I'm a s***** for simple foods done well, and I prefer food that's full of flavor prior to adding sauce (sorry, USA and France). BUT WAIT. The girl that doesn't use ketchup on fries or bbq sauce on pulled pork says TRY THESE SAUCES! I learned that all Stix & Straws sauces are scratch-made in-house, and not in the "add seasoning packet to mayo" way. The concept here is similar to yakitori, but the protein options range from grilled fish (a must!) to chicken and waffles. All. On. Stix. The sides are homemade and tasty as well. The $19 4-Stix combo easily feeds two average lunch appetites, as it comes with rice + salad + an additional side. $19 FOR TWO PEOPLE?! Score.The downside is that it closes at 7:30pm and isn't open Sat-Sun... but all in all, if you're looking for a clean, tasty, no-frills strip mall lunch/early dinner, give it a shot

Stix n Straws feels very low quality as a restaurant. You walk in and they have a bunch of big screens displaying menus. Next to it, a big screen is playing a sports game. Under that is a paper sign with big all caps letters that telling teenagers “No this, No that.” I’m not even a teenager but it just leaves a sour taste in my mouth, a rain on my parade. I don’t think about ambiance when I go to fast food, but this wasn’t the vibe.Onto the food, it’s good. Nothing crazy good or bad. They have a lot of options for both sticks and sides, as well as drinks and sandwiches.I got a boba milk tea. They used to have great boba years before. This boba was terrible. The tea did not have a smooth milky taste. The boba was way too chewy, probably cooked too long and it tasted like water.

The sticks are always very yummy! My daughters love the tofu. The fries are amazing too! Quick delivery if you live close.

Wish I took pictures but we were too hungry. Got crispy meatball stick, shrimp, crispy chicken, chicken and waffles, crispy tofu. All were very good and come with sauces. All the sauce were really good, we liked the garlic and spicy sweet best. Also tried green salad, fries, sweet potato fries and corn fritters which were all really good. Fritters taste like corn dog batter. Waffles were crispy on the outside and had chunks of sugar on the inside which made it crunchy and really good! Ordered a 3 stick combo which was good for my son but way too much for my husband and me. The sticks are a good size. Will definitely be back

Best halal food in El Segundo! The owner was extremely nice and helpful. I try to go here every time I'm in town. Never disappoints!

STIX AND STRAWS IS SOOO AMAZING!!!!! Such a gem in El Segundo, really a hole in the wall halal place!I used to come here almost everyday when I worked in El Segundo and I miss coming here so much, everything on the menu is solid! Came here for at least 6 years straightIt's such a unique concept that I've never seen before and stix combos are perfect when you want to be healthy or if you want to indulge because you can customize it however you want. My favorite 3 stick combo is crispy chicken, shrimp, and grilled chicken or crispy fish and the sides I usually get sweet potato fries which are probably the best sweet potato fries I've had. Perfect crisp and batter!The burgers are also great, I've had the Hawaiian, southwest, BCR, and Buffalo and all of them hit the spot! The drinks are also very good, I got the acai berry brilliance and the chocolate marshmallow and nutty monkey, all solid! I really need to try the Thai iced tea tooEverything is super fresh, everything on the menu is halal, the service is amazing, parking is easy and free in the parking lotNow I specifically drive out 20-30 minutes just to come here!
Food is great! I come with my co-workers for lunch all the time, they have fast and nice service. The best sauce is the sweet chili ! Definitely a try for anyone in the area. They are closed on weekends !

Horrible service: I'm never going to recommend this establishment to my community due to cleanliness & unsuitable food service. Owner Imram is not the perfect fit to run such place.

I recommend the grilled fish and crispy chicken skewers with basmati rice and Caesar salad. I always have to think about whether I want to go healthy (veggies) or fries. Parking can be difficult during lunch.
the steak and shrimp plate was really good.
