I just moved to redding I'm a bartender south of here, Upon coming into the bar I thought it looked cool. They have pool tables and a stage good sound system, the place is handicap friendly which is nice since one of us is wheelchair bound. We found a table and sat down. I Waited to go order our non alcoholic beverages for about 10 mins, none of us were ID, until after I ordered a juice, pitcher of root beer, and 2 waters when I ordered the water a customer said you know what to do spray her... Steve grabbed the tap and I said DO NOT SPRAY ME. HE then said don't tell me what to do and acted as if he would spray me, he then told me he could not serve me and my friends a pitcher of soda because later tonight he will be busy and need it. It's 845 and not busy, so After STEVE ran my card he choose to id one of my friends and myself. But not my other 2 friends who are younger then myself. As I stood at the bar waiting for my already poured drinks just sitting there behind the bar steve went to make other people's drinks i watched him pour 2 beers and make 2 mixed drinks before I said excuse me I said it again before reaching behind the bar and grabbing the 2 waters and cup of soda I then said excuse me a couple more times loudly and he said I will be right with you. I said can I please get my juice with grenadine. He then rudely gave me my juice. I have never been to a bar for the first time and had such a rude person as a bartender (I'm a recovering alcoholic so I've been to plenty) I feel completely discriminated against. I feel like because we have someone who is handicap and we are not drinking alcohol. (We came for karaoke) we are being discriminated against and being mistreated. This really just ruined my night and made me sad there are so many rude, hateful people.

One of the best places in Chico to grab a drink and avoid the college crowd. I know, I know, its a…read morecollege town, don't gripe about the college kids... but holy hell its nice to hang out with the grown ups sometimes! A couple of tips for the newbie adult headed to this VIP lounge: 1) Make sure to get your booty up there prior to 9pm (after 9pm there is a $10 cover charge) 2) $10 isn't going to break the bank, I get it however, it IS a key bit of info so take it for what its worth. (Its worth ten bucks, ha!) Make sure that if you should arrive before 9, like for happy hour, and stay after 9, that your given a wrist band so you can wander from floor to floor without having to pay the entry fee 3) If you get there prior to 9pm and have a person or people you actually want to speak (and not yell at) the music is at a normal level so carrying a conversation is tres easy. Beware, after 9pm they PUMP up the volume so be prepared to yell your conversation after that time frame kicks in 4) And speaking of 'tres' this bar is tres chic, there is a ton of cozy seating, you can go find a booth which is semi private or go more public and choose a table out in the open (along with more cozy seats) 5) They have an 'L' shaped pool table, very weird but very cool and ultra different. I've never seen one quite like it anywhere else 6) The martini selection is pretty tasty (see my pix) and the prices are right up my alley (marginally priced and well worth it) 7) The absolute BEST part of my experience here at the VIP Ultra Lounge was Stephanie. The adorable, extra friendly bartender/waitress, literally, the best little thing located upstairs. Her personality ROCKED. She gave me mini tour and being that it was my first time here, while she toured, she explained all the bars (total of 4), their highlights and best times to have fun at each of them. Seriously treated me in TOTAL VIP fashion, what a gem!! The cool thing about this bar is that its connected to 3 other totally different (un-VIP, just made up that word) bars. So... if you get tired of being a snobby VIP, you can take your wasty face downstairs and kick it with the college kids. Good thing #8... if your walking sideways and acting like a drunk monkey, you'll blend right in :) Dance, scratch your butt, do a shot then fall on the floor, hey! Have a good time!

Oh I'm a sucker for a place that serves good drinks and doesn't smell like puke. Come on Chico…read more.. you know the places I'm talking about. Once you are past the cheapest drinks you can buy phase of Chico life, come up to VIP Ultra Lounge. Check 'em out during happy hour to scout if you like it without paying a cover. I enjoyed my melon mojito- with none of the stickiness or smell associated with most the venues in Chico. I get that Chico isn't used to paying much of a cover charge at all, but I'd rather pay a cover and go somewhere gorgeous, comfortable & clean. I used to love the Bear & LaSalles, but you go there after a few drinks because otherwise you'd never get past the smell and in the door. You can smell them from outside. Yuck. Other than harping on the fantasticness of a clean place- my husband has enjoyed his drinks there as well, we've had tacos and a steak/gorganzola pizza during happy hour- all good stuff. And that explains why I'm headed there in 40 minutes to celebrate the end of my work week!

