“We had the steak tartar starter...excellent flavor, then the filet with slipper lobster cooked perfectly with great flavor. The creme brulet was excellent as always. The server is alway on time with everything and very helpful.”
“We came here for our 18th anniversary. We called ahead and got reservations. When we arrived we were seated promptly. The staff was very nice and the pasta was perfect. I got the chicken pesto special and my husband got the shrimp scampi. After looking at the pictures online I was a little concerned about the portion sizes, they are much larger than they appear in the photos. I was very pleased and had some to bring home as well.”
“By far the friendliest bar! This bar has something for everyone. Karaoke, live music, great wines, beers and drinks and yummy bar food! I recommend the garlic parmesean wings! The outdoor patio is great and it's in an awesome location! The owners are pretty rad too!”
“You must try the Monte Cristo sandwich if you like sweet and savory. It was one of the best I have had. The prices are reasonable. Better than Sweeties all around we all thought. They also have a full bar! The atmosphere is really cute, comforting, and has a vibe that takes you back. We recommend this diner and we will be returning.”
“If you're looking for excellent sushi this is the best place in town. Not only is the food great but the service is wonderful too, and all the sushi is made by the owner who enjoys chatting with all of his customer's!”

Restaurants with Delivery
“Wow!!!!!!! I can still taste the chicken pesto crepe. Oh my dear, Yahweh- was that the most delicious ckn. Pesto I've ever had in my life??YES. The owner is a sweet and very busy lady and she definitely knows what great customer service should look like. Amazing! The guys in the kitchen- well, it wouldn't be what an amazing place it is, without you all cooking back there and serving too! Yes it was super busy and a bit of a wait- BUT soooooooo well worth it!!! A bit pricy but that's because (and my daughter can appreciate this more) it's Organic and we all know how expensive organics can cost business owners and consumers alike. Well, amazing crepes and matcha lavender drink and amazing customer service. Be patient and this place will NOT disappoint you. Thank you! And thank you for the military discount. And I love the wall decor about God. Outstanding job!!”
“This quaint, under the radar gem offers a wealth of flavor and variety. I had the huevos rancheros which were outstanding! Fresh salsa verde, avocados, and chorizo tasted incredible. Top that with perfectly cooked eggs made for a great breakfast.My daughter tried the sweet cream pancakes and the panko french toast. She loved both of them. The french toast was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, again the flavor was great. The pancakes were large and flavorful. They squeeze their own orange juice and it too tasted superb.The service was quick and friendly, always offering a coffee refill or if we needed anything. I will return and recommend Trendy’s.”
“A super cute hole in the wall place with yummy food and good service. I got the veggie omelette and the country potatoes. The omelette was packed full of veggies and was perfectly seasoned. The potatoes were delightfully crispy but I do wish they had a smidge more seasoning. My friend said she had the best Reuben she's had in a very, very long time! Planning on going back for sure!Vegetarian options: I only remember seeing 2-4 vegetarian options on the menu, of which the omelette seemed to be the most filling and with the most veggies”
“I love the atmosphere and the hygiene, it's like it gets cleaned every single hour. I love the Oreo boba tea, it's my favorite.Wheelchair accessibility: It is easy to move around for disabled people.”
“Love the vibe and the kindness of the owner. Bought tons of merch and got a free sticker. Coffee is delicious. Ordered a seasonal latte and cortado and loved the atmosphere. Hung out for hours!”
“Ice cream is yummy! Lemon speculos, out of this world. The waffle cones are tasty-the only ones I have ever liked. Every time we go to Redding this is a must. We like the one in downtown better than the one by the mall.”
“This food truck is worth stopping at, don't miss out! Delicious food, fast & friendly service. My favorite stop for chicken Tikka masala with a side of rice and garlic naan?. My second favorite dish here is the briyani.If you're passing through town be sure to put this one on your list of "must try" stops, you won't be disappointed. ?”

