I'd like to give a shoutout to the La Mesa location and especially Michel Acolt because your food, your staff's friendliness, and your smile makes me always want to come back. Thank you for all that you do! read more

Food is great. Good portions, great quality and healthy options too! Deals for family or single servings. Always hitting the mark with flavor though. Service absolutely immaculate. Michel showed peak quality service. He cares about his customers for sure. He took the time to help another guest in a wheel chair with their drink at the fountain station and even brought their food out table side. Came here with my wife and we ordered the house chicken and the lettuce wraps. So good! read more

In leaving an appointment nearby I took advantage of stopping in to this pick up sticks. Having never been to one before I researched their menu and what I wanted to get and found it super easy on their website to go through each menu item and figure out exactly what I wanted. It gives you the option to add your utensils and any condiments you want. Loved opening the bag and having exactly the amount I requested of different sauces, it was done 10 minutes before they said it would be, and the food was so hot and fresh! Staff was super friendly, and the place was really clean and much bigger inside than I had thought. After getting in my car, I peaked inside the dish and the vegetables are so fresh, the meat is all quality good meat! I was just so impressed, I will be back for sure!!! Great job to the staff!! read more

Portion size and quality have seemed to declined a bit over the last month. At several locations.

First time trying it!!! Excellent service!! The food was delicious!! All personal was very kindly with us. The spicy Korean bbq steak was really good and tasty, but my favorite was the hot honey chicken. Just be careful if you don't like spicy stuff read more

Michael needs a raise--top tier customer service! From the moment I walked in he greeted me with such a warm welcome with great suggestions. Thanks Michael! read more

Food was fresh and still steaming when we received it. The restaurant is clean and the menu offerings are great. We ordered the family meal for 3 (Togo) and requested two plates to dine in and take the rest home. The portions were big, and I loved the catering tray that it came in. It made everything much easier to eat and share from. Service was good and prompt. read more

When you order and specifically ask for no green onions and then drive all the way home to find that it is littered with green onions does not make for a pleasurable meal. Spent way too much time fishing them out. read more

I love this pick up sticks. The staff is always friendly. I have to say I took a star off because I ordered some cream cheese wontons on Wontons Wednesday, but never received them. I had ordered a family meal & got the wontons with that, but not the extra ones I ordered. The atmosphere is casual inside, but cozy. I usually order on the app & pick up my order. This is my go to for Asian food. read more

First time experience . Mario was extremely helpful to us and everyone that walked in after us. Very attentive and went as far as checking ingredients on an item to make sure we were satisfied. Will definitely come back to this specific location. Thanks team. read more

We love Pick Up Stix! It's an awesome option for families. Lots to choose from and ways to make things healthier. Their steamed and non breaded chicken is super yummy.

This is my first time ever coming to pickup stixs I initially came for Costco pizza but right now their food court is closed. Eduardo immediately acknowledged me. Since being my first time I wanted to ask his opinion on what dish was better. He was kind and attentive the whole process. Also the chocolate dipped fortune cookies are AMAZING. Side note: location is very clean read more

Very friendly staff and food was great we are from out of town so this was a real treat for us. The restaurant was clean

Yeah I like food that isn't authentic. Especially if it is a yummy sauced super crispy tofu dish. So those who are going to jump on my back need to calm down! I usually show up right at opening because I get the firecracker tofu cravings something fierce! It hits me early in the morning and then I know I need to plan my day around my secret shameful passion... If you are a vegetarian than I say give it a try. Just don't be shocked if you develop a slow burning obsession.... read more

Pick Up Stix La Mesa is located just to the west of Costco on Fletcher Parkway near Baltimore Drive in a small area it shares with other fast food restaurants. The parking lot is awkwardly shaped and a bit tricky, so use caution. My Mother has always liked the Orange chicken [called "General's Orange chicken" on the menu]. Accordingly, I went in and ordered that tonight. The cashier was named Alberto, and he was very pleasant and efficient---a stellar employee for the company! I ordered the food to go. The packing of the chicken was in a covered, well-sealed container dish that I could eat from directly, which made it all the more easy. No washing of dishes necessary once you got home! A fortune cookie is a fun final treat offered on the house. read more

I order from here at least once a week! The quality and taste of the food is delicious. Since I moved to San Diego in the 90s, I have frequented Pick Up Stix. Recently they added curbside pick up which I really appreciate as a busy working mom and professional. They have rewards program which works out great. We get a free meal every so often and a percentage or dollar amount off our order most times we order. They also deliver! read more

Great service, and food has always been hot and fresh. My daughter loves the orange chicken.

Often come here at least once a week for the amazing food and customer service! The food is incredibly delicious and healthy orientated