I have no idea what's up with the low rated reviews here! My service was just fine, I waited 9…read moreminutes for my breakfast omelet to come out. Yeah, I timed it cause of all the shaky reviews, I was prepared for the worst, but it didn't happen! I think there's reviewers that seem to only post when they have something to complain about. And, yes, you can get a free breakfast if you're staying here ta the Holiday Inn, you just have to ask nice and smile when you do! I got 2 free breakfasts here. You get anything on the menu and a drink. So I wander in around 7am, they open for breakfast at 6am till 11 am. There's hardly any customers, tho I was greeted right away and told to sit anywhere. I showed my voucher and was told order anything on the breakfast menu and a drink. Well, since free coffee is right there in the lobby 24/7, I got orange juice. I ordered the Omelet that came with hashbrowns and toast. You get a choice of fillings and cheese plus choice of potato. 9 minutes later my food arrived. I wish I hadn't forgot my damn camera, this is a good lookin breakfast. The omelet was plenty generous and the big serving of perfectly cooked hashbrowns was spectacular, I kid you not, these were some of the best hashbrowns I've had. It takes skill to do there right, crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside, like a french fry done right! Toast was served buttered and hot ... I just hate cold toast! The voucher was processed no prob ... do leave a tip tho! I'll be back tomorrow for breakfast again!

Stayed at the Holiday Inn in Redding, CA for work. This restaurant is connected to the hotel. They…read moreservice breakfast and dinner and have a full bar. I've had their breakfast, all American and continental, pretty quick service. There's happy hour in the early afternoon and some snacks but if there's tons of people then dinner can get busy. Probably easier to go up to the bar to order than table service. I ordered the salad with steak medium rare, it was really good and a large amount. The steak was good, people were satisfied with their meals and it was easy especially if you were staying at this hotel. The restaurant was a little rustic but huge area that is good for a large group to work and they have power outlets. There's public parking and lots of space.

Had the chance to revisit Crush recently while passing through Chico. It really held up. We made a…read morereservation so we could be sure to get in this time. We were promptly seated, and given a great spot near the wall-sized indoor fountain which was nice. We started with cocktails and appetizers, and they all came out quickly. We started with bread, which was excellent. We moved on to the grilled artichokes, which were also pretty special. The jalapeno aioli added to the smokiness of the grilled artichokes. We loved them. The bib salad was also a treat - nice chop, and the lardons were perfectly cooked little flavor bombs that stood up nicely to the blue cheese. We had the lobseter ravioli, and the single-layer crispy lasagne for our meals. The lobster ravioli was delicious, and the freshly made sundried tomatoes added a little extra structure to balance the plate. The single layer lasagne was really interesting. Wasn't sure what to expect, and the server said it was a little controversial, so I tried it. It came out as a large sheet - fresh spinach pasta sheets, layered with a delicious bolognese sauce, and topped with pesto and bechamel. Unconventional? Yes. Delicious? YES! I'm so glad I was feeling experimental - it was an innovative dish. Overall, we loved it. Service was very solid - attentive, without being intrusive. Perfect evening! Previous review: Dropped in here just to check it out. We came early on Thursday, and it was jumping! Got a seat at the Kitchen bar to have a few apps, and a cocktail, and had a fantastic snack and talked with some great folks in the kitchen. Pizza is fantastic wood -oven style, and the service was great. Wish I had photos - but I'll save those for the next time i visit and do a more thorough tour of the menu.

We were really looking forward to visiting this restaurant. The space is beautiful, and the menu…read morelooked very appealing, but unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The restaurant was a little difficult to find, as there was no obvious signage on the door. We arrived around 4 PM on a Thursday and sat at the bar. Unfortunately, we waited about 10 minutes before the bartender acknowledged us. After ordering our drinks, we felt somewhat uncomfortable with the interaction. The service came across as unwelcoming, and we didn't feel particularly valued as customers. We were there during happy hour, when well drinks were advertised at $10. However, when we received our bill, the whiskey sour was charged $6 more than expected, along with an additional 3% service fee. We were also paying cash. Additionally, the wine glass had a chip along the rim, which was concerning. We ended up having our drinks and asking for the check rather than staying longer. It's unfortunate because the restaurant itself is lovely, and the menu looks wonderful. I rarely leave negative reviews, but I felt this experience was worth sharing. I hope the owner takes this feedback constructively, as a few people we spoke with had similar experiences. With a little more attention to service, hospitality, and the details, this could be a much more enjoyable place to visit.

Visited June 28 2026. See my receipt as always…read more First time here at Unwined. I chose this place because I have a puppy and their outdoor shaded area is dog friendly. It's very nice inside with sleek decor. Patio is nice size as well. Full bar and wood burning pizza oven. We came here for breakfast ( scrambled eggs..bacon..toast) but they only serve that on the weekends. We pivoted and got the Waglu burger with garlic parm fries. The burger was juicy ( messy..extra napkins ) and the fries were nice and crunchy and delicious! Plenty of garlic! I ordered a buttery chardonnay and he got a Farmer's Brewing beer. Very good with the food that we shared! The waiter BRADEN was wonderful and very attentive! Great personality ! The only thing I was surprised about was the 2 dollar charge for alittle ranch dressing and 5 dollars to split the plate. Never ate the dressing and never asked to "split" the plate.

All I added were centerpieces and runners to elevate the look. The servers were very attentive to the guests. The guests were served their salad and dessert, with the main course managed as buffet style complete with a roasted New York steak carving station. All the guests enjoyed their meals. The owner Frank was a pleasure to work with and very accommodating. I highly recommend Unwined for events in their private room. I would imagine their restaurant is great too, but have not tried for lunch/dinner.
