Would have been 5 stars if it weren't for the rude BARTENDER!!!!! We came from out of town and was there over a hour before closing time on a MONDAY with onlyone other customerin the entire restaurant..the bartender was in a rush and extremely rude to us and made a very unprofessional comment when we walked in along with the drinks he made being returned because they tasted like soap as well. If it weren't for the yummy food and the sweet waitress that made up for the...

Good prices. Decent food. Cool atmosphere, nice beer and amazing staff.

Vegetarian options: The usual vegan options are there. Notions exciting but the chef made a roll special and it was good. I modified a meat based roll and substituted vegan stuff which was great but I got a $3 up charge. Hate when I pay for all the expensive meat only to pay again for additions. The vegan tax. Try the Japanese taco with avocado. Service was perfect! Their staff is the best!

Jilly and a young man served us yesterday. Their customer service was so great, the food and green tea were absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing and the price was affordable. My mom, sister and I sat outside. Since moving to Chico almost 2 years ago, Big Chico Japanese Restaurant is one of our favorite restaurants. That’s saying a lot since we literally only have 2 favorite restaurants in all of Butte County.
