After getting a good night's sleep, it was time to get some grub before getting back on the road towards home. Even though the motel staff suggested another place for breakfast, I saw this place as I drove by and decided to turn around and give it a try. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rockin-r-red-bluff?fsid=2M6iPth12tu3QYVLVcQJzQ#w--CQLWmVJtUIvaV5-cyOQ APPEARANCE: Clean with a little bit of "country" strewn around. There's also country music playing softly in the background. The clientele were obviously locals and generally older. SERVICE: When I walk in I'm greeted and taken to a booth right away. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rockin-r-red-bluff?select=w--CQLWmVJtUIvaV5-cyOQ#vnArcQ_VM5di-Xct6_sP3g My server Annette was a rock star! She happily answered questions, made suggestions and never left me wanting for anything. I watched how she moved between her tables and the kitchen with speed and determination, not because she was behind or anything, she was focused and made sure her customers waited no longer than necessary for anything! FOOD: I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak & eggs with "taters" and toast ($8.99) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rockin-r-red-bluff?select=w--CQLWmVJtUIvaV5-cyOQ#YOizbacz_igTmzidJ1dv5Q which was quite tasty! The "fried steak" was crispy and seasoned. The milk gravy had pieces of sausage in it and had a slight peppery kick. The "taters" were well seasoned and had a great flavor too! I noticed this sign over the kitchen pass through, made me chuckle: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rockin-r-red-bluff?select=w--CQLWmVJtUIvaV5-cyOQ#wPgdbpDtj26AqEQ0locBZA OVERALL: For a place I passed by and turned around for, the food was quite tasty, the value is good and the service was Rockin! read more

I Walked into restaurant and asked to speak with manager it just so happened the owner was there and eating at a table, when I told her I had been on hold for 19 minutes at that point she just looked around and said "can someone take this order" loyal customer that will never return. read more

Rockin R is open from 6am to 9pm. They serve clam chowder only on Fridays! I came here to pick up some clam chowder after hearing great reviews from others. The clam chowder was really thick and creamy. I loved how there was a lot of chunky potatoes, clams, and spices in the chowder. It was definitely one of the best clam chowder I've tasted! Overall, I would definitely come back to get more chowder! read more

Clean and comfortable restaurant. Servers were outstanding! Food was good but didn't stand out from any other family restaurant. Had decent portions of eggs, bacon, potatoes and biscuits n gravy. They actually give you 4 pieces of bacon. read more

It seems as though Redding's breakfast options are getting stale. By chance months ago we stopped at the Rockin R Restaurant in Red Bluff and were we surprised. I am not sure what makes this place so good. First I thought it was the waitresses there, always friendly, they listen to what you want, bring what you ordered and all with a cheerful smile and a welcoming spirit. Then looking in the arms of the waitresses, the food, oh the food is so good. Not only that the waitresses figure out what you ordered then figure out how to make it cheaper for the customer. While eating the waitresses always walk by to see how things are going and tasting. If they see something that may not look right, they ask if not they just keep on going so as to not be too intrusive. Overall this place is well worth the short drive to Red Bluff from Redding. I think the waitresses are the highlight of the restaurant. How many times have you had good food and then had it ruined by the waitress or waiter? Here you get great wait staff and the food is good too. I'm not sure the food would be as good if the wait staff was not as great as they are. Additionally the time alone with my wife on the way down is priceless. Get in your car, drive to Red Bluff and enjoy a fine diner breakfast lunch or dinner. MANGA!!!! read more

So this was a place we frequented. Sometimes 2x a week depending on what was happening with our schedule. Plus whenever we have family in town or go out with friends we go here. Waiters and waitresses (for the most part) are amazing!! Over time things have become more expensive, smaller portions and now they have decided you can only have one refill. This may not seem like a big deal to most people but to us it is. Now myself I do not drink a lot when we are out but my husband works HVAC. He is used to drinking tea and water A LOT!!! He drinks everything served to him, never leaving any waste. Recently we were told after 1 refill that we would have to be charged for a second drink. So the owner, when approached concerning the change in policy of only allowing 1 refill to the outrageously priced drink of $3.99 , stated that there has been "A" person drinking 4-5 glasses and even asking for a to go drink. Heaven forbid!!! He even stated it is taking advantage of them as owners. What a joke. We pay, at minimum, $14-$15 a meal per person. When they serve you a drink they fill the glass with ice which means as far as actually liquid you maybe get 1/2 - 3/4 cup in a large glass. Now tea is cheap, but here is salt added to injury, coffee is unlimited refills!!! Coffee and flavored creamer are much more expensive than tea! How appreciative are you of your customers if you have an issue over a person or two out of all your customers who drinks 4-5 glasses of tea or soda. It isn't being wasted. Sadly we finding a better local establishment to frequent and give our money to. read more

