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 return most for the chicken kebab with salad, described as tasty and fresh, with the mixed chicken and lamb kebab and the kofte close behind. The meat is called tender, juicy and succulent, and staff are described as friendly, polite and welcoming even with a full grill. One reviewer notes the pitta goes soggy from the juices and there is not much doner meat on the plate.
