My dad would take the family to Sizzler on Sunday at 1pm. We all knew. There were often 20 of us there together. My dad died in 2016. The 9 grandchildren went to Sizzler for dinner to reminisce on the day we buried him. They loved the corn nuggets and their grandfather. Thanks for sharing this on of all days a Hurricane Sunday!❤.

Bill and Lisa, thanks for this video full of nostalgia! During my childhood, there was a Sizzler less than 3 minutes driving distance from our house. It was a special occasion event, and their salad bar/buffet was a true cornucopia of veritable delights. Still remember their fried, battered Corn nuggets 🌽. I was bummed when it closed and turned into a Lonestar Steakhouse.

When I was a pre-pubescent teen, my mindset was like "When I'm older I'm gonna buy a fast car and when I start dating beautiful women, I'm gonna to take them to the Sizzler! That'll impress them!". Cheesebread was 💯. If Taco 🛎put as much meat and sour cream as in Lisa's taco, I would go there 7 days a week. "Take entree home and just go to the salad bar." That is the most ingenious badass spectacular thing I've heard all weekend.

I use to work at a Sizzler restaurant back in the early 80's when I was in high school along with my 2 older brothers here in California. Also worked in one in Phoenix when I went to trade school. Both of these Sizzler restaurants closed years ago along with many others. Hard to believe that there are still some that are still open.

Where I live in the Bay Area, there’s only one Sizzler by me. Growing up, my family (extended family too) and I would frequent Sizzler after Sunday church where my mom would get the fried shrimp and the salad bar. Usually I would just eat off of her plate but I always specifically remembered the shrimp, salad bar and cheese toast. My mother passed away suddenly last year and on her birthday I like to go to sizzler and have her favorite nostalgic meal. It’s just a nice way for me to celebrate her in a lighthearted and different way. Happy travels Auntie Lisa and Uncle Bill!

Interesting fact: restaurants on the verge of bankruptcy often hire food consultants to design cost-effective and efficient meals based on mind hacks. This is largely because cost and service are top complaints for both owners and patrons. Food consultants are brought in to redesign or upgrade a menu and teach the staff tricks to perform efficiently and upsell hot bars and salad bars. Buffets and salad bars are a big money grub for them because this is where people like to graze and try different things while they're waiting for their entrées. A majority of the offerings at these bars contain fillers such as bread, pasta, soup, salad dressings, and cheeses. Meatballs are a sneaky way of adding fillers like breadcrumbs, milk, or cheese, for example. Cheesy bread is hard to resist. Salads, despite being thought of as "low calorie and light" are actually filling because there are more options, and people gravitate toward mayonnaise based dressings because the Italian dressing is usually either too sweet or too sour. Sometimes, there's soup included in the buffet/hot bar, so places will also make their dining area colder or vice versa, for example.

I think for awhile I got a little spoiled with all the new types of restaurants in the LA area, but coming back to Sizzler was a great feeling of nostalgia and was comforting. I hope they never go out of business.

Fun fact: We used to have Sizzler in Australia (e.g. Melbourne, where I'm from). I remember going there as a kid. The salad bar concept was relatively new to Australia at the time. Ordering a main meal was always a treat. It was probably the very first place where I tried calamari. I think it was a restaurant where people went for special occasions. We celebrated some family birthdays there. It's sad that Sizzler didn't stay very long in Australia because me and my family loved it. The restaurant we went to was always packed.

We had one in Campbelltown NSW . It was the last one to close in Australia. Everyone loved the sizzler toast. There was a promotion recently where a cafe chain got the rights to sell Sizzler toast for a limited time of 2 weeks recently. We were excited to try it for a nostalgic experience. My sister tried it and told me not to bother. It was pretty hit and miss. When I taught hospitality in high school we used to send some of our students there for work placement as part of their curriculum requirements. We also sent them to other restaurants too.

My family and I miss Sizzler’s in Hawaii. It was our go to place for a family dinner out. I especially loved their salad bar. I remember the crunchy chicken wings because it was very similar to Fremont’s Paradise Buffet chicken wings. Now that Paradise Buffet is no longer here, we haven’t found a place that comes close to their yummy wings. If my memory is correct , the Sizzler’s in Hawaii’s Malibu Chicken was not battered nor fried, but baked. It came with 2 pieces. I loved how the ham and cheese were melted on it and the chicken was very moist! I’m happy to know that Sizzler’s is still around on the mainland and I certainly will look forward to eating there next time I’m in CA. Mahalo for another great family dining video!

It's really funny how much of a nostalgia there is for Sizzlers for a lot of us who grew up in the 80s/90s in southern CA. There's one in Buena Park, CA that's still open but I haven't been to a sizzlers in like 20 years. It was the only restaurant that my family went to because you could get a decent steak and potato and a salad bar without spending a lot of money. My dad always got the salad bar, I would get a sirloin steak and potato and mom got a sirloin steak and the fried shrimp. My dad would always give up his soft serve cup for me and that was my dessert. The cheesy bread was always crunchy and yummy.

I really appreciate they work they you both put into your channel and the fact that you're enjoying what you do is what's most impressive to me. Steak and malibu chicken with rice pilaf and extra toast was my jam. Would love to have it again sometime. Mahalo!

Hi Bill and Lisa, wow, so loved this vid. Talk about nostalgia! Thank you. My fave was a chicken breast dinner which I took home or hubby ate. Then the salad bar! all I ate was chicken wings flats dipped in ranch and clam chowder until I was stuffed to the top. Sometimes a taco. They had a good cranberry walnut salad too. Thanks for the mems. Karla in Cali.

darn I miss Sizzler's. No more in Hawaii. I really enjoyed their chowder and cheesy bread. We always tried to time or visit to have both breakfast and lunch buffet in one visit.

Such a nostalgic restaurant. My teen son loves Sizzler. I'm glad we have a few in San Diego.

Bill and Lisa, I always enjoy your videos! Often refer to them before heading to Vegas so I can check out at least one or two places I have not eaten at (recently tried Straight Up Cafe...it was delicious, a thumbs up from all my friends that ate there with me. Here's a very Sizzler-specific pro-tip: if you think it might be worth driving a little bit to the location in Buena Park (7902 Orangethorpe Ave. -- just off the 91 at Beach Blvd.), I go to this one specifically for their awesome salad bar. On weekends they have Menudo (& 3 other soups) plus other salad bar items that I didn't see in your video (or maybe I just missed seeing it on the video) from the Torrance location in the hot bar area: mini corn dogs, chicken nuggets, carnitas, soft tortillas, tortilla chips, mac & cheese, corn on the cob, bread pudding and occasionally fajita veggies and onion rings. Weekend lunchtime some of these hot bar items are swapped out for breakfast sausage, french toast sticks and other more breakfast items. In the cold salad area: broccoli salad, tuna pasta salad, carrot salad, ambrosia salad, cookies 'n cream dessert and occasionally desserts in little cups. Plus, the ever popular soft serve ice cream machine with self-serve toppings too! This is my go-to Sizzler spot, even though I live closer to 3 others...this Buena Park location is great. Staff is also awesome.

Maybe we were missing those items because we went during the week? Folks have mentioned about the carnitas, that sounds good!

Hi Lisa and Bill, I hope pure both doing great. We used to have sizzler chains all over my state here in Melbourne Australia, it was so awesome I loved that Buffett. They closed them down many years ago because of food safety and hygiene regulations and problems unfortunately. I used to love it and miss it,
