The entire evening was nothing less than superb! We actually arrived 15 minutes past our initial reservation and still got seated within minutes! The food was delicious and the staff were impeccable! One of our friends had never been to a California Dreaming before and he was very impressed by everything! Thank you so much! The pork chops, the blackened chicken pasta and the Caeser salad with chicken were just some of the dishes that were ordered and we all loved our dinners!
