Few weeks ago, we took a drive to visit Burney Falls near Redding, on the way back to the East Bay,…read morewe found this restaurant and we're so hungry. There are plenty of parking in this shopping center. The restaurant is very clean and airy, quite a huge place. The price is very reasonable for all the foods that they have. There is everything for any taste, it's like the Newark Buffet near our home. We got the senior discount automatically which was nice, enough for 2 drinks. The soup bar is excellent, seafood soup, hot and sour, wonton soup they're all good. The sushi bar has all the pre-made sushi which are ok. Every buffet, I would try every dish a little to see what I like, I did like the chicken wings, the scallops, salt and pepper shrimps, actually, all the fried dishes are great, hot and tasty. The hot foods come out very quickly as soon as the trays look low on food. I tried all the soups and they're quite delicious. The service is very attentive and quick for a buffet restaurant, everyone is quite pleasant. The dessert and salad bar are plentiful with fresh produce, jello and I love the almond cookies and coffee cakes. It was a hearty meal for us after a long day hiking in the Burney Falls loop. We'll stop by here next time we're in this area, definitely.

To pay him back I asked him where he wanted to go for lunch, he said that Chinese buffet. OK, I know what place he's talkin about, the Grand Buffet, On Hilltop Drive just off the 5 off of East Cypress exit. East to find and lots of parking. Looks like it's been over 2 years since I was here. The price for lunch now is $17 bucks plus tax and some tip. We get there and the place looks about the same as the last time I was here. They have these big Koi fish that seem to be an attraction near the front. We get seated and drink orders taken. We got here close to opening at 11 am. so all the food was nice and fresh and hot. Don't get here half hour before closing and expect there to be all hot fresh food, it ain't gonna happen. Some of the things I love here are those ribs! Yeah, Chinese can make so damn good ribs! Not Texas style though. Chicken wings are another of my fave here. My friend went wild and ate a ton of food, all kinds of noodles, ribs and wings. I pretty much skipped the carbs and filled up with shrimp, wings and ribs. They even have french fries if you want! Service is the usual just clear the plates and fill the drinks with minimal conversation. I gotta remember this place is here!

Yes. The current version is too long for Yelp's 5,000-character limit. I tightened repetition…read morerather than cutting the specific stories that make the review convincing. I would give this place six stars if Yelp would let me. This visit was actually a few months ago, and I created a Yelp account specifically so I could finally write this review. Ever since we left, I've found myself thinking, "I really wish I had reviewed them." Eventually I realized that just because time had passed didn't mean I shouldn't. When a place leaves this much of an impression months later, people should know about it. We drove about 3 1/2 hours to Win-River Resort & Casino to see Chase Matthew in concert, and from the time we arrived until we left, every employee we interacted with was genuinely friendly and helpful. We arrived near the end of Sunday brunch. It wasn't an enormous casino buffet, but what it lacked in size it made up for in quality. They had pancakes, waffles, biscuits and gravy, an omelet station, and genuinely good fresh crab rather than the cheaper quality you often expect at a buffet. The chocolate and lemon cakes were great, but the fresh fruit compotes made them. Blueberry compote on the lemon cake and strawberry compote with the chocolate was perfect. But the best part of breakfast was the staff. Plates were cleared, drinks stayed full, and everyone was attentive without hovering. When an issue with my credit card took a while to straighten out, our waiter simply stood there talking and joking with me. Instead of making an embarrassing situation uncomfortable, he had me laughing about how banks do things like this. It was one of the best interactions I've had with a waiter in a long time. And it wasn't just him. The man at the casino information desk joked around with me when I got completely turned around trying to find the restaurant. The ladies at check-in took our bags even though we were hours early and held them until we returned after the concert. We were also the first group in line for the concert. Staff moved chairs from nearby machines and lined them up outside the venue so we could keep our place without blocking the doors or spending hours sitting on the floor. The venue was just off the non-smoking section, so we could wait comfortably without sitting in cigarette smoke but were still close enough to walk into the main casino if we wanted to. And this casino is CLEAN. Not just "there's no garbage on the floor" clean. There wasn't grime built up on the machines or dirt ground into the carpet. I haven't been to a huge number of casinos in California, but I've been to my fair share in Nevada, and this was one of the cleanest I've visited. The concert venue was equally clean, organized, and well staffed. Normally after an event you remember that one employee who was especially nice--or that one who wasn't. Here, every single person we encountered was friendly. After the concert, we went to our room and realized we were still hungry, so we headed back downstairs. It was late enough that the restaurant was serving a very limited menu, but after talking with the bartender/server, she made an exception and let us order several bar-food items from the regular menu that weren't available on the late-night menu. The food took a little while, but at that hour I'm guessing the kitchen may have been down to one person. When it arrived, the portions were HUGE. The garlic fries and cheese curds were probably three times the size we expected, and instead of the three decent-sized chicken tenders we expected, we got five. If anything, I felt bad about how much we couldn't finish. There was one downside. Our room was clean, the refrigerator had complimentary bottled water, and the shower had refillable shampoo, conditioner, and body wash that were more than adequate. Unfortunately, someone next door spent about four hours during the night banging on the wall at fairly regular intervals. Ironically, what made that so frustrating was how incredibly comfortable the mattress was. If the bed had been uncomfortable, I probably wouldn't have cared about the banging because I wouldn't have been sleeping anyway! Instead, I was lying in an incredibly comfortable bed knowing that without the noise next door, I would have gotten a genuinely great night's sleep. That was really the only negative part of our experience. I honestly have no real reason to ever be in Redding again, but I can say with certainty that if I ever find myself even within an hour of Win-River Resort & Casino, I'll go back. There aren't many places I'm still thinking about months later--and definitely not many that make me create a Yelp account just to tell other people how good they were.