“What a cool place to grab a beer or glass of wine. A chill atmosphere that wasn’t pretentious. Did not try the charcuterie board but if I can make my own I’ll try next time. Good selection of beer on tap and wonderful bar tender. Will most certainly be back. Highly recommend trying this establishment.”
Outdoor Dining
“They’re moving! (See business card for new location).Excellent homemade tortillas with the tacos and plates. The breakfast burritos, bean cheese burrito and huevos ranchero (homemade tortilla) were all ”
“Fun decor, delicious sandwiches, and great service! We ordered a bowl of chili, the Poor Boy, Club Sandwich, The Californian, and The Florentine and enjoyed all of them. Brought our dog and the owner even gave us a water bowl. Would highly recommend if stopping by!Vegetarian options: They have 6 vegetarian options - 4 sandwiches and 2 salads (most of which include avocado so they’re pretty filling). I had the Florentine and it was amazing.”
“Love the simplicity of this place. They have burgers, fries, shakes, and drinks, all done really well. The star is the smash burgers the create. Knowing their craft and not changing, the thin patties with wonderfully crisp and tasty edges highlight the meal. Accompany the burger with shoestring fries that were hot, crispy, and salted perfectly made a supremely satisfying meal. If you have room, and I did, top off the meal with one of their shakes. They are more than willing to customize your shake flavor. My go to is a pineapple-orange creamsicle shake. Service was fast and friendly. Will return and recommend it to anyone.”
“Delightful mom and pop restaurant. Quiet, atmospheric with quick service and small two person tables. The food is amazing with homemade chips and salsa and fresh sides with every dish. 10/10 recommend. But if you’re a gringo ask them to add a little spice to an otherwise delicious meal.”
“Enjoyed my stop here. Hamburger was good, but I always think the fries need to be cooked again. Was busy when I was here. My name was called very well. What I mean is they had a guy that could call names and you heard, I repeat, heard him call your name for your order. Food came faster than I expected, especially being busy.”
“We came here for our 18th anniversary. We called ahead and got reservations. When we arrived we were seated promptly. The staff was very nice and the pasta was perfect.

“This is a nice little place with a great reputation. Winter for the first time yesterday and tried the beef Pho, and it was great but it came with good service and other people in my party were loving what they ordered.”
“If you're looking for excellent sushi this is the best place in town. Not only is the food great but the service is wonderful too, and all the sushi is made by the owner who enjoys chatting with all of his customer's!”
“This ice cream was so delicious. The vibe was calm and the worker there was sweet! They had little games you could also play and coffee. I will be stopping here anytime I go to Redding.”
“Mmmmm tasty coffee. It can take a bit for the artisans to craft your brew, but you don't mind in this space. I like to sit on the second level overlooking the counter so I can look around and won't miss when it's ready. Two words - coffee date!”

So fridays our day.If you haven't been here stop by and check it out...✌️”

The potato skins, pork ribs, and lamb lollipops- all amazing - and a few of the 22 oz beers. Sam was my sever and was amazing - fast, fun, helpful, and made my dining experience wonderful. Food was excellent as was my overall experiences will definitely swing by again!”

