I’ve tried Marie Callender’s in LA before, This was my first time visiting this location, and I loved everything about it! I had such a great experience at Marie Callender’s! The salad bar was fresh, fully stocked, and had so many great options to choose from!! One of my favorite parts was the Pick Two or Pick Three lunch menu — it’s such a good deal and lets you mix and match soups, salads, and sandwiches so you can try a little of everything. Perfect portion sizes and the French dip sandwich I got was really delicious!
Their happy hour is definitely worth checking out too, they have half off appetizers! Great value for the quality and portions you get. When you first walk in, you’re greeted by an extremely friendly host named Joseph I don’t know if he was just a host or a manager but he was so friendly and lovely to interact with! The cornbread here is phenomenal and their pie selection is unmatched. Very good Moscow mules as well lol

It’s a great place for classic dishes like turkey, meatloaf, and shepherd’s pie, some of my favorites. I enjoy meeting family and friends here for brunch since there are plenty of choices, especially because they serve both breakfast and lunch. They could improve their pies, but I do appreciate the complimentary slice during birthday celebrations. Service has always been good.

Reviewed based solely on pie and cheesecake.
I originally came in to buy a few different slices of flavored pies to try but they had a special going on for $5 off whole pies. I ended up buying a whole cheesecake and chocolate pie instead. The flavors were light, not overly sweet or heavy. I wish the pie crust was a little harder or firm instead of crumbly. The chocolate reminded me of chocolate pudding in a cup. Overall, they were ok.

Extensive breakfast selection with large portions. All day salad bar. Excellent coffee and free banana bread. Children’s menu. Friendly service. Hope to revisit soon!

It has been so long since we have had Marie Callender’s!!! There are none in Arizona, but this was worth it!! The food was as good as I remembered. I had a 3 egg between ya can’t, and my wife had a good old-fashioned pot pie. We were here on 3/9/25. A must stop.

We had ordered a Banana Meringue Pie for Thanksgiving and had a pickup date/time of Wednesday, one day earlier at 12noon. Boy was I impressed!!! They had a popup tent pickup area for their pre-ordered Thanksgiving feasts, and a designated pickup area for those who had pre-ordered pies. Not only that, but they had an updated availability board for all the pies which they had available to purchase. The check-in process was very simple and fast, I picked up my pre-ordered pie, AND was able to order a 2nd pie which wasn’t pre-ordered and had wrapped up the entire process in under 5 minutes from arrival to departure. All the staff were very nice & helpful. The only thing which wasn’t smooth was the parking situation and the vehicle ingress/egress surrounding the restaurant. Now I highly doubt they get similar traffic such as this on days other than Thanksgiving, Easter, Mother’s Day, Christmas Eve and so on. Overall, huge praise to Marie Callendar’s for making pie and Thanksgiving feast meal pickup as simplified as possible for us patrons! I’m very impressed!

I hadn’t been to a Marie Callender’s in forever so I suggested it for lunch the other day. I had seen online that they had lunch specials which included a piece of pie for dessert. That sounded pretty good for the price. I decided to order the shepherd’s pie with salad and so did my lunch companion. The salad was kind of bland and lacking in dressing although I don’t like it when they dump on too much either. They were nice dark greens. The shepherd’s pie was much larger than I was expecting. We each only were able to eat half of it and brought the other half home for lunch the next day. It was a little salty but still delicious, I got the key lime pie with graham cracker crust, the main reason I came here, lol. I’ve been eating this pie since probably the 1970s, the first time I came here but to a different location. It was as delicious as I remember although I remember the graham cracker crust being even thicker and more buttery. All in all we had a great lunch for a great price. We might come back sometime on a Sunday when all the appetizers are half off. That way we can order about four different appetizers and just share them and call it lunch.

A long-time favorite of the family. The location is easy to access off of the 8 freeway. There is ample parking available.
During our recent visit, the staff was friendly and helpful. The fresh strawberry pie we purchased for the occasion was delicious. The berries were plump and juicy with a perfect amount to glaze to sweeten them perfectly. The whipping cream is made on site, and it is delectable.

Marie Callender’s was a solid breakfast spot. I enjoyed scrambled eggs, French toast, and sausage links. Old-school vibe, impressive they’re still around. Good value, no complaints. 4/5 stars.

Went here for lunch for the first time and it was very good!
We took our 11 month old and the high chair buckle was sticky. The man who showed us to our table said, “let me go hunt for a high chair” which to me, was a sign that they don’t get used or cleaned very often.
Most of the patrons seem to be older.
They are also very wheelchair accessible. The servers were very polite and considerate. Our server, Kari, was extremely considerate when giving us our water while we were looking at our menus, to mention that she could serve our table before giving her attention to a much larger party.
I ordered a Lunch combo and chose half sandwich of Marie’s Meatloaf and Potato Cheese Soup. My husband ordered the French Dip and Caesars salad. The meatloaf was scrumptious and so was the creamy soup. My daughter loved the soup, too. The French dip and Caesars was okay – kind of bland and just salty. The complimentary cornbread was fluffy and almost dessert-like. The value was also good. Prices were surprisingly appropriate.
Marie Callender’s is a quality family restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. Good American food for decent value. The pies are their specialty….make sure you take a whole one home with you! Also, keep an eye out for pie of the month deals.
