“this place is utterly delightful. wonderful setting, fantastic ice cream. we go there regularly and love it every time!“

“Decided to try this with my family today. Ordered a different entre for each one of us as well as two appetizers of which we all shared so we could get a better idea of what we would like for the next time. What a pleasant surprise! Every bite was delicious and unique! We met the owner Lilli who was very sweet and willing to please. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes a casual, welcoming, friendly, and different but absolutely tasty dining experience. Way to go Lilli!“

“Best pho in Chico. Had three other spots in town and this is by far the best. Comparable to the bigger cities like Sacramento and the Bay Area. The only negative part of their pho is the size/quantity of noodles. If you're used to other pho restaurants sizes, this place is definitely on the smaller end.“

“Super delicious, flavorful and spicy! 😋“

“highly recommend this place. great food at a decent price we definitely be dri ing the hour back atleast 1 or 2 times a month“

“Absolutely amazing. The owner who slightly resembles Dweezil Zappa went above and beyond and helped us have a better Easter for our family gathering. Have enjoyed coming here for years and will do for years more. Thank you so so much. If you live in Chico you have to hit up the nook and if you don’t then you should stop while here and take some with you. Absolutely delicious every time.“

“Love this place. Can't miss it whenever my son comes back to Chico.“

“The Banshee is a great downtown Chico bar and restaurant experience. It's a bar atmosphere, near the university with foot traffic you'll find a mix of patrons from students to white and blue collar, giving this place a kind of charm. It can be very loud when busy. Smallish menu, great food, healthy portions, many beers on tap, mixed drinks etc. Staff is great.

Parking: Parking close by can be tricky at times. Easier if willing to walk a few blocks.“

“Now thats what I call an egg and cheese bagel!“

“So yummy and fresh Can’t go wrong plenty to eat lots of yummy different types of teas.“

“Authentic Jamaican food, Fantastic atmosphere/great Vibes! 🇯🇲“

“We visited for the first time on Mother’s Day. LOVE that they take reservations and we were able to choose between dining room or patio. There was a DJ and the moms in our party were given fresh cut roses. Our hostess was very knowledgeable and arranged a special mocktail for my sister who is nursing. Portions were very generous, everything was tasty, great value and experience. This will be our new tradition.“

“Everything. It’s perfect. The redwood sandwich co. That’s what’s on my mind Facebook. There’s a few places in town I will always visit. If you haven’t been here yet, you’re not trying hard enough. You’re hungry, you need a sandwich that feels like a sandwich. You don’t want one of those wimpy limp sandwiches that you find for $5. You know the ones, with the iceberg lettuce and the bread that tastes like nothing. You want a MANS SANDWICH. You’re not walking around on your twinkly toes. You might wear a tutu, but that doesn’t define your food desire. That’s right. You want mouth feel. You want to put it in your mouth and not talk for at least 10 minutes. You want food that makes everything stop and take pause. You’re grown, but this sandwich makes your hands look like a child. You’re ready to eat. And eat you shall. That tri tip sandwich is dripping with goodness. It’s a feast between two slices of bread. The thanksgiving sandwich makes you wish you spent your holiday here. Pair that with their soups that don’t quit, or their Mac and cheese that stops the world, you’re in food coma and all you’ve done is smell it. If you’re lucky, you’ll make it there when they have a pork belly special. It will turn you. You won’t know what hit you. But you’ll spend the month dreaming about that sandwich. You think you took a nap, but really, you closed your eyes to re live the feel of that sandwich in your hands, and no one had to know that you woke up eating your pillow. It’s ok, your secret is safe with me. Treat yourself. You deserve this.“

“Best of them all. My go to beer“

“Hands down, some of the absolute best food and cocktails in town. Christian’s menu + Franco’s mixology skills and humor make a long day at work easily forgotten. This is my Cheers with WAY better “bar food.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Cómida deliciosa y buen servicio“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊“

“Such good burritos, and they aren’t stingy they are huge! Such an amazing price! But I only like this one on Park ave and great customer service💗“

“Sitting outdoors is not quite my vibe even with the misters but I absolutely love their pizza, calzones and breadsticks. The only time I was disappointed was when I missed my drumsticks which they corrected at a later date. ? I just recently tried their hamburger pizza and it was absolutely delicious!“

“Vietnam Bistro is a nice place to eat. The food is fresh and tasty, with big portions. The pho is really good, and coffee was great.They also have some vegetarian options.