“Surprisingly amazing experience. Was in town for 2 days from Texas and stopped here for a quick meal. We felt our server was genuinely interested in delivering a great experience and it was refreshing to see. Food was incredibly good as well. Top notch all around.”
“Man if they got rid of the god forsaken door chime in the gas station it'd be nails. The foods bomb, the crew is cool. Gas station door dinger kills it for being a good spot to chill and have lunch.”
“I've been in Redding since 1972, have tried just about every eatery in town. This place NEVER lets you down! The food, the service, the atmosphere is all top notch! Keeps me coming back & you should too!”
“This has been my favorite restaurant for decades. Even during the pandemic, they managed to offer meals via a safe window they created in the doorway and the quality did not suffer. Their prawns and vegetable combination is my go-to for a perfect meal, but everything I've had is always wonderful.”
“The food is absolutely DELICIOUS and AMAZING! The best in town!! Service is warm, kind and friendly.Parking: It is a tiny place. We have always been able to park, but it could be hard when place is extra busy.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. Easy. One level. Eating inside or out in covered enclosed patio!”
“Whenever the occasion arises to contribute to a potluck with my church community, I've consistently chosen Fat Daddy's BBQ for pickup, and it has never disappointed. Time and again, their ribs have become the centerpiece of the meal, stealing the spotlight with their succulent, fall-off-the-bone tenderness, and perfectly balanced smoky flavor. The consistent quality and rave reviews from my friends are a testament to the exceptional culinary craftsmanship Fat Daddy's BBQ offers. Their menu showcases not only the mastery of barbecue but also a passion for creating memorable dining experiences, even off-site. For anyone in search of top-tier barbecue that promises to impress at any gathering, I wholeheartedly recommend Fat Daddy's BBQ. Their commitment to quality and flavor is evident in every bite, ensuring that your dish will be a conversation starter and a hit among any crowd.”
“We’ve been to Huff’s a few times. It is a lovely restaurant overlooking Shasta Lake. Great for a romantic evening.The atmosphere is lively upstairs in the bar and chill downstairs. The food is great! Omg, the Pig Wings are fantastic! I had the Surf and Turf. The bacon wrapped filet was perfection! It was presented with the biggest butterflied prawn I’ve ever seen. Our server, Hailey was awesome. Very warm and friendly. Great at setting expectations, and providing options. She went out of her way to make sure we were happy.The mashed root vegetables were a bit bland but, still nice. I would love if the restaurant served warm bread.We met Cameron, the manager. He was so kind and friendly! Overall a great experience. So nice having a special restaurant like this available.”
“My daughter and I love this place ! Always great service and wonderful tasty food very nice portions. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends and family!Parking: Plenty of parking and handicapped parking is good.”
“I've been here before and our waitress was super mean and did not return after a couple of years. When I returned because a family member wanted to try it, I was helped by a very nice hispanic hostess but the mean waitress still helped us. Decided to give it a 3rd try and our waitress Allison was super nice and friendly. Her service was excellent?definitely recommend! 10/10 ordered too much food but taking the rest to go since it was all yummy ?”
“About 30 of us had lunch there yesterday and the waitress handled it beautifully. The food was well-prepared and delicious. I had the prawns with vegetables from the lunch menu. The veg were crisp and perfect, the prawns heavenly.”
“Good smells hit my nose the moment I walked into the building, which made my stomach excited for what was to come! We chose this place based on the menu, specifically the French onion soup, which was as delicious as it looks in the picture someone uploaded! I generally prefer more well-lit areas when eating but our server, Jake, really brightens up the place with his energy and fun personality. I appreciate his sense of humor and his knowledgeability regarding the menu and our options. We will definitely eat here again, next time we're in the area.”
“Ok on our road trip to Oregon stopped in Shasta to see the Caverns. I really didn’t want pizza again with the kids. So we rolled the dice and Tried Chinese. One word YAYZEE. Orange chicken BEST EVER!Super crispy light breading with juicy chicken. Sauce was sweet and spicy at the same time perfectly balanced. We also had the Wanton Noodle and chicken corn egg drop soup top notch. Along with the chicken fried Rice and Combination Hong Kong crispy noodles we had enough to take home and have for Lunch next day. All for $60 ok shut the front door! Better yet throw it open and get over to this place you will not be sorry!”
“Just went in for a good pressed juice. Service was a tad slow....since the guests in front of me were very "needy". But the nature of fresh juice requires that. Customer service was flawless when I got to order. Great experience. Juice was great too.”
“What great food! First time trying this place. We tried the Meatball Sandwich and the Chicken Cesar. They were great! We will definitely be ordering from here again.”
“It was delicious. My mother brought me for dinner to have something nice before today's back surgery (long longed for). It has been a long time since I was able to eat so heartily. Sitting at the grill and watching it prepared was a treat. I appreciated the help given to my mom in finding what she was wanting despite not knowing what it was called. Thank you. We will bring the rest of yhe family next time.Kid-friendliness: There is a kid menu but the chefs engage the kids and make it a special meal. Watching them brought back memories of long ago with my little brother.Wheelchair accessibility: I use a walker chair combo. We were very speedily seated in an accessible area and I was given the help I needed.”

