What a fun spot. They welcome you like family as soon as you enter. Great sushi and Chinese options. I'm vegetarian and really enjoyed their egg rolls and tofu (bean curd) appetizers. Makes a big meal! Hubby and kiddo loaded up on sushi. This spot came recommended by a friend and I'll continue to recommend it as well. read more

The service was friendly and prompt. We enjoyed a sushi roll which tasted fresh and had a nice presentation. The chowmein and entree were also tasty and a fair price. read more

Horrible food!!! Look at this photo!!!what is it? Take a guess ! I don't know what it is but it's not Orange Chicken! That's what I ordered and this is what I got! Called and talked to three people who all said the order was right. Then manager gets on phone says he did the order himself ! And it's orange chicken. Not going to replace it! Fine I will fight back with a review ! Look at the photo , do you think it's orange chicken! Mind you this was for two little kids so do you think they would eat this? Go to Panda Express that's what I ended up doing, it's cheaper and better !! read more

I can't say enough, the food is amazing! I've been bringing my daughters here for the last 30 years! First place they ever tried sushi & fell in love instantly! The service always personable (owner always knows us, no matter how long it's been) & delightful! The location is also part of local history. It used to be an old school house!!! Ambiance is serene! read more

I cook Chinese food as a hobby and have a whole refrigerator full of ingredients for it. I've tried practically every Chinese restaurant in Redding, and nobody is beating chu's II. On East Street. It even violates my preference against getting two kinds of food in one restaurant. They have really good sushi. I think the best comparison test is sizzling rice soup, because everybody makes a pretty good hot and sour soup chu's2 winds because of the light but very flavorful broth. I've been there at least 20 times and never tried anything there that I didn't enjoy completely. read more

Got to go here the other night after hearing great things about it from some locals. We were promptly and friendly greeted and sat at a table by the window. The dining area is on the smaller side, but not uncomfortable. The menu had so many options it was hard to choose, but we wanted to try a little of everything so we settled on some sushi rolls, Kung Pao chicken, and House Chow Mein. Everything tasted great! My tempura roll was light and fresh and the Awesome roll lives up to its name! Yum!!! The chow mein could have used a little more flavor but it was still delicious. The service was impeccable! So friendly and polite, filled our water glasses often, and made us feel like appreciated guests! Definitely recommend :) read more

This place was close to our hotel so thought to check it out. Wish we had looked at the reviews first. Ordered a dish that was supposed to be chicken, beef and scallops. The only thing I could taste was the sauce which overwhelmed the soy protein pieces that are supposed to be meat. The scallops were real but again lost in the sauce. Husband's sushi = just ok. No wasabi or ginger included. Cute building, nice atmosphere but the food was truly disappointing. For $57 with tip, only drinking water, can't recommend this place. read more

We came to Chu's too on a roadtrip because I think we were craving sushi and soup after a long hike and it was nearby. Honestly, it's pretty good for where it is, like I wasn't expecting AMAZING chinese/japanese food but it exists! I will say, it's not that great but the servers are really cute and I have a soft spot in my heart for these style of family owned chinese restaurants in these areas because you know they're trying their best with what they've got. read more

Good quick service! Friendly atmosphere. Love the atmosphere. Great meal, such a homey place.

I've read that "the best Asian restaurant in Redding" oh man how that didn't make it. TLDR: hoped for a hole in a wall, ended up being a disaster. Do NOT recommend going They have a parking lot with a lot of spaces available. Upon entry into the restaurant. I was greeted by a lady behind the sushi counter. And was instructed to take a seat, which the entire restaurant except one table was open, on the way to my seat there is a huge pile of menus to select from and I grab the top menu in one of the stacks. That menu was dirty and sticky. When I sat down on the table, there's already laid out silverware and napkin, and on the table are various condiments. (Like soy sauce, vinegar, salt and pepper, etc.) and a wine menu. All of which were completely sticky and all have not been cleaned. Prior to my order I received water with ice and fried wonton chips with various sauces (a nice free snack for dining in, but I didn't wish to eat those. The men's bathroom is gross and things should be be there like a water drain that's constantly flowing near the back of the toilet. Seems like they did a poor man's handiman's work there. I ordered the general chicken with a side of steam rice. The steam rice was actually the star of the show, nice airy and fluffy. The general (tso's) chicken on the other hand... I wouldn't even call that chicken. The sauce is like a typical sauce where it's nice and sweet and slightly spicy but that's about it. The "chicken" is not at all chicken... I cut them open and it just looks like batter that was fried in oil and shaped to look like chicken. The sauce masks the flavor of "chicken" so it's "delicious" and "good"... It costs ~$17 plus tip for that meal and I felt like I got completely robbed... I support local business but that is a scam to the customer and that's just terrible. Would not go back, I'd rather go to Panda Express or make it myself than to go here again read more

