Not my typical place but my friend loves it here so came to grab some food. What I like about this place is their customer service. The guy that takes your order had a smile on him the whole time. Was really nice and exuded great customer service. Not sure if this is normal but he gave me two white chocolate fortune cookies at the end. Offered water while I wait. It's the little things that count and those touches are great. read more

I came with my wife and was welcomed by the manager as soon as we walked in. This location is well lit and clean. We asked for recommendations and we were not disappointed. I like the portion sizes, the flavor, the spice level on my dish hit the spot. My wife got the Salmon which she said was both light and filling. I really enjoyed seeing a variety of choices on the menu. This is a great spot for both lunch and dinner. read more

Pick Up Stix Fresh Asian Flavors - Chinese Near Me - Carlsbad, California

The service is great. Workers are extremely nice and patient. Food came fairly quickly, and tasted amazing. Recommend 100%

It's Sunday night April 10 .... I just returned from a 3 monthlong trip out of town Pick Up Stixs sounded good The App is temporarily unavailable? I called...no answer... I drove down there and a line of 4 people... Two staff members 1 up front 1 cooking Phone is ringing....ringing she is not answering Too busy.... What has happened to this place? Don't blame it on COVID-19 Oceanside is great fast and 4 people THIS STORE AND THIS Management needs to get its act together...... I am calling corporate.... If I ever get my food!!!! read more

This is, according to my girlfriend (and upon trying the food I agree completely) the worst asian food we have ever had. We ordered a chicken bowl and a drink, which somehow cost an exorbitant $20. The carrots were brown and hard and cooked not at all, in addition to the fact that the snap peas were going bad and tasted foul. So, hopefully only did they manage to swindle us out of $20, because we're here to let you know this place is horrific. There is a reason no one will be inside when you arrive. read more

The food was fast but I ordered the noodles and they were way over sauced. I will be taking it home and making another dish just using the leftover sauce. read more

Always one of our favorites for a quick and fresh Asian experience! Fun to take it to the beach and eat and watch the sunset. Try the Kung Pao Chicken read more

The food is excellent most of the time but this time around it wasn't. The rice was drenched in sauce with the k pao beef. I don't understand why they don't put rice in the side anymore so one can control how much sauce they actually want. I don't recommend it anymore for this reason. read more

My husband and I love going to this Pick Up Stix for the Wonton Wednesday deal. The food is always amazing, and we've tried a lot of what's on the menu. Their service is super friendly and very prompt. One of the employees, Hector, is especially amazing! He definitely deserves a raise, ASAP. We always enjoy our trips here because of him and the rest of the staff. read more

I love this Chinese restaurant. They always cook to order, use the freshest ingredients and always have a smile. Everytime I order from their app the food is ready when I arrive and they've never made an error on my orders. The Manager is always cheerful and greets me with a smile. I'll always be a loyal client as long as Alejandro Hernandez is the Manager. read more

Pick Up Stix Fresh Asian Flavors - The best manager. - Chinese Near Me - Carlsbad, California

Staff are super friendly, the food tasted great and was served up really quickly. Great place.

Love the house special chicken and the honey chicken. Food was hot, fresh and quick. Great chicken quality too!

Service was awesome. Ivan was very nice polite and took his time explaining the menu to me and my wife they made the food fresh with a smile and the portions were great. We are looking forward to coming back again thank you very much Ivan for awesome service. read more

Cymbaline is always so welcoming and helpful with helping me order , food is always great I was a newbie but I come in once a week now lol . So many healthy options read more

I know this place gets a bad rap, but I still think it does a few things very well. Most notably, I think they have some great tofu options. Most places seem like they add this option as an afterthought, whereas this is a big part of the standard Pick Up Stix menu. I usually get their Kung Pao tofu or the Thai coconut curry, tofu, and both are consistently good. Since I don't eat much chicken and never red meat, I can't comment on those dishes. Maybe that's why my review isn't so negative - tofu is usually less risky than meat if there are quality issues. I don't order from here very often, but I still consider it when I'm craving vegetarian Americanized Chinese food. read more

Loved the professional and organized behavior of the employees. Food came out fast and delicious. Overall great ambiance.

For a Pick Up Stix, this location is beautiful! I was really impressed when hubby and I went in for a quick bite. They've changed the decor - it's really colorful now and they've got these circular booths (I love booths) that are really comfy too. They're always very accommodating when it comes to coupons (which I love too!) and specials. I like that there is nice outdoor seating and a semi-private parking lot next to the eatery too. Thanks Pick Up Stix! We'll be back . . . read more

Great atmosphere really clean very friendly here. Highly recommend this place! The workers are very hard working. Food is delicious too!

This place is bomb!! Great food and employees r always so nice here! And it's always clean here!