We were passing by from our camping trip and some of us were hungry while some just wanted some dessert. The service here was great. Friendly and fast. Their french fries and ranch was really tasty. I got french dip with French fries and it really hit the spot. My wife went straight for the dessert and she got chocolate cake. They had something for everyone. Kids got ice cream. My son got oat meal. My 8 year old got mini hot dogs with fruit. It really was a weird mix of food that we ordered but we were glad that we were able to order something from the breakfast menu and something from the lunch menu. This way we did not have to stop by to multiple locations. That's pretty important for us because there is 6 of us who want different things. read more

Been here once, long before the pandemic. Would never go to a place like this during a pandemic, because I know places like this take absolutely no precautions and don't care about the health of anybody. We never went back because the baked potato I ordered tasted like kitty litter. Like the potato itself had been stored in Kitty litter. Not used Kitty litter lol just Kitty litter. It was the most bizarre tasting baked potato I've ever had and I have them a lot! It takes a very special place to screw up a baked potato, but they somehow managed to. I've never had a weird tasting bake potato in all my life and I'm 44 years old and have eaten them at least 5 times a year almost all my life. The Burger had no flavor at all. My son couldn't finish it. It tasted like they had never discovered the existence of salt or any seasoning. The only salvageable food were the fried green beans which my son loved. The staff was very nice, just nothing worth going back for read more

The Rockin R Restaurant is great! My parents and their friends meet up monthly for breakfast and are well cared for. Our dining experiences have been great! We've had the Cobb Salad a few times and its loaded with everything. The staff is very efficient and friendly.I highly recommend dining at the Rockin R Restaurant! read more

We stayed at the Best Western and decided to eat here since it right next door. The atmosphere was so inviting and the staff was awesome! Very nice, and curtious. Food was EXCELLENT!! Extremely flavorful!! My son had pancakes (I don't like pancakes) but I had to try them, and OMG!!! They were delicious! The best I've ever tasted! If you are ever in the area, we HIGHLY recommend this place! You won't be disappointed! read more

Just passing through and stumbled across this little gem. Excellent food with even better service!! A must!!

Great service, happy, friendly waitresses and good food! I had the beef noodle soup and chef salad. I devoured my soup and started on my salad but could not finish because its REALLY big! Lol My hubby had the potatoe stack and said it was really good. The interior is decorated in a western theme and is clean. We will definitely be eating here again. read more

Horrible service, went in for lunch. Got our drinks, placed our order, 45 minutes later we finally got our meal. During that time I got my soda refilled once, the second time when the waitress finally came to refill my soda she pushed a glass of water towards me and said, "you could drink some water too." Add to that a chili burger that was cooked until it was about shoe leather and tasteless and the whole experience was horrible. If I could give less than a star I would. Don't waste your time or money here. read more

One of the worst experience ever had. After 70 minutes waiting for the food at lunch, we finally left. No explanation for the delay. I offered to pay for our tea drinks but they said it was okay. Folks were nice but they obviously had some sort of kitchen problem. read more

Overall experience was good. We came for breakfast, biscuits were a bit dry but the gravy was delicious. Steak, potatoes...all good. We only had an issue with one of our plates. Corned beef and egg plate, my husband added an EXTRA egg, so 3 eggs total. When his plate came out it only came out with 2 eggs, or so it seemed, it was the same amount as what I had on my plate (which was 2 eggs) so we asked the waitress if he got his extra egg and she said yes and added that the restaurant has "small eggs." Ummm...what? Ok. He got 3 tiny eggs while I had 2 normal ones I guess. I'm hoping she was being funny. read more

Staying next door at the Best Western and this place came HIGHLY recommended. Well, it did NOT disappoint. The fish & chips were absolutely awesome...best I've had in a long time. My colleagues had a various assortment of the local cuisine including fried pickles & fried green beans for an appetizer. Bottom line...AWESOME food, AWESOME staff and AWESOME prices as well. Going for breakfast in the morning...will take the Real McCoy over powdered hotel breakfast eggs and rubber sausages. And yes, we returned for breakfast...going again tomorrow...its that good. read more

Food was ok. You get what you pay for. The service was TERRIBLE! We were treated like we were an imposition. First time I've not left a tip in my life. I understand long waits etc during busy times but please don't treat me like you're doing me a favor by waiting on me. We took out of town guests there for breakfast. I was so embarrassed. We won't go back. Such a shame, I love promoting small local businesses. read more

I went there Friday night, had the prime rib. It was excellent. Enjoyed the claw chowder soup, the Sierra Nevada pale ale, and the unusual bowl of beans. I thought the service was friendly, prompt and unobtrusive. Thankfully the c&w music was quiet. I'd return anytime. My only criticism would be that I should have asked for the butter and sour cream for the baked potato on the side so I could have dressed it myself. That's my fault, not the restaraunts. read more

Good food. Good service. Patient with my kiddos. Overall great place. Good family atmosphere.

