I placed a pick up order Friday for 15 people; all the orders had changes like no tomatoes on this one or not bacon on this one. I was worried after being on hold to place my order for several minutes. However, after placing my order with a woman who admittedly did not usually place to-go orders, I was reassured as she was polite, patient, and knowledgeable regarding the menu. After taking my name and number she told me that the usual young woman who took to-go orders would call me back with total price and time it would be ... read more

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!

Not my favorite restaurant – 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 orde... read more

Always good, always pleased – 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 ev... read more

Very disappointing Experience – 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... read more

not recommended unless you feel you just have to try once – 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. 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. 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 ... read more

Awesome Drinks- & Valentine's Day Special! – 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!

I'm in love with the croissants... – 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!