I ordered a lunch combo of orange chicken , brown rice and 2 wontons. It taste like something from supermarket frozen section thawed out - no big deal. Portion was meager and blah.... I asked for chopsticks and after looking around she informed me that they're out ! Are you kidding me - this is a Chinese restaurant and bear the name pick up stix -. Who's in charge of inventory here. It's like the Noodle House telling me they ran out of noodles ! Service is slow if ever existent .... employees are not even trained to say hello or goodbye- they just look at you funny ! Strange place ... read more

We were given great service. Quick and delicious meal. This is my daughter's new favorite place

Nice place clean good food and good service and prices are the best in the area I recommend this one but they have more locations

Found my new drug of choice house chicken is sooooo addicting!!!! Staff is friendly and restaurant is always so clean. Love coming here with the family. read more

I'm recommend this location and very good costume services of food it's very good!!! And very clean restaurant!!!

definitely recommend this restaurant. always friendly and helpful. food is fresh and delicious. come on in and try it

We love our local Pick-Up Stix. Our Chef, Martin, is always working hard to prepare the best meal for us. He always takes time to greet us! We feel like he definitely goes out of his way for us, but I am sure he treats all his customers this way. Always a great meal. Zayki is also very kind to us every time we eat here. He makes sure we get great service consistently. Great prices, specials, and portion sizes. read more

I loved this place! I had the Kung pow and it was super delicious. Sauce can be a bit over the top. But with rice and noodles on the side it made the perfect trio. read more

This review is not a reflection on the Carlsbad location store, but rather the menu at Pick Up Stix as a chain. (The Carlsbad store is always clean and the staff is helpful and friendly- this is not a criticism of them in any way.) This is one of the few places that we can get take-out Chinese food near our home. Unfortunately, almost everything on the Pick Up Stix menu is waaaaaayyyyy too sweet. Most of the sauces are very sugary. There are a couple of dishes on the menu that aren't, and they do have some good coupons / promotions that we sometimes take advantage of, but in general I avoid eating here. read more

Bro you guys took away take out boxes now you're putting food in plastic and it doesn't taste nearly as good in boxes, such a fail here to cut costs it's sickening. Also why don't I have soy sauce in my to go order. Just out a couple packets in every to go order. Meal ruined breh read more

Quick service!! The price for the quality you get is great. If you want something familiar and consistent come here.

This is by far the BEST place to eat! Delicious, fresh cooked food, great service, every time. I have been coming here for 10 years, and I would recommend to anyone! The ambiance is always perfect each time too! I will continue to go here regularly and highly recommend this restaurant! The service is amazing, the staff is absolutely amazing, and the food!! Every single time!! read more

As you enter you will be greeted by the pleasant smells of the various dishes served here. This location is spotless, with excellent customer service and delicious food. The food here goes above and beyond any other location I've visited. If you are into spice, I have to recommend the firecracker chicken, it is a game changer for chicken entree's. read more

Decided to go here for take out dinner so that I could eat in my hotel room. I ordered the Mongolian Beef with white rice and a couple of chicken egg rolls. The beef was okay but too much green onions. I liked the egg rolls and there was a nice sauce that was sort of lemon with slight sweetness. read more

I was a big fan of this chain like 10 years ago until my favorite store in la Jolla (since out of business) experienced a stark decline in quality that turned me off for years. This site has completely redeemed the franchise for me. Not only is the food back up to my expectations, but the service, cleanliness and friendliness is really top notch. Great run store for sure. Cheers! read more

Went here with a coupon, the manager at this location seemed irritated I was using a coupon. That alone wouldn't have bothered me, however my genuine question when I asked about different menu items seemed like such an inconvenience that it left a bad taste about this location. Food was good, if you know exactly what you want you're good to go, but since I know my BF will still have more questions about the menu.. we'll be driving to the further location where they're friendlier. Otherwise good fresh food, (zucchini was a little undercooked) the rest of the staff seemed friendly, and it seemed clean. Worth trying for sure! read more

I've tried several items at this location and this is by far the best. If I was going to a story to pick ingredients I couldn't do better GRILLED SALMON SALAD. Salmon was seasoned with peppercorns. On a bed of green's including herbs like cilantro. The texture is what made this with wontons, carrots and mandarin oranges. Topped with flavorful ginger, s read more

I haven't eaten here in quite awhile and wanted to see if it improved after Covid shutdowns. It was really not very impressive. The wonton soup was not edible. The "chicken" that was in it was cardboard and I had to spit it out and the wontons were just not good. The crunchy noodles with it were beyond stale and the fried wontons were not crispy. The chicken in their new Drunken noodles tasted like it was frozen and then microwaved to thaw out. Will not give this place another try. read more

Super nice people here ..fast and delicious! Exactly what I was looking for and the lady there just knew exactly what I needed, thanks! Great service! read more

I have ordered from here twice and never will again. I do not like seafood, the taste of or the smell of it. Both times I ordered here including today I ordered chicken dishes and both times I had to throw them out because they tasted like fish. Obviously they are using either the same oil or same pan for both chicken and fish. Completely grossed me out... and what about people with seafood allergies? Do I have to lie and claim I have an allergy just to have my meal taste like it is supposed to? So gross ... read more

Very good tasting food and very good customer service. In all a very good experience here. Id say the drunken noodles and the orange chicken is really good here. Also martin is one of the best chefs there read more
