Cali's Teriyaki

The food was okay in flavor. It did not blow me away. The delivery was also covered in sauce from one opening due to how it was packed. The bowls were incredibly disappointing in quantity of food. There was hardly any in the bowl. I would understand if the price weren’t so high. I am not going back and would not recommend.

Im just done, because the people preparing the food are just plain dumb. Cant read in english or something. Every single time I order, and patly extra for stuff, THE WHOLE ORDER COMES COMPLETELY WRONG. If that cant do something as simple as get one plate right one time, I would seriously have trouble believing they are preparing the food safely.

Drove 30 minutes to find out it’s a ghost kitchen? Way over priced. And the menu shown on their website shows items they don’t even have. Waste of time and money.

Chicken and rice is my go to food choice. This place being called Cali teriyaki , the chicken teriyaki bowl is my first choice. I have ordered many times through this past year. It’s honestly hit or miss. Rice is hard to mess up but their chicken is not the best quality. Seems to be the trash chicken parts that they just toss in here. Last order was so terrible I had to throw the chicken out and just eat the rice. May try again because it is so easy but might need to find a new go to spot.

Cloud kitchen drive so far for nothing …

Worst bowl I’ve ever had and even worse, it was $25. How can you charge $25 for a low quality orange chicken bowl?!

I got the basic chicken bowl. With tax, 14 bucks. Ordered 5 of those. So, 70 dollar lunch for my friends and I. I picked up my order in a large paper bag that was stapled shut and according to the person that brought it out, everything was inside. Upon arriving to my work site and opening the bag, I realized there was no silverware at all. I’m confused Cali, how am I supposed to eat rice and chicken? With my bare hands? Fingers maybe? I call and ask for an explanation on why silverware was not included. The guy who picked up said that due to state law, unless I ask for silverware, they don’t include it. No compensation or apology was offered. Great customer service there Cali! You’d be out of business 20 years ago with that mentality. I finally picked up some silverware from a local gas station instead of trying to drive back 15-20 minutes to Cali’s. Oh and about the food, it was horrible. Flame broiler, waba grill, teriyaki madness, all those taste 10 times better and include silverware with your order without asking for it. Do yourself a favor, avoid this place at all costs.

Delicious food made from very fresh ingredients! The sales clerks were really kind and helpful but there isn't much of a place to sit, especially when it's cold outside. The food though is 10/10. We've gotten it delivered before too and it arrived just as yummy!
