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

“We had all sorts of pizza from them and they were all delicious 😋 the whole extended family and family couldn’t resist. They are 100% better than the dominoes. There wasn’t a piece left out of 6 pizzas. And they also put them in a thermal bag to keep them hot till I got back to wallangarra. Great food 👍🏻👍🏻“

“Love their fries and chicken sandwich and mushroom burgers on Thursday… and Mistine is the best!“

“great food great service“

“My husband and I have loved every single meal we have had at Paradisio's! As far as we are concerned , they are the best restaurant in Redding! It is a great place for a romantic date night or any other night. The food is stellar so is Chef Mike and Amber“

“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.“

“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 👏 😀.“

“Service was excellent and staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. I appreciated that they had a choice between regular coffee and dark roast. The biscuit was ah-mazing; served fluffy and hot! It was excellent. I got the country potatoes with onions and bell peppers and they were cooked perfectly. The eggs were cooked to my liking, as well. Unfortunately, the only thing that was lacking was the chicken fried steak: it was tough and gamey-tasting, and the gravy didn't have any flavor at all. Otherwise, this place is wonderful. We do plan to go back and try something different on the menu, since everything else was top shelf.“

“Second time visiting Jeff's California Cattle Co. Great food and service both times. Love the atmosphere as well! The model train circles overhead. Walls display large photos of old Redding. The Big Stack is more like the gigantic stack. Wow! Delicious!“

“A delicious hot burger and fries at 10 am perfect! Was great food and friendly folks.
Edit. Went here again and hour before closing same delicious big dude burger large fries and large shake chocolate hazelnut this time. I Am visiting from out of town and walked here 45 min for their awesome food.“

“Reserved the library for a group for birthday lunch. They have a limited menu but what everyone ordered was really good. - sandwiches, salads, quesadillas, breakfast eggs. The service was great and the atmosphere made the birthday girl special.“

“Saw a FB ad for this restaurant. Had never heard of it. Looked good so ordered online and my husband picked up on his way home. Oh wow so yummy!!!! A little spendy but definitely feel I ate health tonight. Hubby enjoyed his too👍“

“Clean, outdoor seating for pooches.“

“I love Fast Weenies! The staff is always happy and pleasant. The potato salad is excellent!“

“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.“

“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“

“Damburger is one of the best places in Redding CA to get a burger, shake and fries. I personally have been going there on and off for over thirty year's. Always had the best experience with employees and owners. Everyone at Damburger has always been an absolute delight and extremely helpful.“

“They have the best Cobb salad in Redding. Great selection of beers. Outdoor seating is perfect on a nice day. Free parking is in front or in the nearby parking lot.“

“fantastic!! We have dined there on several occasions and never been disappointed! So, when we needed to schedule a party for our friend who was going to celebrate her 100th birthday, we chose Huffs....not knowing what to expect. We'll, we were totally blown away by the magnificent buffet presentation they created!!! And, the food? We had over 60 people there and had compliment after compliment on the food!! Delicious!!! Personally they handled EVERYONE like we were All precious cargo. Amazing!!! Would we do it agai? YES! Would we recommend Huff's ....YOU BET!! FANTABULOUS AND DELICIOUS!“

“Excelente lugar para comer se los recomiendo“

“We enjoyed dinner here. We got a Blackberry Sage Kentucky Mule, hot honey brussel sprouts, salmon pesto risotto, and Thai chicken salad. Thai chicken salad was excellent. We noted undercooked vegetables - sprouts and broccolini (in pesto dish) and a smaller-than-norm mule glass. This contributed to the 4/5 rating.“

“i cant say enough good things about this spot, the food has been awesome every time i have dined there. Everyone is super polite and helpful, the atmosphere is very relaxed and rugged. A great family spot and you wont find a better burger.“

“We stopped in today and had the Whiskey Burger and the Black Bean Umami with a basket of fries to share. Everything was absolutely delicious. Great options for both herbivores and carnivores. Proud to have great food like this in our downtown community.“

“We LOVE Corbett’s. One of the best restaurants in the area. Amazing food and service*. Try the lobster eggs benedict, any of their kickass omelets (my partner likes the salmon omelet, I like the Downtown or California), any of their fantastic sandwiches. I’m not a coffee snob in any capacity so YMMV, but their regular coffee is REALLY good. Desserts are also fantastic.

* Regarding service. Normally Maria is our server, extremely kind and personable, has gotten to know us & our preferences well and takes great care of us. She is a standout human being. Unfortunately, we must have stopped in on her day off today and got Allison. She was… certainly not outright rude but made us and others feel like an inconvenience. Maybe not having a good day. Happens.

As soon as we sat down, something to the effect of “wow, as soon as I start a project I have more people come in” was said. Sure, same, I also work in the service industry and I know the feeling, but it’s not something I voice to patrons. She made various other kinda not great comments throughout our visit, both to us and another table.

Allison still kept us taken care of consistently and quickly, and kept our drinks full. But we definitely missed Maria today.“

“I had made reservations for Sept 16 for 10 people. I don't think I wrote a thank you for the wonderful food and great service. Everyone raved about their food choice. As new owners you are doing a great job. Thank you again.“

“Beautiful day on a beautiful course! Very nice staff and professional!!“

“Love from the Hearth, College view is my go to. Friendly people, great food. However, wifi over the last weeks has been non existant. Nobody can connect. I'm now finding myself new places to hang out. Wish they would sort that.“

“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!“

“My daughter and I came over to Redding from Eureka and this place was recommended to us for lunch. I had the salmon salad. This was the best salad I’ve ever had! So delicious. Haylee took such great care of us. She was so warm and friendly! I loved everything about this place, the atmosphere, food, and friendly service. We will definitely come back.“

“Love the tasty Fusion dishes!!!“

“My friend Danny would not shut up about this place, I had to come check it out for myself. Great people over here, chef Dennis really knows how to make a burger. Found a stash of hidden booze behind the toilet as a bonus! Fantastic people and great food, would recommend for anyone visiting in the area.“

“My mother and I had such a pleasant time sitting outside today. Our waitress was Allie and she was absolutely the sweetest and most efficient waitress ever... (always checking on us with a smile). We enjoyed the beer-battered onion rings... they were huge! Logan's Roadhouse... highly recommend!“

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

“I wanted to thank owners/management for minimizing restaurant eat-in/take-out packaging and utilizing reusable, recyclable and compostable materials (bamboo skewers; paper liners on reusable trays; paper cups; paper take-home boxes. It is greatly appreciated by myself and the environment! Also, your menu is reasonably priced and delicious!“

“great food great prices awsome staff“

“This Denny's always makes me feel at home. It's a feeling of nostalgia. The servers always show up for their customers, providing excellent service. Joyce (and the others) were grand-slammed with customers, but they never failed to check in and fill my coffee cup. Thank you for treating us so well! Have a beautiful day, Joyce!“

“We love this Applebee's. Their chicken tacos and french onion soup is a great lunch.
We had Angie as our waitress and we love her. Always on top of things. She's great.

Applebee's just joined with IHop so you can get breakfast all day long.“