Great sushi! Great service! Hidden gem!! I'd forgotten about Chus Too, but I won't again! So delicious. read more

Excellent service read more

Fast service, I was in a hurry to make an appointment. Great food. Very wide choice of foods. Courteous service. read more

Always delicious,sushi is the best in town. J22. Yum. The volcano roll is good too. read more

Disappointing service. I ordered lemon chicken and daughter ordered egg flower soup. She shared a couple of bites of my lemon chicken so they added a split charge to our bill of $2.50. Asked him about it and he said it was because we only ordered 1 meal and they brought out an extra water. read more

Clean, small and cozy. We are from out of town looking on Yelp for a good Chinese restaurant. We found the best in Chu's Too Chinese/Japanese cuisine. I had stir fry prawn, chicken, scallop with vegetables. Husband had chicken yakitori. Both were so tasty and good. Nice size portions. Friendly and good service. read more

This restaurant was recommended for sushi but they have so much more! Small, cozy atmosphere, great service, excellent food! It was our first visit as we are new to Redding. We chose the house special dinner. It was salad, soup, sashimi, sushi rolls, tempura , rice and an entree of shrimp, chicken, scallops and vegetables. It was all delicious and so much food. We will definitely be back! read more

The wife and I love meeting at Chu's 2 for lunch. The lunch menu is an excellent value and the surroundings have an upscale "Bistro" feel. Great welcoming service. If the weather cooperates, grab a table on the patio. We love how they cook their Mongolian Beef. Tender beef strips browned in a HOT wok. No greasiness, or thick cornstarch coating, as is common at some places. Nice bright flavors, and light crispy, fried items. 5 star experience. read more

Chu's Too is located in the old Pine Street School House building; I believe it opened around 1985 or '86. We've enjoyed their food ever since. A good variety of delicious Szechuan foods but their spicy Mongolian beef plate is amazing! It's been my favorite since my first taste way back when. Add in some beef, pork, shrimp, or even egg fried rice, a little Almond Chicken or Sweet & Sour Pork and you can't miss. Service and ambiance is excellent, with tables well placed with spacing to allow a comfortable, uncrowded experience, even though the restaurant is not large. Some might call it quaint. I'm not a fan of sushi but my friends say it's can't miss so I'll go with that! Order in or take out, Chu's Too is worth it. read more

If you ever come through Redding and crave Chinese food, Chi's Too is the place. It is interesting that they are Japanese and Chinese restaurant but I find that they are more Chinese than Japanese. I ordered a family dinner for three and got an abundant amount of food that the three of us cannot finish. We got Egg Flower Soup with corn. Some Won Ton crisps, spring rolls and chef's salad as appetizers. California Roll was thrown in making to add the Japanese component to the dinner. The Yakitori Chicken were fantastic. Entrees include Beef with Broccoli and sweet and sour pork. Both were done well. The sweet and sour pork was done right with a crispy shell that is thin and light, not a heavy thick shell. The beef with Broccoli has a delicate taste. I feel that they are a cut above in terms of presentation, facilities, and taste. The only thing I noticed was, I had some left over sweet and sour pork. It was in the paper Chinese takeout box. I put the box in a plastic bag and then in a paper bag. The oil from the sweet and sour pork soaked through the paper takeout box, the plastic bag and the paper bag and was really gluey. That was a bit unusual. I would love to learn why that happened. read more

I searched Yelp for best Sushi in Redding. I just moved from the SFBA and needed some direction. The results listed Chick filet as #2. Must be the advanced AI that I've been hearing about My plan is to try 8-10 establishments in a couple of months and leave reviews. I'm looking for good food and a great price. Sushi imho must be enjoyed at the restaurant ....the freshest sushi at the proper temperature is the best! Sushi is not a to go item even a 15 minute delay will effect the flavor. Chu's Too specializes in a wide variety of Chinese and Japanese entries. I ignored that fact 'cuz I'm always looking just for Sushi. I figured this would be a better place to start than Chick-Filet. My brother and I enjoyed many pieces of Nigiri, a few specialty rolls and a couple large beers. The service was exceptional. The food was great and the bill was in the $70 range. read more

Fantastic sushi and the family dinner for two was delicious. I only took a few pictures as I was too busy eating. In addition to the pictures I posted I had a dragon boat of sushi and sashimi. As well as chicken and shrimp with vegetables. 5 courses in the family dinner for two. read more

Everything was great! Friendly, great service and fantastic food. I go there whenever I can!

