39 Best American Restaurants near Palo Cedro

“Absolutely fantastic dinner and service. I was pleasantly surprised. Had the black & bleu burger and the schnitzel marsala, Absolutely 10/10“

“great breakfast! Amazing service! Ashley is the other main reason why we go there. Too bad the jealous owner talks smack about her behind her back. Lot of regulars stopped going there because of owners attitude. Highly recommended otherwise“

“Shasta County has a few examples of multi genre food restraunts. They're kind of the precursor to the whole fusion thing. Papi's offers Mexican, American and Chinese food and honestly does a good job at all three. Great place to get food for a big group. They have a drive through and you can order inside which is nice when you have a big vehicle that won't fit through the driveway. Gets busy when the high school is out. I have never eaten anything there that I didn't like and they are reasonably priced and you definitely a good value for what you pay .

Kid-friendliness: Small place but always friendly and welcoming. They have a variety of food so if you have a kid that wants a burrito, another that wants a hambuger and you want chicken teriyaki than this is the place for you. All of the different options are definitely good and makes for an easy one stop shop for a family.“

“I’m giving 4 stars even though more went wrong than went right. I hope this feedback can help this place succeed because it has potential.
Starting off, my partner and I both ordered a Coke, but the server came back to the table, explaining it was too “watery”. We were given Sprite instead.
My partner ordered the shrimp po boy, but was given the catfish po boy.
I ordered the catfish and was asked if I wanted ranch dressing with it. I asked for tartar sauce and was told they don’t have tartar sauce. They served it with a remoulade. As a Southern transplant, I love a good remoulade, but that does not go with catfish 🫤.
The food came out pretty quickly, but I was disappointed there was only one piece of catfish. In the South, you’d get 2 (minimum) or 3-4 pieces of fish.
I didn’t want a meal of mostly fries, so I left hungry (personally, would love to see a side of mac+cheese or a side salad option).
Our meal was over $65 for two people and we only got 1/4 of what we ordered. As we ate, our drinks were never refilled and the server never checked on our table again because he seemed to be the only one working.
Also worth noting - we sat in the back and the restrooms smelled awful!! I am not advocating for the restaurant to mask the smell with a bunch of air fresheners, but they desperately need to pour some bleach or vinegar down the floor drains to eliminate the mildew.
Not a great first impression, but I’d give it another chance because I am always looking for good Southern food in Northern California.“

“great food great service“

“We are so thankful to have this great lil burger place so close to us. Our favorite is the grilled ham/cheese on rye. Mistine and family are a wonderful part of our community.“

“One of the best bar b q I have ever had in my life“

“They are the bomb! I love this place!“

“We tried Lumberjacks again today after reading reviews on the Redding Restaurant Review and hearing they had new management and we were very impressed! The new manager, I believe his name tag said Gary was very personable, he was greeting folks as they came in and left. The food was hot, fresh and back to the normal portion sizes they used to have. We had stopped going due to poor management and just complete lack of customer care with the old manager. We will definitely be back! New management and team are wonderful 👏 😀.“

“Description of food did not include that vinegar is utilized in the recipe for San Francisco Joe’s Scramble. The vinegar so dominated the dish that I was unable to take more than one bite. Took home in hope other family might enjoy. Rest of meal was great. Bought fresh baked sliced loaf of bread to take home. Service Stellar!“

“I love Joe's for breakfast and lunch they're only open till 2:00 at this location but that's okay they don't make me sick most places like this make me sick Danny's the grease is too nasty IHOP is bad for me as well“

“I was instantly greeted by a friendly waitress who let me pick my place to eat. Drink was out fast and was ready to order food. I ordered the firecracker fish tacos, which came out timely. They were delicious, probably the best I've had. Was a very pleasant dinner but pretty pricey.“

“In the early 70’s my mom and I after shopping in town would stop by Dude’s for ice cream 🍦 and now my wife and I are continuing the tradition. If you haven’t had a Dude’s upside down cone in a cup soft serve 🍦 you are missing out on something very special and the kids that serve you are genuinely good people. There’s a reason why they are one of the longest serving drive-ins operating in Redding Ca. Don’t forget to get yourself a pastrami burger😎🇺🇸. God bless America and especially these UNITED STATES 🇺🇸“

“We come here about once a month now. Great place for kids as the train above will keep them entertained. I ordered the $20.00 1lb burger as seen in the picture and you can add all kinds of toppings! Also comes with 1 of 4 sides. Needless to say I had to cut it down in pieces that I could eat with one hand. The bun is even freshly made!“

“This was our first time to In-N-Out burger Although the front was fairly clean and organized. The workers were nice and friendly. However the bathrooms are deplorable. For a restaurant this size and this caliber, the restrooms should be in much better.“

“Clean, outdoor seating for pooches.“

“Never been in before, it's not bad, BUT...
This is the size of a large, that's a $2 cup of mac salad, and the bottled coke cost like $4.50. Like times are tuff, I get it but maybe a visual representation.
The staff are sooooper friendly, the cook is cool, and my Pulled Pork is savory and delicious. The mac was pretty meh but yeah, just my opinion.
I'll definitely come back sometime and try out some other stuff, the burgers do look tasty“

“The food is excellent especially the prime rib on Fri or Sat nights and the waitresses are super good!!!“

“Waffle bites is a nice, friendly place to grab a bite. I have been for lunch, but breakfast is my favorite. Their food is good and great portion sizes. I have even had their food delivered and their packaging is done well, compared to other places I've ordered from. I especially like the meat lovers omlette, I get it with hangover hashbrowns and side of pancakes. Its so much food.“

“Always hot food and always delicious! Friendly staff and fast service!“

“The staff here was fantastic. So kind and inviting to locals, and strangers alike. Dara, was great!! and Dre is NOT a close 2nd!! They were equally awesome servers. I watched the way they were attentive to a local, and it made me feel comforted. Coming from a complete and total stranger to this place, management and staff has this place dialed in. Hope all experience the same. I'll be back for sure.“

“I ordered the buffalo boneless wings . Originally i was super irritated because, the man who took my order said it was about 8/9 wings and for $16 that's crazy . I actually got like 21 boneless wings and a few of them were huge , tasted great and two cups of ranch . it's blocked off in a more private seating area so people out on the casino floor aren't looking in at you eating which is great . Definitely will be going here just for wings“

“Great atmosphere for families and good variety of food and drink for everyone“

“Sun set was nice with wine .“

“Good food, good service, good prices. And they're always very easy-going and accommodating when my brother and I bring our service dogs with us. We love their $25/30/35 meal deal thingy where we can get an appetizer and two entrees for $25-35. We can always afford dessert because of this deal! ?“

“My mother and I stopped here for breakfast on our drive back to Oceanside. Great food. Good service. Waitress was a blessing. Seeing my mother struggle she let us out an emergency door close to where we parked our car. My mom tells everyone how kind that was.“