“Carl's Jr has burgers that at least taste like hamburgers, with sliced onions, tomatoes and whole pieces of lettuce just like you would do at your own backyard BBQ or in your kitchen lol ....all burgers from McDonalds taste like, well McDonalds, not a real hamburger( for real, tell me does a Big Mac taste like a hamburger? I'd say not, it tastes like a Big Mac, (McDonalds sandwich lol) nothing like a burger that anyone would make at home or at a BBQ, at least not anyone I know.Carl's Jr's Santa fe sauce adds a nice lil sump'm sump'm, if your palate agrees that is. Either added and have it put on your burger, or as a side (which i prefer - added or not on any given bite, with just a lil dip, I usually eat some with and some without, but sometimes on every bite, having the option is a better way to go in my opinion.Onion rings with a side of Santa fe is my favorite play lol then it can be on double duty, if you will.Parking: Parking - has no issuesKid-friendliness: Just your normal fast food burger place...there isn't a play area. just a large indoor seating area.Wheelchair accessibility: It has all thats needed/required for the ease of wheelchair customers. No problems there”
“Love this place ❤️ super nice and clean and staff was more than helpful.fpod was amazing nice and hot and freshly made.Kid-friendliness: You can bring kids no problem.”
“Super quick compared to the usual 15 minute wait at other locations. Might have been a 5 to 7 minutes wait; for Jack that's quick. I love the Jumbo Jack with Cheese no Onion. By far my favorite burger. When they have someone that understands tacos the tacos are amazing! I'm also a fan of the egg roll. I wish I owned my own Jack in the Box.”
“I've never sat at a fast food window and thought '"God that smells amazing". The smell of the food coming through the window was so enticing. I got the Polish Torpedo and Mom's Potato Salad. The Polish Torpedo was awesome. The potato salad is really good too, could use more olives and pickles, but that's just my personal taste. I can see going here more often”
“The Grape Escape Redding California, if you live here and haven't tried it or if you are passing through please try to stop and try it! Amazing atmosphere, amazing people, delicious food amazing wine just an all-round great experience and let me tell you if you don't like wine your mind will be changed once you visit The Grape Escape!!

“I don't go here often, but when I do I always love the dirty ginger shots or a nice juice blend. Recently tried the apple nachos and they were a delicious treat. The order ahead feature is great for when you're on the go.”
Takeout Restaurants
“There were four of us eating in the car we asked for boxes for each meal we all had the same meal instead of putting them in four boxes they brought us two boxes one with all the fries and another one with all the burgers. It doesn't work for four people that way they could listen a little better.”
“The bagels are delicious and such a great deal. The employees are so nice. The bagel sandwiches they make are seriously loaded with stuff and great quality for a low price.”
“Gem of a deli run by old ladies in what feels like their home kitchen. They were so welcoming and everything so genuine and heartfelt it felt like wandering off the farm into your aunt's house.”
“You must try the Monte Cristo sandwich if you like sweet and savory. It was one of the best I have had. The prices are reasonable. Better than Sweeties all around we all thought. They also have a full bar! The atmosphere is really cute, comforting, and has a vibe that takes you back. We recommend this diner and we will be returning.”

“One of the best restaurants in the area. The food is so good and comes in large portions.Wheelchair accessibility: This is located at the airport and has an elevator up to the restaurant.”
“Honestly, I don't think I have enjoyed eating out so much as I did at Sweeties, and this was my first time there. It was a toss up between the French toast and the chicken fried steak, I went for the chicken fried steak and I was very impressed with the taste to the point where everything else on my plate had to wait until I finished it. The people were very courteous, loved the friendly atmosphere. I have raved about this place to every one I see down here in Red Bluff. Next time I get a chance to head back up, I will be back.”
“Do yourself a favor, mix up your typical morning routine and give this place a try. Such a friendly staff and comfy place to enjoy a coffee to get your day going. I grabbed food on my way out to bring to the kids and everyone was happy with their breakfast. Thank you Downtown Grounds for everything we will absolutely be back!”
“Two guys and a grill catered my wedding. From the very beginning they were communicative and easy to work with. Their prices are incredibly reasonable and the process of setting up an event with them was easy, both of these attributes are very important when planning a wedding. On the wedding day they were on time and ready to go. The food was delicious, many of our guests never had Mediterranean food before and it was a very positive first experience. Many people complimented them and wanted to know where they can go to have their food outside of our wedding. I highly recommend and I will definitely be going to them if I need to book catering in the future.”
“The Lighthouse is an absolutely awesome place to take your family and friends!The food is always consistently good, the staff is friendly and kind, and the atmosphere is oceanic with neat wall murals.The prices are reasonable and affordable, and the serving sizes are large.I highly recommend the fish and chips as well as the zucchini !”
“We have bought cupcakes for several years. The standards are good but our Favorite is the May Special,SopapillaWe recently ordered a custom cake. The staff was friendly and it turned out Great!”
“Fantastic Saturday night at Fall River Brewing Co! The Billy's were awesome, and the food truck was incredibly good. Good Brews, good music, food and best friends can't go wrong!!”