Please take this review and learn from it. You do NOT know how to prepare sushi. The salmon was brown and the rice was mushy which was enough for me to immediately throw it away. By far the worst food I have ever received from any food establishment. I wonder how clean your business is? read more

Chu’s Too - Salmon Avocado Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Redding, California

other than Chu's at the airport Chu's Too is by far one of the best eating places in Redding. Why below average pizza prices prices approach $40 and burritos $15 even sit down restaurants approaching $20.00 for a hamburger.. Why do absolutely terrible places such as Denny's and Black Bear even exist read more

Great taste, friendly service, extensive menu, and cozy ambience. What more could you ask for? The General Chicken had a beautiful texture of crunch and nice bite. Do ask for their homemade chili sauce if you like spicy. The sushi rolls' portion size was generous. The front-of-house guy is efficient and friendly. Here's a high quality scan of their menu. read more

Great food! Dry braised our favorite! Nice atmosphere especially for lunches. Great service

Way better than expected. This is an American Chinese restaurant that also serves sushi rolls. Both are delicious. Sakura roll- lots of ingredients. Rice is the right texture. Tastes fresh Scallops, shrimp and chicken with veggie (lunch special 17)- it tastes much better than it looks. The man that serves us was funny and friendly. Very positive :) I would come back if I stop by Redding! read more

Sooooo, I wanted Chinese and my wife wanted sushi. Not the place for sushi, but if you want Chinese you're good to go! The he chef doesn't seem to have any training in preparing sushi. The fish is bland not fresh, pieces are not cut right. The staff is awesome and very attentive. The Chinese food is very American but good. So, if want good Chinese American food this would be a good choice. read more

Prices are high and the quality is just ok. To me it doesn't have much taste. Too expensive for me but I am retired now. It is very clean and it sits back in a group of businesses. I have never seen it busy. Redding does have a lot of Chinese restaurants and this restaurant is average. Appears to look fancy and the prices seem to reflect a fancy restaurant. read more

Best Chinese food in Redding hands down. Cordial and prompt customer service. Cute little restaurant. Little pricy but well worth it. I order the sesame beef and house fried rice. It's superb. I would definitely recommend. read more

Food was great. Not greasy, tender fresh meat. Best Chinese in town. People were friendly and competent

Wonderful food, fantastic service! Small, romantic spot for a nice date. Best edamame!

Ide give this place a 4.5/10. We go the general TSO chicken. Beef chow mien and the pork fried rice and got a CA roll on the side. The chow mien was bland and the beef seem boiled then flash fried. The pork fried rice was good 4/5 on that. The chicken I was expecting it to be bit a bit crunchy but it was soft but flavor was good 4/5 on that. The CA.roll was good kind of hard to mess that one up. read more

Best Chinese food in town! Their food always tastes great and we've been eating there for years.

Not the best place to get sushi rollls. I ordered the rock in roll sushi roll, it had barely any eel in it. Also it had imitation crab in it, which did not taste pleasant with the eel. For the price, it wasn't worth it. The salmon sashimi was fresh, and very yummy however. I would go back here to try the Chinese food, but will most likely avoid the rolls. read more

Stopped by tonight after traveling in car all day. Had great reviews and we were not disappointed. Place was busy at 7pm full of family's and seniors. Always a good sign. Had the spicy green beans and prawns with the amazing roll. Little salad and they even had Kimchee. Large portions. Very large sushi roll. We ate it all but just barely. Highly recommended. read more

This is by far the best Chinese restaurant in Redding, their Sushi is also excellent. I have never had a dish there I did not like.

Listen, everything about this place was extravagant. The food was mouth watering, life-changing, even. I had the teriyaki chicken, and for a moment there, the world was at piece. If Vladimir Putin and Zelensky decided to dine at Chu's Too, the war would be over the food is that good. The fried rice was chief's kiss, absolutely perfect. If I had a di%%, I would f#%^ that rice. I would pound that rice, even. I would knock that rice up with triplets and stick around to pay child support and maybe show up to a baseball game or two. Get the rice. read more

Service was good, but we just picked up a to go order. Food was below average. We got Kung Pao chicke , which said it was going to be spicy, and it was not spicy at all. I even ate a pepper to see, but it had zero spice to it. May e a bad batch ‍ But the spicy beef was also not spicy. Egg rolls were good. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be coming back to try anything else. read more
