Peter Chu's Skyroom

The table seating near the bar is most comfortable and the service was friendly. Family seating in the regular dining area has the view outside. The chef came out to greet us & she was sweet, letting us know how the food was prepared. All lobster dishes are fried yet glistening with sauce. The menu mostly consists of prawns in various ways.

Anniversary dinner choice and it didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed the dinner for 2, including the unique fresh corn soup ( must try ) pot stickers, egg rolls / shrimp, general Tao’s Chicken. Everything was outstanding and plenty of leftovers to share for lunch today. Service was also great. I also have to recommend the lemon drop cocktail. The quality of fresh ingredients exceeded my expectations. Thank you!

At the airport in Redding California The egg rolls And the cream cheese wontons are very good And we'll post more later Remember to say Grace And being Thanksgiving for every meal

I dont often write reviews unless the place is beyond exceptional. I have been coming here since I was a little kid I have seen a lot of changes to this place with staff menu items all of that. As I sit here tonight and enjoy the appetizers I have before dinner I notice the staff, I notice the room. This place is packed yet the servers are still moving around making sure everyone is tended too the appetizers came out piping hot fresh off the stove the soup fresh and hot to perfection. This place is, has always been and will always be the best Chinese food in northern California well done to the staff at this fine establishment.

Crew stopped in on a long sit and everybody told us we needed to try it. I was beyond amazed. Their lunch specials are so much food for a great price! Their egg drop soup was the best I've ever had!!

It has been a long time since I've been to Peter chu's. I have Personaly.I known Peter since opened up the restaurant. When he sold it I wasn't for sure about the new owners. If they changed food. The word around town was, it had changed. It wasn't the same. Being stubborn I just said to my self and other fine restaurant gone. Well tonight I told the wife let's try it. It has been a long time, it wasn't about the price, it was about the quality of the food. I drove from Bell vista not knowing what to expect. The service was outstanding. Got my order, drove back home, then came the test. Did I just loose $$ or was the quality there. Well All the food we ordered was wonderful. Great taste, there was nothing left, thank you for keeping the fine standers of Peters quality. We will be back. To anyone who reads my post, you will not be disappointed, & money well spent on fine dining,

We had ordered take out from Peter Chu’s Skyroom inside the Redding Airport Terminal and liked the food. On a nice Saturday evening we decided to dine in at Peter Chu’s. Experience the atmosphere and see other dishes passing by 😉 We arrived around 6PM. They were pretty busy with both diners and take out. They told us approx. 15 min wait. We decided to go into the bar area and have a drink while waiting. John, the fine, comical and friendly bartender took our drinks order. We asked if we could sit at one of the tables in the bar area. He said, sure I’ll bring menus. We sat at a nice table and started to peruse the menu. In the mean time, a table of 4 young men were having a good time. A few minutes later, John rolled out a cart loaded with 2 big appetizer dishes. A PuPu platter complete with small grill complete with flames!!! The other app was a large boat filled with small tasty morsels. The gents seemed to enjoy it! As my wife and I were trying to decide what to order, one of the young men (these guys were around 30) left the table and as he passed ours, I asked him how the appetizers were. He told us definitely get the Pu Pu Platter. Hmm, did look good. And, we like leftovers the next day (LOL) My wife said she wanted the Sizzling Happy Family. Me, Im flexible. I noticed that one of the Gourmet Dinners (for 2 in our case) had the Pu Pu platter, Sizzling Happy Family, a deep fried Garlic lobster dish, soup and rice. Score!!!! We ordered it and waited anxiously. The Pu Pu platter arrived first. Wow, lots of tasty appetizers all in one spot. The Teriyaki beef grilling over a flame was sweet and rich. The Paper Wrapped Chicken (our first time) was moist and delicious. The egg rolls and Fried Prawns were also excellent. IMHO, the BBQ Pork was the star. Sweet, nice flavor from the spices and perfectly cooked. The Fried Won Ton - well, avoid as we did. Too much good food to waste on them. We didn’t finish it - far too much for 2 people - so John brought us our first of a few take out boxes. Highly recommend it!!! The next course arrived - House Special Won Ton Soup. John brought a single large bowl and then divided it into our own soup bowl. I must say, Im usually underwhelmed by Won Ton soup - but this one had a mild chicken broth, lots of chicken and prawns and vegetables. Im sure the broth was homemade. It was much too rich in flavor with no overwhelming saltiness. It was simply spot on. Whew, we were already a bit full with 2 more dishes to go… John rolls out another cart with the classic red hot cast iron plate and proceeds to slowly pour the Happy Family onto it. There was so much sizzling and steam - I couldn’t see John!!! Placed the steaming and still sizzling plate in front of us along with a platter mounded with golden morsels of battered/deep fried lobster in a mellow lobster sauce. The Sizzling Happy Family we delicious. Lots of meats - beef, tons of scallops, prawns. And, nice assortment of vegetables - water chestnuts, snow peas, broccoli etc. The sauce complemented the dish - never overpowering. The Garlic Lobster was very good. Im not a big fan of battered and fried food, but every bite has some reasonable amount of lobster. Again, the garlic sauce was there - just not "in your face". Nicely done. Needless to say, we skipped dessert and took home lots of leftovers. And, we were very full, but very happy. Can’t wait to go back!