***This review is specifically for the fuel station***…read more The fuel station was recently expanded and reconfigured, which has made a noticeable difference in traffic flow, especially given the high volume of vehicles it sees. There are two separate areas for regular vehicles, both with one-way traffic patterns and plenty of room to line up for the pumps without causing too much congestion. They also recently expanded to the south and added a dedicated truck fueling area, which is a great addition for big rigs, RVs, and other larger vehicles. The diesel pumps have the larger nozzles, so filling up goes quickly. If you're looking for diesel, I've consistently found this station to have some of the lowest prices in the area. The store has all the usual amenities you'd expect from a gas station, along with a few slot machines if you're feeling lucky and want to do a little gambling while you're there. Overall, it's worth making a stop here if you need fuel. The prices are competitive, the new layout handles traffic better, and the dedicated truck/RV fueling area is a nice convenience.

Well, it's been about a week since I came across Joe's barbecue there in Redding on our way home…read morefrom my uncle's funeral in Visalia California. I have to tell you , truthfully, I called 10 minutes before they were about to close . I begged the lady on the phone , I need to order something. I gotta try your barbecue I'm only 7 minutes away. So they put together a phone order, I showed up and who was sitting at the table but Joe. You talk about a friendly guy, we sat and chatted. I ended up opening up my meal, calling my sister to come in from the car and sit down. He went in the back and made me some concoction that was out of this world. Here's the thing the Carolina barbecue sauce made with the mustard is so freaking phenomenal. I bought a container of it and brought it home and put it in a glass jar and have been allowing my children to taste it on the back of a spoon and tonight we're actually going to barbecue wings and toss them in it. Hands down "This is the best Carolina honey barbecue sauce" I've ever tasted and I've tasted a lot. Whatever his secret is, I would love to have it cause I want to can it and I'm not sure why he doesn't bottle this and sell it himself. It is literally gold in a bottle. Now, as far as their sweet potatoes, I was so impressed because usually when you go to a barbecue place, they give you orange yams and call them sweet potatoes. Not this guy he had straight yellow sweet potatoes with some type of honey brown sugar goodness dripping over the top. The pork ribs were fantastic and so were the smothered fries with the barbecued pork my Lord just rub it on my hips. The hospitality was phenomenal. He gave me a little bit of his rub that he puts on his ribs. Just so I could smell it and have a sample because I am a chef. I told him he needs to come up to where we're from in Portland, Oregon, and bring his barbecue. Don't miss this spot it's BBq to live for!!!

Maple Garden here is still my most fave Chinese restaurant for take out in Red Bluff. They have all the usual dishes, already made up in steam strays like at a buffet, it's just not all you can eat! The inside is not the fanciest joint, but hey it's cheap! You pay for each dish individually. They'll dish you out the food and the portions are super generous, they stuff the box all the way. I you don't see what you want, they can probably custom make the dish for you, like curry noodles, or chow fun noodles. That's what I did, just ask and they'll make fresh food for you and the prices are cheaper than any sit down restaurant these days. Better to bring cash here. We had the cook make a fresh batch of General's Chicken, along with some Curry thin rice noodles and my friend wanted a side of the regular chow mien. The bag they packed it all in weighed a ton! When we got it back to my house we opened the boxes and were surprised by the super generous portions. The food was so dang tasty and still all hot when we got back to the house.
