California Steak & Fries

I love this place… The food is delicious but the service was horrible usually it’s a nice girl there but it must be her day off or something! Anyways my order was wrong because they added mayo on my fiesta chicken after my first bite in my car I realized it (of course my order was to go) I had to run back in… now in a hurry and the guy makes me wait until he’s done with his PERSONAL phone conversation to assist me… The guy gets off the phone and then proceeds to re-​make my order NOT washing his hands at all. If I wasn’t late I would have demanded my money back but I said ugh why bother I did not want to be the lady who goes crazy on the rude fast food worker who apparently hates his job

If i could give them a half a star i would. Disgusting burnt tasting steak sandwich and freezer burnt fries. Way to spendy for this crap. Will never go here again.

Food was disgusting. Employees are rude and unfriendly.
I will never go back to this place.
Not to mention is duty inside the sitting area.

What a waste of $ 10. Fries were barely warm, and chicken fingers tasted so processed. Had to pay extra for upgrade to Horchata. How stupid. Nothing more I can say about this place. Just don’t do it.

They advertise as halal but yet have ham cooking on the same grill. How on earth is that halal ?
It’s in a mall so not bad but for heavens sake do not call or advertise it as halal
Very disappointing

Been here several times and the food is pretty good, but the service here SUCKS! The cashier says hi, but doesn’t even look at you. He acts sooo annoyed as he takes your order. If you don’t want to be in a place that services guests… find something new!

So many options to choose from and I decided on this place. My daughter got a regular California burger which consisted of beef patty, onions, lettuce, tomatos and a cup of mayonnaise. I got the salmon burger and pizza Fries. Both bland with no flavor at all. Should have just gone to Burger King instead. Avoid unless you love bad food.

Very disappointed by this place. I originally ordered the spicy buffalo sandwich then switched over the the Philly because it was bland. Buffalo is supposed to be spicy but it was so not spicy at all. The Philly cheesesteak wasn’t any better. The sandwich was super oily & greasy. It wasn’t worth $ 8 + and the cashier didn’t even bother to return the difference from the buffalo to the Philly sandwich. This spot is overpriced and the food is below par.

OMG where the hell do you start on this place. First, they are overpriced for the amount of food they give as a so called MEAL.
The 1 star is for the delicious strawberry lemonade!
Customer service TERRIBLE! I made the mistake for the first time not reading Unilocal before I tried this place.
They have these little sandwiches that took me 8 bites to eat and I am a VERY slow eater and I like to enjoy my bites so I take small bites (I hope your getting my drift right now). I got this little condiments cup worth of fries and once again the delicious strawberry lemonade all for… almost $ 12! WTF??? this should’ve been a $ 6 subway meal! The meat was so salty I thought I was about to have a stroke from high cholesterol on the spot! But being as I just spent $ 12 on this small, salty whatever I was going to eat and go to the hospital later.
This place is ridiculous and will probably be gone soon! I’ll pray for that tonight! Anyways save your $ 12 and go somewhere else because this place isn’t worth the money, time or rudeness you encounter just trying to get lunch.

Please dont go there. very rude and disrespectful I went there to order garden party sandwich combo. the girl in front was very nice and helpful then I started waiting for my food and was talking on phone when the chef name «paul» told me“pinche madre your food is ready” he thought I don’t know Spanish but I knew that means «mother fucker your food is ready». I just never replied and waiting on my lawyer. the food was flooded with oil and chilli which I couldn’t eat m all. This place should be closed for ever because they can’t meet the Westfield standards. Because Westfield is a world wide big brand and cheap business like these are ruining Westfields reputation.

This place can have potential but customer service sucks! Cashier was rushing me. I was still looking at the menu… she suggested on the Philly sandwich. I paused as I wanted to see what else was on the menu… she said try it, it’s really good… there was no line but she must have had something to do.
So i just ordered that. Ordered the combo and waited. It was done rather quickly. But when I went to get it, there was only a brown back with i assumed was mine. Cook stepped away and didn’t even bother to see who grabbed the bag.
No customer engagement was a turnoff.
The tries were ok but not fresh. Steak sandwich was extremely salty. Yucky… I would have gone back to take it back but I had to go back to work. Waste of time and money.
Will not return.

Sandwiches are delicious! I usually get the ham delight with pineapple, it’s soo good. Like any other place extra items are extra! Worth it on your sandwich. Also the strawberry lemonade, natural strawberries. Customer service is okay, your always going to get good or bad at any place.