“I've been in Redding since 1972, have tried just about every eatery in town. This place NEVER lets you down! The food, the service, the atmosphere is all top notch! Keeps me coming back & you should too!”
“This place is great and it used to be my favorite sushi place. However I've been hearing rumors that the original owner got caught child trafficking and did time, but now he's back and people have spotted him with an ankle monitor on. Suspicious and until these rumors are proven wrong, I will not be returning.”
“Truly a delish steak. The menu is simple, which was nice. Didn't care for the salad (had french dressing), as it was pretty sloppy with dressing and something about it just didn't taste "right". But since I wasn't there for the salad, no big fuss about that lol the steak on its own was memorable enough for me to return.Kid-friendliness: Didn't see any kids there. Had more of an old bar vibe. Nice for adults.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“These are the best pretzels, warm, fresh, dripping with butter and salt, drool!!! I go here every chance I get to town. Addicting and down right delicious. Very nice and welcoming customer service, good conversation. Order the three pack at least, trust me. I'd have a photo, but always forget to take one, until I get done shoveling dynamite food in my mouth, lick my salty fingers, and sigh in relief. That's when I go, oh yeah, picture...Kid-friendliness: It's a small drive through, but I tell you that my grandkids love these pretzels too. Just butter and salt.”
“This is the second time we've been to this cute, quiet,little place. The service, the coffee and the food were really good both times. Decent portions and prices also.Waaay more than just coffee! They have interesting breakfast items, and also lunch options. We've had the breakfast tacos, and the Thai rice bowl. So yummy ? and so many other things we want to try.”
“Amazing customer service from Josy and thank you Edwin for making the hot chocolate and sugar- free rebel for my daughter. We were just here a little while ago and sat outside. I really appreciate the quality of people that Dutch Bros has working here. And my daughter loves the fact that she can customize her drink-something that can't be done at human bean-although I do love their hot chocolate. But anyways thank you so much for being so kind and c.s. oriented. Very delicious hot c. And drinks. ❤️”
“I’d like to start if by saying I’ve been coming to this drive through for many years now, and everything is always quick and friendly, but what made me think to write this review is one of the workers in particular. I haven’t asked his name but he’s always in a hat, I swear I always come just to get a drink and he’ll sell me on something else because no coffee is complete without one of the pastry’s he says, I’m not sure if I’m just lucky but when I come through at night he always remembers our past conversation and really engages with me which is a nice change of pace from other drive-through’s anywho I rate 5 starts would recommend to everyone.”
“The crew here are superstars and deserve raises. The food is a little pricey yes, but it's delicious and worth it due to the stellar customer service. The coffee here is the best around town in my humble opinion. Wish I could call management to properly give kudos to the team.”
“Dudes is such a hidden gem - their prices are so cheap and yet they maintain great quality! Always so kind! We love visiting them and hope they stick around for a long time!”
“Just passing through on a roadtrip, but absolutely saving this little gem for future roadtrips if we come this way again! Unfortunately, I was too hungry to take photos, but we ordered the chimichurri tacos and the hot pulled pork sandwich with garlic fries and their seasonal pumpkin chai. We ordered the seasonal drink iced and with oat milk. I highly recommend everything we ordered. It was so tasty and a highly satisfying meal after a lot of driving. Planning on revisiting.Parking: Shared parking for the plaza”
“A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE!!I was visiting the area an friends told me about this gem. Mouth watering food. Everything! Superb atmosphere. You know what really separates this place from other great places? Their staff! From placing your order to hearing your name sing in the back as they pack your food to go, LOVED IT AND WILL BE BACK ❤️”
“I'm eating as I'm writing this. Such great food. There is a guy with longish brown hair working the front counter, and he has the best attitude. In a day where no one wants to work he is smiling, being really polite and has great customer service. There is also a young girl with him in the drive-thru, she took our order in the lobby and she did such a good job as well. I will return. The food was great but the employees made it better. GIVE THAT GUY A RAISE!!!Kid-friendliness: My kid loves the star nuggets.”
“These guys make the freshest and tastiest hot dogs and hamburgers around. You really got to try their breakfast special it's one of the best values I've ever had... With scrambled eggs, sausage patty, two biscuits and gravy, and a potato patty, with a coffee!”
“I went to the papa Murphys on lake Blvd and I ordered a pepperoni with pineapple and it had no pineapple and then i ordered a cowboy with no mushrooms because i am allergic to them and they put mushrooms on it worst service ever.”
“Even though we called 30 minutes before closing ,the night manager Wyatt was very professional and organized in the process of making our pizzas ??? Great customer service. Even laughed at my silly humour.. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Parking: Plenty of parking in the shopping center”

