California Dreaming

We had a table of six and our waiter Jason G was very busy, but he was very attentive and helpful. He was an excellent waiter. The only negative food experience was the BBQ chicken nachos were burnt on top, otherwise it was tasty.

Service was not good. Waited over 20 min for our orders to be taken after water was dropped off. Seemed like we were forgotten. Manager came over after we said something and played it off, taking no responsibility, nor was anything done to fix the mistake.

Reservation was ready on time. Food was served hot and as requested. Waitress was polite and knowledgeable. Portions were worth the money overall. The only draw back was requesting side sauces , waiting for utensils that weren't brought out. The seafood trio was underwhelming. Seafood was prepared fresh and although battered was not dried out. Would not hesitate returning.

Sheldon was amazing! He was very attentive and seemed to really enjoy his job!! Very friendly too!

California Dreaming is a great restaurant. Food is always good, staff professional and friendly.

We had a great meal. The Poke bowl was great and the Steak was cooked perfectly. The staff were great and Wyatt our waiter went above and beyond for us. Must have a croissant!!!!

We had a great time and enjoyed the food All the people at the restaurant were very nice and friendly

Food was amazing and quick!!! Very reasonably priced and delicious. Highly recommend. Definitely order the crissoants as an appetizer.

Everything was great and our server was excellent with everything we need and very nice and respectful.

Our Server was amazing, the salads were fabulous as usual. Someone in our party ordered the ribs and said they were delicious. Two of us ordered the marinaded sirloin and were sadly disappointed. They were extremely hard to cut and chewy. This is very odd because this is my favorite dish there and order it every time we go. It has never been like this. Unfortunately, I talked my husband into ordering it this visit. Hope they didn't change vendors!

Food is always good and the service is excellent! Love the pork chops and steaks. Really good she crab soup.

This was our second trip to this restaurant. We did have to wait about 5 minutes for the table - not bad. Same as first time. We asked for handicap friendly and our table (booth) was on far left back corner of the restaurant. We had to walk half of the restaurant with our veteran with Parkinsons and cane. It was busy when we arrived but no wait, and little turnover on tables around us. Service was good except it took a a very long for food compared to the first time we went. Pretty much from same food stations so no real reason that I could see. Food arrived without meeting instructions- like one guest was asked if she preferred tarter or cocktail sauce. She said cocktail and got tarter. We were not offered dessert or a second round of drinks - had to flag waiter. Naturally it was exceedingly loud - mostly due to the structure of the room. If you don't mind competing with 50 people talking at one time, probably not an issue.

Food was really good. Oysters here can be quite good but you must ask for lightly fried otherwise as we experienced they were hard crunchy. Nd way overcooked. The second batch was very good. The she crab soup here is the best I've found on the Grand Strand; however , again you must request extra sherry if you want the soup to be as good or even better than you can get in Charleston. The Peel and eat shrimp are delicious. The salmon on the salad is also very good and I would recommend to everyone. Also I the croissant s are heavenly. All in all you'll be very pleased with the food. I'm dreaming about returning!

Dining area, where we sat was poorly lit. Had a blackened chicken with Alfredo sauce.. chicken was dry Alfredo sauce was not creamy, instead sticky..  buffalo chicken was dry also seem like it's sat under the hot lamp for too long,. Overall, just a mediocre dining experience. Which is sad because we frequently this restaurant in the past and always been very happy.

Great food as always. May have had a new server, had to ask for plates for appetizers, never came back to fill teas, waited a good 10 minutes to get check, then another 15 until he came back for payment. Walked by several times and said be right there. We will return because food is consistently wonderful, but this was not a good visit.
