Quick info
About The California Grill
On Spring Rd in Ipswich, The California Grill is a grill serving a menu built around kebabs. The Mixed Shish Kebab, Gyro, and Kebab Meat & Chips make up the core offerings, alongside chicken and kofte kebab options, each served with salad, garlic sauce, and chili sauce. A mixed kebab and chips option is also on the menu for those wanting both together. The space offers a dine-in option alongside orders to go, so customers can sit and eat on site rather than only collecting food at the counter. It opens daily and takes walk-ins, with no reservations needed. The kitchen sticks to four core dishes rather than a sprawling menu, keeping the focus on the kebab range.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers consistently praise the chicken kebab, several calling it tender and full of flavour, with the kofte kebab and mixed kebab with salad and garlic sauce also singled out. One diner notes the pitta went soggy from the meat juices, though still rated it very good overall. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, polite, and welcoming.