The staff is friendly, and the service is fast. It’s a simple, casual place, good for dining in or takeout. Worth checking out if you like Vietnamese food!“

“I have lived in this town for the last 26 years. First let me say that this is the BEST pizza -- not only because it's locally sourced where possible but also because they actually give you enough ingredients for a nutritious meal.

That is one of my major complaints about other places that serve pizza; there are places in town that do a decent business who serve pizza that is basically bread with $.25 worth of ingredients (if it's a vegetarian for example), where they take ONE mushroom and chop it into 10 slices and spread it around and a very small portion of a Green bell pepper or an onion and they spread all this around to make it look like there's a lot of food. And they don't give you much cheese. and they spread the tomato paste as if it were an expensive facial cream. You know who you are that make those kind of pizzas, and shame on you!

Vegetarian options: both vegetarian and meat and of course it's locally sourced as much as possible. The staff is friendly and I know the owner because my band played here several Times.

Parking: The parking lot probably holds 10 cars but along the side street there's a lot of parking no problem.

Kid-friendliness: they have chalk on every table that kids can draw on the table.“

“Always treated like a king here!“

“Ive never seen so many people say the same word in one review listing, “Concept” of course it was used well, but c’mon man! (Joe Biden Voice) To put it simply and not say it like the rest of these Sheeple, Mod Is The Shit! Its Bomb AF if you can have it your way like BK, but for the hipsters, this is the concept, there are concept car, those never sell to the public, there is concept art, usually never goes mainstream, and there is the “concept Pizza” its been conceptualized but not realized, these guys had a concept, they made it a mainstream reality, it worked, What a Great Concept!!!!💦🍆 , im hella stoned and the pizza is Fire!

Vegetarian options: Im not a vegan but they have cauli crust and veggies so i assume your good

Kid-friendliness: I got kids, nobody yells at your kids so it a good place, the only people who should yell at your kids is the parents and siblins“

“Best of them all. My go to beer“

“Got the Valentines Deal and it did not disappoint! Definitely recommend more than enough food for two people.“

“I had the Rambling Rose juice this morning at the Wednesday Farmer’s Market. It was absolutely delicious!! So fresh and bright. I highly recommend it.“

““Alternatives” too the norm.“

“Super dog friendly! I love taking client dogs on the patio😍“

“Terrific catering experience for my daughter's wedding. Pizza was delicious, wings were a big hit and the salads were amazing. Wedding went great and we had some left over for morning pizza. It was a beautiful day. Thank you for making it go so smoothly.“

“Great place for a paint and sip!“

“Cocodine is simply the best Thai food in Chico. Nobody else comes close. My go to is Panang Curry, beef, Thai hot xl! So amazing! The kids love the Chicken Rama!“

“Love the Handle Bar!
Great food, great service. It’s around the corner from my house so we pop in occasionally. This review is based on many visits. Lots of constantly changing beers on tap with ciders and other options like wine. Food faves are sausage crostini, spätzle, and the Reuben sandwich! Large portions are good for sharing if you’re a light eater like me.“

“Original East coasters here…….this was by far the closest thing to East coast pizza we have found! Excellent!“

“I usually get the Fuzzy Peach smoothie, and it's delicious every time! You can have them make any smoothie with fresh squeezed juice, which is the way I order it. The staff is always pleasant. They have a variety of protein boosts you can add to your smoothies, and they have a pretty big menu of food to select from. I haven't tried any food yet, but I'll update this review once I do. They also have ice cream, cake slices, baked goods, and gluten-free baked goods. My daughter has had the ice cream and said it was the best chocolate ice cream she's ever had.“

“I ordered for the first time here and I must say it’s amazing!!! So authentic! I will be returning for sure! Thank you for your amazing food that reminds me of my stay in Japan! 🥰“

“This has always been our go-to lunch spot in Chico, for over a decade now! Best salads and healthy reboot dishes in the area! You can’t go wrong with the kale slaw, eat your veggies, power boost, or polenta lasagna! Thank you Bacio’s for all the healthy and local foods you provide!“

“I am beyond impressed with Aca Taco. This place was recommended to me by friends who have been everywhere and are super selective—who said this place has the best authentic Mexican food in Chico. They were right. This is seriously the best Mexican food offered in Chico! I had a graduation party for my cousin with about 15 people to serve. I placed a lengthy detailed order online the day before for scheduled pick up on Saturday, and I got a huge discount for being a first-time customer. Their customer service is phenomenal—personable and helpful. They knew exactly who was picking up and all about the order. And we pretty much ordered a little bit of everything. The serving sizes were incredibly large, and everything was so fresh and cooked to perfection. I will be ordering again, and again, and again.“
