First couple of times I had stopped by for something to drink and had tried both the Earthy Oat float when I was in the mood for something fruitier, and the Peanut Butter Exstasy when I was looking for something more decadent. Would highly recommend both! The next couple times I brought my appetite and tried the Zion Tacos and the breakfast burrito...both were packed with flavor that are out of this world! The majority of food and drinks here are vegan friendly too! Do not sleep on this gem!

I ordered the Yummy Chocolate Hempcicle Smoothie and he ordered the Peanut Butter Extacy Smoothie w/ Chocolate(extra thick.) Hubby and I swapped smoothies since I didn't care for mine, he loved the hemp flavor! OMG I can see why it has extacy in the name, cuz I'm in love! The perfect combination of flavors and consistency! Easily the best smoothie I've ever had!! This small business opened in 2005, formally known as "Planet Juice!" They specialize in both vegetarian and vegan dishes and also serve 100% natural smoothies and organic juices! We'll definitely be back to try some of their entrees! Great staff and outdoor seating options! SYOY! :D

The chef is deeply involved in the experience, often stepping out to engage with guests and ensure everything is just right. I ordered the Ahi Tuna-- cooked to absolute perfection --and also had a taste of the moussaka, which was hands down the best l've ever had. The desserts were just as impressive, rounding out an exceptional meal. The service was top-notch, attentive without being intrusive. This place is a true gem and an absolute must-visit. Thank you Patti

Came to this restaurant with my daughter and son-in-law for dinner. Establishment was high on my…read moredaughter's list of places that she had wanted to try for quite a while. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by a waiter who seated us immediately and soon had water for us and menus. He then came back with a small bowl of soup for each of us. I don't know if they change their soup flavors often but this one was lentils with short green rice and it was very very good. I was impressed right away with how friendly he was and one of the kitchen staff saw us and she was just as kind. We ordered a couple of appetizers; one was a dish of olives and 2 types of pickles. It was a nice amount of items. Our absolute favorite was the Toum....a soft whipped dip, Lebanese dip that had LOTS of garlic but not so much that it was overwhelming. We ordered bread to dip into this. It was WONDERFUL. My daughter ordered the chicken pomegranate plate that had chicken that had been marinated in pomegranate and molasses that was on a bed of long grain rice and a salad on the side, which was very fresh and very crisp. I had the chicken shawarma plate which was incredible and my son in law had the lamb kabobs which he really enjoyed. Our waiters were very prompt clearing our dishes bringing boxes along with complimentary baklava that was very tasty and the perfect end to a great meal! My daughter and I both noticed that it was very clean and I thought it was a very relaxed atmosphere. Incredible meal!!!

We were quickly seated and our server checked up on us frequently. We were impressed by the decor of wine, leather seats, wooden branches, and relaxing music. We ordered the Meatballs, Chicken Pot Pie, and French Onion & Gnocchi soup. The pie's unique presentation was welcoming. The bread was crispy and the chicken mixed with vegetables had the right ratio. The soup went down warm and satisfied my chills. The onion wasn't overpowering the gnocchi. And of course, we had a paired wine that was suggested. We'll be back to try the other fusion dishes.

Stayed at Northstar over the new years holiday and ordered takeout from Petra on 1/2/26. The menu…read moredefinitely felt limited. I ended up ordering chicken pot pie. I'll pause and acknowledge that chicken pot pie isn't typically something one orders out. But having said that, chicken pot pie isn't something I'd expect any restaurant to mess up! What I got was dismally disappointing. It was at best a watery chicken soup served with two pieces of puff pastry. The chicken was probably the leftover of that used for other chicken dishes. To be fair, they had a good crab cake.

We were pleasantly surprised to find a Restaurant that served true Pakistani Food that is Halal…read more There actually is a difference between Pakistani and Indian dishes. While we do enjoy Indian food, it was nice to find Pakistani food. The atmosphere was clean and inviting. We ordered the food to go but shared a Falooda and also drank Chai while waiting for the food to be prepared. The Falooda was rich and creamy with just the right amount of Rosewater. The Chai and Falooda were obviously freshly made. I ordered Saag and Fish Pakora. They were both very tasty. I can only handle mild spicy and Azeem was happy to accomodate my requests. Azeem provided great service and he made a point to cook the food himself and he did a wonderful job. My husband is very picky and I was pleased to see that he thoroughly enjoyed his very spicy dishes. The Tandoori Chicken Legs were juicy, tender and well done. The Goat Karahi was also tender and cooked to perfection. The spices were perfectly used for this dish. The Naan and Rotis were fresh, soft and very tasty. Finally, we would highly recommend this restaurant especially for someone who is looking for authentic Pakistani food which is difficult to find in Yuba City.

Found another great spot on Yelp…read more This place is a kind of simple, no frills place that has GREAT food. You can see their high quality meats they display in the cold case kind of like a deli (in fact I wouldn't be surprised if this was formerly a deli). You pick chicken, beef or lamb and how you like it (shawarma / wrap, on a plate) and minutes later you are served some absolute deliciousness. If you like Mediterranean food, you will love this place. I say this as someone from SF who enjoys some of the best you can get anywhere. This place is on point and I am contemplating ordering some for delivery on day 2 of my visit!

Even a cowboy's gotta stray from the coast now and then, and when I did, I ended up at Ali Baba in…read moreChico, where the gyro plate made me feel like I'd stumbled into a Mediterranean chuckwagon dream. That lamb and beef? Thin-sliced, perfectly seasoned, with just enough crispy on the edge to make every bite count. Laid over a bed of fluffy golden rice, it was practically begging for that cool, creamy tzatziki and trust me, they didn't hold back. The hummus was rich and smooth, and the fresh chopped salad balanced out the plate like a well-packed saddlebag. But what really sealed the deal? The stellar service fast, friendly, and full of good vibes. They treat you like a regular even if it's your first time. And at just $13.99, this kind of quality and portion size feels like robbery... the good kind. So if you're wandering inland and your boots need a break, make your way to Ali Baba. Take it from the unofficial Cowboy Duke of Almost Everything on the Mendo Coast this place is the real deal. #CoastalCowboyEats #AliBabaChico #GyroGoals #MendoToChico #FlavorsWorthTheDrive #TzatzikiAndRespect #CowboyDukeApproved #LunchLikeARoyal