Their customer service is great and the managers are wonderful!Vegetarian options: You can customize your pizzaKid-friendliness: Every employee always acknowledges our 2 year old and adds so much joy to our visit. I like the window they have for people to see how their pizza is made, and I appreciate how it's always clean!”
“My order was taken at 6:50 AM. It is now 654 and I’m watching the gentleman at the drive-through window make himself a cuppa coffee And begin drinking It still has not collected payment from me Enter my messages at 6:55 AM. Mind you I was the only car in the drive-through and I only ordered biscuits and gravy.”
“Typical Carl's jr, but having cars pull around front to wait when no one's in the drive thru is annoying. Not to mention when they mix up the orders to the few waiting out front. Just unnecessary and adds more margin for error. Better off walking inside.”
“Pizza great, if slightly undercooked. Service awesome. Atmosphere is always noisy, but it's manageable. It was clean and well stocked.Parking: Not a very good parking lot. Limited spaces. Tight, hard to maneuver lot.”
“Had the pork fusion bowl with teriyaki dressing... yummy. This week is buy one get one free, too. We paid full price, saw the promo card at our table, asked about it and was cheerfully refunded!The only complaint was the noise! Teen girls... sigh...”
“Lovely Valentine's Day lunch. Beautiful sunny day so we could enjoy the view. Outstanding dishes - something for everyone. Food was a little slow coming, but waiter apologised and we didn't mind at all. Wish they were open in the evenings, but a great, fun mini-break to UBC and enjoying the campus for a walk afterwards.”

“Fresh, fast, and filling food. I had the carnitas, and boy, was it yummy. Well seasoned and just the right amount of crispness. Also, this was a nice and clean place to enjoy your meal.”
“My husband and I decided to take a trip to Burney Falls and wanted a place to sit in and have lunch. We found this place on Yelp. Once we entered, Angela (I believe was her name) told us the kitchen wouldn't be serving dinner until 4:30pm and that we were more than welcome to grab a drink at the bar in the mean time. 10 minutes before dinner time she asked us what we would like so she can put the order in and have it ready by then. She was very welcoming and easy to speak to. She provided great hospitality for our first time at the restaurant. She definitely made our experience great. We tried the soup of the day and it was chicken noodle soup. I was convinced that it was from a can, boy was I wrong. The celery still had a crunch to it and was fresh! Then I ordered the cut of the day medium rare and it was seasoned well and was perfect. My husband and I didn't expect much but we were extremely satisfied and ordered food to go. We would definitely come here again.”
“This place is hands down the best taco truck you will get food at! Not only is the food amazing but so if the customer service. This place deserves 10 stars! Not only can you get your daily taco craving but they offer catering. We used them for my husband's dads celebration of life and I had everyone ask where we got the food! You won't be disappointed!”
“Fall River had a very good selection of local brews. There was something any beer lover would like form IPAs to ales. If you like beer there’s something for you. In addition to a beer tasty menu the vibe was laid back and not loud. It is even pet friendly. I would recommend Fall River and will return next time I’m in town. Their IPA selection was vast with many that had great fruity flavor and not overly hoppy.”
“This place is nothing short but amazing, their food portions are incredible the seasoning is on point overall its very authentic food, the guys that run the truck are friendly as well. Id recommend. I try to stop by as much as I can I don’t get tired of their delicious food!!”
“The late hours of business are a huge plus. The pizza was tasty, but a bit trendy for my taste. The ice cream was just, well, weird. There were no standard flavors and the chocolate ganache flavor I had was just... different, and not necessarily in a good way.”

I came in here hungry and left here full with a little left over. Highly recommend this place. From the service to the food and dessert you won’t be disappointed.”
“Lovely folks. I go there often for fresh noodles for my own dishes (so much cheaper than any grocer). Their restaurant food is good and feels fresher/healthier than most other restaurants in the area.”
“I ordered lunch for 4 totalling $50.00 and the chili I ordered has something hard and sharp in it. It caused me to choke and cough. Other than that the food was good. I couldn't figure out what was in my food and it hurt my throat. Wildas is one of my favorites.”
“Gotta love my Dutch!! Always a great experience at the one on Airport Road!! Come to think about it, I have never had a bad interaction with any of the Dutch Brothers in Redding. Bro-ristas are always very upbeat, friendly, and helpful. One of my favorite spots to go!”

