Breakfast sandwich, ham and eggs, pancakes
Lauren S.

Went here before our day in Lassen nation park - Exactly what you'd want it to be!! Solid food solid service solid vibes. Partner got breakfast sandwich, I got ham and eggs which were all simple but good. Decent pancakes. Would go again simply because service was very quick, and the ambiance was charming.

Been in Redding for a week now and just found out about this place on day 3 of being here.. I'm eating here every day until I go back home! This is the most affordable "real food" and what I love the most is it's family owned! Miss G and Uncle Jose are great people and are so welcoming. They have daily specials on top of their regular menu. Thanks for the great service Miss G and Tito Jose! I hope to dine in soon

Jose at the grill working hard.

It was easily the best breakfast experience I've had in a long time. This looks like all the other industrial warehouses in the area, but do not be fooled... the food is outstanding, and the owner is a unique, friendly, and dedicated human. In between making the orders Jose turned and talked with me as I sat at the counter. He explained how he has been running the business for 26 years with his wife. She ran around helping customers, and accepting payment. He steadily worked the grill. The conversation I had with Jose was memorable. We talked about things like gardening, bison, Montana, and his business. His attitude was so laid back and genuine... I got the feeling that he really enjoys his work... which is wonderful being that he has been at it for 26 years. I ordered bacon and eggs with sourdough toast. The food was quality breakfast fare. A couple tables of regular customers chatted behind me and helped themselves to the coffee pot for refills... so I did too. This was a small, family atmosphere place. Nothing corporate about it. The kind of atmosphere I would eat my breakfast in any time I am given the chance. Thank you Jose for the friendly banter and quality food. Your establishment is a diamond in the rough. Respect.

Tamale Pie with Salad

Doesn't look like much in the outside, but turns out Josè's is nice little hole-in-the-wall restaurant/diner. The atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant was neat and well-kept, even though it's small. We the two specials of the day: the tamale pie and the green chili burger. So delicious!!

Barry Special with Saratoga potatoes!

Great food, but the service was not really great. The French toast was not very good. But the rest of the food was awesome.

Friendly little place with nice people. Loved the simple menu and easy going feel of the place…read more The ugly burger is a patty shaped to fit an oblong Franz sandwich roll. That's it. The quality of the burger meat is excellent. I loved the burger bar where you can build your own burger with sauce and toppings to your heart's content. Fries served hot. Salt yourself at table. Fresh brewed tea was perfect. Although not a cheap lunch, Highly recommended!

BEST BURGER IN REDDING... MAYBE THE BEST BURGER EVER…read more Whenever I am in Redding, I make it a point to stop here at least once for a burger. The burgers, the demographic who eats here, the wall decor, and the mild to moderate disrespect and attitude from Dick hasn't changed a bit... and I wouldn't have it any other way. He is a small breath of fresh air when it comes to community and giving back to small business. He gets his meat fresh every single morning... literally fresh, NEVER frozen. He patties and cooks it right there in front of you over an open flame. The burger comes plain with cheese, which you will need to take back to the "Sandwich Bar" where you will put on all of your sauces and condiments. Why is it called the ugly burger? Because the guy cooking the burger is damn ugly! And also the burger is shaped awkwardly long, but fits perfectly in the hoagie bun. It's one of the most fresh burgers I have ever eaten. And each burger is cooked with love. If anyone gave this place less than a 4 star, you don't deserve to leave reviews on Yelp!

By far the best restaurant I've been at sense moving to Redding. Thank you for the amazing meal.read more

We were strolling on Yelp to find a place to grab dinner while staying in Redding for a day. We…read morestumbled on this place. Looked through their menu online and decided to give them a try. Located in the Placer Heights Plaza, next to Starbucks. Same plaza as Holiday Market and CVS Pharmacy. We were seated immediately as they were not busy. The menu was a bit different than online. Our server came to take our order. He didn't introduce himself and seemed like he didn't want to be there. We decided on the fried green tomatoes, fried chicken sandwich and catfish po' boy. When the po' boy came out, we thought it was burnt! We didn't know the catfish will be blackened by default. We thought it will be fried since it is a po' boy. The options can be blackened or fried based on the menu online. We were not given those options by our server. They brought out the food but didnt provide utensils until minutes later. Fried green tomatoes: It was good. Fried perfectly. The dressing that was tossed with the side salad was super salty. Catfish po' boy: Fish was tender but super salty as well. Fried chicken sandwich: Pretty good sandwich. Chicken was huge. The fries was so soggy, not crispy at all. Also very greasy. We were a bit disappointed as we drove out of our way to try this place. Nice ambiance though. I felt I was a bit underdressed lol
