Love this place! Fresh food and great people who run it and cook your food made to order!…read more This place has been in chico for 35 years and I've only been a few times but it is becoming a staple for us. It's hard to pass up a good vibe and fresh food! Love the windows into the kitchen so you get to see them make your food and even wave! They were kind enough to set up a table for 8 ahead of time and were kind when our entire party didn't show. Mu shu is out of this world food and fresh the pancakes are amazing and I want to buy some for home! So fresh and flavorful and she will roll them for you!! The po po platter was perfect gave us a little of everything and is more than enough to share for 3!! Sizzling rice soup - great broth and wonderful vegetables nice and crunchy! Can't remember the name of the chicken dish but wow - it's something you must eat there or get the sauce on the side if you get it to go! It's so crunch and yummy! We've had other food and would suggest this little gem to anyone!! Nice owners and staff!! Really enjoy going and sitting and even visiting!

I was charging my rental Tesla in the parking lot, and Starbucks had a long line. I saw this place…read morehad Boba tea, which I enjoy, so I came in here instead. The place is clean and everybody was friendly. The food is on a cafeteria type line, you just pick out what you want, and then they serve it to you and you take it to your table. I can't speak to the main dishes, themselves, as I just came in for a Boba tea. I did see that they also had wontons on the line, so I also did an order of wontons as a snack. The wontons were wonderfully crispy, and not greasy at all, and they were very generous with the portion. I liked the sweet-and-sour sauce, it was sweet and just a little bit tangy. I had the Matcha milk tea, it was creamy and had a wonderful flavor. It's hard to describe the flavor of Matcha, but I do like it. It was a bit sweet, and just a bit savory. They asked me if I wanted the Boba pearls, which I did because I like them a lot, and they were very generous with them. A milk tea and an order of wontons was only nine bucks. Extremely reasonable. Thank you for a nice stop.

I was really wishing this place was worth it but it wasn't…read more For positives: -The staff was nice and the place was relatively clean. For the negatives: -Doesn't appear there was AC. It was 100 outside and just humidity and hot inside as well. Very uncomfortable. -Ordered 2 boba milk teas. It was like drinking watered down milk with a slightly toxic weird flavor. It did not taste good. -Ordered 2 shrimp fried rice bowls. The rice was old and seemed like it'd been reheated. (My husband is Filipino. I know what fresh rice and fried rice tastes and looks like. This was NOT) The shrimp had been boiled. Not fried. -Also ordered a thing of the crab wontons. They were very rubbery and stale. Overall it was very disappointing. Will not be eating there on our way back home. Side note: I probably would have gotten a combo but all the food on their food line was dried out and looked like it had been sitting all day. I threw out what I had left. Which from the pic I didn't even eat half.

In our short trip out to Chico, out of all places we ate, this one is the most memorable. This is a…read moreChinese buffet restaurant, and from what we searched, only buffet they had in all of Chico area. Even the casinos no longer offer buffets at casinos (this is very sad). So we are buffet snobs as well. We know a good place when we've eaten at one, and there are not many out there. Really there are what is it a dime a dozen? but the opposite. Let me start off by saying that this place serves normal food. I mean if you remember Hometown Buffet from back in the days, where they just got staple food and it was done well. Not great, but well. This is like that place. They do well with what they offer. First off, visited the salad station. You'd prob thinking, it's just salad right? Well, yes, but this is why this was great. NO ONE WAS THERE!!! LOL. Chico got some fat ppl that don't eat veggies. The vegetables were clean and fresh. 100% they cleaned and prepped this today. Also, their crab salad was stellar. Like right amount of mayo and the crab salad was not the cheap stuff either. Keep in mind there are people going around the buffet stations cleaning up ALL THE TIME TOO, so they are concerned about presentation very much. Had their hot and sour soup. It was good. It did not taste like buffet soup, but it was good like if you were to sit down and eat at a Chinese restaurant good. On to the fried food. This is where they shine. They don't just fry for the sake of frying stuff. They make sure it is lightly battered and seasoned gently. These stuff are not fried from frozen. From the fried chicken (this is fresh - i know that for fact cuz my mouth said so), the fried shrimp stellar. Everything was piping hot like they make sure the warmers are hot and that they refill the food up properly. Like I said multiple workers goes around ensuring things look and is right. Their fries were even hot and crispy. WTF. Those are usually soggy and gross. Not these. Tried so many stuff this evening I think i gained like 10 lbs! I did try the sushi - meh, and it's not expected if you pay $20/pp for buffet your sushi quality gets better. It was just a hair below ok. I didn't care for it, but at same time expectations were low. They also had a grill station where you can pick a boat load of stuff and have them fry it up. I didn't try it, but they have a lot of great options between veggies and meat. Overall, for $20/pp for dinner on a Sunday night is a steal! Like remember Hometown Buffet for $10/pp for dinner? This is like that, but with inflation and tariffs, still a great deal! Next time we in this area, this is first place we'd go back to for dinner. This was memorable and in comparison, to all Sacramento area stuff, this one is top 3 at least.

Chinese and sushi! Love it!!…read more Love sitting in the sushi bar with the colors and lighting!! The other best spot is by the koi pond or at the long table on the other side of the koi pond lol There is a sushi roll that has salmon pesto and an olive and it's bomb! Fun flavors and really enjoyed it! There are some other great rolls too! The spicy salmon was simple yet yummy! Mom usually gets vegetable chow mein with crispy noodles it's loaded with veggies! We love the bento boxes! The mu shu pork is amazing and enough for a few meals!! Get extra wraps! The dumplings seem to be homemade which is a bonus! Service is usually great! We went in and were in a hurry and of course the service was a little slow but I think there were only two servers and they did a great job considering how many patrons there were!! The last time we were in the sushi chefs must have been in a bad mood the didn't say hi or acknowledge me when I went to the bar to check the freshness of the fish!! I had pics but can't find them LOL!!!

The music was excellent and our server was working hard. With how busy it was with diners, our…read moreserver still made time to check on us, ask if we wanted soup and rice, and brought us our bill in a timely manner. Watching the cooks hard at work and mastery of Mongolian bbq was like a well-oiled machine. Watching the cooks and seeing staff continuously refill the food, toppings, and sauce containers for customers, while also putting out more bowls and trays, was like watching a flawless production! As for our food, the price of lunch is bang for buck because of how much you can fill your Mongolian BBQ bowl and the soup, rice, and addicting wonton chips with sweet and sour dipping sauce that come with your lunch meal. I gave 4 stars because the garlic and potato soup was super salty. My friends and I agreed this soup would have been perfect if it didn't taste like salt was poured into it. In addition, watching the cross contamination of some diners touching the raw meat in their bowls then touching the next tongs, like for the veggies, was a big health risk concern for me. With this, I keep in mind that I don't even know if this can be prevented due to the way Mongolian BBQ works with customers serving themselves, like a buffet. I understand it would be hard to control and prevent the cross contamination from touching the meat, especially as customers try to make room in their big bowl. In the end, the number of people dining, then seeing more people entering, shows how popular Hula's is!

I've tried Thai food from many different places, and this yellow curry is officially my new favorite. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and delicious. The only downside was that the yellow curry didn't have much chicken in it, which was a little disappointing. Other than that, the dish was amazing and full of flavor. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be ordering from here again!