“Coconut matcha was wonderful!The cinnamon roll was one of the best I've had in awhile. The cream cheese frosting was cream cheesy, and every bite of tve roll had cinnamon!”
“Shut your face about this place! Absolutely mind blowing. The food and drinks were insanely delicious. We had Texas Flank Steak salad, Khalua pulled pork sandwich, Peanut Butter Pipeline smoothie, and tried both types of lemonade, and we topped it off with the chocolate strawberry cheesecake. Take my money!Atmosphere was warm and inviting. And the cashier was so helpful and personable.”
“We love Westside Wines! Mackenzie demonstrates a heartfelt passion for wine, she continuously surprises and delights the customer with new varieties. The service is beyond fantastic and if you are fortunate enough to find yourself at Westside during cheesecake week, then the foodie fates are indeed smiling upon you!”
“We’ve been to Huff’s a few times. It is a lovely restaurant overlooking Shasta Lake. Great for a romantic evening.The atmosphere is lively upstairs in the bar and chill downstairs. The food is great! Omg, the Pig Wings are fantastic! I had the Surf and Turf. The bacon wrapped filet was perfection! It was presented with the biggest butterflied prawn I’ve ever seen. Our server, Hailey was awesome. Very warm and friendly. Great at setting expectations, and providing options. She went out of her way to make sure we were happy.The mashed root vegetables were a bit bland but, still nice. I would love if the restaurant served warm bread.We met Cameron, the manager. He was so kind and friendly! Overall a great experience. So nice having a special restaurant like this available.”

“I get a Baha Burrito every time, and they're so flipping good! Made right in front of you for a really good price. I especially love their corn salsa and pineapple salsa. Their horchata is also really good.”
“About 30 of us had lunch there yesterday and the waitress handled it beautifully. The food was well-prepared and delicious. I had the prawns with vegetables from the lunch menu. The veg were crisp and perfect, the prawns heavenly.”
“I thought the all-you-can-eat breakfast was a bit expensive, but you get good tasting food. Bring the tapas back please! Those were delicious! Service took a bit to get started, but once she picked up our table, she was very active checking on us!”
“It's all about the tacos, and the made in house sauce "not-so-rocket" hot sauce. Since they haven't named version 2, and if you ask for Rocket everyone feels obligated to explain. Things change and a primary ingredient is not available, so there is a reasonable substitute, so ask for it for these excellent tacos.”
“Incredible atmosphere taking you back to an earlier era of 50 through 60’s! Ryan is a drink specialist who makes the best drinks in Redding! Fun place to go!”
“Good selection, decent prices. Not our "fav" of doughnut places but good enough. Location is good and close to a Mexican Pastry shop so visited there also.”
“What a cool place to grab a beer or glass of wine. A chill atmosphere that wasn’t pretentious. Did not try the charcuterie board but if I can make my own I’ll try next time. Good selection of beer on tap and wonderful bar tender. Will most certainly be back. Highly recommend trying this establishment.”
“Such a pleasant surprise how great this place is. I’ve driven past it a number of times and never felt to go in, but today we gave it a try and will definitely be back. The food was great with so much variety and flavor (including a great salad bar which is hard to find in Redding). Service was friendly and attentive and the classic 50’s American diner vibe was really fun and unique! Go check it out!”
“Best sushi in Shasta County, for whatever that’s worth. Their lunch specials make this a place to put on your rotation with the Chinese joint down the street and eating at home. Yup, should be included in the best of Redding. The vibe is Sacramento cool (they awkward) but the sushi is fresh and spicy as you want it to be. Recommend the spicy gyoza. Will be going back this week.”

