Top 12 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in in Redding, CA

Holly Paget We were at Grape Escape wine bar and their chef was ill so no food available. Did an online order with Cinders. Food came promptly- pizza and salad were delicious. We were grateful for great food.

Mrs Price This is all I want when I visit Redding. It never disappoints; the food is always consistent, and the staff are all so welcoming. The Buddha bowls are a must-try with a side of falafel.

Gabriella Herrera My family and I stopped at Spice Garden on our drive down I-5, and we’re so glad we did. The location is super convenient right off the highway, and from the moment we sat down we felt genuinely cared for. Service was fast, friendly, and attentive—we had multiple servers throughout the night and were never left waiting. We loved everything we ordered: pakoras (a standout!), chicken biryani, lamb bati, butter chicken, papadam and garlic naan. We also appreciated the endless masala chai refills. The chutney and plum sauce were exceptional, and to top it all off, I had their house-made pistachio ice cream, which was incredibly creamy and delicious. I was shocked to hear they’ve only been open for about five months—they truly have it figured out. We’ll absolutely be back and will be recommending this spot to everyone passing through Redding!

Claire Holman This place is phenomenal! The pho is delicious and the staff is so friendly. I always get the beef pho and the staff even gave me extra broth for free one time. The broth is so rich and flavorful. Highly recommended.

Alex Harrison Weve been searching Redding for weeks, looking for a quality steak. We finally found what we were looking for. We tried every so called steakhouse on the east side of town only to be let down time after time. Jacks has the best steak Weve had in Redding, not only that, it has the best waitstaff and atmosphere. We were pleased with the value for the price. Its the only place well be eating steak!

Joie Tellez It was very busy tonight. We were seated immediately, our server was spot on with her timing. We ordered the house lasagna and the prime rib dip. Both were amazing and delicious! The price for everything was under $50. We were offered dessert but were full half way through our meal. I should have gotten the carrot cake to go. Oh, well, next time! No rush, no fuss. We enjoyed our dinner tonight. Thank you for a great evening and awesome service!

Dan Opalach This is one of the best places to get breakfast in Redding. Love the food, love the service. My wife and I have been coming here for almost ten years! I usually get the California omelette (see picture) and it’s always delicious. Also, here’s a loud shout out to Maria and Debbie who do an exceptional job waiting tables. They’re the best!

Levi Felton We showed up because we were hungry for burgers, but we were blown away by the quality and quantity of what we received! Everything was delicious and plentiful! Definitely my new favorite for American fare. The garlic fries? Come on! Amazing stuff, people. Our leftovers will be another meal that I cant hardly wait to get into. We ordered a Drunken Burger with garlic fries, a French Dip with a salad, a Chicken Philly with onion rings, a burger (that had onion in the name) with fries, and an appetizer of Fried Jalepenos. Like I said, everything was delicious.

Distant Dreams I was looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate my boyfriends birthday and our engagement while in Redding and heard of this place. I have to say I was more than happy with the choice. We ordered a chicken piccata, chicken marsala, and chicken Alfredo with a Caesar salad. Everything was delicious. We were gifted 2 complimentary cheesecakes to celebrate. They were THE BEST cheesecakes Ive ever had. 1000% recommend for a romantic evening. And they give you ROSES at the end of your dinner!

Melanie Schichtel The perfect breakfast stop for our road trip!! My father and I are traveling up to Washington and were looking for a little mom and pop spot for a hearty breakfast, and this place really delivered! We got the eggs with bacon, and eggs with sausage links, and both were large portions, more than we could finish. The eggs were cooked perfectly, biscuits were large and buttery, and the bacon was thick cut and perfectly cooked. They even have gluten free options (white bread, cornbread, and pancake) every day, but I didnt ask until after our meal was over, so I didnt try any of it. All of the servers were very attentive, whether it was their own section to serve or not, the food came out quick, got, and just to order. All in all, definitely a great place to stop, and worth a repeat meal!

Jimmy I have no complaints, not one. This is definitely up and up. Like my wife said its like Thai food. Went down to Mexico and came back fat and happy and pregnant. This food is delicious and is a must try. The service was amazing. The atmosphere was amazing. The food was godlike to be straight up. Honest I could not find no faults outside of the parking was a little bit difficult but well worth it.

William Evanusich So I stopped in here looking for something different. A Lebanese man said the food was as good as his home country, so I decided to give it a try. I had the lamb Gyro. It was okay, but it did not really taste like lamb, but my server Jodie recommended the lamb meat in the Gyro vs. the Kabab. They even gave me a nice amount of their hummus to try with 5 wedges of flatbread. That was very good. This restaurant had the flavor of the Greek side of the Mediterranean vs. the Lebanese though. The place was almost empty, and the Baklava I had was also very good. My 16 year old did not care for the Baklava, so that was odd considering he likes honey.
