I used to love this place, but highly disappointed this last time. Server was awful, obviously inexperienced , acted like she didn't want to be there (thinking from her open cough she didn't feel well) that we were a bother and didn't know the menu. Hostess was nice and cook came out to apologize for the server bringing out only a piece of chicken on a chicken parmigiana order, she later stated she didn't know what it was and that it was supposed to come with noodles ??‍♀️. Cook was very nice and it was nice of him to come to the table. Food was ok at best. I will give another try because I've had more good experiences here rather than not.

We had reservations at 1:15. We sat outside waiting for 2 hours. Left there and walked in to another restaurant and as our food was sat in front of us we received the notification that our table was ready. Other people that came in after us were being sat before us.

Made reservation, arrived ON TIME, told by hostess we would have to wait 45 MINUTES TO AN HOUR to be seated. Uhh, NO! Restaurant's fault they are overbooking seating. Too many other restaurants I can patronize to put up with nonsenseike this....

Had reservations for 6 on Mother’s Day. Showed up at the reserved time 1230, waited for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Why take reservations if you can’t honor them. We sat at the bar, met a couple, they ordered an hour ago and hadn’t been served. Decided to leave, ruined Mothers Day lunch.

30 minutes for 1 togo California dreaming salad at 9pm on a less than half full restaurant? Unreal. There is nothing to cook to make the salad. Takes less than 1 minute to bag and box. Cmon yall.

It is easy to understand why California Dreaming is the favorite restaurant in Baldwin county. Our experience has always been excellent and far above expectations. The entire staff is committed to providing a great dining experience for all their customers. Our server, Caiman, was very attentive to all of the request in our large group. He was very personable as well as providing excellent service. We are always comfortable in recommending this restaurant to our local friends and guests that visit from other areas.

Sarah was amazing! She was the best waitress I think we have ever had, and she was full of energy. The food was cooked to absolute perfection and because everything was perfect on our anniversary dinner, Sarah got a fat tip. Keep up the good work Sarah. You will own a restaurant with your attitude!