I love this place! The steak sandwiches are simply the very best. The only reason why I’m not giving it a 5 star rating it’s because the cashiers that I have encountered have zero customer service skills.

Maybe the fact that this place had zero line should have been my first clue. But nooo, a spicy buffalo chicken cheesesteak sounded too good to pass up. The sandwich was aggressively average. Not terrible, but barely spicy. Nothing good about it really even stood out. It just… was. The workers looked like they would literally rather die than spend another minute working there. When you’re one of a dozen options in a food court, maybe try a little harder to not suck. I would never go back there, ever.

The food gets 4 stars (for mall food) the service gets one star. The cashier was rude, robotic and not at all helpful. When we received our order my daughters sandwich was beef as opposed to the chicken she’d ordered. They slowed corrected the order with no apology. It would’ve been nice tie them to replace the fries; since hers were now cold and barely edible

This place needs a new cashier person because the guy taking the orders on Sunday morning @ 11:20am 09/​13/​2014 had something stuck up his anus. This place ain’t shit with rude punks

I have been going to California Steak and Fries for years. The one at the here has the worst service. There are two girls that are there during the week at lunch time. The shorter girl is nice. However the taller girl will screw up your order and give you an attitude about it. She is very short with every customer, and acts like she doesn’t want to be there. Sounds like a complaint that should go to the owner. (Might be the next item on the to do list)
I always go with the chicken sandwich. It’s good, but not great, but has always been consistent. (that’s why the extra star) And the cooks are always cool. One of the cooks still works there from when I use to go to California Steak and Fries at the Westside Pavilion about 13 years ago.
Go to this place at your own risk, but avoid the taller girl by all costs!

I must admit, this place either gave me gas or contributed to me contracting gas. Either way I wouldn’t go to this eatery anymore. There are other places to eat that are much more tasty and gas resistant.
Also they prepared my sandwich with the insides bursting out on the top, which made it very difficult to eat. And I dnt know about you but I get very uncomfortable with the idea of eating something out…

What a waste of money.
Cons:
Massively overpriced for what you get. $ 10 for a crappy sandwich and too many fries.
The veggie «party» is less of a party than a ’bout of manic depression. Disgusting. Oily, greasy, and thrown on crappy white bread. All I can say is buy a bottle of oil, a loaf of Wonderbread, and some bell peppers at 99 Cents Only and make it yourself. I’m sure it’ll taste better. And on a veggie the avocado should be included. That would be the «meat» so-​to-​speak.
The fries were incredibly salty. I love salty things, but even wiping the salt off of them, they were too salty. If you have salt off to the side, why don’t you let the customer add it themselves.
Pros:
None.
Avoid this place at all cost. And, for the owner, whoever you are, get it together. Make a veggie PATTY and reduce the oil. You don’t need to make the sandwich greasy to be good. Frankly, I threw 85% of the sandwich away and 70% of the fries. Downsize the portions and charge less. Don’t be a douchbag owner that forces his patrons to purchase unreasonably large sizes of items. If a fat person wants to order more, let them. For the reasonably sized population, which is the majority in this area, DOWNSIZE, BUDDY!

LOVE THIS SANDWICH AND THE FRIES. Hate spending $ 10 bucks for em.
When they were located in the Westside Pavilion, Cali Steak and Fries served up some tasty eats. But now, in the Westfield, with the jacked up prices? No bueno.
If you’re rolling in money and like a good cheesesteak (No, not a Philly), head over to this spot for a tasty sandwich and some pretty good fries (when they’re cooked right). Greasy, tasty, and filling. I suggest the steak with provolone, bell peppers, onions, and TERIYAKI SAUCE ((the ultimate insider secret)).
Just can’t justify the price to portion ratio when Submariner (on Centinela, north of Culver) is just a couple miles away, serving up $ 6 cheesesteaks. And Great Western Steak and Hoagie is also up the road shelling out better deals. Maybe time to drop them prices before you end up closing them doors, CaS&F.
«Shame on you, California Steak and Fries! You took a good thing and dropped a steaming dump all over it and your followers. If I’m paying $ 10 bucks for a combo, you’d better come to my table and gimme that happy ending we all know I deserve. I shouldn’t have to ask. C’mon… You’re better than that.»
