesday and it was busy! Definitely plan on becoming a regular!! Pros: AWESOME FOOD Cons: Need SUSHI!!!!!!!!!!!! more

Great Food & Wonderful Service 10/6/2009

My Husband and I came on a busy Saturday night. Even though it look packed, the Hosts were polite and assured us a short waiting time. Shortly after we got our pager, it buzzed anyway. They were all capable of describing some food we had questions about and helped us a lot. Once we were sat our server was nice and got our food our swiftly. Everything was great, we will definitely be returning! Pros: friendly staff more

Great Ribs and House Salad 4/10/2008

Other people reviewed this place and said the ribs were dry and not good. I think the ribs are great. Put the extra sauce they give you on them if you think they are dry. If you like fall off the bones ribs I think you'll like them. I love'em. Also the house salad is great with the honey dripped crousant rolls on top. My standard fare is the ribs, the house salad and a loaded baked potato. Delicious! And the bar is great too. I usually get a premium margarita with Patron etc. It is loud, but it is fun too. Pros: Great Ribs. Incredible house salad. Cons: Can be noisy and loud. more

So, So ? 2/22/2008

Kennesaw, GA - location\r \r We (2 of us) went on a Fri. evening around 7:30 to 8:00pm, it was busy. \r \r The decor is nice and pleasant. It was loud. \r \r The hostesses about 10 were huddeling at the hostess station, gave us a pager and said 40 min. We were seated after a couple who came 5 min. after us and before a few couples who were waiting when we arrived. We asked about it - they said they made a mistake and we were next. \r \r The food is high in price for what you get compared to similar resturants in the area. \r \r House salads are good. We both had baby back ribs - they were taste but dry and over cooked. Not alot of meat on the ribs. \r \r The service was good and timely. \r \r Was not overly impressed by our first visit.\r \r Pros: Ambience, Parking Cons: Incompetent Hostesses, Disappointing Food, Overpriced more

Never had a bad menu choice! 2/18/2008

I've never had a bad menu choice at this restaurant. I go there with my girlfriends several times a year, bypassing many other restaurants on the way. For me, personally, I'm working my way through the extensive martini list. Several months ago they dropped the long list from their menu, but a few of the servers still have it, so make sure you ask for it if you are an adventurous martini drinker. more