“Best Black Bear diner I've been to. our waitress was fun, friendly, prompt, and not hovering. We all got the big burger with a huckleberry shake. Delicious. $20.00 burgers because we got the double patty...the whole nine yards. Definitely recommend. It's better than Medford location, and Grant's Pass sucks.”
“A super cute hole in the wall place with yummy food and good service. I got the veggie omelette and the country potatoes. The omelette was packed full of veggies and was perfectly seasoned. The potatoes were delightfully crispy but I do wish they had a smidge more seasoning. My friend said she had the best Reuben she's had in a very, very long time! Planning on going back for sure!Vegetarian options: I only remember seeing 2-4 vegetarian options on the menu, of which the omelette seemed to be the most filling and with the most veggies”
“Very nice experience. Went there with a group of 3. I had the carpatio, stripe bass with risotto, berry cheesecake that was on special, and 2 craft cocktails, all were excellent. Attentive friendly service.”
“I love love love their hazelnut coffee! Good deals through the app. I find the ordering system good when it's not broken. This location lacks the charm of other locations. Love their sugar cookie. Pastries leave something to be desired, although the muffins and bagels are good.”
“An edit to me previous review is have an option for extra sauce on door dash! Other than that. Their pizza is still some of the best!Vegetarian options: They have a wide variety of pizzas that are vegetarian compliant! And they taste amazing! The pizza crust is the best!Dietary restrictions: Whether you're vegetarian, halal, or you just want a good pizza. They have it and they accommodate for it! Just about anyone can find a dish on their menu that works for them and is the most delicious!Parking: Lots of parking being in a strip mall!”
“There were four of us eating in the car we asked for boxes for each meal we all had the same meal instead of putting them in four boxes they brought us two boxes one with all the fries and another one with all the burgers. It doesn't work for four people that way they could listen a little better.”
“My first time eating here was 2 days ago (takeout), and we're back tonight for dinner (eating in). Delicious food! So far, we've tried the Beef Pho, Mongolian Beef plate, Por stickers, and Red Curry. So far all those dishes have tasted amazing! The customer service is excellent, super nice and friendly lady at the front and waiters. I love this place! Strongly recommend to anyone looking for good, home tasting Thai food!”
“Enjoyed my stop here. Hamburger was good, but I always think the fries need to be cooked again. Was busy when I was here. My name was called very well. What I mean is they had a guy that could call names and you heard, I repeat, heard him call your name for your order. Food came faster than I expected, especially being busy.”
“Just had an Easter meal there...The waitresses are always the best. The food is always delicious and does not disappoint. Plus there's always enough to take home! Thank you Lumberjacks for being open on holidays! ❤️”
“Our waitress Heidi I believe was her name, went above and beyond for us. We had a party of 10 and she was so patient and caring. Even if food had to be redone she was very apologetic and pleasant. Thank you very much for the great experience. 4-3-24”
“So here's the deal, if you like chicken then Chick-fil-A in Redding California is your destination! There's nothing more to say just do itParking: Located at the corner of hilltop and Dana Drive right next to the Mount Shasta Mall there is plenty of free parking and a convenient drive-thru. Don't delay get your Chick-fil-A! Jimmy just another Door Dasher.”
“Always good. And cookies are so big they either last for days or you can share. Sometimes the warm ones are a bit doughy. Especially if they are right out of the oven. But let them sit a bit and they finish up nicely. Hard to wait though sometimes.”
“My friend Elaine and I had the pleasure of dining here today. Our waitress Charlotte was a absolute sweetheart and of course the food was scrumptious. We are and will continue to be repeat customers.”

“Wow!!!!!!! I can still taste the chicken pesto crepe. Oh my dear, Yahweh- was that the most delicious ckn. Pesto I've ever had in my life??YES. The owner is a sweet and very busy lady and she definitely knows what great customer service should look like. Amazing! The guys in the kitchen- well, it wouldn't be what an amazing place it is, without you all cooking back there and serving too! Yes it was super busy and a bit of a wait- BUT soooooooo well worth it!!! A bit pricy but that's because (and my daughter can appreciate this more) it's Organic and we all know how expensive organics can cost business owners and consumers alike. Well, amazing crepes and matcha lavender drink and amazing customer service. Be patient and this place will NOT disappoint you. Thank you! And thank you for the military discount. And I love the wall decor about God. Outstanding job!!”

“I moved to Redding in 1995 from Norwalk Ca. One of the few things I miss from So Cal is fresh baked breads that this restaurant offers. Prior to Victoria's bakery, most people would have to settle for some stale breads and pastries shipping from another location. It's nice we finally have a locally owned ”
“Such a great little place! Clean and cute, wonderful beer selection, good prices, friendly staff, fun atmosphere, AND there’s a play area for little ones. Plus the food truck outside, The Sum of All Smoke, was absolutely delicious! It’s so nice to have a place where I can get out of the house for a beer and some adult conversation without having to worry about finding a babysitter. Will definitely be back soon!”
“Odell’s is definitely the best BBQ in the Redding area! They have excellent flavor profiles with their sandwiches, I would highly recommend. The Texas Ruben was brilliant and delicious, I hope they bring it back again! The folks behind the counter are lovely and they have a passion for what they’re doing! Often times it’s quite busy, but they’re quick to serve and you don’t have to wait long. You’re going to drive pretty far to find anything better than Odell’s.”
