Deja Vu - Redding

I have dined at this place many times and they never get my order correct. The history of the building as one of Redding's historic treasures gives this place an edge, and the food is good, but the bad service and the incorrect orders, or bad handling of food once it leaves the kitchen, are all examples of bad management. Many people make comment about the service and they do nothing to address the bad service or incorrect orders. It is a nice building to dine in, but the service makes it an absolute fail. Save your money and go somewhere else, but step in to look at the architecture and soak up some history. I try to be nice and mention the history of the building, I try to be fair and mention the food as good in taste, and I am honest when I report about the lousy service, but they report back slanderous accusations like I was aggressive. Yes after being asked to leave I left. My son is still young and he enjoys the atmosphere of the place but he no longer desires to visit here either. Bad management exampled below.

Breakfast dine in, Sep 26, 2022. Everything was outstanding, from the decor, to the server, to the coffee to the meal! My boyfriend was served a birthday cinnamon bun which had the perfect cream cheese frosting; not cloyingly sweet and perfectly cheesy! I had a 20oz Mount Whitney coffee which was absolutely superb. I also ordered the Deja scramble. Portion sizes were fantastic, the meal was hot, beautiful and delicious. My boyfriend had the two-egg combo with bacon. The bacon was thick and PERFECTLY cooked! All of this was served by Jamie O., who was a delightful sweetheart that made us feel right at home, checked on us an appropriate amount of times, and delivered our check appropriately but with no rush. It was an outstanding breakfast experience and I am looking forward to dining here again! Kudos to the management staff for a great restaurant! Thank you all!

Good food, fantastic atmosphere, nice location. This place is such a gem. The coffee is wonderful and there is a very adorable cafe attached. The boysenberry syrup is tasty.

Sometimes the wait is long but the food is so worth it! Everytime we have been here, the food, whether breakfast or lunch has been amazing! The wait staff is always great but this time we had Heather. She is the best waitress we have ever had in our many years of dining out. Heather went the extra mile to make our visit more than a meal, it was a dining experience! If there were more than 5 stars we would give them more!

The ambience is quaint with high backed booths giving privacy but sacrifices some of the grand openness of the old building. The food was wonderful and hearty. This is not the place for light fair. You will leave full and satisfied well past lunch. The staff were a bit frazzled and some mistakes were made with orders but they were quickly and politely corrected to everyone's satisfaction. We chalked it up to the rush and suspect it was the exception instead of the rule. We left Feeling happy with our experience.