Excellent diner with some really unique and yummy food! The wait staff is super pleasant and I love a place that respects people and their Rights! We go back regularly! read more

I was a bit worried to meet family here based on the other reviews. It was their choice to meet here. I had a ham and cheese omelet everyone else had a burger. I thought the food was really good. The service was excellent. We were pleasantly surprised. read more

The food was amazing!! I had a mushroom burger and Tater Tots My husband had a cheeseburger and fries Both burgers had that juicy flame broiled taste!! My tater tots were cooked perfectly crispy and delicious! My daughter shared a waffle with fruit and they enjoyed. The service was extremely fast and friendly!! We will be back next time we are in town!! read more

Outdated. Overrated. Overpriced. Ordered their roast beef w/au jus, fries and fruit. DH ordered a burger of sorts w/fries. Both were flavorless. My roast beef sandwich was hard... as in day-old sold in the bk of the supermarket 50% off clearance let's get rid of it NOW hard. The presentation was chaos. McDonald's does a btr job during a summertime lunch rush in the drive-thru! DH & I hd to lol whn his burger arrived...5-10 mins AFTER my meal...as it looked as tho someone literally pounded his burger AND bun into a knuckle sandwhich! There were 3 other couples in the entire restaurant and yt we had to request beverage refills several times. We were downing mad water - it was after all summertime. I cannot say I'll be returning anytime soon. read more

Amazing breakfast!! A must-stop place on your road trip. Great service, simple and adorable atmosphere, and fantastic food. I'd leave a picture but there's no food left on my plate. Thanks, Rockin R for a delightful experience this morning. read more

That lil bumpy face breezy was thick as pho The wheat toast was good The gravy was watery Chicken fried steak was more like a big chicken nugget from Jack in the crack Won't return read more

I ate here for the first time while visiting family in Red Bluff, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food and service was. My boyfriend and I arrived before the rest of our party, and the waitress made sure to ask others walking in whether they were meeting people so she could steer them our way. I ordered the chicken fried steak and eggs, and it was amazing! The portions are huge and well worth the price. I will definitely eat here again next time I'm in town. read more

Came in for the first time today. We were seated right away and our drinks arrived quickly. Then it was all down hill. It took a while for the waitress to get our order. Not a big deal except she was abrupt. I said hello and she said what's your order. Is it that difficult to say hello back? As soon as she had our order she walked away. No "thank you" no anything. The wait time was insanely long! Okay we can deal with that specially knowing that they were making the food fresh but wow 30 minutes is a bit long. The food was good but nothing spectacular. Will we go back? Probably not. Friendly service goes a long way and this place missed the mark. read more

The best eggs Benedict I have ever had. Consistent as I continue to get it Everytime!! Coffee is good too! Yummo. I wanna go back right now.

Wow...The food, service, price and portions..excellent. The place is cozy and no funny smells. It's clean, and just am overall great eating experience. read more

The food was great. We stayed at the hotel near by and decided to stop in for dinner. We all order omelets and they were some of the best ones we ever had. Staff was super friendly, and we got all of you food very fast. Lots of different options, generous amount of food, and well priced. read more

Went here on Saturday I thought the fried chicken was good, but the fish and chips are to die for! So delicious the best I've ever had! My husband eats a lot and he's always satisfied with how humongous the portions are. The service is always on point my kids were obnoxious and our server gave them fruit while we waited for our food. So thoughtful! read more

Popped in here for breakfast. The service was average but nobody that worked there seemed to be to happy. I ordered eggs over medium and they were barely cooked. Like clear and runny. All I ate was the toast. Wish I went to Denny's down the street. read more

Just as good as "Home Cooking" gets...From the Prime Rib just as I ordered it, to the Baked Potato, Green Beans cooked with bacon and onions, to the surprisingly good cup of Ranch Beans...And to top it off, Garlic Toast :) The service was great, order came out within 15 minutes of ordering, and our food was warm...Very pleased, and will be back!! read more

Wait staff are phenomenal. Went for our first time here this past Saturday and I will be back! The wait staff was attentive and always had our drinks full without having to ask.
