Shakey's is a fun place! At lunchtime it was filled with families and local workers stopping in for pizza, mojos, chicken and salad bar. We purchased the brunch special and had a little of everything. As I remembered it, all the food was pretty good. There were pitchers of beer flowing, music and hot food. What else could you ask for from a pizza parlor? A good option for this type of food. Parking: There is a large parking lot behind the restaurant if you cannot find a space in front of the place.
I've been going to Shakey's since I was a little kid. Never have I had a bad experience at any of the different locations. Today was my first visit to the Sylmar location. To say it was horrible is an understatement. If this was my first experience, I'd never have Shakey's again. The chicken was oily yet dry. The pizza was undercooked and barely had any pepperoni. Mojo potatoes were good but few. Bugs flying in the bathroom. Many of the arcade machines were unplugged/broken. Tables and seats were not wiped down.
Justice for Michael Martinez. A beloved, esteemed employee. Give him a raise for 5 stars.
Very busy on the weekends. Not the cleanest of places. The food is great, though.
